Absolutely amazing dinner experience. Food was outstanding. We shared 2 starters. Grilled octopus on a bed of chickpea purée which was creamy. Tye octopus was grilled perfect just as in Portugal. Our second starter was Bacalhau a Braz was totally delicious & highly recommended. Our main was seafood rice served in its cooking vessel. Seafood was scallops shrimp & clams & cuttlefish. Totally delicious & a redo. Viva is becoming an amazing experience both for the food & the atmosphere & service.
My mom organized my bridal shower at Viva on a Sunday last April , & I've been meaning to write this review because the service & food was just exceptional. The staff was kind , quick & very accommodating. The food left all our guests impressed 🙌🙌 I highly recommend viva for any night out or big events

Not sure if the reviews are deceiving? Restaurant was very empty during dinner hours... Paid around 20$ for the calamari & it only had 4 pieces... The paella chicken was pretty dry (can see in pictures), looks like something that can be made from home? The burrata pizza was good but salty, overall would not come back, but the service was good!
What an amazing restaurant this was! Loved the decor & the beautiful bar, the ambiance, the hospitality of the staff...& the food! We really enjoyed our dishes - they were flavorful & cooked to perfection. Also felt like I was back to Portugal again! Highly recommend!
Everything is fresh & delicious , the flavour brings you to Italy & Portugal , amazing , must try if you are in plateau ,, delicious 💯 recommend it , it's clean fresh & delicious what else you want ,,, 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽Barva
I was very surprised with the quality of the food, until I found out that Chef Marino Tavares is the head chef & everything made sense, his food is always excellent Thank you!!!
Ça fait déjà plusieurs fois que je viens & je ne suis jamais déçu ! Le personnel est très sympathique & professionnel. Les pizzas sont très bonnes. Leur soupe du jour est aussi bien travaillée est réconfortante en hiver. Le sandwich à la mortadelle est délicieux, le pain est cuit dans le four a pizza donc c'est super frais ! Le menu du midi est très bien avec beaucoup de choix italiens & portugais & les prix sont très très raisonnables quand on compare avec les restaurants du coin ! Allez-y !

So good!! The pizza & cocktails were where this place really stood out. We also got the octopus & piri piri chicken & they were very good. Definitely coming back to try another pizza & one of their pasta dishes
It's a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming & charming. Amazing wines, food & service. Staff are extremely knowledgeable & make great recommendations.
Super expérience dans ce nouveau resto que j'ai récemment découvert. Merci au propriétaire Steven & au personnel pour le service amical! C'était un vrai plaisir à goûter les pâtes fraîches faites maison & le jarret d'agneau! De retour bientôt sûrement!
Un merveilleux mixte de cuisine italienne & portugaise. La pizza est magique, le poulet portugais & les croquettes de morue étaient excellents... & la lasagne, selon ma fille "est gagnante".
