Great food, great atmosphere, great time and lovely evening out for a group of friends. 😀
Great staff, lovely food, we will definitely be coming back to Viva Mexico!
Excellent service, lovely food was the best Mexican we have both been too! Will be back
Great food, nice atmosphere. A little slow at points with orders, but not so long to be an issue (5out of 6)
Overall, an okay experience. My main course was warm not hot. The service was efficient to the point of brusqueness. The margarita was a bit thin. Food flavours good though, and they’ve been better in the past. Maybe festival fatigue?
Very authentic, service was brilliant. Food was excellent and very good price
We had the mole poblano and camerones chipotle, and both were fabulous. Perfectly cooked shrimp and chicken, and wonderfully spiced sauces. The salsa and guacamole were also excellent. We both grew up eating Mexican food, and Viva Mexico was a very pleasant surprise.
It was very busy but really like the taquitos there. I'm mexican an their taquitos help with the craving.
Good food slightly spoiled with the dull waiting room atmosphere of the upstairs level. Downstairs looked and sounded better.
Great meal and drinks. Starter slightly slow in arriving and margaritas superb.
Overcharge on bill. No apology. Food very disappointing. Will not return.
Wonderful food, as usual, and great service. Even difficult dietary requirements were no problem. Will be back again!
Great food, well presented and good service. Will definitely return.
Friendly speedy service and delicious food at a reasonable price
Ambience and staff were great. The al pastor pork was a bit dry which was a little bit disappointing and the chimichanga wasn’t crispy as expected. Overall was a nice meal and great location but don’t think I will hurry back.
Food not as tasty as I remember. Also it’s now too expensive. We essentially paid £65 for diluted sangria and 2 burritos Won’t be coming again.
Delicious Food, Great Atmosphere and Friendly Staff. Second Visit and We Will Be Back
I love this restaurant! Never had a bad experience, food is always amazing, staff are friendly and helpful!
Service was awful, had to go and get are own drinks from a tray left on a shelf; staff did not know how to talk to us or ask the right questions. No one new how to work the coffee machine, food was good.
Mix up with food but was resolved quickly and with exceptional professionalism Great staff Friendly and attentive Food amazing
Great food and coffee in this colourful, quirky restaurant. Recommended!
Great food, with gluten free options but service was slow
We visit here every time we’re in town and it never disappoints!
Excellent service on what was a very busy night. Meal was delicious.
We were seated upstairs in restaurant, good atmosphere. Great margaritas! And loved the fajitas. They were really busy and staff were totally on point👌🏼 Thank you!xx
Food was incredible. So, so tasty. The service was great but it was a little disconcerting hearing the waiting staff getting told off right beside our table and also being a little snippy with some customers looking for a table. Although the person in question was very pleasant to us, I feel the experience would have been a 6 rather than a 5 had we not witnessed this.
Was a little disappointed with the quality of the food - mole sauce was very sweet, unlike any mole had before. Service was good.
The entire dining experience was great, we’ll be back. Brilliant
Great Mexican food and atmosphere in the centre of Edinburgh
Everything was perfect. Food was delicious. Staff were lovely. Definitely be back.
Best meal we’ve had in a long time. Everything was fantastic, from the staff, venue, food and margaritas! This place is our first choice every time we visit Edinburgh.
thanks for the delicious mexican food. It was so good that we came back within 1 week.
Excellent food and friendly staff who made us feel very welcome
Love this place, food as always was outstanding. Great atmosphere. X
Lovely food, generous portions and great value. Loved the refried beanz!
Excellent food and service! Great margaritas as well. The skirt steak was the favorite at our table.
another great visit. place was really busy but staff were still attentive and food delicious with such small wait times
Lovely staff. Yummy food. Good value for money. Would go again.
Great service and helpful with the cake and value for money
The food was wonderful! Our margaritas were very weak though. I had a mango and it just tasted like mango juice with no alcohol.
Food and service were good. The starter we had of guacamole and tortilla chips seemed a bit overpriced but other than that all was very good.
We lived in Edinburgh 10 years ago and learned about VM then. We returned this week and we’re delighted to find them still open. The food was just as outstanding as always! We’ll be back before long. :)
Thoroughly enjoyed the fresh tasting food & the margaritas; all served up by friendly, efficient staff - you can’t ask for more than that.
Excellent Mexican food as coming from a Southern California. Recommended!
We go here ever time we up at Edinburgh and live it
Fantastic place, highly recommend. Always try to fit it in when visiting edinburgh.
We were sat immediately and served quickly with the food being very fresh and top class
Great place and great meal. Really enjoyed the food and people
Lively restaurant with great food and atmosphere, very authentic. Will definitely return.
Great time, no dip in usual high standard of food, fast sharp service, atmosphere warm music not too loud, very happy with evening
