Vivere Italian Restaurant

The service was great. The minestrone soup the threef ofuof all had was excellent. My fellow diners had the grilled chicken #3 and it was loaded with chicken and veggies. She said it was very good. The other had the lasagna. It was a big hunk and he loved it. I had the shrimp scampi with artichokes. It was more than I could eat. The sauce was the best I ever had. We all had wonderful experience.

We were in town for just a night. This place is a jem, food was great, reminded me of my Italian mothers cooking. My wife said her chicken parm was the best she ever had, and the veal was cooked to perfection. Service was impeccable. Highly recommend this place.

Decided to stop here on way home after driving past. We were told by host (manager?) it would be 5 mins tops for a table and that we were welcome to grab a drink at the bar. We waited 15-20 minutes without ever being greeted by the bartender. Eventually, the host came over and got us (and a single guy that was there before us) our first drink. She even offered wine samplings. About 5- 10 minutes later she came to get us to take us to a booth. Now within the 25+ minutes that we were sitting at the bar, we were never greeted nor checked on by the bartender. When we first got there he was getting a to-go order ready. I understand that bartenders can be busy and have multiple tasks. However, your primary task is to tend the bar - greet guests, check on guests, make drinks etc. we were very turned off by the fact that he never checked on us, nor the other guy. He never made eye contact, never acknowledged us, never said “I’ll be right with you”, nothing. He checked on another couple once in
