When Valentine’s Day calls for something more considered than a standard reservation, The Grill at The International offers an experience shaped by precision, atmosphere and quietly confident cooking. Set in the heart of the city, the restaurant has become a destination for couples who value time well spent, where food, wine and conversation unfold at an unhurried pace.
Under the direction of Culinary Director Joel Bickford, The Grill centres its menu around premium produce prepared over live fire, a technique that brings depth and clarity to each dish without excess. The approach balances classic culinary foundations with a global fine dining sensibility, resulting in plates that feel refined yet grounded, expressive yet restrained. Every element, from sourcing to execution, is handled with intention.
What makes the experience particularly compelling for Valentine’s Day is the setting itself. The Grill’s luxurious indoor-outdoor space invites intimacy without formality, allowing couples to settle into the rhythm of the evening rather than rush through it. Warm, attentive hospitality ensures the focus remains on connection, whether marking a milestone or simply sharing an exceptional meal together.
For those seeking a Valentine’s Day gift that feels personal, memorable and entirely centred on shared experience, The Grill at The International delivers an evening that lingers long after the final course.
