VIVO RESTAURANT | Ristorante e Pizzeria

In the heart of Tuscany, VIVO RESTAURANT Pieve a Nievole reimagines regional staples with a contemporary technical edge and a focus on seasonal purity. The signature 'Scrocchina' is a revelation of dough craft, undergoing a forty-eight-hour natural fermentation to produce a focaccia that is exceptionally light and shatters with a resonant, airy crunch. Aromas of wood-smoke and cold-pressed olive oil emanate from the traditional oven, where pizzas are fired to blistered perfection. The kitchen excels in seafood, notably the monkfish, which is precisely seared to maintain a succulent, meaty texture and paired with a vibrant, herb-infused emulsion. Flavor balance is achieved through the juxtaposition of rich, creamy burrata against the sharp, acidic notes of sun-ripened tomatoes. Whether executing a silken carbonara or a delicate fish risotto, the chefs maintain a rigorous standard of ingredient quality, ensuring that every dish reflects the soul of Pistoia.
