Il Vivaldi - Mediterranean Cuisine

A lovely meal in a very pleasant atmosphere

All I can say is WOW food and service was excellent and as for the surroundings the building itself has character like an old colonial style restaurant very interesting and clean great experience

Our last night in Funchal, on this holiday at least, so we went back to our favourite restaurant again (third time this week!). If that isn't a strong enough recommendation to try this restaurant, I don't know what is. This is the best kept secret in Funchal as far as we are concerned. Fabulous food in a delightful environment with wonderful staff. Thank you again Carlos, Rui, Maria, Soraya and Miguel and also to the chef and all the hard working boys and girls in the kitchen. We shall be back again just as soon as we can..

All good... will be there again

Lovely meal with a fine bottle of local white wine. Music was at times a little loud and not quite in keeping with the ambience but a minor issue. We would happily return for more.

The service was faultless, and the staff friendly the food was to a very high standard and the setting pleasant. If you are coming to Madeira I recommend that you try this restaurant and the special menu at 37 Euro ( includes wine pairing) , you won’t be disappointed

Bom ambiente e bom prato...

Another wonderful meal at this amazing restaurant. We can't believe our luck in first discovering this place 18 months ago during our first visit to Funchal. It is firmly on our "must go there again" list when we return to Madeira. The food is superb, the service superlative and the ambience cosy and comforting....Need I say more.

They were a little slower serving the wine than some of the other restaurants that offer an all inclusive menu and my starter wasn’t to my taste which was the scallops with cuscouse and beetroot little bland needed something to lift it but the Octopus and Shrimp curry was the best dish I’ve had on Madeira ever the curry sauce creamy and spicy but didn’t over power the octopus. We had a very pleasant eveing I would recommend this restaurant

Excellent food, surroundings & service as usual. Tuna fresh in & on the lunch board was delicious.

The food and service were excellent. We had the shrimp risotto and the grilled octopus...they were outstanding. Thanks to the offer on the folk the food bill was reduced by 50% which made it an extremely affordable meal. Would highly recommend this restaurant for seafood. Would have been 5 stars for everything if it wasn’t so warm inside the restaurant. Could do with some a/c or fans.

Another fabulous meal at this restaurant and Carlos and his team welcomed us back like long last family members after an absence of 18 months. The fact that they could remember us was astonishing. Wonderful service and we have already booked to go back again this week. We wouldn't go anywhere else! Susan and Richard Colquhoun

Excellent food! Pedro and Soraya provided fantastic service!!!!

A delightful evening, from the warm greeting, and personal attention of owner/manager..wonderful food chosen from an imaginative menu...served along with quality wines, and all at an extremely reasonable price. All served in an elegant series of handsome rooms, overlooking the marina. A high quality restaurant.

OMG the best meal we have had in Madeira! Quality of food and wine was outstanding, the staff are so attentive and friendly this really is a must visit and all for 37 euros including wine !!! Outstanding we will definitely visit again ????

Good food for good prices, friendly service.

IlVivaldi never disappoints. We sail to Funchal when we can primarily to come to this restaurant. Every time we come to Madeira IlVivaldi is a must for us. The food and service is Michelin star level to us. Consistently excellent.

Have been to this restaurant several times and tried a number of different dishes, every plate excellent. They are usually very busy and service can dip a little at times as a result but we very much enjoy our visits and will return again before the end of our holiday.

A lovely setting in the old Casa Turistica building. We both had food off the a la carte menu - lamb rack and lamb shank which were both cooked perfectly. My wife thinks the passion fruit souffle is one of the best desserts she has ever eaten. Staff were attentive and the restaurant was very popular with locals which says it all. Food and ambience makes it a lovely night out

Great food for the ‘set menu’ and very attentive staff. Wine to accompany was better than many similar offers in other restaurants. We will definitely return.
