    My husband and I enjoyed a lovely lunch at Vivace. I have a couple of dietary restrictions and our waiter was so very helpful and understanding with making adjustments to my choices. Since I cannot tolerate canola oil, he made a salad dressing of olive oil and balsamic vinegar which was wonderful. He also assured me there was no canola oil in the entree I ordered and adjusted the ingredients as I requested. He made certain our meals met our expectations. We enjoyed the bread pudding which he kindly split for us. Thanks for a lovely birthday lunch!

    Took a friend for lunch. His first time at MAB. He couldn't say enough how well prepared his meal was and how good the staff was. Excellent value in these inflationary times. He's now another loyal MAB customer. Steve M.

    Food was not as good as it used to be. I asked for extra greens, and it looked way to sparse. The Calamari plate had more "other" things on it and less calamari. Service was great, ambience good, noise level reasonable. Not as happy about the place as i used to be.

    All the food items here are delicious. Some of the best pizza in town. The interior is small and cute. They take reservations, so just plan ahead and you will have no issues getting a table. A solid 10 in our favorite restaurants rotation.
