    Rating: 2/5 Unfortunately, my experience at Vivari Hotel & Dine was very disappointing, especially as this was meant to be a special date night for us after a very long time. I made a reservation through Dineplan on Wednesday 26th for two people downstairs. On Thursday, I called and asked a gentleman to move the reservation upstairs. He took my name and confirmed that it was done. On Saturday, about an hour before arriving, I called to advise that we would be 30 minutes late. The lady I spoke to could not find either reservation, which I found very strange. She eventually said she could assist. When we arrived, I was surprised to see many tables available, yet we were given a dirty table with missing cutlery. The service was extremely poor. Our waiter could not even provide basic items such as cutlery or cold milk for coffee. We eventually had to take cutlery from another table ourselves. After our meal, we went downstairs to the bar to enjoy the live band. We ordered the pecan doughnut, which looked good, but unfortunately had little to no pecan and the doughnut itself was stale. For the prices being charged, I expected a much higher standard of food, service and overall experience. Sadly, the quality did not match the price at all, and I left feeling that I had been robbed of value for my money. What made this worse was that I did not complain at the time because I didn’t want to spoil the evening or make my partner uncomfortable. This was a date night we had been looking forward to. I am sharing this feedback in the hope that management takes it seriously. The service, food quality and attention to detail need significant improvement. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I would not recommend Vivari Hotel & Dine.
