My wife's 60th Birthday – Our family was in town from all over the country for our daughter's wedding. My wife's big "six-oh" was 2 days later. Since the family was all in LA, I was looking for a restaurant near our hotel on Sunset Blvd. Stumbled on this place. Long story short - it was a great place to have a birthday party of 14. Sevice was top notch and everyone enjoyed the food. There was something for every taste. Everyone was friendly and catered to our party very well. Food was reasonably priced which I appreciated si... read more

Just friendly, sweet, yummy, unpretentious, authentic, wonderful! – Vivoli Cafe has become one of my favorite restaurants in L.A. It's beloved by it's regular diners because the environment is so intimate, so pleasant, and so unpretentious. The wait staff is almost 100% comprised of charming, attentive Italian men and women who make everyone feel welcome. The food is great, also in an unpretentious way. It's simply good, affordable comfort food, although the kitchen does get creative and the menu is full of so many different... read more

The best of everything! – Four of us went to Vivoli simply based on its proximity to a theatre venue, & the experience was something to which all eateries should aspire. After being greeted by the entire staff as we entered, the service was top-notch from beginning to end - completely gracious, professional & personable. Everyone operated as a team. For this type of service I could forgive a little flatness in the cuisine, but instead it was better than any restaurant I've eaten at in Italy! The prices are shockingly reasona... read more

The most authentic Italian food I've had in America – This classy and cute restaurant offers the most authentic Italian food I've had in America. True Italians, who are passionate about quality, make and serve the delightful food. I would eat at Vivoli every day if I could justify the expense...which is less than other similar establishments.

Yummy! – I received a coupon to this place and figured why not give it a try. The BEST vodka pasta I've ever tasted...no joke!!! The server was from Italy and she could not have been sweeter. I was very pleased that the food was so good and the prices were so reasonable. The Salmon with pesto was so yummy as well. Honestly...I highly recommend this place! Only thing i did not love was the desert....but other than that...GO!

Small but Surprising – There are so many Italian restuarants out there but a great one is a hard fine. This is why I was greatly surprised after going to this one. The scene at Vivoli is a small crowded room, which reminded me of lots of small trattoria in Italy. Space is not something that you look for here. Once we got seated, the waiter was fast and friendly offering up suggestions and specials. The pasta was done perfecty, not overcooked and soggy like some places. This was a great restuarant. I can't wait to go back.

Lovely – My mother, sister, and I went here a couple weekends ago for an early Saturday lunch. The place was empty, so we had fully attentive service the whole time. Helpful and gracious staff, good knowledge of what to recommend, etc. Freshly made bread to start was warm and light. My sister had the Lasagna alla Bolognese and my mother had Cannelloni Gastronomici. They both thought their dishes were very flavorful and carefully prepared (Though I didn't try them because I'm vegetarian). I had the Gnudi Toscana (spinach and ... read more

Best Italian food and service in west hollywood, – My husband and I were very pleased that Vivoli lived up to their Zaggat review. The food was wonderful!!! Very authentic/traditional home cooked Italian food. The service just matched the food...just wonderful! Although the restaurant was small, they accomodated us quickly despite we did not have reservations. We will definitely be dinning at Vivoli at a regular basis. We intend to bring our freinds and visitors from the east coast to this cozy, quaint Italian restuarant. Ov... read more
