I have an art studio across the railroad tracks. This is one of the few places within one block that serve food in the morning. I love that it's so close and convenient and the food is amazing.

Wow. Just wow. Best coffee I’ve ever had - vanilla oat milk latte. I don’t know what magic they put in there, I mean what grounds they used. Smoothest coffee. The chilaquiles were to die for, cilantro and radishes, chips still crunchy, WHAT?! Carnitas torte, perfect spice, bread, meat just outstanding mouth experience. The service was sweet. Environment , chill. Great patio. Thank you for such a delightful dining experience, Vivir and co.

Ordered Chilaquiles to-go and they came WITHOUT salsa. At that point they are NOT chilaquiles but just tortilla chips with shredded chicken. Not even nachos at that point as they were COMPLETELY DRY. When I called back they told me their kitchen closed- and would issue me a refund, took down my information. This was in March and I never got refunded - called several times and was told a manager or someone would get back to me- never happened. Almost $40 down the drain as I left a nice tip before getting home a realizing the food wasn't made properly. Of course at that point I made my own salsa verde- but what a true disappointment that it was never resolved. I used to recommend this place but due to their business practices and lack of care with clients- I will no longer do so. Pictured below are the dry tortilla chips with shredded chicken, and no salsa.

Nice looking place and a cool concept, however the food was simply not good. We got the chicken tinga burrito and the chorizo torta and neither had any spice or flavor. Additionally, after a service fee, tax, and reasonable tip (18% for ordering online and no wait staff other than whoever brings the food) it cost $60 dollars for only 2 people. Very disappointed, and would not recommend unless you’re going strictly for the atmosphere.

My experience at Vivir restaurant left me with mixed feelings, as the dishes showcased both potential and room for improvement.Cemita Sandwich - A Unique Concept Falling Short:The Cemita Sandwich at Vivir caught my attention with its unique concept, but unfortunately, it missed the mark in terms of flavor. While the idea was intriguing, the execution didn't quite deliver the taste I was expecting. There was a peculiar spice or herb that seemed to clash, hitting the palate in a way that didn't quite work for me.Avocado Tostada - A Bright Spot:On a positive note, the Avocado Tostada was a standout dish that I thoroughly enjoyed. It had a good balance of flavors, and the freshness of the avocado shone through. This dish showcased the potential that Vivir has to create tasty and well-executed offerings.Enchilada - Lacking in Distinctiveness:The Enchilada, unfortunately, fell short of expectations. It lacked a distinct flavor profile and didn't leave a lasting impression. I found myself wishing for more complexity and uniqueness in taste.Overall Impression:Vivir has the potential to elevate its culinary offerings by introducing new and exciting flavors. While there were some misses, the Avocado Tostada proves that there's promise in the kitchen. With a bit of refinement and creativity, Vivir could transform into a dining destination known for its distinctive and flavorful dishes.In conclusion, Vivir is a restaurant with ups and downs in the flavor department. While not every dish hit the mark, there's hope for improvement and the creation of a more memorable dining experience in the future.
We had breakfast here and thought it was good, but could have been a little better. My wife really liked her chilaquiles, but thought it could have used some eggs, more chicken (she had to search to find it) and maybe a few chips on the side so there could be more crunch. I had the mushroom cemitas sandwich and really enjoyed it. There was a good heat to the sandwich and it was very filling. I also had the spicy hot chocolate which was very rich and tasty.The service could have been a little better as we saw our order get finished and had to ask the server if we were supposed to pick it up ourselves after five minutes of waiting, and then he brought it to us.

What a lovely, welcoming space! We came here for Hot Chocolate and a quick bite before heading to the Northrup King Building for Art Attack, and found ourselves embraced by the warmth and connection of Vivir, remaining for longer than expected to talk, sip our cocoa, and enjoy some delicious and generous nachos!
I would definitely stop by Vivir and give the Mexican Hot Chocolate a try, maybe grab a snack, and peruse the goods near the entrance. Worth a visit, by yourself or with good friends 💙
