    Amazing!!!! The place is located near 8cigars inside of resort world hotel. Modern Mexican food, must try their Tuna tostada, wagyu tacos. Their drinks are good and the price is reasonable. Highly recommended.

    We decided to try this place for dinner as it was in our hotel at resort world. I forgot our server's name but the nice girl was so kind and informative when we asked for recommendations from the menu. The other staff who helped us serve the food, water and checked in on us was also very kind. 10/10 for staff! Now onto the foood: The chips and salsa, it was so tasty. I give it 10/10. My favorites were the fish ceviche - I usually have shrimp but this was so much better. We got the Esquites appetizer and it paired well to share and went well with my Birria tacos. Definitely will be back!

    Shrimp cocktail, and ceviche

    I've been here a couple of times when visiting Vegas and it's always been a good experience. This time we ordered the shrimp cocktail, which was really good, and the ceviche. If you like a coconut milk style ceviche, you'll definitely enjoy it -- it was flavorful and really yummy. We also got the chips and guacamole, which were fresh with a nice lemony taste that made them stand out. We had a couple of Palomas as well, and they were refreshing and well made. Overall, everything was solid and the experience was enjoyable. I'd definitely recommend Viva if you're in the area and looking for a good Mexican spot with great flavors and drinks.

    Short and sweet version: Food and drinks are delicious, servers are friendly and attentive, and the vibe is really cool! This restaurant is inside Resorts World and I went here twice during my stay because I liked it so much. They have a great happy hour too!

    Happy Hour menu

    We came for happy hour from 3-5p on a Saturday. Bar seating only, small but good menu of one cocktail plus beer and wine, and small plates including oysters. Good service, the steak taco was a bit salty but everything overall was great. Nice decor and lively Latin music playing.

    My friend Mat and I decided to stop at the brand new resort world hotel on Vegas. Lately I've been craving a Spanish drink so we stopped at Viva. I got the Blanco sangria which also has apricot juice in it and my friend Matt got a Coke and grenadine. Sangria is late and refreshing and very tasty. The fruits on top are lemon, apple and grapefruit. They have about two bartenders working a 360° bar and the bar is a little bit packed but mostly with businessmen. The ambience of this bar is an indoor and outdoor vibe with lively Spanish music and very fun, cultural decor. My bartender this evening Marq. We spoke a little bit about the hotel and he is very charismatic and very nice. 10/10

    I am blown away how everything was so delicious here! Food Everything felt and tasted authentic. Surprisingly good for hotel restaurant quality now in Vegas. The appetizer that was included with their chicharron chips was fresh with their tasty hot sauce. -all dishes were muyyy RiCo! Service Very attentive staff to our waiter, water refills was great. Everyone was professional and friendly. Ambience Felt inviting and warm. Beautiful decor and comfortable seating areas. Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for authentic dishes and presentation.

    Vegan Tamale

    What was supposed to be a team dinner turned into a train wreck of an experience. Originally, we had reservations for 6:30 pm for 5 guests, but the team wanted to eat earlier, so we changed the reservation to 5 pm. The table for 5 at 5 pm was not comfortable. It was a two seat and booth with a chair added at the end. I don't know why we received this type of seating, as it was very cramped. More to come about that later. The guacamole was very good and had a little kick. I did not try the chip,s though. The white Sangria ordered by one of the dinner guests was not to her liking. Before I go any further. I picked VIVA due to it being inside Resorts World, and I believed that there was something on the menu for everyone, including several vegan options for myself. Boy, was I wrong VIVA does not accommodate off-menu changes or milder versions of any of its dishes. The 'Enchiladas De Pollo' featuring chicken, Requeson, Feta, Red Onion, Refried Lentils, and Arroz for $30.00 has a very spicy red sauce that cannot be altered in any way. The two diners attempted to change out beans for rice, and no veggies for the fajitas, and the server was doing her best to make as many allowed accommodations as possible. The diner who wanted the enchiladas gave up and didn't order anything. My vegan tamale was very good, but not worth a $18.00 price tag and then $5 for blue corn tortillas. With the table being cramped, the staff was constantly at our table to pull plates, collect silverware, wipe crumbs, etc. We couldn't have had a moment to even discuss anything. The manager did come by to speak with the diner, but there was nothing but an apology. 4 diners, 1 Alcohol drink - $300.00 The dinner experience will go down as one of the worst experiences that I have been a part of, and I will probably have my dinner reservation privileges removed.

    Caesar salad with waygu beef
    Kevin I.

    This place is consistently solid -- I've been here a few times over the last couple of years, and it never disappoints. Today I went a little lighter since I was still full from my Thai lunch (see my previous review) and ordered the Caesar salad with added Wagyu beef. It was perfect. The Wagyu was tender and flavorful, and the salad was just what I needed. The side of chips and salsa rounded everything out and made the meal complete. Great food, great vibe -- always a reliable pick.

    Shrimp cocktail
    Sara C.

    Went for drinks and food and the experience was incredible. The server Kat was very attentive by making sure all of our needs were met and getting everything done in a timely fashion. She had amazing drink and food recommendations. The food was delicious we had different flavored margaritas and the dishes were all flavorful!

    Chicken Caesar salad
    Jennifer N.

    Great place to dine if you're staying at resorts world. They don't offer chips but highly recommend ordering chips and guacamole as a starter. The guacamole was my favorite part of the meal. Their happy hour consists of drink specials and small plates - including nachos, tacos, and a great Spanish version of ahi tuna poke on a crisp tortilla. Highly recommend that. I tried the Caesar salad but the dressing wasn't what I was expecting. Still good (the chicken was cooked PERFECTLY). I'd recommend their enchiladas, fish entrees and other items that I've had and haven't disappointed. Their bartenders are great if you're just wanting to stop in and sit at the bar. Great vibes. Good music... it can be loud in some areas so you can ask for a quieter spot if you need that.

    Tasty Margarita!!!
    Danielle H.

    First off... YESUA, ENZO and DANIELLE were soooooooo amazing!!!! Danielle greeted us with such a great smile and warm service. She made our drinks so tasty as well! Enzo was such a cool guy with a lot of knowledge about the place. He answered a lot of the questions we had and was just really fun guy to talk to! Yesua never steered us wrong in what to order and how things were made. He was super helpful with the menu items and made us feel at home. Customer service was top notch from the hostess (didn't get her name but she was so sweet!) and even the guy that brought us our food (funny guy that didn't make me feel like a big back for ordering everything twice!) Secondly....THE FOOD....FIRE! Every level of flavor and goodness that food can hit! My husband and I came here on our way to our room at Conrad World Resorts. We just happened to walk by during their happy hour after seeing a show at the Sphere. The prices looked great so we had to give this place a try. Being LA natives, we love some good Mexican food and were excited to try out what they had! We ordered the steak tacos that were made of wagu beef, and the QuesaBirria. As I'm writing this my mouth is watering again!!! The meat was so TENDER and had so much FLAVOR! Perfect amount of spice!! And the quesadillas....I just can't with these....AMAZING! I could've bathed in the consommé they had on the side We were so delighted to get such fantastic Mexican food here! No lie...some of the best I've had. We'll be coming back to try their chilaquiles and more for brunch! I high key wanna try EVERYTHING on the menu but alas...my wallet won't allow for that at the moment HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

    The short rib was unbelievably tender, moist with the beans.
    Nancy C.

    We came for an event at a conference and had the best time. The waitress was amazing and it was a beautiful space. Loved the food! We had some delicious apps to share. The guacamole was so fresh and creamy. The taquitos were so crispy and amazing. I love short rib and have to get it any time I. See it on a menu. The short rib was unbelievably tender, moist with the beans. We also got the cookies and churros which were out of this world. It's a bit expensive for regular people but so worth it. Unbelievable!

    Ask the Community - ¡VIVA!

    Is this place kid friendly?

    Yes, Viva is located at Resorts World LV which is kid friendly. The property offers both options for family and adults-only.

    How much are bottomless mimosas? I see on the menu 1 is $18.

    Do they take walk-in at all? Or reservation only?

    Walk ins were welcomed when I dined

    Is there any entree that is gluten free here? Does this restaurant use a shared fryer for things like flour taquitos that would cross contaminate gluten free corn tortilla chips? I have Celiac disease and have to eat gluten free.

    Even if a restaurant offers gluten free items, there is always the possibility of cross contamination. Your question would be best if you called the establishment and spoke directly to a manager.

    What is the difference between dining room and lounge seating when you make a reservation?

    Do they serve menudo at this place?

    No they do not

    Is this Restaurant Kid Friendly?

    I'm sure they allow well behaved kids, but it is a more upscale Mexican style restaurant that I wouldn't take kids to.

    What is the difference between lounge and Dining Room?

The venue itself is beautifully designed, with a more intimate, sophisticated feel compared to larger Las Vegas clubs. It's a great option if you're looking for something stylish with a strong music and ambiance focus. The overall vibe is smooth and elevated -- great music, well-dressed crowd, and an atmosphere that feels exclusive without being overwhelming. One thing worth noting is the camera policy. The venue emphasizes a no-camera experience, which I understand is meant to maintain privacy and keep the focus on the moment. However, I did notice a few cameras out and about during the night, which made the policy feel a bit inconsistent. Not a major issue, but something that stood out.

The Pinky Room is a jazz/live band club located in the heart of the Bellagio - closer to the exit towards the Caesar's Palace walkway. We waited in line on a Saturday evening right when this opened. We were told that this was the second anniversary of the Pink Room, so it was reportedly abnormally busy with us having to wait about an hour and 10 minutes before getting in. There was no cover charge, but there is a bouncer checking over your outfit. We weren't told exactly what wasn't allowed but supposedly they will check (saw a lot of the bouncers looking at shoes in particular). Once you are in, you got a stamp in case you need to step out to grab food or go to the restroom which is not in the club. The bar is set to the far side of the club with the bar area and dance floor set for general attendees. Most of the area though is for reserved tables that require higher drink minimums. The bar at the beginning of the night was easy to get to but once the band came on, it was a tough battle getting a drink as a regular attendee since most of the patrons were really squished in that area trying to watch the band. The band itself that we saw was great with reportedly Bruno's brother on the drums. It was a fun time and the acoustics were pretty good. The mocktail I had also wasn't bad with drink prices being normal Vegas Strip pricing. Again, love the concept and love live bands. Just think this venue is super squished and doesn't make as much sense for a normal patron versus having a table.

They even have a nice food menu where you can get some things like coconut shrimp to pair with your tropical drinks. They do have the famous Dole Whip here. They also have a happy hour during weekdays from 3-6 pm I think (don't quote me on this exactly LOL). It's often busy so if you want a table, I recommend making a reservation.
