Vivante Restaurant & Bar

The most delicious and beautiful dishes! We celebrated my daughter's birthday, and we felt like we were very important people Then we got the big surprise. The compliment birthday cake from the restaurant! Highly recommend to come and get that experience!

Great food, but the service left a bit to be desired. Staff moved kind of slow and wasn't terribly attentive.

Just ok. Went on a Thursday night to celebrate our anniversary. Ambience was dark & lackluster. Got our drinks pretty quickly & they were delicious. Ordered the French onion soup & soup de jour for apps, also came in a timely fashion and were tasty. However, it took 20-30 minutes at least to get our entrees even though there were only 3-4 parties in the whole restaurant, including us. Server never acknowledged the long wait or apologized. Finally got our entrees, the pork loin & short ribs and both were pretty good but just kinda meh. No celebratory dessert offered, which we’ve always had at other restaurants we’ve dined at. Came here because I thought they offered French cuisine, but the menu definitely wasn’t French. Overall, disappointing & not worth the $. Won’t be back.

My wife & I usually use Devour Indy to check out new restaurants & see if they're worth going back to later on. This evening we tried Vivante, a French eatery, & it was pretty good. The portions weren't the biggest, but that's to be expected.. it was still quite tasty & the service was excellent. We saw a few other things on the menu that we were curious about so I'm pretty sure that we'll be back.. Parking: The restaurant is inside the hotel & there was a big free parking lot for the hotel.

Beautiful restaurant with delicious food! My husband and me went here for a couples getaway complete with a stay at Hotel Carmichael. The restaurant was so beautiful, the service was top notch and the food divine! Will be returning ❤️❤️

Fig appetizer was delicious. Ordered cocktails, would def recommend Ella & Louis. The Martini Madness left a lot to be desired- oily texture and spicy odd taste. The Stuffed Quail was our favorite. I got the Halibut, not very seasoned and the Brussel sprouts were not pleasant in texture. This is a great atmosphere for a romantic date. Service was ok. A nice place to dress up and go out on the town locally. We would go back.

My sister and I had an awesome birthday dinner for her last week at Vivante. The service, the food, and the birthday cake were all 5 star. And a special shout out to Megan the Gen. Mgr. who was SO nice and pays such great attention to detail! Highly recommend!

The service team were so nice and accommodating and the whole experience was nice. The reason for 4 stars is that food wasn’t 5stars. I got the short rib grilled cheese. It was just ok, not juicy or flavorful. Same with my partner breakfast burger, not flavorful, just ok.

Edit: I appreciate that the restaurant took on our previous comments and there are more vegetarian options now. The Pumpkin Ravioli is very good. The Pesto Pasta needed to be cooked more. This is a good restaurant. The piano being played in the hotel lobby can be heard downstairs as well adding to the ambience. We loved our Ratatouille. It was piping hot and delicious. Overall a good place for a date night. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available Parking: Difficult to find parking if you are not staying at the hotel.
