La Villa has been our special restaurant to officially celebrate our anniversary for the last 14 years or so with the exception of last year (pandemic) and the year after Irma While I enjoy the food we really enjoy the service which may be the most welcoming on the island Although Florence was absent the evening we visited, Christophe, John Carlos (JC) and Cedric all took very good care of us Christophe valeted our car and offered to retrieve it after diner but we had to drive back around (one way street) to get back to GCBC so walking to the church to get the car was not a problem
We have known JC since he was a young kid starting out as a quite busboy and even remember offering him a ride home after his shift He has grown into an exception server with a personality unmatched He makes everyone feel comfortable and will certainly give you a laugh as he is a jokester You may also see him at Orange Fever on Orient working lunch He is also the house photographer and makes the after dinner rum (banana easier to drink) You can just watch him and know he loves making his guests happy
My profiterole picture may have been affected by my drinking oops!! My wife selected the lemon glace dessert special and it was refreshing and light after a big meal (she usually orders the pick me up coffee)
La Villa will always be our anniversary restaurant because of the genuine welcoming service
La Villa is also our favorite dinner for our birthdays and anniversary. Florence was not there but JC, Christophe, and Cedric were there. They are the best in town.
Thanks for all the restaurant reviews you've been sharing. All the great dining is one of our reasons for returning to the island often, so we appreciate hearing about all the places you've tried. We agree with your comments about the wonderful service at LaVilla. Other places in Grand Case may have slightly better food but the friendliness and warmth of the staff at LaVilla can't be beat.
