    ★★★★★ An Unforgettable Valentine's Evening at MV Our Valentine's Day dinner at Restaurant MV was nothing short of magical. MV proved to be the perfect setting for a romantic celebration. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of understated elegance and warmth. The restaurant's intimate lighting and thoughtful table spacing created an environment where conversation flowed naturally, and each table felt like its own private dining sanctuary. The service staff struck that perfect balance between attentiveness and discretion, anticipating needs without hovering. The special Valentine's menu showcased a brilliant fusion of Italian flavors and cuisine. The wine list deserves special mention, featuring an impressive selection of both Old and New World wines and for dessert, the ricotta cheesecake and zabaglione with strawberries was devine – a classic Valentine's treat executed with precision and care. Price-wise, while MV sits in the higher end of the spectrum, the quality of ingredients, execution, and overall experience fully justified the investment for such a special occasion. This isn't just dinner – it's a carefully orchestrated culinary journey that creates lasting memories. For those seeking a truly special dining experience in New Jersey, Restaurant MV stands out as a destination worth the trip to Bernardsville. It's clear why securing a Valentine's Day reservation here is so coveted – the combination of sophisticated ambiance, exceptional service, and outstanding cuisine creates an evening that lingers in memory long after the last bite. Highly recommended for special occasions, particularly for couples seeking a romantic dining experience that goes above and beyond the ordinary.

    Excellent but expensive. Nice atmosphere but could have used more staff. Service was slow. Parking is a mess. Food was great but not a great value.

    Excellent experience. The mozzarella appetizer with charred broccolini and roasted red pepper, the baked eggplant, shrimp far diavolo and the chocolate ravioli dessert were all fantastic. The dessert came with “happy anniversary” in chocolate which was so nice. The ambience is lovely and all the staff so friendly. Can’t wait to go back.

    As usual the food , service and ambiance was great. However, we were charged way too much for six skinny bread sticks. $12.00 so $2.00 per bread stick. Cmon guys. That’s just ridiculous and disrespectful. Why ruin a great relationship with a petty and gratuitous rip-off?

    Hi , My name is Mike and I am the Maitre’d at Ristorante MV. I would like to start by thanking you for dinning with us. All the bread we make in the house and we do not charge for it. May I kindly ask for a contact number for us to be able to find out what happened. Thank you and looking forward to hearing from you

    MV dining is always a pleasure. It’s my weekly vacation in 90 minutes. A bit expensive but so is a vacation. 😃
