My work colleagues and I often have national Telecom company meetings in Leeds and we always go to Viva restaurant as the welcome, the food and the service is excellent and after more than 7 visits in past 2 years we have never had any complaints. Great family restaurant and fantastic food and ambiance.

I first went to Viva about three years ago on a recommendation from a friend, and have barely been anywhere else since! Even when we do Viva is the benchmark to meet. It has a lovely ambiance, great staff and a delicious steak (locally sourced to boot). My only complaint is they took the lobster ravioli off the menu, it was like all their food - scrumptious!

Viva is simply great. An authentic trattoria serving superbly cooked pasta, proper pizzas all simply yet effectively done. Very good value and a genuine Italian feel to it from the decor to the friendly staff.

I have enjoyed eating at Viva on several occasions however, I was disappointed with the way we were treated when we turned up on a Wednesday night to find that the restaurant was full and no table was available for our party despite being booked in advance.

I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who likes good Italian cooking I would say the best Italian Restaurant in Leeds and so authentic, and you are made so welcome.

Alan

A great little find, friendly and welcoming. Pleasant atmosphere, attentive service, excellent food, broad selection of very nice wines. I heartily recommend to anyone wishing a very enjoyable, casual relaxed dining experience.

Possibly some of the best and most authentic Italian food I have ever enjoyed, and I have been travelling to Italy for the last 20 years for business and pleasure. Vitto the owner, is the kind of hands on restaurant owner that all restaurant owners should aspire to. Genuine friendliness, very knowledgeable, and with an eye for detail. The interior is simple and understated, welcoming and homely. I hugely recommend this place, the sort of restaurant you like to keep as a well guarded secret so that you never struggle to get a table there. Go Go Go ....its terrific!

I absolutely love this place! It is my favourite restaurant for casual dinners or just a really good feed! The food is delicious and beautifully presented, and very authentic. I can't think of anywhere else in Leeds who have White Pizza's. Even my partner, who imports some of the finest foods in the world, has a little soft spot for this place. It isn't the most modern looking place or the largest, but it is comfortable and warm. It does look exactly like many little restaurants that you'd find in Italy, and reminds me of one i found in Milan once! The prices are extremely reasonable and portion size good. The staff are very funny, and have a habit of speaking in Italian to you if you look remotely dark haired! They really take care of you - they will not allow a lady to put a coat on themselves, they're quick and attentive but not overly so, and once i went with a friend who didn't order a starter but they still brought her a small bruschetta free of charge anyway! This place beats many over rated establishments in Leeds, in many ways.
