¡VIVA! Mexican Restaurant at Resorts World Happy Hour. The Strip

VIVA sits inside Resorts World on the north Strip at 3000 S Las Vegas Blvd, an easy stop if you are already on property and craving Mexican without heading out into the heat. Happy hour runs daily from 3 to 5pm, a tidy two-hour window every day of the week, so there is no checking the calendar to see if you have timed it right.

The drink pricing is flat and easy: $6 beer, $6 house wine, and a $12 house margarita. The margaritas come in several flavors and are mixed with real ingredients rather than a sugary pour, generous in size and honest in strength. The $6 beer covers Mexican imports like Corona and Modelo, and the house wine is simple but drinkable.

The room is bright and colorful with tile work and an open kitchen, lively without tipping into full party mode. The guacamole made tableside and the street tacos are worth ordering off the regular menu if you are eating, since the published deal is drink-focused.

This fits hotel guests after margaritas without leaving the building, groups sharing plates, and anyone who likes the simplicity of a daily happy hour they can hit on any afternoon. Arrive near the 3pm open and you will usually grab a bar seat or table before the late-afternoon crowd drifts in.
