   1st time and the food was exceptional. Timely & piping hot. Portion size was very generous. Terrific Negroni. Server was very attentive and ensured we were satisfied with our selections. The ONLY thing I was a little surprised at was despite articulating in the reservation comments re: special occasion, I indicated it was a birthday lunch. Usually, a restaurant will, at minimum throw a candle in a dessert to acknowledge - I was not expecting a freebie and in fact we shared a tiramisu. Otherwise, very good experience and I will be recommending it to friends/family.

   They must have changed Chef because the dishes this time were substandard. Calamari was so tough; pizza was soggy; rigatoni was very oily.

   Came into the restaurant for the first time after the menu refresh. Everything was 10/10. Our group was impressed with the ambiance and front of house team. Everyone was friendly and explained the menu thoroughly - checked on us often enough but not too overwhelming. The food was all extremely tasty - favourites from the apps were the croquettes, radicchio salad and prosciutto & melone. Calamari was light and tasted great with the green/white/red sauces. Favourite pastas were the papardelle and rigatoni. Tasted fab. And to top it off, the cheesecake was amazing - light, fruit forward and a great way to end the meal. Thank you so much!

   I heard about the new menu at Vivo from Instagram and needed to check it out. It did not disappoint! The service was warm and welcoming and the dishes were all incredible. Hats off to chef Nick! The menu was curated with dishes and flavours that made me feel like I was back at my Nonna’s for Sunday dinner.

   Came in from out of town to try the new menu. Food was well prepared, visually appealing and very tasty. We started with the insalata di radicchio, calamari fritti and prosciutto croquettes. Our second was the Marguerite pizza followed by the spagettoni with zucchini and rigatoni. The service was excellent and the background music set a wonderful ambiance.

   Last night, my husband and I were eager to try the new menu at Vivo, and it did not disappoint! From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The food was bursting with flavor and creativity, showcasing a thoughtful balance of ingredients that elevated each dish. Our top picks were the Prosciutto Croquettes—crispy on the outside, perfectly savory on the inside—the Casarecce pasta, which was an absolute delight with its fresh, rich flavors, and the Gamberi, which was a stand-out for its perfectly cooked shrimp and bold, aromatic seasoning. The service was equally impressive. Ninny treated us like family, offering warm hospitality and checking in on us throughout the evening to make sure we were enjoying our meal. It’s clear that Vivo is committed to providing an unforgettable dining experience. We’ll definitely be back to try more of the elevated dishes on the menu. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to enjoy incredible food and top-notch service!

    I dined at Vivo with my family. The moment we walked in we were greeted with a warm welcome. The ambiance was warm, friendly and very pleasant. Our waiter Manuel was very attentive and had great suggestions for food and wine. We tried many different plates from their new menu and each one was absolutely delicious. The presentations and the flavours were just perfect. My favourite dishes were the insalata di radicchio, prosciutto croquettes, the rigatoni mezze and the patata pizza. My family and I will definitely be back.
