" We visited VIVA for dinner on a busy Friday night, and while the place was packed, we were seated right away. I ordered the pork tacos, which were flavorful but not as spicy as I prefer. However, our server was excellent and took great care of us. The ambiance was vibrant, but expect a little wait during peak hours. Overall, a pleasant dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you enjoy spicy food, make sure to try the salsa at VIVA—it packs a punch! I had the chicken tacos, and they were bursting with flavor. The service was quick, and I left feeling satisfied with my meal, albeit a bit spicy! Overall, a great dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)
