Went here for a nice dinner. The service and venue were very nice but I wouldn’t write home about the food. For entree we got the burrata salad - I am used to good burrata with a gooey centre, the burrata we received for the entree seemed like something you’d get in a packet at Woollies. You paid an extra $6 for prosciutto which ended up being one literal slice. Mains were steak (apparently very good), octopus pasta (average) and seafood linguine (verdict was not tasty - couldn’t even finish it). So mains were actually nothing to write home about. Dessert the lemon tart which was not presented in a fine dining way (as price would suggest) and taste was average. So, if you are someone who can’t cook or doesn’t have a good point of reference then sure, go there and you might have a nice meal. But if you consider yourself a foodie then give it a miss as the food is nothing to write home about and definitely not the best Italian in Melbourne.

We had an absolutely fantastic evening with all the delicious dishes and great wine. The service was great having Roberto as our waiter,who was very attentive and highly professional and added aditional italian flavour to the already fantastic authentic italian experience. We started with a mixed plateau of antipasti complimented well with chilled Prosecco.The arrancini followed and they were absolutely delicious. I chose porcini&king brown mashroom risoto with goat cheese and truffle mousse and crispy leak. it was just perfect complimented with Shiraz. The salmon fillet with quinoa and pearly cous-cous,fennel and chargrilled zucchini was simply fantastic. The deserts did not disappoint either.The dark Belgian chocolate marquise with honey wipped ricotta and citrus segments and candid walnuts was the desired great finish of the dinner. We would love to come back again and would recommend it as a "must go" culinary destination in Brighton.

Excellent food and service. Staff are very attentative, very happy and respectful and make you feel special and important. You are greeted with a warm smile and also bidded farewell with a pleasant goodbye and door opening as we left. Food was just perfect in flavour and presentation. My husband and I enjoyed dinner for 2 for my birthday today, and really enjoyed it, including a birthday voucher from Vivace. It was a bit noisy but that comes with going out at this time of year with Christmas events etc too. So thanks to Chris who personally comes round and serves and makes sure all is well and chats a little as well, and another gentleman who was very cheery and attentive (sorry don't know his name), but thank you. So we highly recommend Chris and his staff at Vivace, the food and service was excellent and the nothing was wrong. A memorable evening was enjoyed by us.

Chris and the team at Vivace add sparkling service to great food all inside a fabulous venue. The menu is just is simple, spectacular and normally accompanied by a couple specials. In addition the wine menu has depth and breadth to suit most budgets, and even the most discerning. This is a place where you have time and space to kick back and saviour the experience, and there is no doubt that some will mention the accompanying pricing reflects the experience. In summary, highly recommended!

Had a wonderful time at Vivace - the Pork Cutlet was a standout, perfectly cooked and lightly crumbed with a side salad featuring fresh anchovies. My partner had the Sarono Sour cocktail and said that it was to die for. We opted to have dessert, although the main could have been enough - the Bombe Alaska was a challenge to get through but my personal highlight of the dinner. Service was excellent, attentive and friendly with a great knowledge of the menu. Will be back!
