From Google Maps reviews.
Viva just opened a couple months ago and I pass by all the time and been wanting to check it out. The first thing I'll say is you definitely get great quality, fresh food, in good portions. There's another Poblana restaurant that's pretty famous in the Bronx that doesn't give you anywhere near the food Viva does. I got a carnitas torta and it was mostly carnitas and not lettuce! That's always good! The service was great and the food came out surprisingly fast, despite there being a dozen or
This Cafe is very refreshing. The service here is outstanding along with the food. This is where I’ve been getting my breakfast. Highly recommend. Very clean, food is good very customer friendly and the place is big.
Amazing food and great staff. Great portions.
