Vivotto Avignon — Restaurant in Avignon

Fantastic cafe! It was so good to find delicious good value vegetarian food here in Avignon. It was also healthy. Haven't seen anything similar with the reusable jar system so it's very innovative. Unfortunately we've been disappointed by the vegetarian food on offer in this area of France so finding this lovely food was a real bonus on our holiday.

We had a cold gazpacho made of melon, a pasta salad and aubergine parmigiana-would never have thought this would be so good to eat cold on a hot day! and chocolate mousse/ chocolate cake. I noticed the ingredients list was all whole food, proper veg and no chemicals or e numbers. The deal was for 14.50 then you get refillable water.

I loved the environmental considerations such as the reusable jars, proper cutlery, refillable water bottles.

I'm sure if you were vegan or gluten free you would be happy here as there is a range of options.

No wonder it's so popular. You can choose to sit under the shade of a huge tree and enjoy your lunch. And the staff were...

It is exactly what you expect when you see the food inside when you pass by: premade food is in the fridge in glass jars. We got a “formula” which is a starter, main, dessert. Everything was delicious (of course it wasn’t cooked to order and I didn’t expect my penne to be al dente). The waitress was helpful with recommendations, explanations of each meal/ingredients, spoke good English. She offered to heat up our mains. I recommend this place for a quick bite which was perfect for us because we didn’t feel like a full sit down and wait-to-be-served dinner. Also, there are many vegan and gluten free options.

P.S. I cannot believe some bad reviews that say it wasn’t properly heated up (I mean does your microwave at home heat up everything evenly? No it doesn’t) or some reviews from cheap people who expect to get a Michelin...

Thank you very much Vivotto for this yummy dinner. This place is definitely good for people on a budget who also care about regional food and reduced packaging. I do however have some improvements I cannot stay silent about. As you can see in the picture, the bowls need to be placed on trays which are lined with a paper. As always I refused this single-use (and really unnecessary) item. Sadly I got told off by the waiter for doing so, since it’s company policy to use them. He explained it’s because they don’t have time to clean them. This is a very lame excuse, I’m sorry. I even offered to clean it myself, but he said he didn’t have soap. It’s obvious that the owner of this restaurant cares about reducing waste. My recommendation is to wash the trays and not to offer any candy wrapped in plastic (...don’t get me...
