Step inside Viva Jalisco Restaurant and you’re greeted by the aroma of sizzling steak, cilantro-bright salsa, and just-pressed corn tortillas 🌮🔥. Tucked into Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, this family-run spot has become a hub for anyone craving authentic Mexican food in Norcross. Open every day from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m., the kitchen turns out everything from breakfast chilaquiles to late-night birria tacos, all at prices that keep regulars coming back. Handmade tortillas land on the flattop minutes before they reach your plate, and the scarlet house salsa—equal parts roasted chile and tomato—adds the perfect kick. With bilingual staff, Jarritos in every color, and banda music humming softly in the background, the vibe is equal parts Jalisco mercado and laid-back Georgia neighborhood hangout.
