    Our first luxury dinner at a hotel restaurant was a delightful experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the staff friendly, and the dishes delicious. While it was slightly expensive, it was well worth it for the overall experience.

    The service is very nice and professional. My only note is that the rice porridge is not porridge but more of a rice bowl. Porridge should have more liquid in it, more like a thick soup.

    Hello Bennie, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We’re pleased to hear you found our service professional and enjoyable. We appreciate your observation about the rice porridge.

    The food is good. The service was also good however they never asked if we wanted anything else like a dessert or another drink etc. Prices were on the higher side but that’s to be expected. The dining area is small but all in all the ambience was very pleasant.

    Dear Sheri, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the food, service, and ambiance.

    The huevos rancheros were fantastic. The service was terrific. We had a couple of issues that had nothing to do with the restaurant, and they went out of their way to help us. The restaurant is also only a block from the Orpheum Theatre, making it the perfect place to get a meal before or after. We will definitely be returning.

    Dear Janet, Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the huevos rancheros and received terrific service.

We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    We are a group that has season tickets to the Best of Broadway and like to go to Villon when the show is at the Orpheum. The restaurant is lovely but we ALL wish they would change the menu occasionally or have specials. The choices are rather limited. Would it be possible to extend the breakfast time to noon? At least we would have more options.
    VillonResponded on October 15, 2024
    Dear Guest Anne, Thank you for being a loyal guest and for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you and your group enjoy visiting us before the Best of Broadway shows. We appreciate your suggestion regarding updating the menu or offering specials and will certainly take it into consideration. Extending breakfast hours to noon is also a great idea, and I will discuss this with our team to explore the possibility of adding more options during your visits. We look forward to welcoming you back and ensuring an even better experience.

    We just had a quick lunch before we went to a Broadway play and my husband had the hamburger which he said was pretty much lukewarm and not very appealing. His french fries were delicious. I had the club sandwich and french fries and agreed about the french fries while my club sandwich was just okay. It was not anything unique or extremely flavorful. The staff was very pleasant and charming.
    VillonResponded on October 15, 2024
    Dear Guest Linda, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the french fries and found our staff pleasant and charming. However, we regret that the hamburger was lukewarm and that your club sandwich did not meet your expectations in flavor. We take your comments seriously and will address the temperature and quality of our dishes with the kitchen team to ensure a better experience for our guests.
