Our PTA had Costa Vida in Daybreak cater two different times for our teachers and staff this year. They were amazing and made the PTA look good. Jackson, who was over the catering, was so easy to work with and helped me feel less stress feeding so many at once.

My first time to this location—staff was super friendly, everything was fresh and my order was exactly right. Time in and out was quick too.Edit: came again to super friendly service and great quality of food. Will be back! Food was fast for a large group of us.

I want to like Costa Vida but this is my second time there and I just really am not impressed unfortunately. I went through the drive thru to get a salad and thought I heard the price being $2 more than the sign said. When I got up to ask, they said they raised their price for a regular salad from $10 to $12.. but don’t have that listed on the sign? I only ordered a regular salad because of the $1 difference in price from the small. I wouldn’t have if I knew it was $12. I asked if I could switch it and they said no. I feel cheated now and I don’t think it should’ve been that way. I don’t think I’ll ever be going back.

Great staff but not the best food. I would recommend going to Cafe Rio or a different burrito chain.Food: the food was sadly disappointing. It just didn’t have much flavor and it was soaked in the sauce. The burrito size was average, not the 1.8 lbs advertised. I don’t mind that, but I do Mind when the flavor isn’t great. The burrito had to be eaten with a fork because it was so soaked.Price: the price was on par with the cafe Rio and other burrito places. I’d say it’s more overpriced because of the valueDrive through experience: took a long time to get through the drive through. Not very efficient. The menu I think should be redesigned for a more drive through friendly manner.

Every time I’ve tried to order at this location, they’ve been very stingy on the lettuce and pico, even after I’ve paid for extra. Just ordered a smothered burrito with extra lettuce and pico and got what looks like…soup? With a few strips of lettuce thrown in the mix and a few chunks of tomatoes. On the other hand I once ordered a chicken salad and received a bowl of lettuce and no chicken. If you’re out of something, just say so ?

Fast and friendly service, even during lunch hours. Everything was super fresh and tasted amazing! We love this Costa Vida location.

The drive thru line here can take a little while. The person on the other side of the speaker may be nice, but that doesn't mean you're going to get the correct order when you drive away... as in convenient as it may be to go inside, sometimes it's worth it.

The food was seasoned and tasteful, but the chicken quesadillas for the kids meal and the carne asada for the nachos were a bit overcooked. They also could add a bit more rice and beans to the kids meals, bit I understand there are utensils for measuring. I suggest getting utensils a tad bit larger in that case. As for the customer service, the staff working the night we went through the drive thru were very pleasant.

The pork nachos were great! Employees were nice and fun atmosphere!
