Asi Es La Vida

Asi Es La Vida has been Phoenix's premier upscale Mexican restaurant since 1992, offering authentic Mexican cuisine rooted in generations of culinary tradition. Founded by Moises Treves, who began his journey in southern Mexico's kitchens in the 1970s, our restaurant embodies the artistry of handcrafted dishes made with fresh, quality ingredients. Under Irving Rodriguez's ownership since 2007, we've maintained our commitment to authenticity while evolving our vibrant atmosphere that celebrates Mexican culture through art and architecture. Our carefully curated menu balances classic recipes with daily chef specials, ensuring consistency and excellence in every dish. Located in a historic Phoenix building transformed from a private home to a culinary destination, we create memorable dining experiences through both our food and our warm, family-driven service.

The restaurant's bold fuchsia exterior and rotating art collection, including reproductions of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera masterpieces, make us a distinctive community landmark. We specialize in private events and group dining, combining exceptional Mexican flavors with personalized hospitality. Our limited menu ensures quality control while allowing guests to experience the depth of Mexican culinary traditions. With over three decades of service, we remain dedicated to preserving the authenticity that earned us recognition as Phoenix's top Mexican dining destination. Our team's deep connection to Mexican heritage shines through in every aspect of our operation, from kitchen to dining room.
