We came back to Vivo for its excellent fresh menu! We've never been let down w the food or service. Their chalupas compuestos, verde Ck and Chipotle Enchiladas always excellent. Best Chips and Smokey Salsa in town

We recently had the opportunity to visit this establishment, which had been on our agenda for years. Our experience was marred by the difficulty in obtaining information about vegetarian options from the staff, despite our efforts to inquire. Their lack of knowledge was surprisingly alarming and it was not a matter of language, as I am fluent in Spanish and asked several people. We were unable to obtain clarification on whether their rice and refried beans were vegetarian, and a server who promised to investigate the use of chicken broth in their rice failed to follow up. Ultimately, we did not feel comfortable and will not be returning. However, the margarita was satisfactory.

Very very good! Love the easy parking. The salad was huge with a generous portion of chicken. I loved the toasted pumpkin seeds. The verde enchiladas were good although the tortillas were a little too thick / tough. Overall, food was good and we would go back Service was great, friendly although they cleaned up too quickly. They took away utensils while we were still eating.

Vivo is located close to one of my work locations and it's a go-to with colleagues for lunch.Decent Tex-Mex with nicely priced lunch specials. I love the puffy taco with rice and cup of tortilla soup deal. It's only 9 bux.

Came here with a friend last night for the first time and really loved this spot! The restaurant itself is very cute with nice patio seating out front and dim lighting inside that gives the space a nice vibe. I was craving a marg so I got a frozen mango margarita and it was great. We got an order of guac to split as an appetizer and neither of us really enjoyed it to be honest. One of my pet peeves with Mexican restaurants is when the guac is basically just mashed avocado with nothing added to it and that's pretty much what this was. Not a big deal tho, the rest of our food was great! I got the Emma's choice meal and chose the chipotle chicken enchilada and beef puffy taco and everything was really good! Our server was nice and our food came out pretty quickly. Will definitely be back!

I recently visited here with my friend and we had an amazing dinner! The parking situation outside is a bit of a mess as the spaces were incredibly narrow, but there's a lot next door that allows for a bit more room in parking. We did have a reservation and were promptly seated by the host, who was incredibly friendly! Our waitress was also very prompt in coming over to take care of us, but it was a bit harder trying to get our bill to pay and go home at the end of the night. I felt bad because we left after close, but we asked to pay before then and were told not to worry about it and not to rush. I always hate leaving after a restaurant closes, so I think I'd try to get everything taken care of sooner the next time we go! As for the food, everything was delicious and I absolutely LOVED that when I asked if the tortillas for the enchiladas were only corn and had no wheat, the waitress asked if it was for a gluten allergy. After I let her know it was, she told the kitchen to prepare everything separately to help prevent any contamination. So thankful for that! I don't know that I would order a flavored margarita again, as it was good, but I didn't taste as much of the hibiscus. BUT I will absolutely be back for the enchiladas and flan!! The chips and salsa were also fantastic. All in all, it was a great experience and my friend also mentioned bringing her husband here in the future, so you can tell we both enjoyed it!

Miracle at Vivo is amazing - very accommodating and helpful in making great recommendations! One suggestion made to me was the spinach quesadilla. It was very good! This spot also has a relaxed and fun vibe. Happy hour during the week is a good time to pop in. It starts to get crowded on Friday nights around 6 or 7.

Great food! The chicken enchiladas and tortilla soup were a huge hit amongst the group. Everything was very flavorful and portions were plenty. It's a little tucked in and difficult to find at first but great Tex-Mex in the north Austin area. Will definitely be returning!

They definitely missed the mark. The concept is good and the drink menu was legit but the food just wasn't good. The best part of the meal were the potatoes but I didn't even get to season anything because there weren't salt and pepper on ANY of the tables. The tortillas tasted like they were from Walmart. We never got any refills. Hopefully it was just an off day but it made me miss San Antonio.

I took a friend here an hour before closing last night, just to share a quick appetizer and a drink after a long rehearsal night. The chips were still buttery fresh, the salsa had its usual delightful kick, and the margaritas never disappoint. This restaurant is super colorful and moody inside -- jewel toned walls and dark lighting, perfect for a casual date or happy hour with your bestie. My mom and I have loved this spot ever since it opened because of their beautiful sangria swirl margaritas and tasty food. We ordered the California shrimp nachos, and my friend asked for "no pico" while ordering which was a surprise to me. The order came out with pico and to my horror, my friend sent it back (HEARTBREAK!! I would have happily eaten that delicious looking plate)! It turns out my friend is one of those unlucky people to whom cilantro tastes like soap... what a bummer for her... and me, last night lol. The waitress was so nice and apologized for the pico mistake and the kitchen staff brought out a new plate of nachos super quick despite being quarter til close, and they were fresh and delicious, with extra sprouts in place of the pico. Thanks for taking care of my friend so warmly!!
