In Short – With a handful of patio tables and a bistro-style interior, this sweet-smelling ode to chocolate offers more than just the average shopping mall eatery. The menu includes two dozen flavors of gelato made in-house daily with organic milk and authentic Italian creaminess, mini chocolate cakes and assorted truffles. Chocolate fondue is also available in milk or dark chocolate for one to three people. Build your palate by creating your own or choosing from one of the six wine and truffle pairings including a sparkling wine pairing and another featuring three old world wines with…
Editor's Tips
- The Extras:
- Rent a 3-foot or 5-foot chocolate fountain for your next catered event. Call for more catering options and pricing.

- Thursday and Friday make for great date nights with live in-house musical performances.
- Know Before You Go:
- There's a private dining room in the back that can be reserved for Viva's signature chocolate parties for birthdays, anniversaries or any other special occasion.

The Best Chocolate/Gelato Shop in Austin By Far!!
by Macetheace at Citysearch
This is the best chocolate shop in Austin by far with its warm ambiance, live music, amazing selection of European Chocolate Truffles, Unique Locally-Made Chocolates like the TitoRita Truffle (made with local Tito's Vodka), Tito's Cosmo Truffle, Blue Cheese Truffle, etc. Also, the yummiest gelato in town and the only place you can get champange by the glass! Great discovery for a romantic date!
- Pros: Best Ambiance, Best Chocolates, Best Wine Selection
- Cons: So many chocolates, so little time.
Overpriced!
by jillcamper at Citysearch
Simply overpriced Chocolate and Wine with poor service. $3.00 for a small truffle and $10 for at best an average glass of wine.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Overpriced Chocolate, Wine, and poor service
Love it ! Love it !

Wonderful desserts. Yes they are a bit on the expensive side but what at the Domain isn't. I have to tell you if you go to Cold Stone and spend $6 on the large Ice Cream your silly. Whe you can go to the Domain to Viva and spend $6 on a organic gelato that is out of this world and is much better for you. The gelato has gone alittle down hil but it is still very very wonderful.
- Pros: Wonderful Gelato
- Cons: Customer service
Best in Chocolate, Gelato, Panini's and pretty Good in Wines

A necessary stop when you're at the Domain. Great Panini sandwiches. The Gelato is the best!!!! And the music on Fridays pack the house. Need more seating. I love it there.
- Pros: Great desserts, chocolate and Panini
- Cons: More wines on the list!
