Came here based on a recommendation from a friend who said they had the 'best Mexican food in…read moretown'. But in fact, it is a Chilean food truck and the next door food truck is Salvadorian, which I was even more excited to try. Viva is run by a sweet older man who gave me his recommendations, so I took them and ordered the Churrasco Sandwich (avocado, mayonnaise, tomato, and steak) which came with fries and the cheese empanadas for my mom. The sandwich was incredibly flavorful, the steak tasted amazing, there was an over abundance of avocado which is rare because you know how most restaurants can be stingy on crushed avo! The fries were crispy and perfect with ketchup, my mom loved the cheese empanadas, I also tried a bite and they were flakey and crispy, cheese inside was gooey and warm, you can't go wrong with a great empanada! I was happy we tried this spot and that it didn't end up being Mexican (which I also love btw), I've never tried Chilean food before and more people should know about Viva! There were more people at the Salvadorian spot next to it but it shared the same patio, I'd be curious to try the other spot when I come back to Pensacola. All in all, a great experience, bursting with flavor. 10/10!

The first bite of the chicken had my mouth full of flavor--super tender, juicy, and just straight-up delicious. I asked for their spiciest sauce, the red chile de árbol, and it had a nice little kick. Not crazy spicy--but then again, I'm Mexican, lol. The rice and beans were also on point--really flavorful and a perfect side to the tacos. My wife got the shrimp taco box for $10.99 and loved it. She chose the green sauce (jalapeño with tomatillo), which had a mild kick and tasted really fresh. We also ordered pico de gallo with avocado, and it was fresh, bright, and exactly what you want. I've lived in Mexico, Texas, and was stationed in California for 16 years--so I'm always on the hunt for a legit spot whenever I move. This place honestly beats a lot of the hyped-up spots in Pensacola. I will DEFINITELY be coming back again and again!

The food here is good. The Al pastor is quite tasty. The guacamole is also very good.

A little bit of a slow pace, but definitely checked back and made sure I had everything I needed. As far as the general vibe goes... it's great! The music is certainly authentic Mexican music.

And on the completely other end of town... The tacos el pastor are reminiscent of the tacos I was eating on the shores of Los Cabos with bits of pineapple giving a little umph to the marinated pork. And the tamales wrapped in banana leaves took me back to the Yucatan peninsula with the uniquely seasoned and wrapped tamales. Their food is just amazing! The service is good, too. You order at the makeshift counter (this is an outdoor stall of sorts situated with Chilean and Salvadorian neighbors) then they deliver the food to your table along with salsas and flatware. While there isn't air conditioning, luckily there was a nice light breeze when we were there. This trip we very much enjoyed both Mexican and Salvadorian food. Unfortunately, the Chilean stall was closed. I guess we will have to return! That won't be a problem, I'm looking forward to more of this places delectable cuisine.
