    Enjoyed the restaurant. Ambiance was great and cozy. Food was delicious and service was superb. My only criticism is that they didn’t have the fillet so I ordered rib eye, which turned out just fine. Happens. Other than that, would highly recommend.

    MV is one of the best restaurants in the area for special occasions. Their food quality and service is tremendous. The menu selection is very large and if you cannot find it, they can probably make it for you. Their prices are high but that is why I only go there a couple of times every few months. Love the place and recommend this restaurant always.

    With great memories of meals at the Madison location a group of friends enjoyed a delicious dining experience again. Our server Dana was wonderful!! Patient, friendly and especially helpful answering our questions and making perfect suggestions. The burrata appetizer was a great start. The entire wait staff was very attentive anticipating all our needs. Our entrees included pork chops, filet mignon and filet mignon with crab cake. The full garlic bulb and bread dip was delicious. The white sangria a perfect accompaniment, too! Will make sure to leave room for dessert next visit....which will be soon👍
