Taqueria Viva Mexico makes really tasty burritos with generous portions and good prices. The staff is very friendly and helpful, they are really fast at preparing and getting the orders ready. I love the Bean & Cheese burrito with jalapeños accompanied with their red salsa.

The Rice okay. Flautas were wet from what they put on it so it fell apart. A big menu.The cheese Steak fries didn’t have much steak nor cheese but we’re probably the best thing I had. Employees were nice. Not crowded only 3 customers when I was there. Plenty of seating available. Does have 20oz bottles of coke zero so that bumped up the stars on the review. Also they have fountain drinks. Parking across the street if not available in front.

I came here and got a combo plate with ground beef enchilada and ground beef taco with refried beans and rice. The beans and rice was very flavorful but the enchilada and taco wasn’t good. The ground beef wasn’t seasoned and it seemed like it was twice cooked which dried it out and made not good. The enchilada red sauce wasn’t a good flavor either and the taco had the same quality of meat. Pittsburg ca had a location with the same name as this place and their food was absolutely AWESOME but this place in Alameda is not even close. I’m giving it two stars because the lady working the cash register was really friendly and nice. When you get Mexican food the sauce and the meat has to be seasoned,fresh cooked and flavorful to win the taste war. I might try something else here to see if it’s better but hopefully they see this review and step their game up. I wasn’t happy overall with the taste of my main course.

A very good authentic Taqueria in the heart of downtown Alameda. A big menu and many tasty salsas at the salsa bar! I got a veggie burrito with pinto beans and it was excelente! The horchata drink was good too. The place is pretty well maintained. A good spot for a quick, no frills burrito experience.

Great for a quick bite. Great, friendly service. We will definitely be going back for a meal. The best quesadilla I’ve had in a long time.

Staff is always friendly, wait time is never unbearable, and good is always fresh and made to order. I’ve tried a variety of items and have enjoyed them all. Portions are generous, and prices won’t break your bank

I was very impressed with Viva Mexico! I ordered a pastor taco and a chili verde enchilada. The taco was phenomenal and I would definitely order one next time. The tacos are also big and filling. The enchilada was also good. I was not overly impressed with the rice, though. I also tried a ceviche tostada and it was very fresh, delicious and filling. I will definitely come here again.
