This place has been open for 18 years. I realize that in the grand scheme of things that is not a terribly long time but as far as Krabi is concerned for Italian restaurants this is a very big deal.

This is the oldest Italian restaurant in Krabi and this is a fact for a very good reason. I have only been here 14 years but i have seen many Italian places come and go. Here is the way it works: Restaurant opens up... does well, places open up nearby with the same menu trying to capitalize on their success, price war begins, most if not all places close because they can not pay the rent.
This has been the sequence of events since i have lived here. The copies emerge and then they all fail and then the original is still left standing. This is the case with Viva.
The Italian owner is still in the kitchen every day making pizzas and everything else day-by-day for all of his customers and honestly, if you are in Krabi and find yourself craving Italian food you only need to look for one place.

They have incredible staff, a massive menu, and wines and beers from around the world. The best part is that they keep everything in stock at all times. Tonight I had homemade Tiramisu and even though I don't normally eat sugar it was absolutely fantastic.
You can expect to spend about 200-400 Baht a person here and while that is a bit beyond what you might spend at a Thai food establishment it is totally worth it.
this is the owner "Renalto" and his wife welcoming you with one of their many wines
The only reason why it is still there is a hands on approach from an Italian couple.The hospitality business is really hard work and if you are not knee deep in the running of it you will be in trouble.Good to see established places remaining no matter what competition springs up.Nice review.

The owner looks quite young! So he must have settled there since he’s very young. Very good looking couple.

Wow. This is really a oldest restaurant. For 18 years. That has been old. I guess i can even barely see a restaurant close to 10 years around where i live

The original stays forever and replicas don't, that's indeed a matter of fact. I have witness many such cases here too.
Keep up with amazing content.
