Viva — Restaurant in Davenport

The staff tries hard, but this place just isn't worth it. I don't see it being around very long.

There are more tequilas on the menu then actual food. And the food offerings are just... Odd. You can tell they were trying for some high class Mexican fusion cuisine, but it just didn't work.

Our experience. Party of 10+ on a weeknight. We had reservations. The menu doesn't describe the food well, and had to be explained. Lots of questions. They have one actual steak dish on the menu, but they ran out. According to the server, they had been out of steak for several days.

Some of our dishes arrived to the table cold and sloppy. They serve chips and salsa. The chips were stale and tasteless.

Environment... It looks like a hotel lobby. White Stone walls and floors. Very artistic light fixtures. In general very bright, white and clean. It echoed a lot and was hard to hear.

All in all, the staff tries hard, but it's just not worth it. I won't be going back and I don't recommend it to...

I was with a group of about 20 people for work meetings. The manager was informed earlier that day we would be coming in for dinner and drinks and she promised they would be ready with extra wait staff and bartenders. Unfortunately this was not the case. We were seated immediately but our drink orders were not taken for at least 20 minutes after we sat down. Our meal orders were not taken for at least another 20-30 min. The waitress that was serving us did the best she could under the circumstances and we have no complaints against her. The other employees and the manager on duty did absolutely nothing to help this poor girl. Not only were we not happy with the service the food was not good. It had no flavor and just very bland. I personally will never step foot in your doors again and I know others I was with had said...

I brought my out-of-town guest to Viva because the food has always been excellent. (The service has always been slow, however.) Our waitress forgot about us because she was dealing with a wedding party. The food was exceptionally spicy. I love spicy food but this was inedible. I grabbed a pitcher of water off the bar because our water glasses had not been refilled during the entire meal. We continued to wait for our bill for quite awhile (20 minutes?). It wasn’t until a manager of the Current walked by and saw us looking displeased that our waitress came to our table with our check and apologized that she’s so busy, she forgot about us. There was other wait staff, standing around talking. I’ve never not left a tip for wait staff until that night. The decor and ambiance is nice. Oh and the salsa and guacamole are...
