This restaurant was worth the five-hour drive! It has a bay view, the food is excellent, and the drinks are fabulous! We went on Memorial Day weekend without a reservation and were lucky enough to get seats at the open bar immediately. (I highly recommend making a reservation on any weekend.) We ordered the jalapeno margarita and pina colada on the rocks. We had the crispy brussel sprouts for an appetizer and the shrimp tacos and beef tostadas for our meal, which were all served...
A great semi-upscale dining experience on SPI! The bay view is gorgeous for the sunset (tho expect a wait if you don't have reservations), and the food and cocktails were fantastic. I especially loved the yellowfin crudo! I had also been searching for a good quality specialty cocktail (not just fruity island drinks) and Viva was exactly what I was looking for. Will definitely be going again next time I am on the island!
My husband and I didn't want anything too fancy or grill/bar food and we ended up stumbling upon Viva. Their food is the best I had during my stay at SPI! I had the Teriyaki shrimp and beef kababs and my husband had the Steak n' frites and they were both delicious. But make sure to have a reservation, they seem to get filled quickly.
