Reviews of Viva panettone are mixed, with some customers calling the maple panettone absolutely delicious and praising moelleux textures and flavors like lemon, pistachio, chocolate, and strawberry. Many praise the shop atmosphere, the variety of flavors, and the sense that the product can be very moist and enjoyable when well made. On the other hand, frequent complaints focus on dryness, especially with the grand format chocolate, the new stollen, and the panettone des rois, with some saying the product is extremely dry and not worth the price. A number of reviewers feel the French version is less moist than traditional Italian panettone, though others welcome a local maple infusion as a pleasant twist. Customer service is described as inconsistent, with reports of slow responses to feedback and coupons issued for errors that do not fully cover the purchase. Despite praise for certain flavors and the overall quality, recurring dryness and uneven quality lead to a cautious overall impression and some patrons preferring other brands or iterations.View restaurant profile
