The complimentary beer/wine at lunch lasted through 2004. Beginning in January 2005 it was no longer included. However, on the motu days you can get free beer and all kinds of tropical mixed drinks for free during the day on the motus.
Like Eugene, we had wonderful meals at La Veranda. We had one dinner at Le Grill on our first trip but skipped it our second time around. However, some people enjoy Le Grill in the evening very much and have chosen to eat there more than once. It all depends on what you like.
