Our new go to for family events. Excellent food, super fresh & delicious! The staff looks happy & its an open kitchen which is fun to watch. Bonus it's BYOB.
I found Steve's YouTube channel months ago & always wanted to go & try the food. It exceeded expectations! The restaurant was busy but the food came out fast & fresh & was reasonably priced for its quality.
The tortellini rosè with vegetables was phenomenal. It had amazing flavors with just the right amount of spice. The grilled octopus was also delish.
Steve came over & said hi to my girlfriend & I. He's super nice & down to earth.
I really can't recommend this place enough. I will definitely be back next time I'm in Montreal!
My husband has followed Vivaldi for so long & we were so excited to try it. We both loved this place! The linguine tetrazzini was amazing & same with the crème brûlée. We will definitely be back (also remember to bring your wine & don't forget like we did haha!)
Pour une première fois wow super de bon service & la cuisine vraiment excellente rien à dire de négatif super boulot les serveuse courtoise aussi allez y voué ne saurez pas déçu.
I have been to Vivaldi so many times already & it never disappoints. I always forget to review this amazing restaurant but today I decided to remedy to this oversight. The waiters are pleasant, the service is good & prompt & the food is always consistent. Last time I had a very well priced Table d'Hôte consisting of an appetizer of Marinara mussels, Sautéed shrimps served with spaghettini & a Grand-Marnier cheese cake for dessert. Everything was delicious & abundant & there was enough for a generous'doggy bag'. In my past visits I have had their combo appetizer of fried zucchini & fried calamari, their Sambucca shrimps, another time their Gorgonzola gnocchi & also the Linguine Amalfitana. Always scrumptious!! & to top it of? It's a BYOB restaurant. Who can ask for more?
Wish this restaurant was in my town!
I organized a dinner party for my sister's 80th birthday on August 23rd. There were 20 pp including 2 kids & I couldn't be happier with the results.
Food & service 5*
Max our server went above & beyond!
I went there last Saturday with my partner. It was our anniversary & we mentioned it on the reservation. We have been there on 2 previous locations & were satisfied overall. This time it was not. I ordered the veal scallopini & it was not what i enjoyed two months earlier. I called the waiter & he told me they had changed the recipe. I asked to order something else & I was told no. I realized after that the veal was actually pork. The meat was white not brown, cooked veal is not white. The horrid new sauce has a topping of chopped ham & the plate smelt like smoked meat. The new pasta sauce was terrible. I ate maybe 25% of the plate. I also noticed you dont get bread unless you request it, They didn't offer it either.
When it came to pay the bill they did not change to the billing method to calculate the tip as was required by law since May 2025 . The credit card terminal gave you a subtotal including taxes before tip. It is supposed to be subtotal before tax.
Did they mention anything about our anniversary. No
I have watching this place on YouTube & when my wife had a business trip to Montreal I joined her my one request was to go to Vivaldi & it was best dinning experience of our trip from Washington DC. Do not miss dessert Tiramasue was great. Get reservations this place is hopping.

My daughter & I were there on August 16 it was our first time in Quebec & in Montreal we were staying downtown at Saint Martin & got an Uber to come out for dinner. It was super busy, but it was still good to see Steve & Spiro working as we have only watched them on social media & absolutely love them! My daughter said to tell the chefs it was the best fettuccine Alfredo she's ever had in her life & I agree 100%.
Vivaldi is part of a lifetime memory with our family. Thank you so much.!!!!
Kind regards, Lucas & Sophia Kiffiak

Not worth the hype to be honest. The food is average & overpriced for the quality. It's all very'meh'. They are better Italian restaurants. I believe the people who loved their experience got more expensive dishes (we took the more cheaper ones) but I think an amazing five star restaurant should at least be able to make a tasty simple spaghettini bolognese.
