I had the best dining experience I’ve ever had in my life. I brought my boyfriend here for his birthday and the staff made us feel like celebrities. Not only were the appetizers, entrees and dessert amazing but the service was beyond amazing. A big thanks to our server for making us feel so special. I will definitely be coming back.

Unexpected great experience. Good food. Great service.

This was our second time eating at MV. The service is truly outstanding. The wait staff was never far from our table and accessible if needed. They don't rush you to order or eat. All the food was tasty and presented well in the plates and in generous portions. I had hoped for a scingili dish that I'd had before, but it was not on the menu that night. The shrimp dish I chose was great. Yes, we will go again.
