“Love this restaurant. They're always friendly and fast. FOOD are fresh, and tasty. Best MEXICAN FOOD !!!”
“As authentic as they come. The place is small and not fancy at all but the tacos were on point. The server was nice and service was super quick. They also have some Mexican ice cream, drinks and desserts but I haven’t tried them.”
“I loved their tacos🤩 lengua and shrimp Omg already wanna visit again”
“Somebody recommended this place to eat Mexican food, but she was mistaken. VIVA ZAPATA is the best place. The food is great, the environment is mostly familiar, and the prices reasonable. I recommend to eat one burrito, it's great. I'll be back.”
“I tried the steak torta from their food truck at the Allstate Arena Flea Market. Service is mid, atmosphere is cool, the food is pretty good. The salsa verde added a little spice and good flavor to it. It just could have used a little more steak.”
“Food was average, tacos were ok,friendly service and good salsa is all you need for a quick stop. I would try other things on menu if I come back.”
“Best tacos ever!! Highly recommend it! Thank you for the lovely service Lalo and family:)”
“Great food! I ordered a burrito chorizo, which was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. I highly recommend it if you're in the area and craving fresh, delicious food.”
