My first time there, to celebrate a friend's birthday. I was told they have 2 seatings, but our reserved spot for about 18 was able to stay for most of the evening. I had table d'hôte of grilled salmon. Was very tasty & moist, all veggies were al dente just how I like it with rice. Entrees were shared & what I noticed with my meal, all entrees were all nice & hot, freshly made. My minestrone soup was tasty but could have been a bit hotter when served. But that's me...all in all I would return. I tried a bite of some chicken marsala (my friends order), very good. Our waiters kept the water glasses full & were very helpful. Good service. For our large group, all was served in a timely matter, no long waiting. No loud music, very busy spot, but all our conversations were heard & shared which was nice. We didn't have to yell back & forth to one another! Most of the guests looked happy while they ate !

Dined at Vivaldi New Years Eve & it was perfect. Minnestrone soup was tasty, the mussels marinara was plentiful. The veal marsala was tasty & fresh & the grilled salmon was seared & seasoned perfectly. Service was attentive without feeling rushed.

Great food. Great atmosphere. Came here all the way from Toronto for my birthday after following the restaurant on social media for an awhile. Was not dissatisfied. Had the bruschetta, gnocchi & pizza. Everything was fresh & delicious & the service was awesome. Even got to meet the man himself! Really appreciate taking the time & care to make my birthday feel special. Would come again 10/10. Also, for the quality the price was incredible. Can't wait to come back. Vivaldi!

Bring your own wine restaurant which is always nice. We had the sausage sub. The sausage is made in house which is great, but it was on the dry side. The bread & fries were over cooked unfortunately. The pizza we ordered was better. The ingredients were fresh & generously topped. The service was great! The waiter was young & was on point.

We went there my son & I last night for dinner around 8:30 & showed up 15 minutes late but there was no issue they gave us a table right away now the table we got was against the small separating wall in the corner so between the front window & their kitchen & we were against the small wall in the corner so like literally in the corner so as far as seating it wasn't that great but everything else was good.
We were served by Jesse & found him serviceable & polite. He remembered to bring everything we asked for & more. They are lucky to have him working there, oh & Jesse also bragged about their head chef on how he was a'real superstar' who is one of the reasons we went there to begin with.
My son saw cooking videos of the chef on TikTok & said'he really looks like a chef, the kind you'd see in a movie' & he claimed the cooking skills he filmed on TT were impressive.
So we went to try it & it was really good we had the pizza with Italian sausage & pepperoni & it was a 12-in I believe it was way too much for me but it was delicious we just couldn't stop eating it was like a drug it was so good honestly worth going so you're not sure where to go tonight take a drive there on Gouin Blvd in Pierrefonds I will leave the address at the end but take the time You're not sure where to go you want a pizza you want pasta you want a steak you want some chicken you want some veal you want some amazing appetizers we had the calamari & it was the best we've had & I'm not just saying that I'm honest on my reviews seeing Im a local guide level 7 with almost 1 million views of my comments & I will always speak accurately, this place is highly rated & there's a reason for it if you have a chance go look at the videos on TikTok just put Vivaldi & you'll see the chef doing his thing & whatever you do try is hot jardiniere if you're a spicy food amateur will love it anyways the food was super fresh the service was super good Jesse was amazing, the place it was very busy with people everywhere & it was very good, I highly recommend it & don't forget to leave a review be honest I left a couple of pictures so you can look at their pizza & the calamari & like I said it's worth it to try it.
So don't wait get up get out ask your mother your sister your brother your father your neighbor your co-worker the stranger on the street to go out & eat & try this place out you will love it so don't hesitate don't procrastinate Go try this & if you happen to be in Jesse's section you're going to find the service amazing as well as the food so there's no reason for you not to get up & go try it, here's the address, go tonight!!

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!

Been frequenting this restaurant for the past 16+ years. Quality has never diminished. Always top notch quality & service. Everything on the menu is good, fresh & they use quality ingredients. The wait staff is very attentive & professional. The place is by far my favorite restaurant.

Food was good, but really nothing to bring home. For examples on the pasta, they use Parmesan cheese instead of Parmesiano, which just doesn't taste the same
Portion wise is pretty good, big enough for one person but might be lacking if you're hungry
Taste wise it could be better, it's lacking a certain freshness in most of its
ingredients. Pasta is overcooked

Service wasn't very good we waiting a long time & as it turns out our server was late so there weren't anybody to take our orders

Bring your own wine big plus

As fans of Vivaldi's on Instagram & YouTube, my wife & I were really looking forward to finally visiting - & it definitely lived up to the hype. We came all the way from Quebec City & had a great evening.

The service was excellent from start to finish. Our waiter, David, was attentive & nice. We also had the pleasure of meeting Steve, the owner, which made the night feel even more personal & welcoming.

As for the food - we loved it. I had the pizza, which was piping hot, fresh, & full of flavour. My wife had pasta & was equally impressed. Everything came out quickly & was clearly made with care.

That said, there were just a couple of small things that stood out. The squid appetizer was very good but the onions were cut way too large. & the Caesar salad could've used a bit more dressing. It was still tasty, but felt a bit on the dry side.

Aside from those two minor things, the whole experience was really solid. Great ambiance, great food, big portions & genuine people behind it all. We'd definitely come back next time we're in town!

As we entered we were immediately greeted by some of the kindest staff I have ever encountered. Fluent English was a big help since my French is poor

Food was great, pizza was hot & fresh, generous amount of high quality toppings, flavourful sauce. Crispy but tender crust. Special shout-out to Steve on the home made sausage.

Caesar salad was so crisp & fresh, could taste the anchovies in the sauce, that or the most flavourful capers I have ever tasted lol. The small was more than enough to go with my pizza as I needed a to-go box to finish the pizza later on at home.

I had originally wanted to go there from seeing the YouTube videos. We actually changed the trip around last minute so we'd be able to make it for dinner without rushing the last day, you folks got busy very quickly once we were done our meal so I didn't get the chance to meet Steve. But, We will be back

Vivaldi!

We drove just under 3 hours from Vermont to experience Vivaldi. My son & I love watching the YouTube content. He says Steve is the best chef on YouTube. So, for his birthday, I took him. & it was very well worth it! The service, the atmosphere, the food, all 10 out of 10. We got to meet Steve, too! Thank you for that! I'm Dad of the year now lol. From the moment we walked in the door till the moment we walked out, the staff was great! Warm & welcoming, knowledgeable about the menu, as we had questions. There's nothing like eating food that you can taste the freshness & simplicity. All the flavors were there. A very memorable meal & a very memorable experience. Thank you Steve & staff!

My husband & I paid a visit to this restaurant last night.

First things first, the service is IMPECCABLE.
We reserved for 19:00, & the moment we sat down, our server almost immediately served us water & gave us a menu. A few minutes passed, then our server came again to check on us & asked us if we were ready to order, or if we needed more time (& we did need more time 😅), so he came back again to take our order (unfortunately, I don't remember our server's name, but he was efficient & knew how to do his job quite well!).

Unto the main dishes, we ordered Grilled Tunisian Octopus, & it was DELICIOUS!!! 🤤 The octopus was grilled to PERFECTION 👌 We also ordered The Fried Zucchini & Calamari combo. This appetizer was my husband's FAVORITE!!! 😁 Who knew fried zucchini would be so much better than fries!!! 🤩 The batter was not overwhelming. It was just the right amount for it to be crispy on the outside, yet still hold its form on the inside.

Shortly after our appetizer, our main dishes arrived! I got the Linguine Amalfitana (which is seafood pasta). The sauce was light & the linguine was al dente! The seafood consists of shrimps, scallops, mussels, & calamari. The scallops & calamari were cooked to perfection 👌 The shrimps were juicy 🤤 The mussels were fresh & yummy; our server even brought me a carving fork & a separate bowl for the mussels ☺? My husband chose the Tortellini Rosé & boy oh boy did he LOVE IT! It was nice & creamy, yet not overbearing. Also, we loved the flavor of the stuffed meat! We also got the Figlia Pizza on the side. The variety & the textures of the vegetables pair well with the cheese & dough.

Last but not least, DESSERT! I chose the Strawberry Almond Cheesecake, & my husband chose the Vanilla Crème Brûlé. These options were recommended by our server, & he definitely knew what he was talking about! 😄 The custard in the crème brûlé was light & not too sweet! My cheesecake was tasty, too! The strawberry syrup complimented the cheesecake so well, & the whipped cream they served with it was light & airy . It was a great way to end an awesome first visit at Vivaldi!

We 💯% recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic Italian Restaurant on the West Island! What a GEM!!! 💎

I was expecting so much more based on the prices & the look of the restaurant! We had a pizza & gnocchi… let's just say I've had better frozen pizzas it's very hard to believe they were freshly made in their ovens. The gnocchi was nothing to write home about either. Cannot complain about the service though, the waiter was very pleasant.

I had seen short videos of them online which inspired me to look them up. We went to celebrate my wife's birthday & we were very pleased that we went. The food was very good & served quickly. The appetizers ( garlic bread & calamari ) were very good. Everything that we ordered was delicious & served hot. Very fresh. Our family ( myself , wife & 18 year old twins ) enjoyed everything. Our waiter was extremely poliand efficient. We went with the expectation of a good family restaurant & it met every expectation. It is the very definition of finding where the locals go because you know it will be good. Very busy & loud but I'm saying that as a good thing because it shows how popular it is. Well deserved reputation. We will definitely go back.

Last night, we had the pleasure of dining here, & it was an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm & inviting, setting the stage for a memorable evening. We started with a selection of appetizers that truly set the tone for the meal. The octopus was simply amazing, perfectly cooked & seasoned. The Caesar salad was fresh & crisp, & the Napoletana pizza was a delightful blend of flavors, with a perfect crust & rich toppings. For our main courses, we indulged in a variety of dishes. The seafood pasta was a standout, with a generous mix of fresh seafood & a flavorful sauce. The tortellini with vegetables was equally impressive, offering a hearty & satisfying option. The veal with pasta was tender & delicious, complementing the other dishes beautifully. To finish off our meal, we enjoyed the crème brûlée & tiramisu. Both desserts were exceptional, providing a sweet & satisfying end to our dining experience. Overall, our evening was very enjoyable. The food was consistently great, & the service was attentive & friendly. We will definitely be returning soon for more!
