One reviewer writes, "The Hostesses, Natalia and Rachelle, are very welcoming and friendly towards all of the customers. When you walk into the restaurant, they are prepared to take your order for take out or seat you for dining in. The Al Pastor Tacos are very tasty; especially when paired with a Jamaica (Hibiscus) drink. There is ample seating indoors and outdoors which makes it a plus. Prices are very reasonable as well. Nice place to bring your family on a Saturday afternoon."

Another reviewer notes the restaurant's handicap accessibility and covered porch, adding, "It is a beautiful place, and because of Halloween time, very nicely decorated too. Your kids will enjoy that extra touch. Stuff was friendly, food was very good and the portions big! We really enjoyed our time there with the family. The covered porch worked perfectly for us."

Of course, not all reviewers have had positive experiences at Viva Mexico. One diner writes, "We were served raw beef and ice cold Chile rellenos. Given the meat was tucked inside an enchilada and taco, my husband ate a huge bite of his taco before noticing. He ended up with horrible food poisoning...I would avoid this place and save yourself a day of horrible food poisoning. I don't understand how you serve completely raw (bloody) meat."
