The guy was passionate about this pizza and he sucked me in to give it a try. Called in an order for a large pepperoni pizza. 20 minutes until pickup. Stopped in to pickup and the first thing I see is a note that says "I am having a miserable day / life. But I appreciate your business. lol! . I am like, WTF?! Dude comes out with my pizza and rings me up. Had to be the guy who wrote the note. Totally miserable SOB and unfriendly. Just had to laugh because he reminded me of the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld. Looks just like him and equally friendly. Took the pizza back to our house. Pizza is fantastic. Exactly what the dude at the liquor store said. Highly recommend the pizza but probably would not eat in as it is very depressing and unfriendly. NO PIZZA FOR YOU!

I went in there chatty and friendly and excited to have some pizza in the Berks and he was very gruff and impatient with me. I was scared to ask a question! I want him to succeed and he does, apparently because the pizza was tasty! But I really don't feel comfortable going back as I was extremely uncomfortable and prefer someone more gracious and friendly. If he reads this, I don't want him to get mad. I want him to really think about what I'm saying here. Go if you want good pizza. But just go in, get what you need and leave! Dont make small talk.

This was our second time ordering takeout from Vivaldi's and it was even better than the first…read moretime. We've ordered their Mexican, Plain and Pepperoni pizzas. The Mexican was better than I remembered from last year. Vivaldi's is not far from Four Brothers. For me, it is a better pizza. Four Brothers tastes like what it is -- pizza you'd get someplace outside of a metro area. I don't even think pizza is what Four Brothers does best. Vivaldi's feels like they're trying to bring a decent pizza to the Berkshires and they're in a good position to do so despite the influx of competition. On their Mexican pizza, I'm not a huge fan of the black olives. They just have too strong a taste for me. Once you bite into one that is almost all you can taste. The pie would benefit from a bit of pico de Gallo to give it more of a Mexican flavor.On the plus side, they don't load it with so much stuff that the slices become impossible to pick up. Parking in this area is hit & miss since they share a gravel lot with several other businesses. Depending on when you go it can be adventurous. The place isn't exactly visible when you're driving on Route 7 so keep in mind that if you're already past the Price Chopper lot you might have missed this place. Vivaldi's gets a four from me based on their location in Great Barrington. Be thankful there isn't a Papa John's or Domino's up here.

My friend and I found Vivaldi's Pizzeria while we stayed at Holiday Inn Express at 415 Stockbridge…read moreRoad, Great Barrington, Mass. There are several restaurants next to Holiday Inn along Stockbridge Road. Vivaldi's lies behind, not visible from Stockbridge Road. The main business of this small restaurant is for take-out, although it has two small tables for dine-in. We ordered 6" tossed salad with house dressing and 12" Hawaiin pizza with ham. The total price came to be $30.10 (including tax). The quality of the food was very good. The vegetables for the salad were fresh and crisp. The pizza crust was thin. The pineapple melted into tomato sauce and cheese, not sliced or diced and spread on top. The pizza was very tasty but not greasy. The prices on the menu had not been updated. The prices charged, although still reasonable compared with other restaurants, were higher than those on the menu. The receipt showed only the total price; it did not list itemized orders. We gave this restaurant a 4-1/2, instead of 5, star rating because of these two minor issues with its menu and receipt.

We were really looking forward to dining here and had saved this restaurant as the culmination of…read moreour trip to the Berkshires. Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. We arrived for our reservation and were offered a very small two-top. Because we were dining with our dog, we politely asked if it would be possible to wait for a larger table where she would not be in the way of other guests or staff. We were not demanding a different table -- we were told it would take approximately 30 minutes for another table in a different section to become available, and we happily said we were willing to wait. We sat quietly outside with our dog while waiting. The owner then approached us and told us that waiting for another table would interfere with future seating. We were surprised by this, as we had simply accepted the wait time that was provided to us and had not caused any disruption. The interaction escalated when the owner used profanity toward my husband and threw the water bowl that had been provided for our dog in our direction. We were shocked by the hostility and left without eating. We completely understand that restaurants have to manage reservations and seating, and we would have accepted being told that our request could not be accommodated. What was unacceptable was the way we were spoken to and treated by the owner. We came here excited to spend our money at this restaurant as part of our trip, but we are grateful that Great Barrington has many other excellent establishments where we were welcomed and happy to spend our money instead. Unfortunately, this experience was the opposite of the hospitality we expected.

This place used to be great and it was always our first stop in GB but…read more it has fallen off a cliff. I told the owner Mark how awful the service was and he was completely indifferent. Couldn't bring himself to apologize. Here's what you endure: 1. Waitress brings a carafe of water but no glasses. You have to ask twice. Later when soup is dropped off you have to wait for the server to return so you can ask for a spoon. 2. Lots of specials are no longer available. Then why are they still on the board? Your waitress lists what they're out of so you decide to have the sandwich. "We're out of that too." OKAAAY 3. You want a salad without nuts and you indicated that when you made the reservation and the menu says clearly "Please notify your server if you have any allergies." Your waitress says it's not possible to make accommodations. You have to ask three times before she puts in the order. 4. You've been enjoying cocktails--which are great--but it's been an hour and food still hasn't arrived (it's 8:45 and restaurant is mostly empty). Your busser shows up to see if we're done and need any more plates taken away. No, you politely say, you need your entrees. 5. You wonder aloud for the third time if your server has left for the night. 6. You're not offered dessert or anything else. You can't wait to leave a place you used to love. You won't go back.

The service is consistent, friendly, and accommodating. They have a driving range, pool tables, a juke box, and KENO! Food is good. The more standard your pub-fare order is, the happier you'll be.

It's expensive relative to their menu, but it brings me joy and makes me think I'm 15 again, when a salad bar was more standard and available for a special treat. Good local bar scene. Live music and events on weekends (although I've never partaken). Its location probably allows it to score higher than it would if there was any actual competition within 25 minutes. If you're in the area or live locally, go! Don't drive out of your way unless you're coming in for the entertainment.
