Viva Mexico

Another great meal at viva Mexico. The staff are charming and very inviting. If you love Mexican food this is the place to go. It all tastes so fresh and vibrant!

Great authentic Mexican food with generous servings. The staff was very friendly and the place had a great atmosphere. Make sure to book first as it can get pretty crowded. Would definitely go back!

Atmosphere was great and the food was good. Staff very friendly and helpful and the burritos were very tasty. Definitely recommend and I'll definitely go back

It was fine overall, food was ok,but service was not great. Waitresses were not very nice. Not once came to check how everything was for us.

Restaurant had a very pleasant atmosphere with good quality food. Service very good. Staff very polite and friendly. Would recommend to all that enjoy Mexican food.

Great food and Mexican decoration. But the waitresses thought we were tourists and made us believe that service wasn't included so that we pay more tips.

Lovely dinner, we have been fairly regularly after discovering the restaurant last year. Back again for my birthday after a few months away and the food was amazing and service fantastic as always.

Restaurant was extremely busy when we arrived but that didn't affect the service at all. As always the food was excellent. Will be back soon.

Authentic Mexican food, generous portions, reasonably priced and above all friendly staff who provide efficient service with a smie! Great evening! Will definitely visit again!

Absolutely exceptional service, staff were very at tentative, would recommend this to others. Absolutely faultless, exceptional value for money, has a lovely ambience. thank you.

viva Mexico is a fantastic restaurant. I have visited on many occasions and would come back again in an instant

Viva Mexico just seems to be getting better and better, great choice of tasty dishes and a wonderful atmosphere along with really friendly and attentive waiting staff

Great Mexican food at reasonable prices! Great sangria pitchers too! Helpful and friendly waiting staff. Would definitely be back for Mexican feast in the future

Setvice was a wee bit slow to start with, but they were ridiculously busy. After we had ordered though, everything was really l great - both service and food. The Margarita's were yummy, as was chimichanga and enchilada a. The Mexicanas liquor coffee was a wee bit disappointing, but overall a great night. I would go back, for sure

A great meal with a friendly atmosphere at a reasonable price! Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a fun Mexican night out in Edinburgh!

Excellent meal here😀 Staff were very pleasant and knowledgeable. Nice ambience getting us in the mood for our forthcoming holiday to Mexico 🇲🇽 😃Food was delicious and plentiful washed down by some lovely lager. We would return. Thanks Viva Mexico x

The food was nice, a little overpriced for what it is though. The chicken in the Chimichanga was overdone and very dry. The nacho starter was good but have had better. Style of restaurant and atmosphere was great though and redeemed some of the experience.

Excellent food. Simply amazing. This is one of my favourite restaurants in Edinburgh. The service is quick and displayed beautifully. On our first visit I got the fajitas that were just out of this world. Highly recommend!

Great food. No question there but I was let down by wanting go see the dessert menu that nobody seemed to want to show me. Then I was asked if I was finished with my wine,,, yes I was ,,, with the bottle not what was still left in my glass, it was whipped away before I could say anything. It was busy yes but for me attention to detail happens when quiet or busy, sorry.

Lovely food and great atmosphere. Staff helpful, good menu and range of food. Will visit again when next in Edinburgh. Would recommend this if you are visiting.

We didn't like the food. It was like something an average home cook would do using pre prepared stuff. Our daughter says 'the food was like poop :(', but mine wasn't that bad.

We had a lovely meal at Viva Mexico. Food was excellent, service was unobtrusive but very efficient. We needed to be out within an hour and managed that with ease.

Food ready good with excellent variety of tastes, textures and styles that meet the demands of a family with vastly different views on what they will eat! Staff could not have been more obliging, they do the birthday cake entrance for my daughter really well.

This Restaurant was AMAZING!!!! Some of the best food we have had so far in Edinburgh.. Me and my girlfriend both rate the food easily 10/10. The Nachos starter was worth easy £15 but was only around £6..

We had a party of 12, and were seated promptly and orders taken. Unfortunately the chef got one of the dishes wrong, but was rectified very quickly. Nice environment and tasty food.

Lovely little Mexican restaurant with friendly staff and very quick service. Several gluten free options clearly marked on the normal menu. The refried beans were very tasty.

The food was amazing and extremely authentic, the ambience of the place also has that honey vibe that a lot of people will enjoy. Service was very good and friendly staff. The only thing we would have preferred was slightly larger chairs.

All food top notch. Service excellent. Mexican atmosphere. Colourful and authentic. Delicious Cuba libres, excellent calamari which were not at all rubbery. Give it a go you won't be disappointed.

Both food and service were excellent. This is a bustling restaurant with a lovely ambience set in the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town. Used to eat there regularly as a student and will definitely not leave it so long to return. Very highly recommended.

Really fabulous food in an equally fabulous environment! Very much what we wanted for a family get together in Edinnirgh. We will visit again, without question.

Excellent service and very authentic Mexican cuisine! Highly recommend! I have to write more words because the minimum is 25 words for a review but don't let my lack of words on the restaurant deter you! It was excellent, nothing else needs to be said!

Very tastey and great food with excellent service that went a long with it. Would highly recommend for good Mexican food. The price was also average for the location.

Excellent atmosphere food amazing. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Authentic Mexican food in authentic looking Mexican surrounding. Would recommend

Lovely restaurant with great customer service. Food was fantastic and a good portion size. Would highly recommend, reasonable prices. Restaurant is unique and welcoming. The menu has lots of options for those who have allergies and dietary requirements

Easy online reservation, it was the first time I tried Quandoo. Viva Mexico had great service, even better food...its always one of our favourites! Couldn't email the reservation though?

Fabulous food and very welcoming staff. Met friends from America for dinner and even they were impressed with the portion sizes. Will definitely be back again.

Best Mexican restaurant in town by far. Have been going there since 1990. Watch out for the Margaritas, they sneak up on you. Bon appetite!

The good was amazing, very tasty. The cocktails were beautiful especially the sangria! The service was very good. We visited on a Tuesday night and soo glad I had booked, it was packed! Would definitely return if we went back to Edinburgh!

It was great. Very busy. Starters brilliant.....Mains a wee bit disappointing...pulled pork a bit watery...dessert good. Service great. Busy restaurant so really glad we booked.

Excellent food. Great atmosphere. The staff were extremely friendly and efficient. Was my first time back since 1991, but loved the whole experience. Would definitely recommend!

Absolutely love this place. The tacos are very nice, and the margaritas too. I've been there many times and was never disappointed. Will go again soon.

Really tasty grub in a quality location. All three of us thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. I'm already looking for an excuse to get back. Highly rated.

I love this place. Great fish tacos and amazing Margeritas, what more could you want?! It's a nice, informal place to eat and kids are welcome too

My table was waiting for me and the waiting staff were excelle t and attentive. A really good lunch and excellent value. Three people eating two courses with a drink for £35 all in. I would highly recommend Viva Mexico to anyone.

Very nice food and good portions! Staff were friendly and reasonable priced. Nice atmosphere would be worth booking in advance as it was very busy!

This restaurants is exactly as all the reviews say excellent service and excellent food. The Fajitas are very well presented and tasty together with great salsa.

Got seated straight away but waited forever for our drinks to arrive. Starter arrived first. Food was ok but not very tasty. Easnt approsched at any point and asked if we wanted to order more drinks. We had to stop the waitress every time and instigate and order. Finished main and never approached by staff again. Not asked if we wanted desserts or coffees etc. Won't be going back.

Very pleasant meal with top class, friendly service and good ambience. Sensible prices. Highly recommended. Well worth going there. Our guests much appreciated it too.

Lovely small restaurant best to book and ask to sit downstairs. Food portions are huge and the food is tasty. Worth a visit, I will return.

We have been here several times now and always enjoy it. This time we took a couple that had never been and they also really enjoyed it
