    Phenomenal food and ambience. Service was great and prompt. It is a bit loud in there if visiting for a work meeting, but manageable. Highly recommend

    LIV provided a great evening. We took advantage of happy hour cocktails. The spicy margarita was great. The food was absolutely delicious. Intolerances were well taken care of too. The service was great and knowledgeable and friendly.

    Another lovely evening at LIV. Cozy place with a great vibe. Food is both creative and delicious! Service was exceptional! Loved the tuna special sharing platter. The chicken dumplings and pork chow mein were so flavourful!! A burst of flavours. The pumpkin cheesecake was a real treat!

    Literally the best restaurant in St Johns! The food and drinks are always delicious and we look forward to every new menu! I’m very glad the kept the fire cracker rolls on the menu too! Normally the service is amazing too but it was slower than normal and we did not get a refill on water. Otherwise, outstanding as always!

    The food and service were good, but I was disappointed that we had to leave our table and go to the bar to finish our meal. It was my first experience ever having a time limit of an hour and a half for an evening meal. Actually, first time ever having any time limit for a reservation.
