Great Italian and Greek food we have had in many years. I reviewed this on another site. I had the special on July 31,2015/ Pastisio.. It was delicious! We both enjoyed the Insalata de Caesar, and hubby had Risotto di Mare with very rave reviews on another site, we were glad that we went. In fact, other than in Italy, this is my fav Italian Ristorante in any state( other than in Virginia). The pasta is made fresh. The musician on weekend nights is also excellent. The person who stated that their food was " too salty"; the salt in the Greek pasta was just right, and my hubby enjoyed his perfect risotto dish. Neither of us like things overly salty either. We have been to other Italian and Greek restaurants in Seattle, Bothell and Bellvue. Vivendo has won awards for their food. My only issue was the intense heat during that time frame, so Sofie moved us to a table closer to the a c. Also , I had wonderful Pastisio for lunch at our hotel from the left over dinner . Bellissimo! The owners are very welcoming and warm.

Looking at the reviews while searching for a place to book a group dinner, i thought this place would be perfect. I called them to make my reservation and was expecting everything to be clear and taken cared of. I was trusting enough. But sad to say, I am deeply disappointed. They called me the last minute to say they want more money and wanted to make changes with our agreement when I already thought we made everything clear as Ive called a couple of times weeks before our reservation. They blatantly were not willing to cater to us. Their customer service is no where near to what I was expecting. Sad to say I have to give a bad review and how unfortunate that we and our guests would have been recurring customers. But after how we were treated, Id rather take my money elsewhere. Quality of food must be at par with your customer service which I failed to see. To sum it up, unprofessional and disappointing. Its a good thing I decided to cancel and go elsewhere willing to take in customers and treat them right.

This was honestly the best Italian restaurant I have been to. Great atmosphere sitting outside in the patio area. The appetizers were just a hint of the awesomeness about to come. My daughter & I shared 2 dishes the chicken parmesan and fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp. Chicken was so flavorful and melt in my mouth. The Alfredo sauce was to die for and the noodles seemed home made and freshly made that day. My younger daughter had the kids cheese pizza and loved it and even loved the roaming chickens playing outside. My wife had some lemon chicken dish and her plate was empty and honestly that never happens - ever! I would give this 6 stars if I could.

Worst dining experience I have had at a "fine" establishment. I know people dont usually read a whole review so I will start with the cons: (mainly because I cant start with the pros as there are none) -service was terrible -food was over priced and mediocre at best -portions were small Essentially, its not the worst dining experience Ive ever had... but close enough that I shouldnt be paying $50 for a salad and an entree. Will under no circumstances return to this eatery. I dunno, maybe their wines are good or something. Just dont come for food... or good service

Risotto di Mare ... incredible . We went on an early Friday and had the dining room mostly to ourselves and total attention from staff. Who seemed new but eager to be professional. Loved the place in its previous format , but now less clutter and quieter a plus. Risotto di Mare , Lobster Bisque , prawns and salmon risotto rivaled the pumpkin risotto at Barking Frog... high praise...

DONT go to this restaurant. It take them more than an hour to get my order, the food tasted like cheap tomato sauce, waisted more than $90 for a meal that I didnt eat. Ended up eating food from the drive thru in my way home. This place is NOT worth it, you will lose your time and money. Spend your money somewhere else.

I was given food too highly salted. It made me quite ill. I am sure it was just a mistake in the kitchen but the owner, Sophia, was very rude when I told her. Sophia told me it was me not them. I was quite taken back by her lack of concern for the customer.

Ive never been to a better restaurant. The atmosphere felt like home, our waiter was the owner and was amazing. The food.... Never had better. Was a random find on Google and we will forever be returning! One of the best dining experiences Ive ever had.

The best little Italian spot in the area. Exquisite food (absolutely love their halibut on risotto) with a nice cozy atmosphere. The staff is extremely nice and accommodating to dietary needs. Cant wait to come back!

Truly a warm & inviting ambiance & staff. Everything I tasted was absolutely delicious. Especially fun for me during the 2-6pm happy hour menu. Definitely worth a return trip & a great place for a night out.

The food was very good, and I highly recommend the lasagna. You shouldnt be in a rush when you come here. Its not that the service is slow, its that you should enjoy the family feel and wonderful owners.

This fabulous restaurant replaced a mediocre restaurant and thank goodness it did. The risotto is amazing! The Bruschette alla Melanzane was delicious! I will be returning again and again!

Food has been excellent every time. Nice atmosphere, nicely refined with a touch of swank. Good for a quiet night out with your lady. The live music is a nice touch.

This is by far the best Italian restaurant in the area. Just returned from Venice, and this satisfies our urge to return to Italy... for now.

Decent value but food is too rich and menu too limited. Not much greek. Not recommended for gluten intolerant. Same song played all night.

Their Osso Bucco was awesome! Call a day ahead and ask them to get it going for you. It will be a meal to celebrate and be remembered.

Not worth it. Save your money and go to the Spaghetti Factory. This isnt real Italian food. It is cheap food for a high price.
