Best Tapas Restaurants in Vinings

We always enjoy dining at SOHO. The food is excellently prepared and the service is wonderful. The regular menu has a range of choices including meat, fish, and pasta. Our waiter was attentive without being intrusive, which we always appreciate. This is definitely a place to try in Vinings!

We chose this place for our anniversary dinner, and we’re glad we did! The atmosphere was lovely, and the service was outstanding. Our server was incredibly attentive and made sure everything was perfect throughout the evening. For our meal, we ordered the flatbread, burger, and lamb, and all three dishes were excellent. The flatbread was flavorful and perfectly prepared, and the lamb was the star of the night—my wife absolutely loved it. The burger, while cooked more on the well-done side than the medium we ordered, still had such great flavor that it made up for the doneness. We indulged in three desserts: the Tiramisu, Oreo Cheesecake, and Cremoso de Chocolate. This was the only part of the meal that didn’t fully shine. The Tiramisu was good overall, but there was so much cocoa powder on top that we both found ourselves coughing on the first bite—it required some strategic eating. The Oreo Cheesecake was the standout, though it didn’t have the traditional cheesecake consistency. The Cremoso de Chocolate was a bit underwhelming flavor-wise, but in fairness, it might just be meant to be more subtle. Overall, it was a fantastic evening with mostly excellent food, a few minor critiques, and exceptional service. We’ll definitely be back for another special occasion!

Food was excellent. I had mentioned birthday celebrations with my reservation but nothing was ever acknowledged regarding the birthdays. A cool vibe in the restaurant. Would definitely go back as i love the tapas style dining!

"First time dining at Buena Vida and it was an excellent experience! The restaurant is lovely with a great atmosphere, but not stuffy. The food was delicious (wonderful paella); our server Chloe was the best, answering all our questions and making great menu suggestions. We were there to celebrate a birthday and the manager on duty, Ivana sent us a round of champagne for the occasion; very classy! I highly recommend Buena Vida and will be back."

The service was fantastic, the ambience was great, and the food and drinks were top notch! This is a fantastic place for an upscale hang or an intimate celebration.
