Selki A:
Very impressed! We tried Port Vida with a large party that included kids. I absolutely loved my tacos, refried beans and the amazing rice (they offer Mexican or Poblano)...

Love Port Vida! The margaritas are fab and come at a great cost (something that's been harder and harder to come by in Newburyport). And the birria tacos... oh my god. A must try!
