Vivaldi, a Pierrefonds staple, combines Italian comfort classics with a BYOW policy that makes it a go-to for group dinners and celebrations. The brothers behind the operation, Dave and Steve, pride themselves on constant innovation, which shines through in a menu that balances crowd-pleasers like veal Marsala and shrimp aglio e olio with creative touches like mussels à la Dijonnaise.

Ideal for everything from family birthdays to date nights, the atmosphere is as warm as the freshly baked rolls that start each meal. Service stands out, with staff skilled at managing large parties and ensuring everyone feels cared for. The pizzas are local favourites, but dishes like the penne Romanoff and Italian sausage sub are equally well-loved.
