Vivoli

This is an authentic Italian Restauraunt in the heart of Little Italy in Toronto. They have a wood fire pizza oven, fresh pastas and some really good cocktails. My favorite was the espresso martini. For mains we had the chicken alfredo and chicken parmigiana, and for dessert the gelato. The menu isn't huge but that may be a plus as you know each has likely been cooked numerous times by the chefs. They have specials for events including Winterlicious, Valentines Day and the Super Bowl, and they have a really nice patio which for colder months they tent up and add heat to, to make it cozy.

Nice patio upstairs, not crowded. service was fairly quick and the food tasted fine, not spectacular. Cheesecake didn't taste fresh, I would not take it again there. Otherwise everything was okay.

Absolutely delicious dinner! The gnocchi rose was fantastic and the sauce was amazing. The seafood linguine was also very tasty- the mussels had a really nice flavor and I liked the large roasted garlic chunks. We sat outside on their first floor patio, but were easily able to move inside when it started raining. Our waitress was very kind and accommodating too!

Had a pizza on this visit. Room for lots of people and groups. Sat upstairs on the patio. There's a patio at street level too. What a great view of the happenings on college Street. The pizza was a good size (I was stuffed) and had a thin+ crust. Both of us loved our pizza. The staff was attentive and gave us a few minutes extra when we asked for it. The tables were wide and spaced apart nicely. (Not crowded) Umbrellas shaded us from the setting sun. What a spot! They make a killer Aperol spritz :)

I visited because it was Valentine's Day and because it is customary to eat Italian food. I don't know if it's as delicious as I thought. The mussels were out of season and had a strong fishy smell, so I sprayed the lemons until they withered. Ravioli was a bit salty. Rather, the wine was good. Because it was the freshest and suited my taste. Even in Valentine's Day, this was my first time in a restaurant with so much empty space. The staff were friendly and cozy.

Great portions for the price you pay!! Came here to celebrate a birthday and everything tasted fresh for our small group. You will definitely leave feeling full especially if you get the pasta or pizza. The pizza was cooked perfectly and it was fresh. Staff was friendly and service was a reasonable amount of time. Overall, nice play to get a spot to eat during the summer and you can enjoy the rooftop patio.
