We started watching Vivaldi's (Steve & Spiros) online reels/videos a few months ago & decided it was a place we must try one day. We drove all the way from Ottawa to Montreal & the place did not disappoint. The food & the service was great. From the moment we walked in & were greeted by Dave until we left & said goodbye to Steve in the parking lot. Even though they do not have kids meals the kids found plenty to eat & share. We will definitely return & anyone thinking about going, stop thinking immediately & just GO!!!
Update:
Drove back two more times since our first visit & each time we have 0 complaints about. Fabulous food, great service (even on a busy Saturday night). We will definitely be back. Worth a drive from Ottawa for sure. Keep up the great work everyone at Vivaldi.
Amazing experience. Service was excellent, Steve came over to say hi as well which was nice. Food was unreal, I had the mussels & lamb chops. One of the best meals I've ever had. I'll hopefully be back again next time I'm in town!
Thanks for arranging the gift card (from a distance) & making my boy's birthday dinner special. Cheers y'all are pure class & pros. Keep up the great work Dave!! I owe you big time.
Vivaldi is an excellent restaurant that is generous with big portions of food for the price. They give bread with the meal whereas other Italian restaurants will charge or not offer free bread. Customer service, food tastiness, & price are all outstanding!
Our first experience was a little disappointing, particularly with the portion sizes, but we decided to give it another chance tonight.
We ordered the fettuccine Alfredo for our son & specifically asked that no greenery be added, which they did accommodate. Unfortunately, the portion was very small again. The sauce which there wasn't very much of was all at the bottom & had quite a bit of freshly cracked pepper once mixed. Our son wouldn't eat it, & honestly, I didn't really enjoy it either.
We really wanted to like this restaurant & were happy to give it a second chance, but unfortunately, both experiences left us disappointed. I hope they take the feedback into consideration because we would have loved to become regular customers now that we're back in the area.
Went to Vivaldi to celebrate my son's birthday, it did not disappoint! From start to finish, everything was cooked to perfection. We started with their house bread which was served warm & utterly delicious! We ordered brushcetta before realizing they serve warm bread, but we didn't care, they were both so good. We also had the mussels as an appetizer served in a tomato sauce. When the server asked us if we wanted more bread to soak up the sauce we did not hesitate to say yes! Lol it was that good! My main course was Chicken parmesan. It came with spaghetti noodles in a very generous portion. They were not shy with the size of the chicken breast either it was a huge portion. It was tender & so tasty, like I mentioned before, cooked to perfection. My son ordered Chicken Cacciatore & was happy with his selection. He likes peppers & chicken so naturally he loved it! He even tried a piece of my chicken parm which he agreed was very good. He will be finishing off the leftovers later as a snack. Lol
We saved a little room for dessert. We both had a decaf coffee which we thoroughly enjoyed & shared a strawberry almond cheesecake. It was heavenly. 👌😋
We are already talking about making plans to return. We caught Spiros in action doing his thing which felt like a celebrity siting! Next time we hope to see Steve. We are huge fans of their videos. 🤭
Needless to say we enjoyed the service, the food & the ambiance. Vivaldi is a must try if you are looking for quality service & excellent food! 👍👍
