    La Voile is one of my favorite restaurants and tonight was a great time as usual. This tomato salade and this Cod and Quinoa were a great recommendation for this summer time and they were absolutely delightful. Thank you very much, and see you next time

    Whenever we're in Boston, we make sure to have dinner here. The food and service are excellent, and the wine list exemplary. Try the Betterave appetizer, the duck, the loup de mer. All terrific. This visit we were placed in the backroom. Unfortunately there were two very loud tables. The staff was very accommodating and moved us to a table in the main room. It was still noisy, but so much better. I would request to be seated in the main room when you book.

We appreciate your note about the seating and will keep this in mind to help ensure a more comfortable experience next time. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

    We love La Voile, most authentic French restaurant in Boston with delicious classic dishes which are hard to find, ex. Île Flottante. Great service to match by friendly and well-trained staff. My only concerns this time were: 1) despite having a reservation and being punctual, we were seated in the small back "overflow" room; 2) menu on Open Table is quite misleading, as current prices are about 20-30% higher. Please update!
    La VoileResponded 5 days ago
    Hi Amy, Thank you so much for your continued support and kind words about our food and team, it means a lot to us. We truly value your feedback and apologize for the seating experience this time. We'll also make sure our online menu is updated to better reflect current pricing. Your insights help us improve, and we hope to welcome you back again soon!
