One of the highlights of Viva Chicken is their rotisserie chicken, marinated for 24 hours in a special Peruvian spice blend handed down from Chef Bruno's family. The all-natural, hormone-free chicken is then roasted over live charcoal, infusing every bite with succulent flavor. It’s achingly good, making the Whole Chicken with 3 Family Sides—available for just $29.99—a must-try for gatherings.

If you’re feeling adventurous, indulge in the Tacu Tray, allowing you to build your own Tacu Bowl with pulled rotisserie chicken and other fresh ingredients. The combination of flavors and textures create a culinary symphony in every bite.

And don’t forget to save room for dessert! The Mini Churros and Tres Leches—a white sponge cake drenched in three milks—are perfect sweet endings to your meal. You can even enjoy peace of mind knowing that every churro purchase supports St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

The drink selection doesn’t disappoint either. Quench your thirst with a refreshing Herbal Limeade or try the fruity Chicha Morada made from Peruvian purple corn and spices. Each juice is crafted fresh daily, ensuring maximum flavor.
