  • Rating: 4.0 out of 5"by Christina D. at Yelp User Review2/22/2013Vivace is a new favorite for me. I had the linguine with clams (I forget the name on the menu) and I was delicious. There were tons of clams and it light yet flavorful. Perfect. My boyfriend had the stuffed chicken with mashed potatoes. I had a bite and it was good also. We will definitely be back!

I had their spaghetti with meatballs and it was very good as well. I need to come back to try more dishes so I can have a better opinion of this place but so far I like what I have tried.

I just think it is very unprofessional to allow a reservation and not be able to honor it. We called Divino and got a table in 5 minutes. Read full review
  • Rating: 4.0 out of 5"by Dynise B. at Yelp User Review12/31/2012Great ambiance, really good food. I met my niece here and we started with Prosecco, carpaccio and the butter lettuce salad. She had the Penne con Salsiccia and I had the Osso Buco and both were very good, especially the polenta served alongside the Osso Buco. For dessert, her choice won, the … Read full review
