My sister got the chimichanga and liked it, but didn't like that it was only beef inside. She loved the plantains though! I was very excited to try El Sabor based on the several high reviews, but I was a bit disappointed. Maybe I set my expectations too high? The food was pretty good, but the meat to veggie ratio was way off for the fajitas I ordered. I ordered the trio fajitas (chicken, steak, & shrimp) and asked to only do the steak & shrimp, and to just do bigger portions of those two instead of having the chicken. There was barely any steak, and just a huge amount of peppers & onions. I don't mind paying $20 for decently portioned fajitas, but I was pretty disappointed that there was barely any meat. I would have liked more shrimp on there as well. I'm left with mixed opinions honestly. It wasn't necessarily a bad experience, just a little disappointing. Most folks seem to love it, so I'd say to leave it to your own judgment and give it a try!

Good Drinks. Good Food. Good Service!…read more Went here thanks to Tik Tok and Yelp, and did not regret it! All the food was good (Enchiladas, Fajitas, Streer Corn, Sweet Plantains).

Viva La Vida Mexican Bar and Grill is just what we need in our area. I'm so tired of tortillas that…read moretaste like paper and salsa that taste like ketchup. This restaurant bypasses all of that nonsense and serves good solid Mexican food. On top of all of that, Viva La Vida has superb customer service. If you're lucky enough to have a birthday when you go to the restaurant, the waitstaff will come and saying happy birthday to you along with the shot. Sorry, but you can't top that at any local Mexican restaurant. Additionally, the ambience of Viva La Vida is wonderful. The restaurant is moody and sexy looking, without all of that faux Mexican nonsense inside. We had a spectacular time there for my sister's birthday and we completely enjoyed our food. Viva love Vida is doing everything right with regards to their menu, service and the decor. Go check it out for yourselves and let me know what you think.

While flavor is fine, it's the same size you can buy at Chipotle for $3. Then, the queso fundido is bad. The queso isn't really melted, the flavor is missing, and they don't give tortillas to eat it with, just tortilla chips. For $14, this is really bad. The chips and salsa is again bad. The chips are so stale which is disappointing. Don't get the fajitas. I got the "mix 3" and ordered chicken and shrimp. There were 5 pieces of shrimp and a few measly, dry pieces of chicken. At $22, fajitas should also come with tortillas. But again, no tortillas are provided. Quite disappointing. Churros are decent and the chocolate ice cream is actually tasty (definitely store bought). Avoid this restaurant if you don't want to be scammed and left disappointed in the entire experience.

The refried beans with cheese, queso on top of the chimichanga, and plantains were amazing! Unfortunately, the carnitas were dry and bland as you can see pictured. The tortilla could have been cooked longer as well. The chorizo was surprisingly spicy and good. The prices seem high but you get a decent amount of meat. We'd go back again and try the brunch menu or another protein.

We love this placeeee!!!…read more They have a sister restaurant in Shadyside.. Tocayo... but Totopo is sooo much bigger. Right on the Main Street of Mt. Lebanon, we have been here a handful of times. The restaurant has won countless awards through the years and they deserve it. Right from the jump, you can see the modern and thematic choices that transport you into an ambiance worth the dining experience already. The staff is great, always attentive, and the wait staff constantly will check in on you. This trip, we had earned some rewards (they have an awesome reward program... who doesn't like free food) so we just wanted a quick bite. It was happy hour on apps, so we just got the Carnitas Nachos and Queso. They always give chips and salsa... which is soooo good. We almost ordered the table side fresh made guacamole but the nachos came with guacamole. Let's just say two apps... STUFFEEEEDDDD us. Everything was so good. The carnitas had a wonderful smoky taste and was so juicy. Everything was fresh made. We ate and left happy for only $3.

I came for their taco tuesday deal where if you get 2 tacos, you get the 3rd for free (listed as…read more$12.95 on their menu). These tacos are made Mexican style, meaning it comes with onions and cilantro with lime on the side. It also came with a side of grilled onions and potatoes. The potatoes were too soft in my opinion. I think if you were going for grilled side veggies, it's better to make it a tad crispy and browned. For the Taco Tuesday Special, I got the al pastor, steak fajita, and chicken tinga tacos. The best one had to be the al pastor because it wasn't dry and had lots of flavor. I opted for the red morita spicy sauce, and trust it actually has spice and kick to it. The tacos are double layered, which is nice. Decent meal for a Tuesday dinner, their menu is pretty basic for a taco place. For instance, their only dessert is churros with chocolate sauce.

The service is fast, they make it in front of you, and you have the option of picking some stuff up at the grocery store while you are there. Friendly family type ambiance and it feels good to know you are supporting a small business like this. At $4 a taco, when they are generous with the authentic meat filling, double up on the freshly grilled corn tortillas, and allow unlimited toppings made fresh daily make these tacos one of the best deals around. The filling is already super flavorful, so you don't necessarily need extra toppings, but I like adding extra onions and cilantro. For me, a lot of the salsas were extra spicy, so my recommendation is to taste them before putting them on the taco. The ones I got honestly didn't need any extra added flavor. I got the steak and onions and the pork with pineapple and loved them both equally. I got them last week and already miss them - the smell and texture of the meat, the fresh toppings, how your breath tastes after, the combo of everything together - definitely a solid taco joint
