My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed dining at Vida for my birthday dinner. Not a single thing we didn’t like. Our waiter, Tim, was super personable, took his time explaining the menu items to us, and even shared little stories about his life and the restaurant itself. It is a great spot for special occasions. Expect to spend a pretty penny, but the food and cocktails are to die for and the ambiance is stellar. No deafening noise or music drowning out conversations. The four course option was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. One of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had.

This is touted as one of the best if not the best restaurant in Indy. Reservations backed up for months would seem to align with this statement. We love Cunningham Group and have never been disappointed. Provision has been our #1 Indy spot for a few years now, and only other Cunningham restaurants have come even close… until now. You know you’re dining at a great establishment when every detail is meticulously thought out. We did the 4 course meal, and we each chose different items. And from the cauliflower to the scallop to the sablefish to the side breads, everything was better than anything you’ve had anywhere else. I typically gag at the smell of brusselsprouts, yet I ate and enjoyed the sprouts served with the ribeye. The scallop and sablefish were like butter, cooked to perfection, and I don’t even know how they cooked the ribeye so perfectly. To top it off, Thomas was fantastic in tips and knowledge and also conversation. We need to visit Provision again soon just to compare, but we will be back to Vida many times.

It was a very different experience than I expected. A friend of mine recommended it and even though it’s waaaay outside my price range I enjoyed the atmosphere, the food, hospitality from the bartenders and the hostess I will likely go back.

Our foodie group has always recommended, Vida. Tonight, we went. First of all, this place is gorgeous! The ambience is amazing. Elegant, modern, sleek, but inviting. The tasting menu was awesome! My wife ordered different things and shared the dishes. The chef gave us amazing surprise pastries right at the beginning. Delicious! Our first course was Bluefin Tuna and Caramelized Cauliflower. Delicious! Second course was Buttermilk Fried Chicken Thigh and Scallop. This was incredible! Third course was Black Angus Ribeye and Lamb Loin! Wow! There’s no words for how awesome this was. I love lamb and this was so delicious! Look, the last course was desert but this shouldn’t be called desert. This was eatable art! Absolutely delectable! You MUST try the Ricotta Donuts! And the Meyer Lemon was so light and refreshing. Delicious! The main star of this restaurant was the staff. Daniel was our server and he is so friendly and knowledgeable. He made this visit memorable. We also spoke to Chef Thomas Melvin and because of my allergies, he helped me enjoy dining here without any fear of cross contamination. Highly recommended, worth every cent!

We loved our dinner at Vida. The service was personalized and intentional – we were celebrating a couple of different life events and felt welcomed as soon as we walked in. We had a dietary restriction and the chef and team were fantastic at accommodating for it. All of the drink pairings were perfect. Great atmosphere. And the food! The food was delicious; we opted for the four course offerings and enjoyed trying a variety of dishes. We could taste the quality of the ingredients and admired the skilled preparation of the food. We will absolutely be back.

TOP FAVORITE restaurant in Indy for a date night or celebrating any occasion. My all time favorite dish is the FOIE GRAS. The RICOTTA DOUGHNUTS are also a top favorite. We always plan a full night dedicated to enjoying each dish with a wine pairing. The experience is worth the time and money. The quality you are receiving is worth the higher end price. Plan an evening and enjoy.

The place is super cozy. You immediately feel you are going to have a good time when you walk through the door. Food is very refined with dishes you don’t get everyday (fois Gras, duck,etc…) and you get great advice when choosing the wine that would match best with your food.

We came to Vida to celebrate our anniversary; the reservation times available were 9:00 and later, so we almost opted out, but I am so glad we didn’t. It was one of the absolute best dining experiences of our lives. From amuse bouché to dessert, each course kept getting more and more delicious, and our cocktails were amazing. Our server, Thomas, was extremely knowledgeable about the menu, guided us expertly and his excitement about the food he was serving elevated our own. He made it feel like we were dining with a friend. We already can’t wait to come back!
