Viva Mexico

Had lunch today and was very impressed. This place has a great atmosphere, great location, great staff, great food and great price. I would highly recommend a visit

A really nice little place with good service. Choice of dishes was excellent the quality and size was perfect. I will definitely be back soon!

Lovely food, great atmosphere. The place it self when you first walk past it seems quite small, but most the restaurant is under ground! Nice little touch

nice little restaurant, with welcoming staff, lovely mexican food and decorations

The food was excellent, the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was very chilled. Oh and the mojitos are also highly recommended! We will definitely visit again.

3 out of 4 chairs broken and wonky table. Could just have been out bad luck but food not hot and fajita not even a whimper never mind a sizzle. Shame.

Menu was great, plenty of options for lunchtime, perfect portion sizes for lunchtime. Not expensive at all. Love the buzz of the place. Absolutely love Viva Mexico. Highly recommend.

Just okay, a different place to go, food alright but quite expensive for what it is, one of our party found a hair in her dessert, wouldn't rush back.

Cute restaurant, great food with choices for any dietary needs! The staff are friendly and attentive and food was prepared quickly given we were a large group. Reasonably priced, we were all pleased!

Lovely restaurant with an authentic, cosy atmosphere. Food was amazing, service pleasant and very quick and everything was really reasonably priced. Cannot recommend highly enough and will certainly return next time I'm in Edinburgh!

After having eaten hear for twenty years the quality and service has remained consistently excellent. The lively atmosphere is a guarantee that Via Mexico will be hear for many years to come

Food was excellent best ive had the service was very quick and very professional highly recommend I will definitely come back for more great night

Great service, excellent staff, nice atmosphere, lovely food, and tequilas, quite reasonably priced too, we would definitely call by again when We're in the city...😀

Great food and service. Booked this restaurant online and it was absolutely worth it. The atmosphere was fantastic, the decor was exactly what I would have expected. Friendly and very prompt service again great food! Tasty, well presented, hot and plenty of it

Very friendly and homely atmosphere plus good food making for a great night

i have been here many times. As always the food was great and the staff are friendly and quick. I'd recommend this restaurant to all my friends.

Loved it! Great food, great hostesses. May have fallen off my seat but all because the drink tasted so good so had to have more!

Brilliant food, well made sangria and super friendly service from all the staff we encountered - we will definitely be going again when we are back in Edinburgh.

Very nice and cosy place! The food and presentation was good, but the starter portion could have been bigger:-)

As usual lovely food , great service . Great value for money and excellent choice for lunch menu . Would recommend to friends and family and will be back .

We have been patrons of Viva Mexico since it opened, but last nights visit was the first for several years and again it did not disappoint. The food, service atmosphere were all as we expected excellent.

Superb authentic Mexican restaurant. Been here several times and I am never disappointed. The staff are friendly, the food excellent and the drinks (especially the cocktails) are on point. Was my fourth visit. Now looking forward to my fifth :)

Food really lovely. Menu was varied. Chilli chocolate cheesecake exceptional but be warned was spicy. Venue quaint. Would recommend and we used our gourmet card

The food and restaurant itself was lovely, the service was a little slow though, our drinks came almost at the same time as our food did.

We were a group if six. The food was really good especially the stuffed jalipino starters. The atmosphere was relaxed and we had a chilled evening.

Nachos were great, fajitas were great, cocktails were really nice also. Only complaint would be that we were sitting quite close to the front door and there was a breeze everytime the door opened.

The food was very good and the ambience was lovely downstairs. I had only previously been in for lunch at the street level but downstairs is a better dining experience and the piped Mexican music added to the occasion Would definitely come again

great atmosphere etc - nice family run place and much preferred choice over all those national chains watch out for on-line booking though - I ducked out half way through and just rang up the old fashioned reliable way, but even though I didn't complete the on-line booking it has triggered spam from the nasty middle men who feed off these restaurants

Food delish the best Mexican I have eaten in. Staff attentive and will definitely be back. Good value for money. Good portion sizes couldn't move afterwards.

Excellent meal and lovely people Would definitely recommend it, been going here for 25 years and it is like going home

Nice Mexican food to a good price, nice relaxed environment. Also, thumbs up for sangria and margarita pitchers! Had lovely Tuesday dinner with some friends.

The food was really good, I had a burrito, my brother has enchiladas. The portions were large and delicious. The waitresses were lovely, would definitely return.

Fab food and great service - excellent experience. Great re- fried beans and lovely margharittas, reasonably priced and a great place for group dining also.

We enjoyed a lovely meal, with a relaxed atmosphere and great service. I would definitely recommend! Especially the homemade chocolate chilli cheesecake... very good indeed!

A lovely afternoon with pre cocktail, good food, a nice bottle of wine and the service was perfect. Always guaranteed good Mexican food and atmosphere. Thanks

Great food, the Sopes for starter were ace, as were the haggis nachos. Top atmosphere too, good value; a great Mexican restaurant. We will be back.

Fantastic staff and the best mexican food ive had. The salsa is fantastic, the options for my vegetarian girlfriend were many. Ill definitely return next time I visit Edinburgh. Its just a shame i couldn't finish my plate.

Great restaurant - with amazing food and atmosphere :) this was our second visit here and it didn't fail to impress us. The décor is just perfect for the Mexican, we had a mixture of wine, cocktails and sangria followed by starters and mains which just hit the spot!

Very busy this rugby weekend and drinks service a bit slow: but table ready on time and no delay on food which was tastier and healthier than a lot of Mexican food currently around. Nachos and salsa particularly good

The atmosphere was great and the food was even better! Loved the downstairs restaurant and would highly recommend. The nachos and burrito were a definite favourite.

Excellent food Excellent service Excellent staff Excellent value Best Mexican in Edinburgh 10/10 all round Will definitely be going back soon Well done viva mexico👌👍👌👍

Excellent food. A real treat for me being wheat intollerant to have so many choices. Menu is clearly labelled for gluten free options. I love eating here.

Had a lovely dinner here to celebrate a birthday. Great traditional Mexican food with that home cooked feel and amazing cocktails. Lovely intimate feel and excellent service. Ate here because my parents had been eating there since it opened in the 80s and it didn't disappoint. Would definitely come here again!

The best Mexican food I have ever eaten!!! Service was attentive but not over powering. I mentioned it was my partner's birthday and they gave us a fab table over looking Princess Street - nice touch.

Prompt and very friendly service - fab food - absolutely loved it. Great start to our adventure to Mexico in a few weeks. Would definitely go back when we are in Edinburgh again.

I have been here before and it was an excellent experience so decided to go again i was not dissappointed as the food the service and atmosphere were still excellent the staff are so friendly and helpful and the food is magnificent definitely a restuarant to try if you are in edinburgh and like authentic mexican food great experience

Lovely food , excellent service , very reasonable for city centre , easy to get to from railway station , convenient for city centre attractions .

Most delicious food. Large portions. Great atmosphere. Didn't know Edinburgh has such a great mecixan reataurant!!! Staff is friendly, attentive and quick. i am definitely coming back and also recommending to others.

Brilliant food! Friendly staff. Table was a bit small for 2 lots of fajitas - but we managed! Maybe the price is a bit inflated, but I got the feeling everything was cooked fresh and the tortillas didn't seem to be out of a packet. Definitely will be back!

Great food, great service. Really enjoyed the food on offer. The deserts were some of the best I have ever had. The overall price was very reasonable.
