Viva Mexico

Tiny in size but big on portions and flavor, this is the place to try home-cooked, authentic Mexican grub. For years, transplants have been dreaming about more spots like this - no-frills, fast food Mexican staples with all the fixins’ - and now they have it. The tchotchke decor is fitting for the hole-in-the-wall space, but the menu brings the authentic heat: piles of nachos topped with queso and juicy carne asada; flautas, deep-fried and filled with cheese, sour cream and homemade salsa; and burritos hand-crafted from expertly-made tortillas.
