I am a big foodie and have had the best of meals but this dinner at la villa Will be one of the memorable meals of my life. I tried the 7 course chef’s tasting menu and boy was it good. Each dish different and...exquisite in its own right. Right from the presentation to taste it was a complete masterpiece. Brilliant all round. I might visit Pondicherry just for a meal at la villaMore

If you are looking to relax and enjoy french hospitality in a romantic setting this is a must visit. We love french food and were looking for a fusion experience to really enjoy the local cuisine with French style cooking La Villa checked all boxes...for us. I had the seven course tasting menu and it was perfect. I was stuffed by the end of it. The price is very reasonable for the quality, quantity and the ambiance. Its a perfect setting. If you enjoy long french 3-4 hr dinners then you have to try this place. Imaya who manages Villa shanti recommended us to come here and I am glad we made the reservations. During Covid times, we wanted to make sure the restaurant is not crowded and proper protocols are being followed. We were not disappointed. The hostess Marie was super nice. Spent time chatting with her. We met the Chef Michel Christmann and it was lovely chatting with him about the food and France. The only thing we missed was french wine which we later learnt about the restrictions put in place due to Covid. Absolutely Loved it!! Thank you Marie, Imaya, and the staff of La Villa for making our visit memorable. You might see us again in few weeks. Merci!More

One of the most friendly, relaxed, welcoming, chilled and best designed hotels. The joy is its simplicity, atmosphere and extremely good food. Good value for money, good location. The rooms have been really thought through, effortless to stay there and a real pleasure. As a...couple we can be quite picky, we stayed 3 nights and cannot fault this hotel.More

Probably the best small hotel we have ever visited. An oasis in busy city, we felt at home immediately. The Villa it's self has been renovated to the highest standard but still looks as if it comes from another age. So charming! The staff were...so helpful and friendly and made us feel very welcome. Luckily, we booked a table for dinner as the restaurant seems to be extremely popular.After eating we knew why. A fantastic meal all round ,topped off with an exquisite lemon tart .Our waiter come barman made us the best Cosmopolitan we have ever had. Next time we come to Puducherry we will make sure that we stay longer. Thank you all at La Villa!More

We visited La Villa primarily after reading the reviews on TripAdvisor, and it absolutely lived up to our expectations. One of the best restaurants serving French cuisine that I have tasted. This place has only a limited number of seats, so be sure to make...a reservation a day before you plan to visit the restaurant. If anyone is interested in authentic French food, then this is the place. The ambience is really nice for a relaxed meal, and the staff is polite, courteous and helpful. Every item we tasted was fantastic, and would love to revisit this place again.More

Outstanding fresh locally-sourced French food served in a tranquil courtyard garden in front of an imposing 19th century manor house. Great Indian wines, lovely amuse bouche, phenomenal value for money.

The garden is beautiful and it's a pleasure to have your dinner in this romantic place. The food is very good and there is a French gastro touch in the plates.
