Fantastic, the best meal and ambiance and service we have had thus far in France. This restaurant…read moreis owned by an adorable family, the husband/wife couple served us tonight themselves and with smiles and clearly genuine about their food. Initially there was no seat available and they offered one in 30min so we came back and SO glad we did! Full of friendly and happy locals so you know it's delicious. I had one of their home made bolognese pastas and my husband the pizza, both perfect. Excellent price and portions. We are coming back tomorrow, our last day!

I wish I could say that we had a great meal but we never got that far. We ordered drinks and were…read morehoping to order 3 pizzas for our family of 4. No said the proprietress. What was shocking was the snarkiness and rudeness of her reply. Explaining we should have know that before we sat down but really there were no signs. So we paid our bill and left. As did the table of two right beside us for the very same reason. I do understand it's the rule of restaurant and that is not my issue. It's the absolute rudeness and dismissiveness of the proprietress that earned the 2 stars.

Great concept perfectly implemented. We were looking for a casual meal tonight. We found Vivotto…read more Delicious food prepared in a jar. Heated at request. I enjoyed a salad with all the ingredients in a jar: shake before you open the cap and eat. Also enjoyed a Risotto: heated perfectly at the counter The Chia seed dessert was excellent. We also enjoyed a bottle of wine reasonably priced at Euro 13 and complimentary water: Fizzy or natural. Nice outdoor space to enjoy their offerings. Service was fast, friendly and efficient. Great option if your looking for a casual meal in Avignon.

Vivotto is a five-star cafe for so many reasons…read more Great, innovative concept. The owner prepares meals daily and packages them in short mason jars with those easy-to-open latches so you can mix and match what you want to eat. You can eat in or take away your meal. They make all of their meals from scratch including making their own pasta. They make all of their fruit juices and most of their pastries. They do sell beet and wine and little sweet treats that aren't their own but these fill in to complete their menu. The space is super clean, bright and happy, very welcoming. They are open long hours every day of the week without the typical afternoon gap many restaurants have. They have enough people working for them that they don't need to take all or part of August off because of burnout after Festival d'Avignon, an annual live theater festival, held throughout July. Because they do pitch this as an Italian cafe they do offer a lot of high carb meals, your basic pastas. I wish they had more things like salads but I won't fault them for not because they are an Italian restaurant and they have done everything to perfection. Kudos to you, Vivotto.

So we made up our minds that we would "get what we get and not throw a fit." When we ordered we told the owner what we would like on our piadinas. He made one to our specifications, but then also made us one with the ingredients that he recommended. His was far superior, so if you go, just let him choose what you're getting! He and his wife really knew their stuff. The ingredients were fresh and delicious and the wine was fabulous. The whole experience was just... fun!! The restaurant was small and cozy, and the owner was so gracious and patient with us given that we didn't speak his language. I highly recommend this restaurant and we will definitely go back if we are ever in that area again.
