Veni Vidi VIVI Fabulous Italian Tapas/ Small plates at VIVI the sister of the renowned Vincenzo's on Woolton Rd South Liverpool A lovely atmosphere effortlessly achieved through the decor, cool tunes, ambient lighting and the appreciative clientele. Nina ran the show with aplomb and with the help of her team provided a welcoming, friendly, professional and attentive top notch service.

Parking is on street so a little difficult to find parking when it’s busy but didn’t take too long. Had a good selection of veggie options for my vegetarian friend too. Portion sizes are on the small side so 3-4 dishes I would recommend depending on your appetite (restaurant recommends 3 dishes pp) I had 2 dishes as I’m not a big eater but the food is so nice I regret not ordering more.
