Viva Taqueria & Cantina

Decent food but not amazing. Maybe understaffed because service was a little slow.

The Chicken tacos were wonderful!

Food was cold. Service was terrible.

Food warm, not hot. Chips and salsa only if you ask. I am okay with the girls in an Ivy League school complain about not getting in their prefer school. I am not okay with my tip questioned before I pay my bill. I am not okay bring short changed either.

Excellent and plentiful food portions. Fair prices. Great service. No waiting time (party of two) and the atmosphere was classic TexMex restaurant which I like. Well done.

We had a couple cocktails and a snack of nachos. Nachos were very good. Atmosphere was bright and cheerful. We sat outside. Our server was busy, and was okay. She could've been a little more attentive. Overall, everything was good.

Some of the worst tacos I've ever had at a place with taqueria in the name. Do you like vinegar? Then stop by! Everything tastes like vinegar from the pickling brine they use.

Food is just ok. Chips and guacamole and salsa portions are small. Sangria was watered down with so much ice it didn’t feel like sangria. Server was very serious smiled once when we paid. It was weird.

Convenient spot in downtown Ithaca, offers a nice atmosphere with typical college-town service. The food is good, nothing to write home about.

Returned after 25 years. Still as great as it was when I went to IC!

The service was very rude. We arrived, placed our order, and mentioned to the waitress that we had a flight to catch, asking if our food could be expedited. Her response was, "Sorry, we cannot do it, and I don’t have any ETA." This struck me as rude and unprofessional. A more hospitable response would have been to acknowledge the situation and at least check with the kitchen to see if anything could be done.

Great “mexithacan” food

A good option for Mexican food in Ithaca. The chicken and beef fajitas were pretty good. Staffs were attentive and friendly despite of being busy at the time.

Enjoyable and easy going atmosphere especially on a nice day! The staff is friendly and welcoming so that really helps it stand out as an excellent choice even multiple times a week. They have delicious freshly squeezed lemonade and the food is consistently great!

Food was okay but not wonderful. Service was good - although we were there mid afternoon so there wasn't a big crowd.
