We were looking for a real Mexican meal. Wow, we got one. The service was perfect. The Entre was so classic and well done. They really have it down. In Vegas? Go off the strip to the best I have ever had. viva Michoacan! More

I have eaten there about a dozen times over the years and never, never had a bad meal. Much better than Super Mex, or Macao Vegas, or Baja Fresh. I usually had the burritos. It is better than a Cheese Cake Factory too who has well made Mexican fare too. More

A bit of a drive from the Strip, it's a great place to come for lunch. For around $10, you can get a main course and a soft drink along with their wonderful chips, bean dip and spicy salsa. Service is excellent and the views are the best in LV - you can watch planes approach and land at the... More

Michoacan @ 645 Carnegie Street Enjoy the view and excellent Mexican food. I am not so crazy about Mexican food, becuse I have probelms digesting corn, and most of Mexican food is made with corn. But here in Lindo Michoacan you had a choice of corn or wheat, or just pick something like Mariachi Band and tequila instead of food... More

I come here at least once a month. They have the best margaritas - order it with Don Julio Aniejo on the rocks. Outside of Puebla, Mexico this is the best Mexican food I've had and yes it is Mexican rather than TexMex. So be prepared to have fabulous seafood (go for the stuffed fish fillet), langua chipotle and ensalada... More

A good restaurant. Decent food. Nothing special at all in any form. Most local mexican restaurants are the same as this one food wise. They do have a marache duo performing. I recommend because there is no neutral thumb option. An average place, not good but not bad either. More

After a delicious, pleasant visit in Jan 2009, we looked forward to a return visit in Jan 2010. We visited early on a Friday, just before 5PM. There was one other couple dining. We were seated quickly, and several servers asked us for our beverage order, in quick succession. We were tired from a long week, and needed a few... More

We found this restaurant after visiting the Ethel M Chocolate Factory and lighted cactus garden - it's just a block or two away. The service, food and prices were all excellent. The lovely mariachi band topped off a very enjoyable evening. More

I went to Viva two weeks ago. The servers are the same and what used to be great service was so-so at best. I was plesantly surprised to see a new lower priced menu until our food arrived. I ordered Chile Rellenos and my husband a Carne Nacho. My Relleno had a distinct flavor of freezer burn and the quality... More
