Beautiful restaurant
The food was delicious. Waitress was very helpful and lovely. the saffron lemon risotto was amazing. We had private room with set menu. Only gripe would be took quite a while for our meals to come out but understandable as was a pre Xmas function.

The standard of service the quality of food the atmosphere the hygiene the way that follow the rules I could not fault anything at all
Chris and Andrew are pleasant friendly and professional and any request you have they will do their best to meet the needs. It’s great to see that over the lockdown you have not dropped an inch of your standards or services keep up the good work vivace team

Great to see the Vivace team back. Nice to sit in the restaurant.
Food as always was great. Service great but relaxed even though they were working to strict guidelines.
Call out to bayside, support local and make the close out to the year a great one for Chris and the team and our other fine restaurants.

Tonight my lockdown order hadn’t gone through (my fault) yet Chris and Andrew managed to fill it in the busiest hour of their day. The oysters were the biggest and most succulent I’ve had in ages- this is one place you can eat seafood with complete confidence. The rest of the meal was superb thanks to the quality of the ingredients and excellent cooking thereof. Worth the money. We’re lucky to have a local restaurant of this reliably high calibre.

We had an absolutely fantastic evening with all the delicious dishes and great wine. The service was great having Roberto as our waiter,who was very attentive and highly professional and added aditional italian flavour to the already fantastic authentic italian experience.
We started with a mixed plateau of antipasti complimented well with chilled Prosecco.The arrancini followed and they were absolutely delicious.
I chose porcini&king brown mashroom risoto with goat cheese and truffle mousse and crispy leak. it was just perfect complimented with Shiraz.

We tried the 18 hours slow cooked lamb from their menu, trust me, we were transported to heaven and back. It was extremely delicious, fantastically cooked with so much love and care, as right from the very first bite, we fell in love with this dish. Highly recommended, I bet this one is the best dish from their menu. And do try this for an out of the world gastronomic experience. The taste still lingers in my mouth. Worth a visit.

Professional and excellent service. Staff was friendly and attentive, providing a fantastic dining experience. Came here before in 2017 and again today (4 Sep), was very impressed both times. Some of the best Italian food I’ve had in Australia. The food is delicious and the set lunch menu is an extremely good deal.
