Did a pick up order and my rice was soggy and my chicken was hard in the middle . Never had my order turn out this terrible before.

The food was great! Decent prices and a huge verity on the menu. Everything was super tasty and well seasoned. The service was nice and the manager Alex (I assume) was a huge help! The restaurant was also very well decorated and has a nice high ceiling. We wanted to watch a Game and there weren't too many tvs so they sat us by the bar. Everything was fantastic! 9.5/10!

Viva is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Charleston! The food is great! And you get so much! Definitely try the fajitas! The server was super fun and down to have a chat about the best tequilas! He also made me the best spicy margarita! Viva is also super picturesque inside if you want to do a photo-op! The elote was my favorite dish but all the food was good and I had plenty of leftovers the next day! I was very happy with Viva and can't wait to go back!

Pretty good Mexican food & drinks, however the Fajitas only come with 3 tortillas for the entire serving, and extras are $1.75 which is a little silly. Overall a good experience and fun atmosphere.

A girlfriend and I have a goal of trying new restaurants in the area every time we get together and this spot did not disappoint!! We both ordered mixed drinks (blueberry margarita was my favorite!) and the meal was fantastic. Our waitress was super helpful in suggesting foods, didn't rush us as it took a while to order and overall it was just a great first impression. We'll definitely be back!

Normally I love going to Viva but I can assure you I'll never go back again. A young opportunistic server decided to charge us gratuity for 6 people, considering the 6th individual was an infant! If servers are that hard up for tips, management should pay them more!

We did take out but food was just okay. Will need to try them again to get a better impression

Sunday morning brunch and arrived after a party of 20. Glad we had chips and guacamole to munch on during the 90 minute wait.
Vegetarian options: Modern restaurant with home made tortillas hand crafted cocktails. This place makes me feel right at home. All ingredients are fresh. Staff is knowledgeable and they have a tequila sommelier to guide you to your favorite tequila.
I ordered a burrito, the cost was 17 USD and change. After eating half and noticing something wasn't right, I decided to deconstruct the 2nd half at home. It had 1.8oz of chicken and one and a half cups of rice and beans. No sauce. No cheese. No cilantro. No onion. No tomato. No avocado. Essentially 17 dollars for a cup of rice. No thanks...

Good food if you like mexicano!! We ordered the arroz con grilled chicken and milanesa and it tasted nice! We also ate one of the desserts which was fun since they served it in a different way (see picture). We got like 15 churros which was a lot so we asked for a doggy bag. Overall good experience and a nice place to eat at!!
