Really excellent Mexican food . I'm from the US south west where Mexican food is everywhere, but here in NZ good Mexican is hard to find. Tried lots in Auckland and this is clearly the best!

Quin Marshall

The menu on the website isn’t necessarily what they’ll have. Specials appear to change. I had the special of chicken enchiladas in black bean sauce (enfrijoladas ), and they were excellent!

Brett Jones

Tacos were amazing. Nasty Beans were nasty in a good way! The home-made hot sauce hot and tasty. Worth the extra $$$.

Viva Mexico is one of Wellington’s very best cheap and cheerful spots and, in this reviewer's opinion, the best Mexican restaurant in the capital. Read more

Andrew Burns

I thought it was really enjoyable. Delicious, pared-down Mexican cuisine . Portion sizes were on the small side. My dining-mates were not impressed with the tacos . But enchiladas were delicious.

Mike Penhall

Get the chilli beer . Reasonably expensive at $11 but the perfect complement to the spicy food . You'll be glad you did!

Chema Gómez

As the blackboard proudly notes, "if you are in a hurry, forget about it.". Enjoy the slow!

So much goodness! Divorced eggs , cheesy enchiladas & black enchiladas . Beware the limited opening hours, though.
