Vivoli In Firenze

Vine recomendado a probar el ‘caffe affogato’ y la experiencia merece la pena, aunque siempre está a tope. Lo mejor es tomárselo afuera

It's a coffee with ice cream what makes it special the presentation way, the place quite small with long Q line, there is a small windows for serving from it coffee which everyone taking a picture.

A place I have been to several times, a point of reference if I want to eat fish in Florence. Minimal tasteful furnishings and open kitchen, perhaps a little noisy. Excellent selection of raw dishes and variety of dishes. The weekly/daily menu almost always offers tasty options and complex dishes. It has rarely happened that I didn't like one of the rotating dishes. In this latest experience, for example, the sliced ​​swordfish, although good, did not excite me, perhaps too simple. For two people we spent 75 each for a selection of raw dishes, two starters and two second courses plus drinks. Honest price with generous portions and respectable wine selection.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fish Restaurant Vivo, and I can only say positive things. The quality of the food was outstanding; the fresh seafood and fish were perfectly prepared and tasted delicious. I was particularly impressed by the friendly service. The staff was attentive and helpful without being intrusive, making me feel welcome and well taken care of. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that I would recommend to any seafood lover! I’m already looking forward to my next visit.

Recommended if you like raw food, comfortable and informal environment

Truly exceptional fish dinner. The tartares are really good, but the highlight of the evening was the swordfish steak.

An excellent restaurant, fish caught in the Grosseto area of ​​Tuscany, excellent quality and excellent freshness!

Returned with great pleasure but was a little disappointed with the service. There were three of us, the youngest 52 years old. The waitress arrives and greets us with a Hello. Nothing absolutely offensive, for goodness sake. Evidently Latin American, no one duly informed her that in a place that pretends to be of a good standard, if some customers have white hair it is perhaps better to address them as Lei. Peace. I'm looking for the courgette carpaccio, present in the online menu. “No, there isn't, but they'll do it if you want.” He answers me. “But that's not possible, it should be marinated in lemon” I point out. Well, let's move on. Ordered and ate well, as always happened to me at Vivo. Twice we were asked "Is everything okay?", which is supposed to be a kindness but in reality is a nuisance. Peace. I linger for a few minutes on my dish, the girl comes by to remove the plates of my guests who had just finished: where did she learn? Too much attention is not always welcomed. The wipes are only brought to us after we finish and the dishes taken away. The wrong bottle of wine at first, then remedied immediately. When paying I try to change €20 to leave a €10 tip. Nobody has to change and I was sorry, because I have always felt tipping is a duty, but given the experience of the evening I didn't want to leave 20. One flaw in the menu: fish restaurant that doesn't have lemon sorbet. Patience. However, there are some flaws that do not speak in favor of Vivo. Maybe something has changed in management? In my opinion, good will is not enough if there is not sufficient training.

Excellent restaurant, I recommend taking the raw fish, excellent quality of fish, I recommend it to everyone

Exceptional experience, excellent quality local clean fish. 5 stars are few for this chef, he deserves many more
