Found this gem of a place for steaks by a strong recommendation from a group of friends who know the cook, "Chef Terrence" personally. They have been raving about his food. I couldn't wait to try out each of his preparations and to my delight everything I've tried has been truly delicious. I've been very lucky to enjoy these Excellent steaks by Chef Terrence. if your all about tenderness, flavour n perfection then this place is for you. I've turned a big fan of chef Terrence's expertise in preparing flavourful meats to match your individual preferences. The Tender steaks that melt in the mouth are far better than what I've eaten at seasoned restaurants. Chef Terrence is an expert n is very skilled. He makes tender, juicy, flavourful cooked to perfection steaks that are never chewy n easily melt in the mouth. The roasted chicken, pork chops, pork ribs, chicken wings,Sri Lankan stew, vindaloo, shepherd's pie are all delicious must try dishes here. what I also love is that the side dishes really elevate the dinner to a memorable culinary experience by complementing the main dish. The roasted potatoes or the classic mashed potatoes, creamed spinach, traditional brown sauce, n roasted vegetables are truly exotic, they add more flavour and texture. The brown sauce is made of chicken bones like a traditional broth in condensed form. it's so rich and delicious. I always request for a double serving as I cannot stop at one, that's how good it is. This is a great place for all carnivores. This spacious , neat , no fuss place with great music on the quiet lane leading to vagator beach is surprisingly a delicious dig for meats and hands down the best place for steak. Don't miss it. Ask for Chef Terrence. Thank me later.

Vida Bela in Vagator offers a delicious, affordable experience with flavorful dishes and a relaxing vibe. We started with the Mini Corn, Cucumber, and Bean Salad, which was fresh and light, perfect for starting off the meal. The Prawn Butter Garlic was a highlight—juicy prawns cooked perfectly in a rich, buttery sauce that was hard to resist. The Grilled Chicken Steak, served with creamy mashed potatoes and veggies, was satisfying and cooked to perfection. For something unique, the Paneer Mexican Rice Bowl offered a fusion twist, with bold flavors that paired surprisingly well with the paneer. Each dish was packed with flavor and made with fresh ingredients, making Vida Bela a great spot for an enjoyable meal in Vagator.

I have visited Vida Bela not once but several times & it's my favourite restaurant. I have ordered various dishes & I must say not 1 dish disappointed me...the food is delicious, the staff is very professional, the ambience is amazing.... They do have live music on somedays & it's all age group friendly. It's a must visit.....highly recommend it.

The food here was AMAZING. Both Veg and Non veg options were available and very good. The cocktails were unique and fun. My favourite was the Hummus Salad Sandwich and the Oink Oink Cuban Sandwich. The service was also great, the staff was friendly and helpful.

A newly opened culinary experience in the heart of Vagator. Chef Aloo greeted us made us feel comfortable and was honest about the time the food would take. We appreciated that! We ordered the specials of the day and started with the tomato roasted soup which was a solid 5/5. We also ordered a pork based dish which was excellent! We ordered chicken cafreal which was absolutely fantastic. The flavours were unique yet familiar. Would recommend this place to anyone who are curious eaters and enjoy fresh ingredients and unique flavours

so basically they hire people who don't understand what is being communicated.. even after being told we will be eating there only he rudely asked us to park our vehicle somewhere else .. no wonder this place has such low reviews.. not recommended for sheer non serious behaviour towards patrons. . maybe the owner was involved in this too.. not visiting again. good luck.
