Nice little restaurant. Great service from the manager. Plenty of specials on the menu and every person at our table really enjoyed the food. My steak was cooked to perfection. The Barbera wine was delightful. Great little

Excellent meal, thank you. The fillet steak Rossini was perfect.?

Best Italian I’ve been to in a while. The food was incredible and the service was great too. We had a bruschetta and duck pate for starters and a lasagna and pasta with a crab sauce for the main dishes. They were all delicious, the tomato sauce was particularly incredible, I’m still thinking about it.

I thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience at Viva in Leeds. Among various Italian restaurants I've visited, this one stands out as the best, particularly in terms of the food quality. For starters, I had the delicious fresh homemade soup, followed by the exquisite Lasagna Pasticciata al Forno as my main course, and concluded with a heavenly homemade tiramisu for dessert. I highly recommend giving Viva a try anytime you're in Leeds. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!I’m hoping you meet Gani anytime you visit. He’s such a lovely person.

Had the most amazing meal last night to celebrate an aunts birthday, the food was spectacular, the atmosphere nice and quiet and the staff brilliant. We all had the 3 course meal, I had the garlic mushrooms (god do I stink this morning) they were the nicest garlic mushrooms I’ve ever had, then the pollo Milanese which was equally as good (can’t compare it as I’ve never had it before) then for dessert the crepe brûlée, whoever made that needs a trophy because that was perfection in a ramekin!We also had a bottle of wine to share between three. The host/waiter was very professional, friendly and talkative and after we’d finished also got us a shot of limoncello on the house - very kind! Definetly be back again.

Wow. Simply wow. I found this place close to the hotel on a business trip after spending the evening with colleagues eating at the hotel, followed by the local Sainsbury’s for snacks because the food was inedible. all the others, early night. Me… I’m hungry. I go for a walk and I find this place a half hour before closing, but what a find, food is exceptional.Little restaurant, which looks from the outside to seat 10 people actually larger than expected and seats 30 confutably which is deceiving.The food was amazing. I will be bragging to my colleagues that they should listen to me in future, like I know what I am talking about. Great service happy to have a customer on his own for one table. I had a garlic bread with cheese and tomato, which was great, this was a full pizza size cut into 8 pieces. Followed by fillet steak, which comes with mixed veg, but I wanted a rocket and Parmesan side salad. All 5 star. I will definitely be back. Pair it with a pint of birra moretti ( I couldn’t finish because I was too full) and you won’t go wrong. Ok I can see they want to close up now so I am gong to head of off…..perhaps after another bit of this garlic bread……side note upon leaving they offered me a free lemon chello shot for the road. What a nice bunch. Totally made my evening…. Thank you so much
I took my girlfriend here for dinner and it was a great experience all round! We both had a three course meal and shared a bottle of wine. The total cost came to about £85 which I think is really good value for the amount we got, considering the quality of the food and the generous portion sizes. We had tiramisu for dessert which is the best I've had! The waiters were extremely friendly and their service was excellent. We did not have to wait long for our food despite the restaurant being busy and the restaurant had a nice atmosphere. If you want good Italian food, avoid the soulless high street chains and come here!

Very good pizza. Do it

Amazing food and service! I normally want to try something different on the menu, if I go to an Italian restaurant, but everyone in our party ordered pasta and it was absolutely phenomenal. We will definitely be returning!

Friendly greeting. Food delicious and service excellent. Chef came to ask if we were happy with our food. Great for a meet up as just off the main shopping area.
