### 3/5 — App is not intuitive.

*2026-07-05, version 25.13.2025093001*

I find your app very difficult to navigate. After lots of effort I hit my order in but then didn’t get any sauce with my order. Very frustrating.

### 3/5 — Needs more options

*2026-04-30, version 25.13.2025093001*

There needs to be an option added into the app when ordering to be able to have your chicken well done. This is an option over the phone but on in app

### 3/5 — The  Chicken Soup

*2025-06-15, version 25.5.2025042902*

Everything is good except that the Huntersville, NC location has reduced the amount of chicken in the soup. It feels like they are trying to cut costs. I have no issue but then Viva Chicken needs to reduce their prices. This is one critical feedback I would like to provide.

### 1/5 — Missing mobile app order

*2025-04-03, version 24.12.2024091101*

Today my husband went to pickup our mobile app non order.  Ordered at 5:48pm said ready for pickup at 6:03. He goes in to get and doesn’t see it so goes sit in curbside to wait for it after text saying almost ready. Called store and sat on hold. Finally someone answers and says bring it right out. No one comes out after almost 30 mins of waiting. Go back in to ask about order. No one even was checking on it but apparently someone else swiped it and now it has to be remade!!!! Terrible service and maybe you shouldn’t leave app orders at the door to grab!!

### 1/5 — Food never arrived

*2025-02-04, version 24.12.2024091101*

Store never received the order

### 1/5 — January 15, 2025 order

*2025-01-15, version 24.12.2024091101*

Chicken was too salty to eat!! This has never been the case. Was close to inedible so salty!

### 1/5 — Rewards disappear

*2024-10-24, version 24.12.2024091101*

I clicked redeem then ordered item put in cart per instructions. When clicked apply says no reward

### 1/5 — Worst food app

*2024-10-17, version 24.12.2024091101*

If the first wasn’t bad enough. This app makes up for it. So bad. Start over. This great company is loosing so much from people that just can’t use the app and end up going elsewhere. F-

### 4/5 — I LOVE VIVA!!!

*2024-09-21, version 24.12.2024091101*

I would literally eat here everyday if I could afford it. (I eat here probably 3x a week 😭) The only reason I am giving a 4 star is because if you order in person and the person forgets to scan your rewards- there’s no way to get those points. I just spent like $50+ for our family night dinner and the girl forgot to add my rewards and now I can’t get those points 😭😭😭😭

### 4/5 — Great food but the  app lacks…

*2024-09-17, version 24.12.2024091101*

Food and service are great. The app Lacks a notes section (ie a way to make notes for the kitchen staff).

### 2/5 — Sauces!

*2024-08-30, version 24.2.2024022201*

I got a soup and a salad yesterday. They ask on the app which two free sauces you want. Viva didn’t put them in the bag, by the time I got home it was too late to drive all the way back. Please have staff check the bag for sauces before giving to customers! This happens all the time at the Greensboro location.

### 1/5 — Wrong Order

*2026-03-21, version 25.13.2025093001*

Asked for french fries and got cilantro rice. Not the first time! Not happy finding out it about it as I reach the house. Curbside at Mills location failed me once again 😞

### 1/5 — Online data entry needs works!!!!! We tried 15 times to order‼️‼️GOING TO USE CITY BBQ

*2026-02-18, version 25.13.2025093001*

App keeps locking up!! Tried 15 times today

### 1/5 — It’s way faster just to walk in

*2025-12-14, version 25.13.2025093001*

Ordered the food on the app, I live 20 mins away from the nearest location. I drove over there, sat down for 10 mins and got a text message saying it’s almost done. After 5 mins I walked up to the counter and they said it’s right here and handed it to me. I thought it would be on the To go rack near the door but I guess they just wait for you to ask for it. Just walk in and order it’s way faster for some unexplainable reason.

### 1/5 — The points are awful

*2025-10-14, version 25.13.2025093001*

There’s is no way to apply your points to your order. I tried and lost 2000 points!

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2025-09-23, version 25.12.2025090401*

They used to have an app that worked. They then decided to overhaul the whole thing and make it borderline useless. Anti-customer every step of the way.

### 1/5 — Love Viva, Hate the App

*2025-09-16, version 25.12.2025090401*

The app is very clunky and not well done. Hard to navigate, impossible to redeem rewards.

### 1/5 — Worst food app

*2025-08-15, version 25.10.2025080504*

Worst app i ever had to work through! Do you even test your own app!? Try adding peruvian fried rice as side 1 and then add corn salad. Ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Incomplete order

*2025-07-08, version 25.6.2025060303*

Today my order was incomplete and was charged the same amount.  Was not notified of missing item.

### 1/5 — Can’t even login

*2025-05-25, version 25.5.2025042902*

Since your phone number is tied to the email if you forget the email you used you are out of luck

### 1/5 — Love the food but terrible App

*2025-04-16, version 24.12.2024091101*

I order around once a month and every time there is some kind of error code that pops up. I’ve given up using the app and just place my order at the store.

### 5/5 — Food + App = easy & delicious

*2026-04-18, version 25.13.2025093001*

My first time using app and it was so so easy! Food amazing every time! Tacu bowl + chicken is lunch and dinner!

### 5/5 — Great food, bad app

*2026-01-17, version 25.13.2025093001*

Please fix your app. I forgot my password and was never sent a reset email despite multiple requests.

### 5/5 — Fabulous food!

*2025-10-14, version 25.13.2025093001*

I love Viva Chicken. I can’t cook it as well at home, and I’m a good cook. I have never had trouble with the app in all the years I’ve been coming here. When I tap Order, the first thing that pops up is the list of locations. 
The dining room tends to be chilly so I know to wear a sweater. I’ve learned the names of the staff and every one of them has been friendly and helpful. It’s my favorite place.

### 5/5 — Delicious & healthy

*2025-08-29, version 25.10.2025080504*

My kids and I live eating at viva and ordering through the app makes a meal from viva fast and convenient! 

The soup is so good I’ll even eat it during the summer!

### 5/5 — Best chicken EVER

*2025-08-22*

This is hands down the best chicken I’ve ever had in my entire life! I love all the sauces, especially the huacatay green sauce. I make a point of coming here at least once a week. It’s worth the 30 minute drive. Yes. That good.

### 5/5 — The App

*2025-08-10, version 25.10.2025080504*

We always drop by Viva Chicken when we visit Utah.  We love the Food. The app makes its so much easier  and faster to order and got freebies too 😀

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-08-07, version 25.6.2025060303*

Great food great service but the app is very complicated and every time I order for some reason I don’t get what I thought I was getting and it’s my fault but the app is too complicated and it would be great if it was upgraded in simplified, especially for older folk. I hope you don’t mind my input, but I think it will help your business.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2025-02-28, version 24.12.2024091101*

This app is fantastic and absolutely so easy to use and understand and viva chicken is so good!

### 5/5 — BEST!

*2025-01-27, version 24.12.2024091101*

Viva chicken is consistently the tastiest, most tender chicken I’ve ever had! I love their sides, especially the green beans. If I could, I’d give 6 stars!

### 5/5 — Viva Peruvian Chicken NEVER Disappoints!

*2024-06-16, version 24.2.2024022201*

My husband and I are SoOoOoOo happy to have Viva Peruvian Chicken Restaurant in our neighborhood on Woodruff Road!  We haven't had fried chicken in two years!  ALL of the items on their menu are FRESH and cooked to perfection!  Being introduced to a new place & food offering makes us want to visit Peru!  The Chicken is ALWAYS good! I don't know their process but it's the HEALTIEST, most delicious restaurant food we've ever had!  And my husband and I are in our 80s!!!!!!  We LOVE it!
