Simply delicious. Vivo Amigo Cardiff is a real find! From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the delicious food. Seriously, I couldn't decide what to order – everything sounded amazing! The prices were fair, so we need to visit again, multiple times to try it all. Their house cocktails are top-notch! Unfortunately they did forget a side dish, but honestly, the main portions were so generous, we hardly missed it. The staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home. I'd definitely recommend Vivo Amigo to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience in Cardiff! 5 stars all around.

Came here to try something different as the reviews were all good. The staff were lovely the place itself nice, but the food was a let down. Curry with Mexican does not go well at all, everything was with curry or spice. Food very Rich and not great tasting , and the nann bread is shop Bought from a packet . Ordered a crème boulle for desert, It was nothing like one. Very disappointing , glad we had the offer as I would be more gutted paying full price. And a bottle of SMALl cheep Spanish bear for £4.50😳wow. The pic is a crème brûlée , it was an ice cream cone with cream and jam in it. I think you either go to a curry or a Mexican restaurant, the both together idea I think is disappointing.

Wow. Very rarely I leave a review but myself and my partner felt that we definitely had to for vivo amigo! Randomly booked after a shopping trip on our way home after seeing a couple of reviews on trip advisor and the curiosity of Mexican Indian cuisine was very intreging. We felt everything was a 10/10. The service was second to none, we cant remember his name, but what an attentive gentleman. We then indulged in a three course meal and couldn't say one negative thing about any of it. Everything was so tasty and a lovely touch with a free slice of cake for valentines! More than reasonable pricing for good quality of food! We are already looking forward to the our next visit!

Really lovely food. Excellent choice for vegans and vegetarian and it was a very large menu so would be hard for anyone to find something they couldn’t enjoy. I also requested something that wasn’t on the menu, and that was very politely accommodated to with no issues. I will be coming back for sure One small thing, would be nice to have a vegan yoghurt/sour cream/mayo in the future to make it an even better menu.

I was pretty excited even if some of my friends were dubious about the fusion. And vindication right at the starter! The Empinadas (both tikka and madras) are absolutely incredible. Wonderfully spiced, soft filling with an excellent crisp and crunchy outer. I could have eaten only those for the trip and will be coming back for more! The mains are equally well managed in terms of the fusion, although I would have liked if they offered some chopped fresh chillies so we could amend the spice level as needed (I would have been happy for more heat in the Beef Madras Roti Tacos, but the flavour was no problem! ) Highly recommend trying out, or just lots of empanadas to take away!

We had an absolutely amazing evening here on July 22nd. We booked as a special treat for our first wedding anniversary the week before and we both had very high expectations, having read and heard great things about Vivo Amigo. They surpassed our expectations on every level imaginable! The food was nothing short of breathtaking - the fusion of Indian and Mexican is one we would never have imagined but it worked like magic. The addition of Indian spices and flavours to Mexican staples like empanadas, elote, and fajitas beautifully complemented each other and elevated all aspects of every single dish we tried. The staff were friendly, helpful, attentive, happy to offer suggestions when I was spoiled for choice and were even brilliantly accommodating with my particular needs as a wheelchair user. My partner and I were so thoroughly impressed, we've already agreed that we need to work our way through the rest of their excellent and varied menu.
