Viva Mexico

Enchiladas, burritos, fajitas, cocktails and Latin music - this place has just about everything authentically Mexican you can think of. The restaurant is one of Edinburgh's oldest providers of this type of cuisine, and gives a warm welcome with its bright, bold decor and loads of colourful Latin American ephemera dotted around. All that combined with the reasonably priced, tasty menu and efficient service, makes for a buzzing, enjoyable atmosphere - in fact, most of the punters leave here feeling full of beans.

  • Decorations, waitresses tried hard (but were overworked).
  • Reheated food (not fresh), appalling toilets.

“I was very disappointed with the food at viva Mexico. Why? Because it had obviously been reheated. How do I know? Well, first of all it took less than 5 mines between the waitress taking our order and the food being served. And second, the plates were steaming hot and the beans were completely dried up, just as you'd expect when food comes out of a microwave. The "chef" didn't even bother giving the beans a quick stir to make it look fresh. I concur to a complaint made by another reviewer about the service. While the waitresses were generally friendly, they appeared over-worked and never once asked whether we wanted any more drinks despite us sitting with empty glasses for some time. The bathroom facilities were appalling, and I resorted to using the ones in the train station later on. With the exception of the friendly but over-worked waitresses and decent decorations, it was a very disappointing experience. Considering that each meal cost us approx 10 pounds (20 dollars), it was definitely not worth it.”
