VIVO Italian Kitchen

The servers seemed knowledgeable. I called ahead and spoke to someone too. They basically can put GF penne pasta on any entree but that’s about it. I didn’t feel super confident but I am hopeful we weren’t glutened. So many people in California do GF for a lifestyle choice that very few restaurants take cross contamination seriously or even understand what it is. But here the knowledge seemed good (separate water, allergy ticket makers for back kitchen, separate utensils, etc).

They were very accommodating to our large party (11 total). We requested outdoor seating because we had 5 boys aged 7-11 and didn’t want to kill anyone’s romantic date night inside. It was chilly, but they had heaters. It took about 10 minutes for them to set up our 2 separate, but nearby tables. Service was friendly & paced well. Cocktails & food was delicious! We came to the park during spring break & to celebrate my son’s bday. They brought him out a dessert & sang. I’m pretty sure I got the bolognese with gluten free noodles. 👍🏻👍🏻 This was our best meal while we were in town.
