    We had another wonderful experience at La Voile. The food was great and the service was friendly and helpful. We were in the smaller back room which got quite loud at times, but overall it was a great evening and we'll be back.

    The best meal by far we have had on a two week holiday to Montreal, Quebec, New York then Boston. If you like fish, then the Dover Sole is the dish for you.

    Super attentative and friendly staff- from the host, to the bartenders, to the waitstaff, we felt taken care of at every moment. We made a reservation but waited at the bar until our table cleared- the wait staff kept us updated consistently and offered a high top to seat us earlier. We were fine with waiting and were eventually seated at a small table indoors. The meal was delicious and so was the dessert! Would love to come back again for the friendly staff alone

    What a wonderful evening! We had to wait a few minutes for our table, but it was well worth the wait! Alec and his wait staff were outstanding and went out of their way to make us feel welcome! The food was outstanding and quite reasonably priced. We highly recommend and will be back!

    The food and service was great. Only tweaks they might consider are dimming the lights and candles on the table for Parisian feel.

    If you enjoy authentic French cuisine and a cozy, non-fussy brasserie, La Voile is highly recommended. My favorite and also a great spot for romantic lunches. Delightful.
