Very authentic! I was with some Mexican and Mexican Americans and they seemed to really appreciate the food. We went there... because (I was told) the chocolate was very good. It took a looong time but it was good. They love cilantro here so if you?repart of the 14% of the population sensitive to aldehydes then make sure you say no cilantro! I?m part of the 14%! The portionswere large! Except for the guacamole which went way too fast and was delicious. I usually love black beans but these tasted likethey were cooked with lots of cilantro Maybe epazote? But way too much. The tortillas were very obviously made on site! Butthe people I was with expect that since they make fresh tortillas at home daily. My only complaint was how long it took. We werewith a couple of little kids - always less patient with food. Oh, and once again if you?re vegetarian don?t eat the rice. It haschicken stock or chicken flavoring. I believe the ench sauce does too. I?ll be back. Read more

Viva Great Food! We ventured out seeking some Tex-Mex for lunch in downtown Albany and decided to try Viva Cinco De Mayo... (VCDM). I figured a 4.4 review on Google meant something and it does. VCDM offers a great variety of dishes including optionsfor vegetarians, a few breakfast selections, and a dedicated lunch menu. We chose the enchilada and chimichanga platters. Theenchiladas platter comes with three (the lunch menu offers two) and can be topped with any combination of their green, red, orbean sauce; we weren?t quite sure if you could mix the meats. Both platters came with sides of rice and black beans. My husbandchose chicken as the protein and tried each of the different sauces. Served atop the sauces is a layer of finely choppedlettuce, a sprinkling of cheese, and a drizzle of sour cream. His favorite sauce was the bean sauce but said the other two weregood. It was just something about the bean sauce which was a bit better tasting. My carnitas chimichanga came out golden brownwith a side of guacamole and a sliced radish on top of the rice which made for a pleasant-looking dish. It came stuffed full ofgreen peppers, onion, red peppers, cheese, and meat. I opted to leave out the green peppers. The only downfall to the dish wasthey may have doubled up on the red peppers since I asked to forego the green ones; the red peppers were a bit overwhelming.Aside from that, it was delicious as the cheese was melted and stringy and the pork cooked well and perfectly seasoned. We boththoroughly enjoyed the black beans as it seems they add a touch of cacao. They offer Mexican Coca-Cola by the bottle and freechips and salsa. They do quite a bit of take-out business which may have slowed the kitchen as it seemed like the food took abit of time to arrive. The delay was not an issue, however, as we were sitting outside enjoying the nice weather and the fooditself was worth the wait. Our server was quite pleasant and helpful, and the restaurant looks to be well Read more
