About Viva Restaurant Italian

Viva Restaurant Italian is an Italian restaurant at 9 Church St in Crook. The chicken Kiev appears on the menu twice, as a main and as a chicken Kiev pizza, so diners can choose the same dish in either format. Starters include potato skins served with garlic sauce, and the mains run to alfredo and pollo a la crema alongside pizzas and calzone. A two-course early bird deal is also offered. The bar pours beers on tap, with wines and gin as alternatives. The kitchen serves home-cut chips.

Customer Review Summary

Steak is the dish reviewers raise most. One calls a takeaway fillet perfectly cooked and piping hot on collection, another had it rare and tasty, and a third paired it with king prawns. Close behind are the pizzas, including a chicken Kiev pizza and a goat cheese pizza, along with a huge chicken Kiev served with homecut chips. Potato skins with garlic sauce and garlic mushrooms are praised for large portions, the Alfredo is called filling, and one reviewer stuck with the calzone across two visits. Several point to the two courses and early bird deals as good value, and staff are repeatedly described as friendly and lovely, with food arriving fast and hot. The one complaint concerns drinks. A reviewer notes the beer is limited to Carling, John Smiths and Peroni, so craft ale fans will struggle, though wines and gin are plentiful. One family celebrating a son's birthday had staff bring out the cake, play Happy Birthday and join in the singing.

    “Honestly I've been here so many times and it's just top drawer every single time we eat here. I thought I would leave a rating here because why not. They certainly deserve it. Mom and Dad randomly decided to get takeaway fillet steak which is pretty extravagant for a takeaway I know, but my god it was special. Perfectly cooked and piping hot on collection. Everything was spot on, it always is, it's why we keep coming back for special occasions. The restaurant is lush too and the people in there are lovely. Pollo a la crema with chips will change your life. Will eat here until I'm senile. 10/10”

    “Had a lovely family meal out here. Staff were attentive and friendly. A coupe of us had the potato skins starter. It is lovely, good sized portion. The garlic sauce with them is great. I had the chicken Kiev pizza myself and it was very good. Plenty flavour and it’s a decent sized pizza. They have quite a few drinks options if needed too.”

    “Took our son for his 20th. Varied menu with good selection. Food was absolutely delicious, nice and hot, served quickly and really good prices. The staff were lovely and friendly. Very large starter and good size main courses. Highly recommend the steak, we had it rare. It was very tasty and cooked to perfection!! When they brought out the cake they played Happy Birthday and even joined in singing, which was a nice touch. Lovely evening. Relaxed atmosphere. First time we've tried here, will definitely go again. Thank you for a memorable evening.”
