Went to Viva Mercado at 3553 S Rainbow Blvd, Las Vegas, NV, April 22, 2008. This is an EXCELLENT Mexican Restaurant. The Margaritas are to die for. They have an extensive margarita menu--all different kinds of tequila. After one small frozen margarita ($5.95), I was glad I didn't order a larger one. Whew--but are they good.... We read about Viva... more

Although staying on the strip (a $15 cab ride away) we made an effort to get to Viva Mercado's and it did not disappoint. My only regret is that I could not eat more! The menu is huge, I had a hard time deciding what I would have. In the end the waitresses excellent knowledge of the menu helped and... more

An encyclopedic menu, fabulous margaritas, excellent additional tasters (especially the Sopa de Fideos), attentive friendly service, and a bill under $100 for a family of four. This is the best find off the Strip and well worth the 10 minute drive. Next time we're back in Vegas we'll be back here ! more

It was great food. I really enjoyed the atmosphere. I wish the guy who walked around playing the guitar would actual walk around a little more. I enjoyed my burrito yum more

This place rocks! Totally a hole-in-the-wall type place, but man is the food good. Everything from the guac to my favorite, the seafood chile relleno is top notch. Great traditional ambience. A must go!! more

We loved the old hole in the wall and just tried them at their new location. Still good food. Thrilled that they're still getting a packed house when the new restaurant is 4x as big. Tip: Get the Carne Asada over the Carnitas. Mine came out as pork chops. more

Had lunch at Viva Mercado's after reading some possitive reviews from Trip Advisor. Worth the trip. It is located in a strip mall (I heard they are moving soon though) so don't expect any flare. The food, though, was fantastic. Being a Yankee from Boston I really cherish great Mexican since I can not get any at home. A+ on... more
