We love coming here and will continue to do so. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great coffee shop with an amazing vibe.”

“The best authentic Mexican food in northern Michigan. If you want real Mexican food this is the only place to go. Cajun shrimp tacos is my favorite.”

“great food great people .”

“Arrived after the kitchen closed, so can’t comment on the food. The music (genre) was good and at a very comfortable volume. The place was busy, happy, hoppin’, and welcoming. Rumor is they have “great burgers and killer pizza”. Next time we’re in town we’ll try to get there earlier to check that out.”

“Friendly atmosphere, dog friendly!! I got the White Sangria, I must say DELICIOUS!!! Wish I could have gotten a pitcher to go!! I purchased a bottle of the Lake House wine (white sweet wine), can’t wait to share with friends. Will be a place I visit every time I’m in the area.”

“I've eaten pizza all over the country, and every once in a while you come across a place that completely exceeds your expectations. That's exactly what happened with the Vivio Special at Vivio's in Indian River, Michigan.

I know Dave Portnoy judges a pizza by the cheese slice, and I actually agree with that. It's the best way to judge the fundamentals of a pizza. But if you ever find yourself at Vivio's, you're missing out if you don't order the Vivio Special.

This pizza is loaded with mozzarella, pepperoni, bacon, fresh mushrooms, green peppers, and onions (I skip the optional anchovies). On paper, it sounds like a classic supreme. In reality, it's one of the best specialty pizzas I've ever had.

The crust is what really sets it apart. It's perfectly crisp on the outside while staying soft and chewy on the inside. The sauce has incredible flavor without being overly sweet or acidic, and the cheese-to-sauce ratio is spot on. Every topping tastes fresh, and nothing overpowers anything else. Every bite has the perfect combination of crust, cheese, sauce, meat, and vegetables. It's one of those pizzas where you immediately know the people making it genuinely care about the product they're putting out.

I've had pizza all over the country, and the Vivio Special deserves to be mentioned with some of the best specialty pizzas I've eaten. My score is an 8.6 out of 10. That's an outstanding score, especially for a loaded specialty pizza, and one I'd happily order again and again.

Dave Portnoy, here's my challenge to you. I know your system is based on cheese pizza, and I respect that. But if you're ever traveling through Northern Michigan, stop into Vivio's. Order the cheese to keep it official, then order the Vivio Special. I think this little hidden gem might surprise you.

Northern Michigan has a lot to offer, and this pizza is one of its best-kept secrets.

One bite... everybody knows the rules. 🍕”

“Great service from the guy working 1/30/26 at 7:20. I apologized for coming in with a large order and he helped well and had such a good energy and very respectful and understanding why I needed the big order for. Was fantastic to talk with him and he labeled each sandwich for me! This is what makes this subway fantastic the customer service they have from their employees!”

“I went with my two teenage daughters and Doberman puppy, after school 11/20. We got three drinks and they were delicious! We got our puppy a pup cup with whipped cream and milk bones. There were two super friendly young ladies working, it looked like one was training. They were so nice and helpful! Our drinks were amazing. I told the barista my Starbucks drink order and she helped me switch it to a Biggby drink. The prices are a lot cheaper than Starbucks and we loved it! Super customer service! We will be back. Love it. One thing I do think they should put a sign out on 75 so more people know it’s there. I hope this location will thrive.”

“My husband and I had a wonderful experience at The Farmers Table yesterday. The cozy atmosphere and true farm‑to‑table cooking make every meal taste like real home‑cooked comfort. They use locally sourced meats and farm‑fresh ingredients, and you can truly taste the quality. Our waitress, Alissa, was fantastic — friendly, patient, and she even took my food allergies seriously, offering thoughtful solutions so I could enjoy my meal safely. She also answered all my questions about the Serendipity Farms products they sell. My eyes were being wacky and Alissa even READ the ingredients for me. That’s Northern Michigan charm in action! Before you leave, check out their selection of local goodies: honey, jams, jellies, sauces, meats, fresh milk, and creamer. Bring a little extra cash because you’ll want to take some home. This place is a true local gem with great food and even better people.”

“Very good turkey cheddar onion green pepper panini”

“Four of us went on Saturday. We all ordered the prime rib. It was great. Nothing left on any of our plates. Even the vegetables were delicious . I highly recommend the prime rib!”

“We stopped yesterday. Best service at an ice cream shop ever!! Kids loved the pizza. 100% recommend!”

“Janes sweet creations did such an amazing job with the cake for my Dad's 70th. She did everything i asked for and even put in the small details and little touches! Would highly recommend, efficient and friendly. Cake also tasted delicious!!”

“Stopped for a beer while staying at the State Park. All 4 beers on tap were very good, cannot speak to the wine offerings personally since that's not my preference. Staff was wonderful.”

“We got to eat here Saturday night while visiting friends. I have to say that it was the best food I think I've ver had. I wish Chef Dean had a restaurant in our hometown. Amazing!”

“Service is GREAT and the food and environment is the best.”

“Place was packed but our food came in a reasonable time, food was tasty although our burgers were a bit well done but we did say no blood so there's that. I thought $25 for a basic cheese burger was a little pricey.”
