They opened the restaurant in 2015. The name of V.V. comes from ‘Viande’ meaning meat, ‘Vin’ for Vino and Vieilles Vignes for old grape wood. The chef grills over a charcoal fire to make ingredients the most delicious, and along with the madam, creates a comfortable place where their guests can enjoy the great parings between the chef’s delicious cooking plates and a glass of excellent wine. Madam Mii says, “Sommelier’s work is basically a service to customers. Besides selecting good wine and sake, we will give our guests a warm welcome.” V.V. is surely a superb elegant genuine French restaurant, which offers a real amenity to mature adults.
