    a plate of cookies wrapped in plastic wrap

    Was looking for a convenient and fun way to get some treats to my niece for making a sports team. Was pleased to come across this dessert delivery business close to where she lives. Had an exceptional experience from start to finish. Placed the order online using the form on the website Monday afternoon, clarified the details via email shortly thereafter (she can even deliver to the mailroom at Phillips Academy!), received an invoice to pay online early Tuesday morning and my niece had her brownies and cookies Wednesday morning. She even asked what to put in the card. Thank you Michele for the flawless execution!! I would highly recommend this service and would not hesitate to patronize this business again.

    Wedding favors boxed up and ready to go! Each individually packaged in cellophane bags with gold shimmer ribbon! Fantastic

    See all

    I have called twice and haven't got a call back! Wanted to get some cookies for an event. Guess I will have to try somewhere else.

    Is Michelle closed? Not answering any of my emails or calls...

    I got an email from them today (12/28/20) telling me she closed over 2 years ago. Odd that the website is still live and the answering machine is still on, but for sure, they are OUT OF BUSINESS

    Totally agree with some other reviews...Most restaurants in the area that claim to be top notch…read moreItalian end up being a disappointment. I like dishes that are new and unique, carry the same passion I have for cooking and include the ingredients that I enjoy. I have seen quite a few reviews for Vivacino in No. Andover, all were good. The prices are a little elevated from your norm but the food preparation, quality, service and all-around food experience explain that. I would rather go out less often and enjoy a great experience, than go out more often and eat subpar food. Firstly, of all nights we picked New Years Eve to go with no reservation! But we thought we'd give it a shot. We were greeted by I'm assuming Richard the Owner General Manager and a lovely young lady who let us know what we already knew, they were packed with reservations. Richard did inform us that the bar had two available seats at the end and my husband said we'll take it. I was shocked because he never sits at the bar. But it was an end seat for him and he must have really wanted to try this restaurant. We sat down and were greeting by bar waitress Toast B who gave us menus. She was super friendly and pleasant. She let us know the specials of the evening. After looking at the menu, I asked her if I was crazy, I thought I saw Chicken Piccata and Veal Parmesan on their online menu. She said they did have it, those were on their other menu of items carried over from Buono. My husbands not too adventurous, he just wants his Veal Parm or Chicken Parm and is very critical of it, since that's all he gets. We ordered drinks and a basket of freshly baked bread and oil was brought over. Delicious. We didn't order appetizers, just went ahead ordering our entrees. I figured it would be quite a while, with the restaurant being so full. But shockingly, our meals came out really quick. My husband couldn't believe how huge his veal was! And he said it was super tender. I tasted his sauce and it was over the top delicious, and I never order red sauce. He got Penne with his entrée. I had asked for Chicken Piccata, which comes with roasted veg, but asked that the veg come on a separate plate. Good thing I did as I got a HUGE plate of roasted veg, which hubby would have never helped me eat if the Piccata sauce was all over it. The veggies were perfectly roasted, and the potatoes in it were perfectly charred and cooked. Carrots, zucchini, summer squash and potatoes in a slight bit of seasoned olive oil. The service was here was perfect. No screw ups here as with some other restaurants, the dishes came exactly as we asked. The chicken was very tender, and the sauce was exactly what a Piccata sauce should be. Deliciously lemony and buttery. Disappointingly, we were too full for dessert, but will def try the dessert next time there. The pistachio cake looks delicious! I am already planning my next adventure. I was thinking of asking if they could do the Saltimbocca with Chicken. The grapes in it, reminded me of the sausage dish I make from Anna Rossi with fennel and grapes. The sirloin looks phenomenal, as does the Chicken Broccoli and Penne, and the Caramelle. Next time for sure. The grilled Shrimp in Amaretto sauce (I'm assuming was a special?) looks out of this world also, as does the grilled sausage appetizer. I have to say the entire experience was enjoyable. Food, service, ambiance, all of it. Especially on a busy holiday night. If you haven't tried Vivacino and enjoy really unique and good food, TRY IT. And when I say unique, I don't mean strange ingredients you will never eat. They take everyday ingredients to a whole new level, one that is worth every penny you pay.

    Ironically, I have been very hesitant about visiting Italian places since moving to Boston. Despite…read morehaving quite a vibrant Italian food scene, especially towards the North End, most of my visits to Italian establishments have proven to be a disappointment. One would feel like Nona's tired or Nona doesn't want to feed you or Nona doesn't want to have anything to do with you. Obviously, that's not what ANY good Nonas ever do since they want you to have the very best. So one may ask what's truly going on? Is it the same issue with other cuisines where the food quality is not properly preserved or because there is no standard to uphold anymore? It reminds me of someone who once said to me that those who care deeply about any cuisine have moved on to NYC and other food-centric areas. All that's left are those who send out food to customers who either don't know or don't care. Perhaps, there is some thinly veiled truth to this statement. I've been acquainted with Chef Nimesh for a few years and know his deep passion for Italian food. In prior locations where he was based, there were always limitations to how much he was allowed to express his art and understanding of the cuisine. So while he was throttled over there, here in Andover after taking over a dying business, I'm able to witness just how good his expression of Italian food is. Every dish I ordered tonight were things I knew he was particularly passionate about. Yes, the whole menu is well designed...but I'm talking about things I knew he would choose to serve in particular until the world ends. Signature dishes on his take of Italian cuisine. I loved every bite. I truly savored and enjoyed it. So much so that I'm willing to just make the drive up to Andover just for a meal any given day. Mind you, the place is well designed, clean, and upscale. You can thank his business partner, FOH extraordinaire for bringing that side to life. The staff working here are great and the wine selection is immaculate. You will definitely enjoy your visit here. Absolutely recommend this spot for anyone wanting a great and non-pretentious Italian food experience!

    Legendary? Yes, if you're local, I'd agree with that assessment. this is definitely good quality…read moreice cream, rich and dense and strongly flavored. They have a great mix of classic and specialty flavors. Prices are above average, but I would still consider it competitively reasonable. They do note in several places that their fresh raspberry ice cream is slightly more expensive. Butter Pecan is one of my go-to flavors, so I had to try it. But I'm also pretty fussy about it. There's 2 types of butter pecan. One is the more yellow/buttery flavor, and the other is more beige-colored with more of a butterscotchy flavor. Theirs seems to be more of the latter - still delicious, but not my personal favorite style of that flavor. But any quirky opinions on the butter pecan were blown away with the Black Forest ice cream. Oh my, that was delicious, with the dark sweet cherries and all those chocolate chunks. But beware if you have dental work, the cold chocolate chunks will be rock hard. If you have any concerns, let them melt a little bit, in the cup/cone or in your mouth, before biting into them. A lot of my local friends frequently mention why they enjoy coming here. I can see why.

    An all time local classic. This spot has been legendary for as long as I've been alive (which is a…read moreterrifying span of time) The ice cream is smooth and delicious--plus they have seasonal flavors they make with fresh grown ingredients they can only harvest at certain times of the year. An absolute classic spot.
