Viva La Vida

11/22/2023

There are not enough words to thank you all for joining us on our last day. We had a great turnout and so glad we were able to say our goodbyes. Most of you were no longer just customers, you turned into our wonderful friends. We're humbled to have been able to serve you these past two years.
As you all know we had to close our restaurant for due to our mom's health. Everyone that visited our restaurant and took a peak into the kitchen knows that she was ALWAYS there. Making everything from her handmade tortillas to her famous birria tacos.
A couple months ago mom started feeling off but we were unable to get a definitive diagnosis. That was until a couple of weeks ago when we finally got an answer.
Mom was unfortunately diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic cancer. This was a shock to us all because it came out of nowhere. Her health has declined so quickly and now she needs help full time with daily tasks. As her primary caregiver I was left with no other option but to close the restaurant, leading to a great financial strain that we did not foresee happening. We now humbly ask if any one would like to support our mom's journey through these tough times. We'll add the link in our bio and story. Once again thank you for being an amazing part of this journey with us y que Viva La Vida 🌮🇲🇽

Hi everyone, we are fundraising on behalf of our mom Glafira. The past few weeks have been… Yael Cano needs your support for Our mom's stage 4 cancer journey

🚨🚨🚨
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closing of Viva La Vida. We apologize for keeping you in the dark but this decision was beyond our control.

These past few weeks have been a whirlwind of emotions as we deal with the health emergency of our mom following an unexpected diagnosis, which we will share as soon as she’s ready. We are so grateful for to every single person that has stepped through the door and gotten to experience our mom's cooking. Every plate she made was filled with so much love. We loved knowing you felt at home when dining with us. Without her we are unable to continue operations.

Our possible last day open will be today Saturday November 10th with a limited takeout menu. Please join us or stop by to say goodbye.

Don’t worry, this isn’t the end for Viva La Vida. We have plans in seeing you again in the future. Be on the lookout for our name, you’ll see it again someday.

Thank you again for everything! It was a pleasure getting to know you. We will miss every single one of you.

-Viva La Vida Family ❤️
