Had the privilege to have dinner here for Valentines this month.We were staying at the Villa and were lucky enough to snag a table. We were greeted with a glass of bubbly each, a rose and chocolates. The meal was one of the best we've had in a long time. The service was smooth and discrete and we were serenaded by a very talented singer and pianist. Was a really memorable meal. Highly recommend.
