" I'm a big fan of Mexican food, and I was excited to eat at this restaurant. The food was decent, but I didn't find it to be as authentic as I had hoped. The service was okay, but we felt rushed during our meal. I might give them another try since I've heard great things from others. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! We visited Viva Mexico for dinner and everything was delightful. The tacos had a genuine taste, very reminiscent of what I experienced in Mexico. We couldn't get enough of the chips and guac either! The ambiance was lively, filled with colorful decorations and music, making it a great family dining spot. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)
