First time to this fairly New Mexican restaurant in Lexington. Very nice atmosphere, lovely murals inside, staff was great and the food was very good. We’ll go back for sure.

Omg this food is so amazing. Huge fan of El Rancho & Nuevos in Richmond, this gives them a run for the money. This place definitely need more menu options/ variety but other than that I’m thoroughly impressed!!! And will 100% be back! I got pollo con arroz w green bell peppers & we also got a molcajete! 🙂

Viva Mexico is our new favorite Mexican spot. The food is delicious, the drinks are amazing, and the staff is very friendly. I strongly recommend the jalapeño margarita.

The staff here are kind and attentive. Had the Vaca Bandida for lunch. The steak was overcooked and chewy and the cheese sauce tasted a bit off to my taste. I do like their choice of tacos they’re soft and fluffy. Perhaps today’s order was a fluke, I’ll try something different next time.

The owner Jorge is so nice and friendly. He always greets his customers and employees with a smile very professional! The food was amazing. And my drink was wonderful too. Great location and welcoming atmosphere. My waitress Jazmine was kind and helpful. I will totally be coming back this place hands down is the best Mexican restaurant I have ate at so far in Lexington bringing actual Spanish style and flavor to the table. Thank you for the food and great service!

This place is great! We ordered the enchiladas suizas and the Kentucky burrito and both were amazing. Their house margaritas are also great! Get the monster size. Service was also second to none and super friendly. We will certainly be back.
