We are addicted to Viva Chicken, and think that this branch plus the one in Ballentyne are the best!
by Kathy S
This place is so good. Their chicken is done right. I drizzle it with the green and yellow sauce. Their plantains is also a good choice for a side. They also have delicious fried rice.

Pollo a la brasa. Yum

The avocado stuffed with quinoa is my favorite!
by Gabriela J
Sooo tasty! Best chicken I tried here in Charlotte! The wrap is also good and I love the dressings
by Isabel H
Fun quick dine. Quinoa-stuffed avocado=refreshing. Yummy fresh juices. Canary beans have zing. Chx dark meat=moist; white = too dry. Thumbs up for Solterito side. Reasonable prices. Friendly staff!

Buy full chicken if 2 or 3 ordering. It comes with 3 portions of 3 sides too. My favorite is Quinoa salad and sweet potato fries!! Love the food

Best Rotisserie Chicken and The Stuff avocado is amazing
by Bruno K
Yucca fries, house salad, and 1/4 dark meat FTW! the maracuya juice is quite lovely. Stay away from herbed lemonade if you're not into "eclectic" tastes. It's heavy on the grass, mint,and basil.
by Jill H.
This place is amazing. I had the 1/2 chicken and it was fall off the bone tender. The spices and taste were incredible. They had a variety of sauces. I enjoyed the hot sauce with the chicken.
by Joe M.
