Viva Chicken - Half 1/2 Chicken with 2 Sides (canary beans & fried rice with an additional prefer of plantains) - Peruvian Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Great food & service. You order at the register & then they bring the food to you. The speed of fast food but the quality & service of a nice sit down restaurant. Family friendly with upbeat music and booster seats. The employees at this eatery are incredibly attentive and friendly, walking around the dining area with regularity to keep tables clean & check in each customer if you need anything. Do yourself a favor and get the Huactay Sauce. And now the sauces are self serve. One of our favorites is the Tacu Bowl, a side of Yuka fries & the Herbal Limeaid. So good! read more

I have wanted to stop in for lunch at this spot for a while and on an early work release snow day on a Friday lunch, my desires all came true for rotisserie chicken. I mean, it is rotisserie chicken and that is a good thing! This was a tender, juicy chicken wing and thigh (1/4 chicken, dark). I really could not tell a discernible difference between this chicken and one of the standards from, say, Publix or Costco. But it was good. The sauces are a different story. They are why the Peruvian chicken really crosses the road. This is the differentiator. The sauces are, Aji Amarillo Sauce (Mild / Yellow), Huacatay Sauce (Medium / Green), Roasted Rocoto Sauce (Hot / Red), and Huancaina Sauce (Creamy Queso Fresco Sauce). I did not try them all, but I did roll with the Rocoto sauce. It was spicy, maybe too much for the average "mild" sauce person, but for me, it was a nice compliment to the chicken and sides that I ordered. And I received two of the small plastic "ramekin" type sauce containers for "to go." Which is good, because my order was "to go." Service was quick and polite. Restaurant is smaller, but very clean. Kitchen is open enough so that you can see the process in the works. My sides were cilantro rice and Peruvian corn salad. Both very healthy and both very bland. Which is another big plus for the sauce. I would also add that the location is at the corner of Garlington Road and Woodruff Road and not the easiest place to get into and out of unless you are going in a certain direction. Which I was. A minor win there. All told, this is a good option if you can get in and out with traffic, the chicken is good, the star of the show is definitely the sauce and I would say that overall their menu has very healthy options. My quarter chicken listed for $10.39 with two sides. With my Viva Chicken desires satisfied, I would recommend this restaurant if convenient to your travels, but honestly would not make it a destination. read more

spot. Go get a 1/4 or 1/2 bird and enjoy. Make sure you get the Yuka fries too and some plantains. Always hits the spot. Service is great too. They always play house music so that's a win in my book for ambiance read more

After a very long night at the hospital, stopping at Viva Chicken was such a comforting experience. The staff treated us with so much kindness and genuine care, which honestly meant the world after the night we had. On top of that, the food came out hot, fresh, and bursting with flavor. It had been awhile since we had been in, and the incredible customer service and delicious meal left such a strong impression. We'll definitely be back soon! read more

Great food! I love the chicken with the yellow sauce and plantains. No complaints about the restaurant itself. Nice staff. Although I will say that the intersection is very busy & noisy. One time I went here I tried to eat outdoors on the patio because the weather was nice, but some of the cars were so loud that it was very obnoxious and I had to go back inside. read more

Absolutely delicious! So glad we stopped here on our way through Charlotte. I'll be thinking about the Tacu bowl I ordered for a long time! I wish you'd expand into some other states. Would love to come back. read more

Viva Chickens's delicious lunches pair well with the casual and comfy atmosphere. Their food is fresh and fulfilling, making it the perfect spot when you want something quick but satisfying. The smell of their steak itself already makes your mouth water--- their bowls are perfectly tossed together with a perfect choice for add-ins. Their service is exceptional as well, and they really helped us with the menu process at our first time there. Would definitely recomend to anyone looking to expand their pallette and try new, mouth watering dishes. read more

This place is a decent spot for a fairly cheap meal. My food came out very quickly and was pretty good. I got the tacu bowl with queso. Queso tasted homemade and fresh. It had a smokey flavor to it as well. It's not a bad place but I wouldn't go out of my way to return. read more

Great service, healthy and tasty. Probably great for take out, but plenty of seating.

Often finding myself gravitate to this version of grilled chicken and sides. The chicken is moist, juicy, flavorful. The beans is full of flavor too. French fries is crunchy and packs flavor. Enjoyed the rice and plantain too. I would had enjoyed the Yukon fries if not for the tiny fibrous bits. Everytime we visit we end up getting the same meal. It's hard to move on from a favorite. All in all I'd stil recommend this spot. read more

I love coming here for takeout when I don't feel like cooking, but still want to eat relatively healthy. Their roasted chicken is so tender and not dry at all. All of their sauces are so incredibly tasty. Rice is always cooked to perfection and their beans are so tender and not overcooked in the slightest... We always go in and order for takeout and it has never taken longer than 15 minutes. read more

Viva Chicken - Tacu Bowl - Peruvian Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

I think this is my new favorite addiction. Top things I look for in the food industry: 1. Cleanliness 2. Professional staff 3. Good atmosphere 4. And of course, great tasting, fresh quality food. The different spices and freshness of the chicken, French fries, the cilantro rice and yucca (just few of the dishes I tried) exceeded my expectations and makes me want to go back for more. Growing up I thought El Pollo Loco was good, but this tops that. They marinade the chicken for 24 hours and the chicken they use is hormone free. It was perfectly seared and just bursted with flavor. Highly recommend!!! read more

Just want to say the food at Viva Chicken was outstanding. The service was excellent. Was blown away at how much food we received. Had the whole chicken with 3 sides. Chicken was tender and moist. The sides were sweet potato fries, Peruvian corn salad and Peruvian fried rice. Plenty of food for 4 people. Will definitely be telling my friends and definitely going back. Wish they would open one in Easley. Tired of burger and Mexican restaurants. read more

Love this place. I love the bowl. Healthy option. It's close by work and easy to get in and out quickly.

I've been wanting to check this place out for awhile as I like the Peruvian style chicken. Decided to order the half chicken with green beans and plantains. Everything came out hot and fresh. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. The green beans were really good cooked perfectly and the flavoring used complimented the green beans well. Plantains we're good as well. I be would definitely return. read more

Viva Chicken - Half Chicken - Peruvian Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

How I wish there was a Viva Chicken near me! My sister and I discovered Viva Chicken on Yelp while visiting and wanted a quicker meal as we were pressed for time but didn't want something super unhealthy. You walk up to the counter and order, it's a pretty casual vibe. The people working had genuine smiles and were friendly. I opted for the naked Peruvian wrap with a side of plantains while my sister got the avocado quinoa salad with a side of yuka. Both were delicious, and we asked for sides of their sauces to come with. I'm not sure what the names of the sauces were called but there was a green one that was delicious, and a spicy one that we equally loved too. We could have split one entree as neither one of us made a dent in the other half of our meals. Pricing is fair for the amount of food they give you. They also have a selection of juices--I got the herbal limeade. You could definitely taste the herbal factor which I liked. It is quite sugary so I cut it with water. They have an outside patio to sit at if it's a nice day which it was. I would definitely come back to Viva Chicken if Im in the area again. read more

Viva Chicken - Peruvian Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Let me say that I don't like spicy food but their Amarillo sauce (mild/yellow) has a bite to it but it's good! The herbal limeade is Amazing! Their sides are so good. I usually get the green beans and yuca or plantains. Also, I bought some of the Amarillo sauce in a bottle and it's a squeeze bottle and I am I. Love! The best concept EVER! Who ever thought of that, give them a bonus. Other companies who sell their sauce need to jump on that idea. I've always has nice employees always! I order online as it's easier for me. When I'm in Greenville (woodruff rd) I try to get the chicken. I wish I could make their sauce and the herbs for their chicken. But thank you for bringing another countries food to this area. I'd like to see one in Spartanburg if possible so it's closer to where I live. read more

Walked in not sure if I would like the food and after eating I have a totally different attitude!! This place is AMAZING!!!! The staff has the correct attitude of suggestions. The 1/4 chicken was amazing and the mild sauce was an amazing flavorful touch!!! The green beans were something I never expected either. Let me put it this way. My taste buds experience was orgasmic!! ( Oops can I say that) There is a Purple Drink that is OUT OF THIS WORLD!! It's called Chicha Morada and it tastes like Christmas!!! So if you want to explore so your taste buds can love you I HIGHLY recommend Viva Chicken!!! Ask for Lane!!! read more

Viva Chicken - First Timers! Super friendly staff - Peruvian Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

My outing started out at the Haywood Mall for some back to school shopping with some family members. We decided to do lunch after our shopping. Our first choice was an old standby Copper River, we actually pulled in the parking lot, then decided to give Viva Chicken a try. Viva Chicken is a Peruvian Restaurant, I of course looked it up and Yelp, told my family that the rating was good. Viva Chicken wasn't very crowded. We were undecided about what we wanted to eat, my sister ordered the half chicken, it comes with two sides. For her two sides she got fries and fresh fruit. The sandwiches and wraps come with one side. Both of my nieces got the Inca Wrap with pulled rotisserie chicken with one side. For their sides they got fries and green beans. I placed my order last. I got The Great, it's a chicken sandwich with your choice of pulled dark or white meat chicken(I got white meat, $1.85 charge for this choice), ciabatta bread or a sun dried tomato wrap.The young man at the check out suggested that I try it on ciabatta bread. It comes with pulled rotisserie chicken, lettuce, tomato, red onions and a Rocoto mayo, with your choice of a side sauce. The side sauce I got was a lightly mustard based sauce, with a little heat to it. The pulled chicken was not actual pulled chicken, more like boiled chicken chunks. The chicken had no seasoning to it, and it had very little of the mayo on it. The sandwich was only ok for me, adding the sauce and some salt and pepper helped make it taste better. I only ate half of the sandwich. The green beans were sautéed with red bell peppers, and with what tasted like garlic and some lemon juice. I didn't want the green beans cooked to death, but I didn't want to eat crunchy green beans. I would have enjoyed the old standby Copper River a lot more than I did Viva Chicken. Btw my family members are in agreement with my rating. read more

Let me just start with this, I don't know how I feel about this place. It's a new concept chicken place (clearly) Peruvian in style. It's rotisserie chicken so you choose from a quarter, half, or whole chicken which come with sides. This place hasn't been opened long and when we stopped by there were 2 people running the register and a manager behind them. We were clearly new and didn't know what to order. Nothing was suggested. The girl taking our order wasn't rude but she wasn't friendly. The other girl was super friendly and the manager didn't really make eye contact. We ordered after trying to figure out what to get and we asked about the sauces, how that worked. The girl snapped back "I've already added both". It was just an odd encounter. Now the food, the fries were amazing. Rice was just ok. The chicken is cooked well and I really enjoyed the 2 dipping sauces they offered. I'm not sure we will be back but mainly because they did a terrible job explaining the concept to new customers or even offering suggestions. Overall our experience just wasn't the best. read more

Great food! I even went back after seeing dead roach in the bathroom! Thats just greenville for you!
