    We love coming to South Village Grille for special occasions, because they always give us the best experience! The food, service, and ambience are all fantastic, and it makes our evening out that much better. The cocktails are creative, and the food menu has so many great options. I love having the option of both the Grille menu, and the sushi menu from Jony's next door.

    After a wine tasting event, we made reservations here. Excellent choice. Robert was our outstanding server. What a terrific night. Beet Burrata salad and the specialty pizza, delicious! Plus, a specialty cocktail.. This is a gem of a restaurant.

    Shout out to our waitress Alissa! She was awesome from the beginning explaining the specials, the popular dishes to her favorites. She was also very attentive to our table with drinks and food. The Burrata and beet salad was amazing! The burger with truffle fries was also so good. We live near Polaris and would definitely drive down here again for the service and food!

    The entire experience was top notch. Best sushi I’ve had in a while. Sushi chef William was exceptional and the rest of the staff were very attentive and friendly. I live only a few minutes away and can’t believe I didn’t visit sooner.
