We have so many choices for Mexican food in Greenville. Today we decided to try Viva Villa in Mauldin. Now let's be clear- we are Las Meras Tortas fans to be sure but man- let's talk about the tacos at this place- to die for. We had the Asada, Pastor, and Carnitas tacos. The meat was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of fresh onions and cilantro. The presentation was nice as well with a roasted jalapeño and onion. The service was fast and efficient. The chips were nice and hot and the salsa was mild but super flavorful.

The tacos were good and not stingy with the fillings. My hub loves the California burrito which is like a big fajita wrapped up with all the toppings. The chips are fresh and service was very friendly. We first sat in a booth that had a broken seat so maybe the interior could use some sprucing up, but there's a large deck with lots of tables for when it's nice outside.

Beef enchiladas, queso,

We just moved to the area and wanted to find good Mexican food close by. We had an amazing experience and cannot wait to be back. We ordered queso, chips, beef enchiladas, the Villa Special and skinny margaritas. Everything was great!

Super Coconut Shrimp served fast, hot and delicious! Outstanding Service with a Smile. Cozy restaurant with excellent food and WiFi. Great ambiance!

The menus both food and drinks  have a variety of items. I'm having a Dos Equis Ambar.

This is a quiet restaurant located in a small strip mall but accommodating a few outside tables and…read morepresenting a welcoming atmosphere. Upon entry to my right is the much advertised salsa bar with about 8-10 choices ranging in heat levels, both green and red, and both creamy and not, and a mango salsa for good measure. It's all you want from the salsa bar to accompany the free chips delivered to the table. I was meeting my middle son for dinner, just the two of us, and upon being seated, ordered a draft Negra Modelo, a darker beer, and it had been a while since I had one of these former favorites. "Small or large?" Was the question. "Large" was the answer. I think this beer was a 32 ounce beer! (See photo). I had two Tinga chicken street tacos and one asada steak taco, corn tortillas and as is the norm, cilantro and onions. My son had two asada and three pastor. Service was attentive but not too much so. A few families showed up for an early dinner. A few barflies hit the bar for a happy hour (Thursday). Restrooms are clean. Tacos were good, just a bit dry, salsas were good. Tortillas were a little drier than most. All in all a serviceable meal, nothing bad but nothing outstanding, good beer. I would definitely return, but it's not close to some of the best tacos in town.

The prices were good and the food was good. The Jamaica was decent which was a nice surprised and the fact a refill for it was $1 is amazing. Most places are more expensive. I got the pineapple Cancun and it as okay. Not amazing but good. The salad bar was amazing and I could have just eaten chips and salsa. My only real complaint is it was so hot in the room but it didn't stop people was coming it. I would absolutely so back to try other things and get some more Jamaica water.

Not your typical Mexican restaurant. You'll order when you walk in and will be assigned a table by…read morethe staff after that. Everyone is super friendly! Chips and salsa are not complimentary, but you do get these cute little wagon wheel looking chips called duros. They're like puffed air and remind me of pork rinds but not as crunchy and probably made from flour. The drinks are all delicious and strong. The margaritas are small but watch out, they'll sneak up on you! Lots of options. They specialize in tequila and mezcal with flights as an option. The bar is the spot to be; bartenders are friendly and they have small TVs to watch whatever sports are in season. The atmosphere is a little lacking in my opinion, but it's all about the food. Food is delicious and the portions are larger than expected. We got the chips and queso, Heidi's Flautas, soup of the day, and the Birria Egg Rolls. Too much food for 2 people so we took some home. Location is in a strip mall; parking is tight and can be a challenge. We won't let that stop us though! We will be back for those delicious Birria Egg Rolls and margaritas!

This is alright. It's definitely novel for a Mexican joint but it's an unwanted novelty. No…read morecomplementary chips, mid portions. Salsa was flat. Place was pretty packed all things considered.

It was nearing lunch hour and we considered Mexican food, intending to drive a few miles distance…read moreto another restaurant but chose to go here, across the street. We had not dined here in years, maybe as many as six or seven, primarily due to not wanting to fight traffic on Woodruff Road. We easily got here and chose a nice outdoor dining table, which surprisingly had little to no traffic noise and was quite pleasant. The standard salsa was slightly tangy and spicy with a front of the mouth heat, so i asked for the hotter version, thicker and more back of the throat, creeper heat. Mixing them is the move. The tacos tinga are stuffed full of tinga shredded chicken, two is enough, with creme fresh on top and served with double tortillas in a rack. I chose corn but flour tortillas are an option. These were good, juicy and flavorful. I would say a seven of ten, not overly a taste explosion but just a hint. The refried beans were a mix of refried puréed and whole beans and they were a ten of ten for flavor and texture. My wife enjoyed the chicken taco salad, chicken was tender and overall deemed "good" but not her favorite in town, yet still a repeatable option when nearby. We were immediately seated and served and our server was attentive through our meal. The table was very wobbly when seated, i fixed it, but the server noted my meddling with this and brought over napkins to help out, which was nice. The restaurant is clean and more upscale Mexican as a hacienda rather than the sometimes caricature Mexican decor of other places. In general, why did we wait so long to come back here? Probably because now I am retired and not in a hurry to get anywhere, so chilling at a hacienda for lunch is nice.

We love the food, it's delicious. They offer gluten free…read more But every time I ask for gluten free options, it's VERY CLEARLY a massive inconvenience to whatever waiter I'm talking to. I try so hard to never be demanding or unkind--I already hate having to be different. It's not a fad, it's celiac, I have no choice. It's extremely embarrassing and downright rude to be treated this way for simply asking a question. So if you're gluten free, they have great options, but it's very clear they do not like serving those with allergies.

The only thing I'd change is using fresh-caught shrimp to give it more of that seaside flavor. The whole red snapper with coconut sauce was also full of flavor.

Other things we liked: the decor was nice, our waitress was a friendly young lady who made the experience pleasant, and the restroom was very clean.

Our waiter was a superstar- in talking with him he shared he was from Ecuador and made suggestions for our lunch choice. We started with the beef and chicken empanadas- very good- and an order of maduros- ripe plantains. We should have stopped there because I was almost full at that point. For our entrees we chose shrimp mofongo- which we really see in small cities being that it is the national dish of Puerto Rico- and the paella for one. Both were wonderful. I would argue that the size of the paella should be be renamed as a lid of a trashcan serving. It was giant and we barely put a dent in it before asking for a to go box. I highly recommend this spot!
