If the menus ARE different, I would pick Sonya's- at Sonya's the food was delicious- some of the best scallops I have ever eaten are on that menu! YUM! But, more than that, at Sonya's you get more of a fine dining experience where the meal takes longer and they fuss over you more- at Shutter's, the food was fine, but it was more casual. There is a link in my sig to a TR I just finished about VB- on the first page i posted links to the posts, so you can just see what they were both like pretty easily as we went to both. Have a great time!
We will be there on Valentine's Day as well and was just thinking about where to eat. Unfortunately our girls will be with us and I don't think they will want to stay in the villa alone at night so... it will be a Valentine's Day dinner for 4!! Any suggestions?? I'm thinking pizza on the deck with a bottle of wine ...or two.
You could have your girls go to the Discovery Kids Club if you really want alone time. Cost is $30pp for 3 hrs and includes dinner. We do this once each trip. Or have them join you and crank up the wine. There's so many great dining places in VB you can't lose!
