• Italian • Edmonton
Booked 15 times today
vivo is where Italian comes alive. We relish the enthusiasm and joy with which the traditional Italian meal is prepared and delivered, and seek to recreate that experience for every guest. Our open kitchen showcases our chefs preparing fresh and local ingredients.When you join us for dinner, expect it to be a relaxing evening lasting a couple hours over several piatti (courses). Your table comes alive when we present a variety of large offerings on platters or bowls within easy reach of all.A classic Italian pranzo (dinner) usually beings with a variety of antipasti (hot and cold appetizers), followed by one or two primi (usually a hot pasta, risotto, gnocchi or zuppa). Next your table will share a secondi (entrees) served on a platter combined with your choice of contorni (vegetable side dishes). Italians often complete their meal with un dolce, un caffe, or un digestivo (dessert, espresso, liqueur or grappa).we only use fresh in house made pastas and sauces.

    The restaurant was moody and dark upon entering, but in a good way. The music was loud but not too loud. Enough to hear the conversation at our table but not at the next. The staff was polite and knowledgeable and most importantly timely. Our drinks were delicious and the food was outstanding. Overall experience was excellent except for the bathrooms being in the way of the kitchen staff, but alas that was no one’s fault. We will definitely be back!

    You get what you pay for here. It's not a weekly eatery, but for special occasions with that special someone, it's gold. Highly recommended.

    We had a couple cocktails that were not very good. For the price I would expect a high level of quality.

    I've been to Tiki a few times with friends and I had a date night this last time and yet again. Tiki has not disappointed! It was her first time and like me we both loved the energy, food, and drinks are on point. This place brings a fresh vibe to Edmonton and I highly recommend this place to anyone!
