Olivia was lovely, attentive, engaging and every course was timed perfectly. She told the chef it was my birthday and a gorgeous banana walnut cake arrived, compliments of the staff. Thank you for a memorable evening!

The service was very poor unfortunately. The food took FOREVER and there was no other customers in the restaurant. A couple drink orders were wrong and the bloody Mary’s were thick as smoothies and the food was just incredibly average. Unfortunate for such a beautiful looking restaurant

I’ve been to Vicente a handful of times but this was the best! My favorite bottle of wine, the salmon and risotto and the Brussels sprouts! Service from Olivia was perfect.

VRB is a beautiful restaurant located downstairs in The Carmichael Hotel. We sat at a small table for two. The noise level was quiet the food taste. The vegetarian quiche is a fluffy soufflé of goodness. Paired with the salad and dressing elevated the dish, but pieces of the leaves in my salad were brown, the potatoes were under seasoned, and the chicken sausage was overcooked but edible. My husband enjoyed his western omelette that he described as cooked to perfection. We were hoping to try the blueberry lemon scones but they only had pumpkin. If I could make a suggestion please have an alternative to seasonal scones.

Our server Olivia who was also the bartender tonight was very attentive and helpful with suggestions. She also created a great mock tail for my girlfriend who is allergic to alcohol. We love the atmosphere. Probably the first time that our entrees were not prepared to the normal perfection that we experienced there. Our salad, soup, dessert and drinks were wonderful. We will be back soon as we love the restaurant and upstairs bar.
Vivante Restaurant & BarResponded on 11 November 2024

We pride ourselves on offering a welcoming experience for all our guests, and it’s wonderful to know we hit the mark with your salad, soup, dessert, and drinks. We're also grateful for your honest comments about the entrees. We sincerely apologize that they didn’t meet the high standards we aim for, and we will be sure to share your feedback with our kitchen team to ensure that we deliver the same level of excellence you’ve come to expect from us in the future.
