" As a long-time fan of authentic Mexican cuisine, I have to say that Viva Birria knocked my socks off! Their birria tacos were the best I've had outside of Mexico. The flavor was just perfect — juicy and bursting with spices. Plus, the dipping sauce was a game changer! The only downside was the wait time, but it’s worth it. I will definitely be coming back and bringing my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came in on a rainy day and was greeted with the coziest atmosphere! Their chicken mole taco blew my mind; it had the perfect mix of spices and textures. I appreciated that the ingredients felt authentically Mexican. However, the portion was slightly smaller than expected for the price. Overall, a delightful experience; I would return without a doubt. " (*Curated Review*)

" Viva Birria has quickly become one of my top spots in NYC! The tacos were not only fresh, but the flavor combinations were unlike anything I've had elsewhere. The environment is super chill and the staff couldn't be friendlier. My only request is to add a few more vegetarian options on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was the first time trying birria tacos, and I couldn't have asked for a better introduction! The flavors were incredibly rich, and the meat was so tender—it just melted in my mouth. The staff was welcoming and made me feel right at home. I particularly appreciated the nice outdoor seating area which is perfect on a warm day. If you’re in NYC, don’t miss this place! Absolutely worth every penny. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely fantastic! I’ve tasted good tacos but these are mind-blowing! The combination of flavors brought me back to my childhood. Everything is made fresh, and the service here is exemplary—so warm and inviting. The only trouble I encountered was deciding what to order because everything sounded so good! I’ve already decided to return on my next NYC visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Viva Birria on my trip to NYC and it turned out to be a fantastic find! The atmosphere is casual and laid-back, perfect after a long day of exploring. I got the chicken mole tacos which were delicious, but I wish they were a bit spicier. My only complaint was the outdoor seating—it can get a little chilly at night. Overall, a solid spot with friendly service and great food! " (*Curated Review*)
