Chef Vikram Vij praised the couple for being 'extremely nice and friendly.'

Chef Vij, who opened Vij's restaurant in 1994, shared with People magazine that the couples arrived around 7 p.m. and let the chef choose their meals. Vij, who noted on Instagram that the restaurant was "truly honored" to have Prince Harry and Meghan dine there, served the couples a variety of entrees and appetizers. He explained that he "asked them if there were any allergies or any things that she didn't feel like having, and Meghan said, 'I love spicy food.'"

The couples also enjoyed several cocktails over the course of an evening that the restaurateur described as "magical" for everyone at the restaurant.

Love was in the air at the upscale Indian restaurant.

In addition to spilling the tea on all the tasty items the couples enjoyed, which included potato cream curry, lamb kebabs, and even goat meat, Chef Vij also revealed that the couples all seemed pretty loved up.

He shared that Harry and Meghan "were extremely affectionate towards each other" and that he could "see the positivity in their relationship, the love, the affection that they have. The fun that they were having with Michael and Michael Bublé’s wife Lu."

According to the chef, the couple spread the good vibes around, even stopping on their way out of the restaurant to personally thank the kitchen staff for their meal.

The fun continued the next day.

Following their double-date night, Michael and Luisana joined Harry and Meghan for a public outing to highlight one of the new events in next year's Invictus Games: wheelchair curling.

The widely praised Invictus Games was founded by Prince Harry as a way of creating a free and inspiring "recovery pathway for international wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women." This year marks the 10th anniversary of the first games, which were held in London in 2014.

Harry and Meghan wrapped up their Canada trip with a dinner for Invictus Games staff and supporters.

After visiting athletes at the Invictus training camp, Harry brought the week of activities to a close at the One Year To Go dinner. The dinner featured a familiar face as Michael performed a personalized rendition of the classic song "My Way" for the crowd.

People magazine reported that Harry addressed the crowd and shared some heartfelt words: "When I am with the Invictus community surrounded by so many brave men and women who have served their countries with distinction, I feel humbled and at home … the past decade has been a testament to the power of resilience and the unbreakable spirit you all exemplify. And boy have we had fun on the way!" he said.

"From this trip, I am happy to report the air is thick with excitement, and the best part is, we’re just getting started," he continued. "The Invictus Games are not just a competition; they’re a way of life, a celebration of the human spirit."
