Editorial Review for Viva Burrito – by Dave Flomberg
In Short
There's no money wasted on frills here--the stores are simple, unmarked buildings--save for the sign--and they're always open. The expansive menu has everything from tacos and burritos to chimichangas, enchiladas, nachos and much more. And all of it is low-priced and comes in large portions. There are also five different breakfast burritos, served any time. Each of the burritos features eggs, potatoes and a another item: bacon, sausage, chorizo, bean and carnitas.

Viva Burrito is bad! (pardon the spelling to come ) My god... I tried Viva Burrito today off a recommendation as the "best breakfast burrito in Denver". It's not too far from my house so I was eagerly looking forward to it. I ordered 2 burritos to try them both and get the "best" of Denver. Boy did those burritos blo! They were probably the second worse burritos that I've ever eaten. (1st place goes to a 4 hour old cafeteria burrito that I had at a customer site this year) The only reason that Viva didn't take the cake on the 1st place for worst breakfast burritos is because their burritos didn't sit under a lamp for 4 hours... They tasted like garbage but the nasty burrito was at least fresh... no translucent shell... and no heat lamp burnt corners. I ordered the letter A & the letter D (but got a B despite me using the word "D" as in DAVID). The "B" that I didn't order was the dryest burrito that I've ever had. Potatoes, Sausage, Cheese(never saw it)egg, It was soooo dry and the tortilla tasted of pure lard. I ate half of the burrito before deciding not to waste the calories on it and I tried the second. The A burrito had beans, egg, and cheese... It didn't blo quite as bad since it had a little bit of moisture but it only tasted like beans and eggs.... I got close to finishing this burrito out of pure hunger before I got home and realized that they included some salsa in the bag. I tried pouring the salsa on the B burrito and eatting it again... it was still bad... The salsa was like water and didn't have any taste. I'm shocked that these breakfast burritos were voted best in Denver. I remember reading an article comparing Viva to Taco Bell... I'd have to disagree and say that I would take a Taco Bell burrito any day over this garbage. If you've had food poisening and don't want to eat anything with flavor go for the B on their menu and hold the sausage. It'll be like eating saltine crackers... only not as enjoyable with the salt.

The carne asada burrito is delicious. If you're going to compare Viva Burrito to Taco Bell you will find that they taste nothing alike. It's not americanized Mexican food, which makes it unique and delicious. And it's open 24 hours so it makes it even better. The service isn't all that great, and its a little run down... but then again so is every other fast food restaurant around here. Just try it, and make up your own mind.
Pros: Tastes Great and it's cheap!
Cons: Service isn't that great, a little run down.
