    It was our first time dining at MV. Loved the ambiance, and vibe. My husband and myself enjoyed our food, but one of our friends said their dish was too spicey! Other than that we had a great time.

    the food always the best- but our waiter probably didn’t want to be working the lunch shift.

    This was our first time here and was a recommendation from a friend. The décor is lovely, warm and comfortable. Our main comments was the cost of everything. The least expensive California Chardonnay was in the $74 a bottle. The salads ranged around $18.00 and was a mid size salad. Three of us shared one, each getting about 2/3rd of a cup each. We were told red snapper would be substituted for the sole. We made an assumption and this was our mistake, but thought the substitution was off the regular menu where the sole dish was $37.00. Two of us ordered this, but it turned out to be $56.00 each. The veal parmesan was also expensive at a cost of $39.00 coming with veggies. I say this because there are two other restaurants we go to that have veal parmesan (cut it with a fork) ranging between $28.00 ( with veggies- $2.00 extra for pasta) and $32.00, served with pasta. Our friend wanted angel hair pasta instead and was told the kitchen would not do this, but they would at 1/2 the cost of a pasta dish off the menu. I'm not positive what that cost was, but based on the pasta prices on the menu I'm suspecting it was about $16.00. The only dish I thought was responsible was the bolognaise at a cost of $34.00. With all that said, the quality of the food was very good. Just be prepared to spend a lot when coming here.

    MV is honestly one of the most beautiful, festive and accommodating restaurants. Especially at this time of year- soo festive! We went on a cold night and it was a bit chilly, so I was glad I didn’t wear something sleeveless or backless. The food is amazing and this restaurant really takes pride in their dishes which are family recipes. All 6 of us loved everything!
