About Vivo Modern Tex Mex
Vivo is located in North Central Austin in the Lincoln Center off IH35, just a short block North of Hwy 290 and across from the Austin Community College’s Highland campus. The restaurant features dark red walls, modern art and lighting, and table cloths and candles at night. They’re open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner with an active brunch scene on the weekends.

The Menu at Vivo
The menu features classic Tex Mex options like enchiladas, tacos, and combo plates. They also offer a few designer entrees like the Shrimp Relleno with a grilled poblano pepper stuffed with shrimp and queso Oaxaca topped with a spicy roasted pepper cream sauce for $15.95 and Pollo Vivo with grilled chicken breast covered with tomatillo sauce, monterrey jack, and avocado slices for $11.95. Both dishes come with rice and beans. Vivo also offers some killer margaritas that we highly recommend you try. Here’s a link to the menu section on their website.

The food was cooked to perfection, the hosts, servers, and other staff were very hard working and attentive. The drinks were cold and filled with tequila. It was a great experience.

This place is somewhat hidden in an old strip mall that's being revitalized. The enchiladas we're really good. The interior is suprisingly upscale, but still fine for a casual lunch. I definitely want to go back and try some.other items.

texmex and the feeling at this place is excellent. Visited on Sat I believe. The place has an awesome feel to it. Feels similar to a restaurant in New York I liked.

This is by far my favorite Mexican restaurant in Austin. The chips are wonderful and the salsa is great. I always get a Verde enchilada and a chicken puffy taco, always wonderful.

I really enjoyed the time eating here with my wife on our 3rd wedding anniversary. Although it wasn't nicely setup like their Cedar Park one, the food and drinks were still spot on. Their food is really delicious. Their drinks are great too. I had the Mexican Martini and I wish I would have started with that one. I felt like I wasnt going to be able to finish a great drink. When we arrived the place was kind of humid so I am not sure if they had A/C problems. Like I said my wife and I had came here to celebrate our 3rd anniversary. She had her doubts as we waited because it wasn't the same cool atmosphere as the one they used to have in Cedar Park. However I am glad we waited and look forward to coming here again.

This place has INCREDIBLE drinks and the food was to die for. I recommend the puffy tacos and Chipotle enchiladas.

The lunch special had drinks that were tasty. The salad was loaded with meat. The food was good. The employees were efficient but didn't seem happy to be there...

I really loved the old location but this newer location is great. It’s the same delicious food and drink without having to struggle to find parking or the long wait like before. The salsa is so good, I look forward to it every time! The fiesta salad is my favorite, it’s huge and super delicious.

Really awesome margaritas, especially during their happy hour. Their food is very tasty as well, my BF, friends, and I love coming here.
