Costa Vida Nutrition Calculator 2026

Costa Vida Nutrition Calculator: Nutrition Overview

Costa Vida's signature sweet pork is delicious and deceptive — a smothered sweet pork burrito is about 1,100 calories before chips. Use this calculator to see what smothering, queso and horchata each add.

Across the Costa Vida items in this calculator, a single item runs from 160 calories (Black Beans (Side)) to 1250 calories (Chicken Nachos (Large)). Sodium is the number most people miss: Chicken Nachos (Large) alone carries 2380mg, over a third of the 2,300mg daily reference. Treat the figures here as planning estimates based on publicly available published nutrition data — exact values vary by location and preparation.

Calories at Costa Vida: Where They Come From

Most Costa Vida orders are combinations, so the total is decided by two or three choices rather than one. The popular builds below show the pattern: the same visit can land near 720 calories or pass 1790, and the difference is almost always a side, a sauce or a size — not the main item.

Costa Vida Nutrition Calculator: How It Works

Pick one item from each category dropdown — the same way you would build the order at the counter — then adjust portions (Half, Regular, Extra, Double) in the summary panel. Every item carries its own per-serving calories, protein, carbs, fat, fiber, sugar and sodium, and the panel adds them live with percent daily values based on a 2,000-calorie day.

Why a Static Nutrition Chart Falls Short

• ✓ Portions differ — a chart lists one standard serving, but real orders are doubled, shared and customised.
• ✓ Combinations add up — the chart prices items one by one; your meal is the sum, and the sum is what matters.
• ✓ Swaps are invisible — a chart cannot show what changes when you trade one item for another.
• ✓ Sauces, cheeses and extras stack quietly on top of the headline item.
• ✓ Menus change — an interactive calculator can be updated item by item as published data changes.

Costa Vida Macros: Protein, Carbs & Fat

Protein is where Costa Vida orders differ most: Chicken Nachos (Large) leads the menu at 52g of protein for 1250 calories. Carbs concentrate in breads, wraps, fries and sweet drinks, while fat concentrates in cheese, creamy sauces and fried items — the summary panel separates all three so you can see which lever your order is actually pulling.

Costa Vida Protein Guide

Rank your options by protein per calorie, not protein alone. Chicken Nachos (Large) is the standout at 52g of protein. Setting any protein item to a Double portion in the calculator doubles its protein and its calories together — the honest way to model a bigger appetite.
