"I came with my family here last night and we totally liked this restaurant! It looks very classy and the atmosphere is really nice.
The service was tiptop too!

And the food:-
Salad is nice, not too much and too less dressing and the dressing is tasty.
I ordered pulpo and my partner ordered lamb and it was (chef kiss)
Dessert is ok, good portion and not too sweet! Which I love.

So overall I would recommend this place to others who’s visiting zermatt! 🤗

Thank you!"

"Food was good but not amazing. Small salad was fancy in its presentation but unremarkable in its ingredients and flavor. Pesto pasta was a bit bland but large serving. Service was great and interesting building."

Amy

"Had a wonderful meal today at Vivanda. This place had super authentic Italian cuisine which tasted incredible. We had the pesto pasta and ravioli dishes which were outstanding. We might have dinner here another night while in Zermatt.

Update: ate there a second night. Still amazing."
