El mejor!

Posted by Banzai CB  from Ontario, CA  on August 7, 2008

I spent years trying to locate the best mexican restaurant in las vegas. finally, after talking to a local resident instead of a casino worker, i was told about viva mercados. and for more than a decade, it has held the top spot on my list. great food, great prices, a wonderful atmosphere and outstanding service. from their traditional combo plates to their variety of "seafood" and "house specialties," i can't believe anyone who enjoys this cuisine won't love this restaurant. the new location (3553 south rainbow blvd.) is open and provides much more room to accommodate the faithful and newcomers alike. it's worth the short trip from the strip!
