" I love the feel of this café! You can tell a lot of love goes into the baking and cooking. The carbonara was creamy and nicely seasoned, but I did find the dish a bit over-salted. Their homemade pastries are to die for, and this is definitely a place I would recommend for anyone looking for authentic Italian treats in a cute setting. " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a lovely brunch spot! The Classico was incredible—sourdough toast, poached eggs, and whipped ricotta! Perfectly executed. The atmosphere was warm, and I enjoyed relaxing on the patio with a friend. Only downside was the limited seating, but it adds to the coziness, I guess. I strongly recommend giving it a try if you want quality Italian fare with a lovely feel. " (*Curated Review*)

" Stumbling upon this place was the highlight of my trip! The fresh pasta was remarkable and very authentic. The staff were approachable, allowing for a smooth dining experience. I highly recommend checking this spot out if you want quality Italian without the pretense. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family has been eating at LIVIA for years, and it never disappoints! The quality of the foods is always consistent, especially their pastries! We recently tried the special brunch menu, and it was excellent! The flavors felt right out of Italy, making it a perfect family gathering spot. I look forward to visiting again and trying more of their seasonal items! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time at LIVIA and I must say, I was impressed! The breakfast was excellent, especially the lovely, warm pastries. It felt like I was in a bustling Italian café, and the staff were super attentive despite the busy environment. I tried the pear-almond danish and it was divine! I wish I lived closer so I could make this a regular spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at LIVIA is lovely, with a historic feel to it! I found sitting at the communal tables delightful, however, the food didn’t quite match the ambiance. My pasta was nice, but I would say that it was a bit bland compared to what I was expecting. The service was attentive, though! Worth checking out for the pastries alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" A true hidden gem! I stumbled upon LIVIA Forno e Vino while wandering Commercial Drive, and I'm so glad I did. Everything we had was delightful, especially the pastries! The lemon danish was light and fluffy. The indoor space is cozy, and they serve everything with a personal touch. Highly recommend for anyone in the area. I could see myself coming back weekly!
