About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for fine wines
vivo is where Italian comes alive. We relish the enthusiasm and joy with which the traditional Italian meal is prepared and delivered, and seek to recreate that experience for every guest. Our open kitchen showcases our chefs preparing fresh and local ingredients.

When you join us for dinner, expect it to be a relaxing evening lasting a couple hours over several piatti (courses). Your table comes alive when we present a variety of large offerings on platters or bowls within easy reach of all.

A classic Italian pranzo (dinner) usually beings with a variety of antipasti (hot and cold appetizers), followed by one or two primi (usually a hot pasta, risotto, gnocchi or zuppa). Next your table will share a secondi (entrees) served on a platter combined with your choice of contorni (vegetable side dishes). Italians often complete their meal with un dolce, un caffe, or un digestivo (dessert, espresso, liqueur or grappa).
we only use fresh in house made pastas and sauces.

    All I can say is wow! We went for our 10 year anniversary, our server was incredibly kind and welcoming. When we arrived we had some white roses at our table, our food was absolutely incredible and we loved watching the chefs cook. We’ll definitely be back, thank you so much for taking such good care of us on our special day🥰🩷

    Everything was wonderful. Food was so good. We didn’t feel rushed and enjoyed all the courses. The favourites were the caprese salad and fresh rigatoni.

    Family style restaurant, great service however food is not as good as their service. Plates are too rich, too much condiment where even a simple healthy dish becomes unhealthy due to the extra fired ingredients and sauces added on the food. We ordered grilled asparagus and they were served with 2 different sauces and bacon, mashed potatoes came with fried onion rings on top…branzino fish full of butter.
