Always a great experience here! The best food and too notch service. Pechuga de pollo is my favorite! Made with nopales, onion, green pepper, refried beans, rice, salad and guacamole. The enchiladas poblanas are also great and how about the margaritas are only 3.99 during happy hour! Gotta come back! read more

Order for delivery. The tortilla soup is literally just chicken and broth that lacked in flavor with a side of tortilla strips, cheese, and avocado. Agua fresca is not homemade. The fajita plate came with 1 single shrimp. The "large" queso was more like a small size and the quesadilla was small for $4 and lacked flavor. read more

Quick call in order using the Yelp app to test it out and assess! Quick and easy process! Food was prepared quickly and not too bad. Definitely have had better migas being in Houston. But it hit the spot for what I was craving for breakfast! Service was great and other patrons inside seemed to enjoy the ambiance and food! read more

I worked at the beauty store on the other side of the strip. Everytime I went in they greeted me and were so sweet! Even through the phone they're very patient and knowledgeable with their dishes if you have any questions. The food is always great and the aguas frescas NEVER Disappoint. read more

Las tortillas no son de las buenas son de paquete las de harina se ponen super duras. Los desayunos es mas papas Que huevo y caro para lo Que es los jugos no son naturales en pura agua con azucar y sabor falso. Y esta caro para la calidad read more

La comida es muy buena realmente Mexicana. El servicio puedo decir que es bueno. Y el ambiente es muy tranquilo y familiar.

I've had pretty much the full menu over the years. It's pretty good. I really like they're breakfast. Service is usually nice, but could be better. The green salsa is yum & food is pretty good. But it used to taste way better. This place has been here for years. And over time it's gone from oh yeah to alright. Every now & then I order from Jalisco using an app. From my experience, dine in is better. Using delivery service my order tends to be incorrect, items missing & yeah a lil stingy on portions at times. But it's still better than ordering taco bell. In all this is still a good spot to stop & grab a quick bite at a good price. Yelp on my friends! read more

Where in gods green earth can you find an amazing homemade breakfast for $4.49. You can find it here at viva Jalisco. The food is absolutely amazing, the prices are amazing, and the people are very nice. Today I got the Huevos rancheros And I was very impressed with the price in the meal. Food: Eggs were cooked just like asked, Over hard. The sauce to use was very flavorful and tangy. I like them a lot. The dish comes with a side of fried potatoes beans and tortillas. I added two sides of bacon at $.99 for each side. My total cost for my meal was around seven dollars. The food was absolutely good, after looking at the menu it looks like they have some really great lunch specials as well. I'm really excited that I found this place because I look forward to trying more things off the menu. They have a very extensive menu and from the pictures on yelp they look really good. I'm gonna have to try them out for lunch soon. Service: the people that answer the phone are really nice. My order was ready in about six minutes. These guys are on the ball. They answer the phones take your order and get your food prepared. Restaurant can really learn a thing or two from this company. They understand customer service, they understand pricing, and they also understand how to cook really good food. I am really impressed on how they run this business here. I hope the owner sees this and really commands employees because they are doing a great job. It's either family owned or they have been trained to treat the business like it's their own. Whoever runs this business should be very thankful for their employees. I'm telling you they're doing a really good job here. If you've never tried this place I suggest you give them a try. Simply on price alone but once you try their food you'll realize that you're getting a hell of a deal. read more

It's sort of a little hole in the wall, but the food was great. Service was ok. Nothing bad, nothing really good either. They did their jobs, which I was ok with. Complimentary chips and salsa were good. Both the green and red salsas had a kick, but not overwhelmingly so. We had chile con queso to share as an appetizer. I got the carne guisada, which was fantastic. The meat was tender and had a great flavor. It came with rice, beans, a little salad, and tortillas. I ate pretty much all of it. I also had a Dos XX michelada. It hit the spot after a long day. I got to try a bite of my friend's carnitas too. It was very good as well. Overall, it was a good experience and I'll definitely be going back. read more

My initial review was poor; however, after giving it another shot- this is a great stop if you want something quick.

This business charges a DEBIT CARD PROCESSING FEE. 1. It's illegal to charge a surcharge in DEBIT cards. Only allowed on credit cards. But they charge it in Debit cards and they don't have to pay it to anyone else to they are effectively stealing money from customers. 2. They bait you with prices on the the menu and don't disclose the price of you pay with a credit/debit card until you get the bill. Under the current law this practice is also illegal. The price difference must also be disclosed upfront BEFORE a purchase is made. read more

The food is good. However, you can not talk to your company because of the extremely loud radio station they are playing in the taqueria. When I asked one of the waiters to please turn it down a little, he turned up louder. That is bad service! I am not going back to Taqueria Viva Jalisco. read more

Customer service sucks! Food ok but not too authentic!. Too pricey for a taqueria atmosphere.

Sad to say this is the last time I'm ordering delivery. Missing more than half my order food extremely damaged they need better packaging come on do better read more

Living in the area, I see so many restaurant establishments fail in this infamous corner of Bammel and Veterans Memorial. But Viva Jalisco has managed to pull it though and be a permanent local favorite for many. I believe this is their second or third location from the original Viva Jalisco on Jones and Grant and after seeing how busy it gets I finally wanted to give this place a try after a long day of soccer practice. Came in here with my kids and the service was great. I loved how our servers interact with my kids as we all attempt to teach them Spanish and they are so patient with helping them out with their second Language as they order. "Tacos deh Fajita poor-fay-vor" Since I am a more "authentic" Tex-Mex than my children I sticked to one of my classic favorites, Carne Guisada with beans and rice. (Side salad included too). Their natural waters are delicious, my personal fave are both the Limeade and Pineapple. The salsa to me is what truly defines if the place will work out for us, we love chips and salsa, I always order extra to pour all over my food and Viva Jalisco does not disappoint in their tasty salsa. Salsa Roja is not too spicy but not mild, just perfect for dipping my chips until my tongue starts getting hot. I love coming here since their prices are also reasonable and don't have to burn a hole in my pocket on a Thursday night after a long day of practice. Safe to say, Viva Jalisco is here to Stay. read more

I was introduced to this restaurant by a friend. This restaurant has a lot of seating. It's actually on Bammel North Houston and not on Veterans Memorial. Don't blink otherwise you might pass it. The plates are big, and the prices are great especially for lunch. For the size of the restaurant and how busy they are, they could use more wait staff. You have to remember to pay at the desk near the entrance. They have some sweet treats as well for sale on the counter. Very nice staff and the food comes out very quickly, and tastes good. I've been here a few times and if I'm in the area and really hungry I would come back again. Enjoy! read more

We've passed by this restaurant so many times and have wondered whats inside and is it good . If you're like us, GO!! You won't be disappointed. The food is authentic. Mi casa is su casa feeling that they truly care about their customers. It's my first time and I was warmly welcomed. My Darling Husband loves the breakfast tacos here. So we visit about 3 times a week for breakfast :) read more

I ordered through Grubhub and picked up myself because it is near my house and when I've tried to call in orders they usually have trouble understanding me because I don't really speak Spanish fluently so to save a headache for me and then I ordered online. I went to pickup and it wasn't a long wait time to pickup the order however once I got in my car and checked my order it was wrong. I went ahead and went back in for them to remake only the tacos that they made wrong, not my entire order. I'm not a hard***. After a few minutes I got a bag with the tacos I thought they remade however once I got home I was surprised to see that all they had done was remove the stuff put on them so they had pieces of lettuce tomato and cilantro onions etc on them instead of being plain how I ordered them. They were also soggy now which really sucked. So needless to say I don't recommend this place only thing decent we're the refried beans. And to be that rude and not be able to just remake my food that they made a mistake on because even in the order it clearly stated plain. Anyways don't waste your time. read more

I usually don't write reviews but this is literally unseasoned Mexican food save your money! I'm not Mexican but Ive had many delicious authentic dishes and this was sooooo disappointing. The food looked nothing like the menu and the tres leches was dry and looked like a regular piece of cake for $4!! I've had amazing mouth watering tortas BUT THIS ONE was definitely far far from mouth watering. My flautas had no texture it literally was soggy. Omg never again. If you like unseasoned food this place is for you. read more

This was really satisfying Mexican food. Green and red salsas both had a good flavor and everything else was cheesy goodness. The prices are also reasonable. They don't even upcharge for fajita beef versus ground beef. Service was good and it was an all around nice little place. Wish I had tried it sooner. read more

This place is awesome! Waiters are very sweet. You get chips and salsa dips that are very good. Food comes out fast. If you get a platter that comes with rice and bean, know that it's kinda bland but it balances out with the rest of the food. Enchiladas, tacos, soup, nachos, & meat is all good. But they do charge for stuff like sour cream. read more

Viva Jalisco - So good!!! - Mexican Near Me - Houston, Texas

Worst service from Hugero (I'm assuming the manager on duty). I got the less than stellar beef soft tacos, the meat didn't taste right not edible (possibly from another animal - not cow). To compensate I filled up with my chips, rice, and beans. I decided to take my coke to go however had a change of heart and asked my waitress to switch my coke to a "to go" Dr Pepper. As we checked out I noticed we got charged for 2 drinks one for my coke and one for my to go Dr Pepper. A man by the name of Hugero yelled you get charged for 2 drinks because you switched your drink. I explained to him this didn't make sense, I changed my mind. He became enraged and yelled once more DID YOU TELL SOMEONE YOU HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE COKE"!!??? At this point I had heard enough, I was embarrassed by how this man handled the situation. This place is an all together disappointment from the food to the drinks and especially the staff in particular Hugero. read more

I took my mom to this place for Mother's Day and it was horrible! We both ordered taco salads and the menu indicated that all specialties come with beans and rice, even though the first item which happened to be the taco salad had a small disclaimer which said no beans and rice included. How silly is that?? When our food came out, the taco shell was really burnt and charred. We mentioned it to the waitress and she blamed it on the cook but didn't want to change it out. The lettuce was terrible and there was hardly any tomatoes or cheese. The fajita chicken was old and very rubbery. I told the waitress, who didn't seem to understand and called someone else to interpret, and they brought tomatoes and chicken that were supposed to be a replacement to the mess up. The salad was still lackluster and a disappointment! When we got to the cash register, we encountered an issue with pricing where they added all types of things to the bill including the tomatoes and chicken which were supposed to be a replacement to the issue with the food. When we tried to correct them, they didn't care and had the worst customer service I have ever encountered. Katherine and Jazmin don't have one inkling of a clue as to how to treat a customer and were upset because of their mistake. They only took one charge off after arguing with us and saying she didn't care if I posted a review! Do not go to this place! They need to seriously reevaluate their food and customer service. Terrible experience. read more

This is a place me and my family go to all the time. It has great food a very open environment. As well as good staff. The quesadillas and soup is just two of the many good things on their menu. The only thing I would change is the karaoke on Friday nights is very loud but if you're into singing and not bothered by loud sound. This place is 9/10 read more

This place never disappoints for breakfast! I always order the Huevos a la mexicana! The red salsa is amazing!

My first time here and the experience was great. The waitress was friendly and efficient. The aguas frescas are actually made from scratch! I had the tamarind one and I was in heaven!
