Prix cher pour le menu limité & pour ce qui est offert. Excellente pizza. Dessert moyen. Peu d'ambiance mis a part l'éclairage de couleur.

It took a long time to order & then it was faster to receive the food, overall just average preparations of food. Pizza was very good though.

Stopped in last weekend after a candlelit concert around the corner, & we were pleasantly surprised. We ordered a pizza & some wine, & everything was absolutely delicious. The staff was incredibly friendly & attentive, & the whole place had a very comfortable, welcoming, family-run feel.

Great atmosphere, great service, great food. We'll definitely be back. Good vibes all around.

C'est un restaurant portugais familial & authentique, & la pizza y est aussi délicieuse. J'y suis allée plusieurs fois &, de la morue à la pieuvre en passant par le riz aux fruits de mer, tout est miam ! Le décor est superbe & le personnel, des plus sympathiques : Lucas, Samuel, Steven, Gabriela & Alcindo rendent chaque visite vraiment agréable. En plus, c'est en plein coeur du quartier portugais ! J'adore. Merci d'exister restaurant Viva❤?

Sans conteste, la meilleure adresse de Montréal. Service digne d'un étoilé français, menu copieux, tout comme les plats. Cuisine raffinée jusque dans la confection des pizzas. La strachiatella & le tiramisu sont des incontournables. Un délice. Inoubliable.

Great atmosphere. Quick friendly service. Pizza was on point with a beautiful oven.

Pasta was cooked good. Wish it did had a smidgen of more salt. But that is just me.

Overall would definitely go back & definitely recommend

I don't understand why this place is so highly reviewed. Food took forever to come. Pasta was uncooked & dry. Arugula salad had old arugula. Pizza was very mediocre.

Les plats sont bons mais les portions ne sont pas généreuses pour le prix. Nous avons été servis à 21h30 alors qu'on était là depuis 19h30, pour des pizzas... Peu de service client, un serveur pour tout le restaurant. Cher pour le service reçu, je n'y retournerai pas.

Phenomenal pizza. Some of the best crust & sauce I've ever had. Professional staff & a popular spot, apparently for good reason!

Excellente adresse à Montréal. Des plats raffinés pour tous les goûts avec un service aux petits soins. Nous avions pris la paella fruits de mer, le jarret d'agneau & la pizza Caprino & tout était succulent ! Je recommande fortement.
