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.

Cheese enchiladas were delicious. I really enjoy the consistency and level of spice the salsa has. Due to 19 you can now get margaritas to go...I was headed into work so didmt get to try that out.

Great authentic food, and a good happy hour. Cozy atmosphere, table and booth seating. Staff are super nice and take time to go over the menu.

Had dinner last night at this place with a friend of mine for the first time. I must say, both of the salsas were amazing in flavor. The green one had stronger kick. I was so impressed by the flavor of the salsas, I forgot to take a picture of my meal, Emma's Plate. It consisted of a Puffy Taco and a Enchilada which also was amazing! This place is my go to Mexican restaurant in Austin now.

Everything made in house. Bartender was awesome. Typically, I do Mexican about once a month. This place warranted a second visit and the food and service was great both nights

Best Tex-Mex place I've been to in a long time. Enchiladas and puffy taco were excellent. I will definitely be returning.

Nice cozy place I loved the atmosphere the music. The service was ok could have been better a little slow the food was good. I'd like to try some of the other dishes so many to choose from maybe service will be better everyone deserves and 2nd chance right. The food was good enough for me to want to return.

I've been going to Vivo since the days when they were formerly located on Manor Road. I can always count on a good atmosphere, delicious food and a friendly and attentive wait staff.

Great happy hour choice. Best cucumber margarita in town. Dinner is not exceptional but very affordable and still tasty.

This is a small, hole-in-the-wall restaurant and I love it! The atmosphere and food is authentic. The staff is friendly. You get free chips and salsa, home made, brought to you. My fav is the enchiladas with green sauce. Mmmmmm.
