The value for the a tasting menu was great! However, we found the service to be not great. Some of the menu items had different ingredients then what was listed on the tasting menu. I have peanut allergy and I asked for one item to be adjusted without nuts, they offered to make me a steak instead (which was nice) However they did not give my wife the original menu item, which she wanted because she does not have a nut allergy, just me. Our server was apologetic for the errors but it did not make for an overall great experience

We are at Vivo Bloor on Valentine’s Night. It was a set menu with a six course taste test. Everything was delicious and the drinks were amazing. The best espresso martini I’ve ever tasted. My favourite dish was the pasta. It was super fresh and light, and you could tell they used high quality ingredients based on how the pomodoro sauce tasted. They served a Carpaccio di Zucca and it was divine. Every course after that was outstanding. Would definitely go back.

Would give 6/5 stars if I could. The new menu is AMAZING! Everything we tasted was delicious, full of unique flavours and the presentation was unreal. Would definitely recommend for an upscale Italian dining experience. We loved the steak tartare, calamari, margarita pizza, shrimp and the ragu pasta! Also, the espresso martini was perfection.

Exceeded all my expectations. A modern but a cozy vibe with an open kitchen. Everything we ate and drank was amazing. Prosciutto Croquettes, Veal Ragu, Margherita pizza were my favourites. The steak tartar was the prettiest thing I've ever eaten, almost too pretty to eat - but eat it, its amazing. Could not recommend this place more.

The absolutely best trattoria in the west. Delicious plates of the highest quality. Service that sizzles. A space and lounge that embrace you. The fresh pastas are made daily in the Junction and shipped to the resto daily. Their executive chef (Nick) touches all Dishes and moves them to an EPIC CRESCENDO!!! The setting is pure magic (right across from high park). Always offering their clients new menus regularly that compliment the season superbly. Their pizzas are loaded with exquisite imported ingredients and baked in a wood oven to a heavenly perfection.
