Viva Mexico Croydon

We haven't had Mexican food for some time now so we decided to try out Viva Mexico in Main Street, Croydon yesterday. The first thing that caught my attention was the tiled floor. Somehow the floor and the metal frame chairs made the place look sparse and cold. But enough of that, we were there to try out the food.

I ordered an enchilada suprema, which had chunks of beef, frijoles (refried beans), cheese in an enchilada topped with tomato salsa, guacamole and sour cream. It was served with a side of rice.


The beef was real nice... they were chunks of beef which was tender and melted in the mouth. The beans were also cooked beautifully to melt in the mouth. I have absolutely no complaints about this dish. I loved the guacamole which tasted like it was freshly made on the premises.

Gaz ordered a burrito with beef. He had all the same ingredients as I did, sans guacamole. I did not try his dish since it looked the same, except with burritos. But he did try mine and said that my beef sauce was a little better than his. I was too full with my dish to ask him what he meant. There really was a lot of food on the plate!


I really liked the food and service at Viva Mexico. The waitpersons were very efficient and informative. If we get a hankering for some Mexican food, this will be the place to go back to!
