    I love the beautiful Christmas decorations La V has each year. The service was wonderful— real old-fashioned courtesy— and ambience was very nice, if a little noisy. Tablecloths would dampen the noise. My only issue is that La V has has the same lunch menu for ages. It’s time for a change.

    Paradiseae exceeded my expectations in every way - food, ambience and service were first class. I was especially impressed that the chef created custom vegan and pescatarian multi-course meals so that we could all enjoy the Chef’s menu. Everyone loved the creative and delicious food and cocktails. Will definitely come back if we’re in town again. Tip for vegans: contact the restaurant in advance so they can accommodate.
