    We Went To Violettes for our 30th Anniversary. They gave us a better table as well as a Champagne Toast. The Staff was Fantastic ! The food was great. My Wife Has The Tuna special and loved it. I had Shrimp and Lobster Risotto. It was Fabulous! Strawberry Mango Cheesecake and Cappuccino for dessert also great. I highly recommend Violettes. Very enjoyable.

    Food and drinks were delicious!!! And the service was top notch incredible!!! Our waiter went above and beyond. We were so happy and impressed. For context, we were a party of four adults and one toddler (high chair) for Sunday brunch at 11am.

    This was a chaotic Mother’s Day brunch. We did not get seated and receive our first course until an hour after our reservation time, so that is how our brunch started. Our first course (the croissant’s) came out ice cold and the “family style” portions were not giving family style. Luckily, we weren’t rushed out of our secluded room, but for the price pp, to not include any beverages & to have such limited food selections were disappointing. Typically I love to dine at Violette’s but they definitely overbooked & sadly the customers paid the price with the wait time & not stellar service/food. I certainly won’t be back on Mother’s Day!

    Violette’s Cellar was definitely a fun and unique experience! When you walk in, you can’t help but but look everywhere and try to take in everything at once because the atmosphere and ambience are very cool. You feel like you’re almost back in time in a speakeasy but modernized. The food was excellent though a little more expensive than most places I’ve been to for brunch. Drinks prices were fair and the service was good. It’s a great place to go with family and friends and would also be a fun place to celebrate a birthday. I enjoyed myself and intend to go back. 😁
