Vivace's is a small restuarant in the Nob Hill area on Central. There is only about 12 tables, but the food is first class. They have an excellent selection of pasta dishes and tend toward northern italian sauces (not tomato based). In addition, they can add a bit of new mexican flair by adding a touch of green chile to the sauce. The atmosphere is very cozy with cloth napkins and table clothes, smaller tables, and incredible smells from the kitchen. Vivace's is a lunch favorite for my friends and family.
