Disorganized. Employees not paying attention to who is getting what. People grabbing orders that's not there's. No situational awareness. This is why you don't tip up front.

Got the Dolce Canele, very tasty! Not too sweet. Barista made it the perfect temperature.
Really liked the vibe. Great place to bring your laptop and have a cup of coffee. Liked the music playing. Local and friendly.

We were in the area this weekend. On our way home we looked up local coffee shops and found Viva Espresso. We saw they closed at 8 pm and rushed over there to see if we would make it. We arrived 5 minutes before closing and all the chairs were put up already and told us they were closed. I know we were cutting it close but if it says 8 pm I would hope they serviced the customers that arrived up to closing time instead of turning us away. We left disappointed and went elsewhere.
I stopped by with my partner for some coffee without any expectations and it just blew me away.The Oaxaca mocha is one of the most delightful mochas I've ever had. The staff is super friendly and the place is very clean.
ALL of their drinks are beyond amazing!!! their fraps are soooo good as well I love the caramel and java chip! Not to mention the Blanco Mocha and Caramel macchiato !!! seriously my fav coffee shop ever <3

Set up in a generic mall, but they made good use of the space. Almond milk latte was better than usual, with coffee roasted to perfection. Oaxaca Mocha also excellent. Fair trade coffee makes you feel good about it too.

Not the first time, i guess it varies what type of mood they are in. I’m usually on the go i normally call ahead of time to avoid delays and the flow of my routines. I called mutiple times no one answered then i show up to the coffee shop asking if the phones are not working , and the employee states that we don’t answer phones until we have an extra person because sometimes we are busy, i mind you the shop only had three sitting customers with their coffees in hand and only one person in line that’s not busy. It’s being lazy employees like that with a poor demeanor and Ethic is what looses customers and makes the business look bad. believe me It was not busy, nobody is perfect but giving an excuse like that when clearly was not busy that even the employee didn’t even believe what she Claimed. Before they potentially respond with an excuse i called again right when i was about to park just to see if they’ll make the excuse of being busy. And then you can clearly see the employee upset that i asked a very fair question

Great depth of flavor.CON:- A bit out of the way, not main street.SUMMARY:If you're anywhere in Salinas, come here right now!
