I had an wonderful dinner tonight. They have a dedicated gluten-free menu that is offered upon arrival. The staff are extremely knowledgeable about celiac disease. GF dishes are even served on different colored plates to ensure safety. The pasta and garlic bread I ate were excellent. I have not tried their pizzas, although the reviews seem very positive. The atmosphere is extremely pleasant. I can't wait to go back and try their crème brûlée!! The chef even came to our table during the meal to make sure everything was to our liking. A very nice touch!

My experience at VIV was OK! It was not bad but it also didn't blow me away either. There was no one single thing that was a problem, but more a number of small things that contributed to making the experience what it was for me. For example, upon arrival, the restaurant was pretty cold - eventually the heating seemed to kick in and it became more comfortable but it was quite chilly for the first half of the evening. The space is quite cute and funky in its decor but the table lights are a cold white light, which gave a strange and cold feel to the space. The writing in the menu was super tiny and difficult to read (saying this as someone who doesn't have vision problems). Service was inexperienced and awkward at times but friendly. The food was enjoyable (the gnocchis were tasty and the sauce next to the duck confit was delicious). It's great to have this gluten-free option in the city and it has so many things going for it - I think little changes would go a long way to making this a 4-5 star experience.

The pizza is incredible, the owner is an absolute gentleman and TRUE Italian in every sense of the word. The pizza margarita is sublime, simple, delicious and full of authentic flavours, feels and renoncent reminders of visiting Italy and it’s true approach to pizza prepared. As a gluten sensitive individual - giving up pizza for the last few years has been devastating. The gluten free margarita here? Is truly chefs kiss! The front of house team (servers) are warm, patient and approachable. This building (previously occupied by the late wonderful Bob and the beloved team at stoneface) has clearly inherited another gem - in Del Piacere. Love this place! A must try and repeat - repeatedly ❤️

My first time at this restaurant I have been driving by for so many years I decided to go in today and try some butter chicken, I also ordered matar paneer and some garlic Naan. I have been to at least 5 Indian restaurants in ottawa, every restaurant has a slightly different flavor on there food Each one has a different take on there Naan bread, but all were very good, so was the butter chicken The butter chicken at Indian express was excellent I noticed that the chicken was very tender. all the other restaurants I have been to the chicken was dry. The Naan bread was very good, nice and fresh loved it, no complaints here. The matar paneer was also fresh and flavourful, the rice was also fresh. Indian express also makes fresh deserts on site I tried a square with Mango and coconut WOW WHAT FLAVOR, They also had a gluten free chickpea flour ball with Cashews WOW the flavours just keep on coming Had to get an assortment of desserts oh so good After one bite you will know what I mean. Well I have no complaints on the food at Indian Express, service was good, very happy will be back.
