Viva El Taco

i purchase chilea rellenos, they seem to starving because they are so small and flat. and i pay a good amount for 2 of them $ 8 they look like they cost 5 $ or less

Best carne asada fries and sopes. I live this place and I come here all the time with my family. I will keep coming here. Thanks for the awesome service

We visited this Viva El Taco location a few days ago and ordered (1) Carnitas Plate w/​Jamaica and (1) Burrito de Lengua w/​Horchata, Pricing for the meal was as expected very affordable. I can’t complain about the Carnitas Plate it was delicious and very well seasoned with very tender and juicy meat however i have a few complaints regarding the Burrito, It had too much filler which i wasn’t expecting.
Every bite taken from this burrito felt as if i had been eating a bowl of rice, refried beans & guacamole — the meat was not noticeable and i suppose that’s okay if you’re some kind of unorthodox vegetarian but for me it was not right. I understand filler is often used to save money etc. but this burrito was almost completely made of rice/​guac and refried beans.
Lastly their Horchata was very refreshing and tasty as for the Jamaica, We could tell right away by how watery it was that it wasn’t natural and it had been taken from powder form or a bottle. There are many taco joints that still make their drinks natural from scratch or sometimes mixed with concentrates ie; Robertos, Mariana’s, Taco Mexico etc.

Usually go thru drive-​thru, but went inside.
I do like they have a sink with soap and paper towels to wash your hands before you eat!
I ordered a Breakfast Burrito with Ham, it wasn’t to busy so the wait wasn’t long at all. They have the red and green salsa with limes, radishes, carrots, and onions.
My burrito was very hot and I had to wait to eat it as to not burn a layer of skin from my mouth, as it was cooling down enough to eat I munched on some sliced radishes and they were nice and crunchy.
So now my burrito had cooled down minimally so I doused it with red salsa that was very flavorful. Plenty of ham for sure, I swear I could hear it oinking! Potatoes, Eggs, Cheese and Ham, what a combination!
Ok time for a nap!

The cashier was very confused with our order she was trying to tell us that the prices we were looking at on the menu were not the prices and on Unilocal the prices are way lower than the prices in the actual restaurant. We came here a couple months ago and the service was way better and the cashier was not so confused. For example bean tostada is $ 2.50 and the french fries are $ 2.50. And I’m not sure why they have a B from the health department.

We love the food, have never had anything that was not good. We come back every time we are in town. Friendly people with awesome food. They have a huge menu to choose from and late hours for those late night cravings!

Went through the drive thru today for lunch. I had tacos al pastor and husband had rolled tacos. Food came out fast and it was pretty tasty. $ 12 for lunch for two… not bad. In a sketchy neighborhood but I was pleasantly surprised.

A few minutes after our family’s food was ready, we realized our toddler’s chicken nuggets order was not served. Turns out they hadn’t even started to make it. When we finally received it, it was raw in the center! I showed the cashier the raw chicken and she gave me a refund (she gave no apology and seemed not to care). Also, one of the salsas at the salsa bar was spoiled.

We went to live to eat taco and I got the cashier service bues these ali does not want to take water from natural and has a bad attitude bad

Viva El Taco has been my late night stop since before I met my husband. Now that we live in Henderson I seldom get the chance to stop. So last week when we were on the way to my Dad’s we stopped by. Wow! They have not changed a bit! Still yummy as ever!
This was my husbands first time trying Viva El Taco. He ordered the Al Pastor burrito and I got the Carne Asada burrito. Both were loaded with meat, guacamole and pico! Mmmmm soooo tasty! They also have a killer fish taco. My husband has been craving that burrito ever since!
Not only is the food awesome, but the prices are great too. If your on the east side make sure you swing by for some tacos.

I’ve eaten here plenty of times and always happy with the quality of the meal. My favorite are there fries with al pastor! It comes with all the fixings like nachos but instead of chips they use French fries!!! Love the salsas available too, compliments any item perfectly!
I like to order their shrimp burrito when I want a change of taste and it is scrumptious!!! Imagine jambalaya wrapped in a tortilla and there’s your shrimp burrito.
I haven’t eaten here in awhile mainly because service there has been on a downward spiral, I ordered thru the drive thru and it took me roughly twenty minutes to get my food, I understand (and appreciate) thoroughly cooked food but that’s a long wait for drive thru service maybe they should hire a couple more workers to speed up productivity.
I gave this place 4 stars because I truly love the food and would recommend it to anyone, just have to make sure that they aren’t in a hurry for their food

I returned and they redeemed themselves!!! More impressive since it was a late night visit… My Chicken taco was fresh and juicy like I’m used too!!! KEEP IT UP!!!

Shuttling between old apartment and my new place here in Sunrise, we had to have breakfast takeaway, and I was pleased. Delicious. The breakfast burrito was all the fuel I needed for a day of packing and moving. Now that we are solid residents and I have tried other Mexican eateries in the area, I must say, the quality of the cooked meats is levels above the other guys. The carne asada burrito my husband had was made well and I was happy to see that the carnitas in mine was still recognizable as pork. I abhor meat cooked or charred to a tasteless jerky. I also love that the condiment bar was kept well. The pickled onions are AMAZING and carrots are a necessary accompaniment.

Not impressed. I came here when I was starving after a late-​night flight for some late-​night chow. #FAIL
I discarded my shrimp burrito mid-​way b/​c it had a glass-​cleaner/​freezer-​burnt taste and was generally repulsive. I knew that if I finished it, I’d feel like crap for the entire next day. After a few bites I felt like I’d just chowed down a harvest of grain. My poor stomach.

This is a nice spot to get your mexican food fix. The taste is authentic but the place seems to just remain content with what they have rather than try to improve on what’s good. What might be affecting these good quality mexican food are the side trucks on the corner of the streets.
But the place is clean, the staff is nice and helpful. So far I’ve ordered their burrito and tacos. I’ve been pleased with both.

The carne asada here is always a lot better than what I’ve had at other taquerias. I’ve had the restraint not to order the carne asada fries for quite a while, but they are made perfectly here. I’m not a decadent dessert kind of guy, so things like carne asada fries are my definition of a guilty indulgence. If you’ve never had it, it’s basically a pile of crispy french fries covered with nacho toppings.
Not everything else on the menu is quite as good as the carne asada, but I don’t think I’ve ever ordered anything that I disliked.

Listen. I’m embarrassed to say this, but I need to be upfront. I am addicted to those spicy carrots you find at most mexican joints like this. And this place maybe has the best in town!
not that the rest of the food is not tasty! I usually get the carne asada nachos or a beef burrito. Always delicious.
but the carrots. /​stomach growl
oh oh.
I guess i gotta go down there for lunch today!
