Buenavista

"Such a perfect experience. I was lucky to sneak in between reservations with my group. The owner/manager is so much fun he made the whole experience memorable. The service was expert, we stayed awhile and they didn’t miss a beat the entire time. The food was brilliant."

"The best meal we have had in NYC!! Love this place!!! Elvis and his team was Amazing!!!! This is a mist go in the city! A plus… Top notch!!!"

"This is a hidden gem in NYC. I loved the laid-back atmosphere and some of the best food in the area. We had a party of 5 and had the rib eye, the seared duck, and the seafood medley. The meat and the sauces were outstanding. The seafood sat on top of a delicious lobster broth, and the grilled octopus was out of this world. Don't forget to have the churros or the flan after the main dishes, you will be very delighted."

"This place was absolutely amazing From the moment we walked it we met the manager who made us feel very welcomed. Our waitress was Andrea and omg!!!!! She gave us amazing recommendations for food and played rock paper scissors with my husband to help him decide which of their best food to have!! Now the food.....I honestly have no words. Usually when my husband and I travel we taste each other's choices, I almost didn't let him have any of my porkchop. EVERY. SINGLE. BITE! Was precious. Definitely try this place out if you are near. The Tres Leches was divine too."

"I recently had the pleasure of dining at Buenavista restaurant in NY Midtown, and I must say it was a delightful experience. This Latin fusion restaurant concept takes you on a culinary journey through Central America to South America and the Caribbean, offering a unique blend of flavors and interpretations of Latin cuisine. What sets Buenavista apart is its innovative approach to Latin dishes. Rather than serving typical plates, they mix and match ideas from various Latin cuisines, creating delightful interpretations. The result is a menu that surprises and delights the taste buds. Though not fully gourmet, Buenavista doesn't compromise on flavor or presentation. The portions are generous, making it a satisfying dining experience for those looking to enjoy a hearty meal while still relishing the high-end restaurant ambiance. The standout of the evening was Elvis, the manager hailing from Matanzas, Cuba. His service and attentiveness were exceptional. He took the time to introduce himself and explain the concept behind the restaurant, making us feel welcome and appreciated as guests. The restaurant's ambiance was also worth mentioning - great music and vibrant vibes added to the overall enjoyment of the evening. In conclusion, I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience at Buenavista restaurant. The fusion of Latin flavors, along with the warm hospitality of Elvis and the lively ambiance, made it a memorable evening. Whether you're a fan of Latin cuisine or just looking for a unique dining experience, Buenavista is a must-visit in NY Midtown."
