Viva la vida - mexikanisches Restaurant - mexican Food — Restaurant in Ramstein-Miesenbach

From the moment I stepped into "Viva la Vida" nestled in the quaint town of Ramstein-Miesenbach, I was transported to a vibrant world where every bite is a celebration of life. This gem of a restaurant is more than just a place to eat; it's a destination that promises and delivers an authentic Mexican culinary experience, wrapped in warmth and the enchanting allure of Latino magic.

The food at "Viva la Vida" is nothing short of excellent. Each dish is a masterpiece, crafted with the finest ingredients and an evident passion for Mexican cuisine.

We came on a Thursday evening in August without reservations. The place was pretty busy but we were seated. The waitress took the order and got us the drinks. After waiting 45 minutes, food was still not served, my friend asked for another beer, but the waitress forgot and we waited another 20 minutes. … The food still did not come but the waitress asked if everything was okay and how was the food…? We told her that we were still waiting on the food and even on the second beer as well… Then, at least the beer came quickly and was free. But it was obvious they forgot our food order. After another 15 minutes one of the waitresses brought two plates to our table. I asked her what this is and she could not tell me, neither in English nor in German. So the food sat in front of us on the table for a few minutes until another waitress came and explained what it was. We told her that we ordered something completely different, that’s when the head waitress shouted from the back of the restaurant that this food was for another table…… so they took it over to the right table… And so we had to wait again… Finally, after what felt like an eternity, our food came. My veggie chimichanga was without beans, which I asked for in addition and wanted when I placed my order and was assured that „they all come with beans“. Well, mine did not… It tasted okay, but was not very big and for € 15.40 too expensive in my opinion.

To sum it up, the food was just okay, overpriced in my opinion and the service just terrible. All in all I cannot recommend this restaurant anymore. It was much much better and cheaper in the past when it was called Pancho Villa. We will...

Tried this place on a whim and was filled with disappointment for the food quality and the management. The salsa was horribly sweet, the guacamole tasted as if it came out of a packet from a grocery store, and the tortilla chips clearly came from an old stale bag. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and received a quesadilla with chicken nugget sized slices of chicken stuffed inside that were lacking in flavor, with slimy cooked lettuce inside of the quesadilla and minimal cheese. They then plopped the sour cream and salsa on top of the quesadilla so it was already soggy on both sides when it arrived to the table. I took one bite and could not eat it. The waitress was kind enough to inform us that she was reaching out to the owner to request to remove it from our bill since I had one bite and did not like it, but was told by the owner to charge full price regardless. Incredibly disappointing. In addition to the creatively bad recipes, we found the place to be dirty and unnecessarily hot. They have multiple fans which are needed in 35° weather, none of which were turned on. They had a few doors open which allowed for flies to swarm throughout the inside of the establishment. The floors had food on them despite the restaurant being mostly empty. I’d recommend Taco Bell before I...
