Food was exceptional. I had fettuccini Gigi which was the best I've ever had. Appetiser calamari was excellent & my kid said the chicken parm was unbelievable. Well worth the detour.
We were a group of 8 & we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals & the excellent service!
We had Linguine Amalfitana, Chicken Parmigiana, Shrimp oreganata, Calf's Liver & more...every dish was delicious & generous!
The staff was friendly & professional!
You must try it if you haven't been there yet!
Thank you Vivaldi's for an excellent evening..
I went to Vivaldi last month for my birthday with my family, all the way from New Jersey. My expectations were high, & they were blown away. The food, service, everything was exceptional. Our waitress Jade was very friendly & attentive. The Gnocchi de la casa was spicy & smooth, Chicken de la casa was bursting with flavor, & the Chicken tetrazini was amazing.
The fried zucchini appetizer was crisp & delicious, & the sauce was great. The creme Brulee was the best I have ever had. The texture was fluffy & smooth, & the sweetness was just right.
Chef Steve even stopped by our table to say hi! If you like Vivaldi's YouTube videos & are curious, make the trip! You will have amazing food & exceptional service. This was a birthday I will never forget, & I hope to be back soon!
Ordered the chicken de LA casa & it was amazing. The tiramusu was to die for as well.
I had their chicken brochettes, & it was delicious . The manager, Liza, was amazing. We were a group of 10
Ok. So I reviewed the reviews of this restaurant & immediately got the feeling that this is a version of the famous sources boulevard Italian eateries called Del Friscos. I happen to generally enjoy Del Friscos so I thought I would try Vivaldis. So here is the review. Interior. Basic & lacking sound absorption so it's quite a noisy place - but so is Del Friscos for the same reason. Value. Portion is reasonable as is the freshness of ingredients. In terms of what you're going to eat as a dish on the whole this is a little different. We had a house salad, cheese pizza, & chicken Parmesan with tomato sauce & noodles as its accompaniment. The pizza sauce lacked zest & it tasted on the bland side. The dough was fine in flavour & texture but was a very floppy crust line a dominos or pizza pizza crust & you can only eat this by folding the slice it using a knife & fork. Salad was a good portion with nice ingredients though appears bland as there is no flair to it such as shaved Parmesan or colourful veggies except for a hot pepper. The chicken parm was the weakest dish. The chicken was about 25% while the breading was about 75% & was also cooked too much & tasted somewhat burnt. When you cut into the chicken all the breading fell off indicating poor technique in the breading if the chicken. The size of the thinned out chicken breast was actually not very large are you remove all the breading & as such your made to think you have a large portion with all the cheese covered breaded chicken, where in fact there very little chicken which at near $30 it should have a decent sized piece of chicken. An example of a proper sized chicken breast can easily be seen at Del Friscos where it's always juicy (here it was thin & consequently dry), moist, tender, lightly breaded where the breading remains on the chicken when you cut into it. Additionally there is not sufficient sauce which is one of the cheapest ingredients & should not be skimped on. As with the pasta it was really nothing special. A small portion of noodles & then a lack lustre tomato sauce. I like more sauce to my pasta as it's what it's all about, unless you have fresh pasta. & as such asked for extra sauce. There was no extra sauce & the noodles were lightly touched with the sauce. Now some people believe that this is the way to eat their noodles however I am not of the same kind. So if you enjoy little sauce with your pasta the. You are just fine. The slightly warmed buns we fine & had a lovely aroma, however, the type of bread they use makes it not as soft & a harder chewy crusty that's even a slight challenge to test it apart in two. Not that the issue is strength to split, the point is to have a light airy almost pollowy roll. Bring your own wine is nice. Service was adequate as well. The audience appears to be a majority of 55 years & older so perhaps this is like a Miami early bird crowd. Not a date night place.
I love this hidden Gem! The chicken parmigiana was the best I ever had. I changed my pasta for some tortellini rosée & we shared a pizza ( bacon onions for me ) everything was amazing. Good service, nice ambiance & you can bring your own wine/beer. Will be back!
