Friends

When he opened Vivo e Vivo, owner Tony wanted to recreate the look and feel of a European wine bar and create a community space.  Tony was inspired by Ray Oldenburg’s book, “The Great Good Place” which suggests people need a third place that is neither home nor work to go for simply the pleasures of good company and lively conversation.  Vino e Vivo has become that place for many of its regular guests.
