This was our first time at the restaurant and the food was absolutely delicious. Awesome happy hour as well. We will definitely be returning especially since we were served and greeted by Tommy Russo at the bar. He is fantastic.

Bartender was on fire ? tonight! I didn’t get her name but Lychee Martini was the best I ever had! Flavourful, powerful and just what I needed after a really bad day/week/tax season (I’m a CPA so you get it)Food is always awesome and consistent! Best pizza in town, mussels appetizer is my favourite!! Meatballs are my husband’s favourite and I think my son shows up for the bread o& calamari only!Love this place! It gets better and better!

This is my go to spot every week. For a bite, for a meal and for a date night. The vibe is simply great, everyone is very attentive. The new decor is wonderful and the food is so delicious. This is definitely a hidden gem!

Extremely nice and attentive staff, the food was incredible with a great ambiance. I have to especially mention the Antipasto, which is a charcuterie with exceptional quality meat cheeses and peppers. The manager, Tommy, came up to us like a family member and had us all laughing at the table. 5 stars would come back soon. Try the pizza and antipasto, you won't be disappointed! P.S. the cupcakes aren't that important

This was my first and last visit to Vivace. Only giving one star because it wouldn't let me post without one. We were 11 girls out celebrating a birthday. The birthday girls husband brought in specialty made cupcakes for each of us a surprise. Service was non-existence, dirty plates remained on our table the entire evening, my friend had to get water and refill our glasses; there was no server. When it came time for dessert, we found out that they gave our cupcakes to another table. No explanation other than it was our fault (still trying to understand this one). Manager was extremely rude!

There are no words for what a terrible dinner we had last night. No server, no water service, they gave away our specially made dessert to another table, and then no apology. This is not the way to run a business especially when you have 11 local Customers sitting at a table.

Had a lovely date night here with friends. Sat at a table in the lounge area and enjoyed the saxophonist. It was a very busy night with a few large parties and Tommy, the manager, worked very hard to make sure everyone had a wonderful time! Our antipasto was plentiful and beautifully presented and the meatball appetizer was delicious. The four of us each had different main dishes. The Bronzino was perfectly prepared and the gnocchi Alfredo was outstanding. The staff was very accommodating to dietary requests on our orders of chicken parmigiana and shrimp scampi. Both were terrific. We enjoyed some Coppola Claret with our meal. Topped it off with Bombolini which were chocolate drizzled zeppole and finished up with coffee and cappuccino, and one of us had a cappuccino martini, which was fabulous. We will be back for sure!

Hi! The owners should be so embarrassed by the way we were treated at this restaurant. I went for a birthday this week with 11 people. Unfortunately, we had horrendous service. We never had a waiter come to our drinks, appetizers or meal without having to walk to the front of the restaurant to ask for service. If that was not bad enough, then they gave another table the outside celebratory dessert.
Pasta is quite overcooked and the chef uses more salt than the Dead Sea. We sent the lobster ravioli back and replaced it due to high salt content. The linguine and clams was very oily and ultra salty as well. My blood pressure was a bit high the next day. Last time going here.

I’m a guy that grew up eating homemade sauce and meatballs every single Sunday and this place is great! Feels like a larger version of home with truly great food. The atmosphere is very enjoyable as well. Highly recommend.

If I could give 6 stars I would. The meals were terrific and the atmosphere was great. As for the service - I asked for a cold adult beverage and they had just run out, instead of telling me they were out.... our server left the restaurant headed to a nearby store and purchased it, simply to "not disappoint a customer"Ordered, the eggplant Parmigiano, fra diavolo, chicken marsala all were absolutely excellentWe will definitely be back

We stumbled upon this lovely restaurant when we were googling “calzone.” My husband had to have one. We arrive and both immediately felt like we knew our waiter in a past life. After questioning him we figured it out! He use to be a bartender at another restaurant we frequented in the past. What a small world. Tommy was amazing. He immediately had me with his personality, even before i made the connection. He’s the reason we will be back. Oh, and the food, Excellent! I had rigatoni bolognese and my husband had a calzone that could feed an army! It was much larger than expected. What a hidden gem in plantation!

OMG, because why are they SOOO GOOD. Literally, everything on the menu is amazing. Let's start with the ambiance. Before you enter the restaurant, you are greeted with a flood of greenery in an herb garden. Once inside, you have clean, comfortable seating and ambient light at each table. Now to the menu. Some of my favs are the Lobster Crab cakes. They have a unique arrangement of spices with a very unique coconut sauce. The bang bang shrimp and calamari are some of the best you will ever have. I'm conflicted between the bread and the garlic rolls as they are both amazing. All of the pasta dishes are perfectly cooked , not soggy, not hard, with an array of different , very flavorable sauces. The seafood is ridiculous. The fish has a nice crust on the outside but is super flaky and soft on the inside. And don't let me even start on the pizza. The dough on the regular pizza is amazing, but if you really want to treat, try their cauliflower pizza. They have a large assortment of amazing cocktails and martinis , along with perfectly baked desserts. From the service to the pricing to the clean environment, 5 stars all around. Hats off to the ?? he really has made a stellar menu. Highly recommend for Italian and Seafood dishes!!
