    White chocolate raspberry cheesecake
    Jessie W.

    It was my first time at Vi's. We only had the cheesecake, but it was AMAZING cheesecake. The richest cheesecake with incredible cream cheese flavour. The slices are expensive but huge, so it's worth it. The inside of Vi's was cute and quaint and seemed like a nice place to stop for lunch as well. I will definitely be back!

    Assorted pies

    I've had their mess before and they are very honestly, reminds me amid cook old home cooking. The ribs and shepherds pies are both great choices. They usually have their specials up on the board for you to view, and they move it around form table to table as you are seated. They also have a large assortment of cakes and pies to choose from as well. You can order full fixed cakes for special occasions or individual slices. My personal favourite is the Black Forest cake. The restaurant itself has been around for quite a while. Inside you will find a fire place and cozy seating, very homey and comfortable. If you decide to go on a busy night, make reservations as there is limited seating.

    Peach pie
    Kristin M.

    So I had pre-ordered a peach pie for my husbands birthday. And it was ready when I went to pick it up. The pie looked absolutely gorgeous, golden and crispy. However we were so disappointed with this pie. The filling was clearly made from canned fruit and was literally tasteless, it wasn't sweet at all. I'm not a huge pastry fan, but it's my husband's favourite and he also said the the pastry wasn't that great either. Very disappointed with the end result, and it's unfortunate as the pie looked so amazing. And it was not cheap either, like $30 for a pie that we didn't want to take a second bite out of.

    This is more like a 3.5 review rather than a 4. I came here for lunch on a Saturday after hearing some good things about it. It was quite busy inside but I was able to snatch one of the last few empty seats. They don't have a paper menu here but instead use a big chalkboard menu that they roll around to the tables. I ordered the Chicken Pot Pie and my boyfriend ordered the Shepherd's Pie. Chicken Pot Pie-I had high expectations for this becuase it seems to be a dish that's ordered often. Perhaps my expectations were set too high becuase it tasted like any normal chicken pot pie. Nothing was wrong with it but there wasn't anything that was unique or impressed me with the taste. Shepherd's Pie- I wish I ordered this instead. My boyfriend really enjoyed it. I had a couple of bites and it was delicious. The meat was flavourful and seasoned perfectly. The pie was soft and yummy to bite into. We also ordered dessert since it's what this place is known for. The pie pieces are big but $7 per piece is a bit steep. I rather have a smaller slice for a lower amount. We ordered a banana cream pie and carrot cake. They were both super creamy. It was a bit too much and we weren't able to finish the pieces. I feel like there's better desserts out there at other cafes. They were good the first couple of bites but it got too heavy in the end. Overall it's a homey restaurant/cafe that fits certain people's tastes but it's not a place I'll go back often.

    Ham and Swiss. Oh yea.
    Dino L.

    Ok. I've ordered desert/ pies and the peanut butter marshmallow squares. Absolutely delicious. So for the first time today I decided to go for lunch. The menu is what seems to be new daily. Colourfully Hand written on very large portable chalk boards. I was hungry for a sandwich so I ordered the ham and Swiss. It was a two hander for sure and was absolutely delicious. I definitely recommend it. They also have plenty of hand crafted soups/ specials daily. Remember, this was a pie shop over a decade ago. I will definitely be back to try many more items on the menu. Cheers

    Key lime cheesecake
    Zechen M.

    Super cute place to sit in the summer in their courtyard. Or take it home! I had the key lime pie cheesecake and the white raspberry cheesecake. I definitely preferred the white raspberry as the key lime was a bit too tarty for me. They also have a fun bistro menu that I hole to try. Super impressed with the decor in the patio!

    Orange pineapple cheesecake
    Kristin K.

    I came to Vi's for Pies twice last week! Pie, Pie, Oh My! Well, I mean... I intended to try the pie BUT the cheesecakes stared me straight down through their beautiful lit up glass display each time we came in. Okay, okay... Next time, I promise, I'll try Pie at Vi's! The service was exceptional on both of my recent visits. The first visit was a group of four following a function downtown. We sat, ate cheesecake, drank coffee, and visited for two hours. Not once did we ever feel pressured to leave - 5 stars right there! On my second visit, again we came for a dessert after supper elsewhere and admittedly it was a Friday night around 9pm and their display case was sadly lacking as nearly everything had been gobbled up by earlier patrons. Services was still top notch! Okay... the low down: Lemon Raspberry Cheesecake - OH MY GOODNESS... You shouldn't even be allowed to come here if you don't give this cheesecake a try. Tart and Sweet - heavenly! ( I mean, seriously... I love TART!) Orange Pineapple Cheesecake - My least favourite of everything I tried (think subtle flavours) but still a solid cheesecake Oreo Cheesecake - Brought home for a treat for my hubby, and we didn't try it for 2 days and it was still AWESOME! Strawberry Shortcake - Served in between a sliced raspberry scone? Um, yes please! I'm an American and I LOVE love LOVE my biscuit dough and/or scones. This was perfection. Chocolate Caramel Cheesecake - RICH, rich, RICH. Did I mention it's a really deep and rich dark chocolate cheesecake? Paired perfectly with a cup of joe and great for sharing! Key Lime Pie - Okay, I stole a bite of my friend's and it was divine! TART perfection. All the of the desserts (minus the one to go) were served with fresh whipped cream alongside - and the good pure stuff, not the sweetened stuff. Ahhh... Vi's for Pies! I think I've found my newest and most favourite dessert spot! And I cannot wait to come back on a warm day to try out their patio out back - it looks like a little secret garden surrounded by trellis wall climbing foliage. Their dinner menu had me wanting to come back for the full meal deal, too! I think it's cute that they bring around LARGE chalkboards to each table with the ever changing daily menu rather than a paper menu. Vi's for Pies, I cannot believe I waited this long to eat inside your restaurant. I've tried your goodies over the year at different gatherings and birthday parties and I'm sorry I didn't come sooner. I promise, to be a regular from here on out :-) See you soon!

    Quiet in the mornings
    Gabrielle R.

    This is the seniors hang out of Glenora! You know, the place where our grandparents congregate around their morning coffees to gossip...LOVE IT! Eavesdropping (not difficult, the place is empty in the morning) on their stories made my stay enjoyable and entertaining! I will give the cinnamon bun a million stars. It was delectably crusty and crunchy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside! I couldn't have asked for better ratios of sweet to doughy to cinnamon. That bun is a must-try in Edmonton! Served warm with butter The coffee on the other hand...emm...could have been stronger for my taste (see note about seniors above ), but a solid average cup paired well with the sweet bun. For the lack of distinguishing coffee, I've removed one star. Found parking right behind the building (not signed), and an enjoyably homey, delicious-smelling atmosphere inside. Would certainly return.

    Rocky road cake
    Donna B.

    Such a delightful spot! Definitely recommend! The service is great! The food is great! The desserts are to die for! A great place if you just want dessert and a latte, or if your feeling dinner they have a great selection- that comes to you not in a traditional menu but on a giant standing easel. We recently had the lime curry soup which was amazing! For deserts they are featured and you get a huge piece of a wide selection of tasty goodies- from carrot cakes, cheese cakes, mousses, and everything in between. You are sure to not be disappointed. Don't forget to take a piece or a whole cake home with you for later they have that option too! Seating is cozy, and although sometimes busy and noisy you can catch the nights where is quiet and almost romantic. Parking is right on the street and there is residential areas nearby with more parking.

    Totally overpriced for what is served. I could buy two pies at safeway for the price of one slice. And the service was bad.

The decoration was all out dessert-themed, which was great! But our server had such bad body odor!!! I don't mean to be rude, but it was so bad, the smell just lingered and trailed after him... our family had to hold our breath whenever he came by to take our order or to bring us our food. He was very kind! His smell just made the whole experience enjoyable. We wanted to stay longer and hang out, but we couldn't take it any longer. I would like to say we'll come back and try it again... but we won't. It will forever be known to our family as the stinky dessert place. Sorry!

    Great and fun place to go if you have a sweet tooth…read more Dessert menu is massive and takes a while to get through. Lot's of choices and what I appreciated is that there was a lot of non chocolate choices. There are some regular food menu items mostly focusing on burgers and fries, pizza and hotdogs. Think carnival food. I went with two other people so we decided to split the veggie fries, and for dessert we decided to split the Just Heavenly and Just Tantilize Your Tastebuds. We also had lattes. Food took awhile to come out and I would say our server was generally disinterested. However the ambiance was great. So pretty in there! Nice place to sit and linger with coffee and chit chat. Food was really good. I didn't expect much of the fries but they were fresh and hot and vibrant with veggies. Rich with cheese sauce and sour cream. Really, really delicous. Desserts were rich and lovely. I loved that the Just Tantilize Your Tastebuds was not too sweet. Both were really good. Definately come here especially if you love sweets but expect to roll out.

There was a large cake, cake slices, macarons in 2 different flavours, 2 different cream puffs, and I believe a few other items. They also advertised they have bubble tea, halo halo, and various pops. Behind the counter, there were white steamed buns and the gentleman working there told us there was pork inside. There were a few trays of baked breads and also a warmed with chicken empanadas. After lunch we went back to pick up a few things. I got 2 empanadas ($1.99 each) and 2 cream puffs ($2.25 each). My friend had one of the cakes before and said it was sweet so I decided not to try any as I don't like overly sweet desserts. Later that day, I had the cream puff and it was filled with lots of fluffy cream. The chicken empanada filling reminded me of what I use when I make chicken pot pie without the liquid. For $2, there was a decent amount of chicken but it was sweet and I prefer more savoury. I heated it in the toaster oven so the outside shell would be crispy and it was flaky and warm inside. If I'm in the area, I would go back and see what else they had. It's great to support a local business and the service was friendly.

I started the meal with the Don Vito cocktail, a spirit forward sweet concoction of Cognac, Bourbon and Limoncello. Immediately felt like it set the perfect tone for dinner. The tasting menu started with four appetizers, the Arancini, Goat Ricotta Crostini, Insalata Siciliana and the Culatello. My favorite was the arancini as it was packed full of melty cheese with so much flavor. The culatello was a crowd favorite and the crostini was a great palate cleanser. For secondi we had the Truffle Gnudi and Paccheri. For people who like meaty flavors go with the paccheri, but I liked the light cheese and truffle of the gnudi. By the time the Pollo Al Mattone came around, I could only manage a mouthful of the succulent brick chicken and the fresh cabbage salad as I was so full and would need to be rolled out of the restaurant. We ended with the Chocolate Budino, which was dark, creamy and delicious. A great tasting menu at a great price, especially compared to Toronto prices!
