    The service was wonderful. The food was delicious. My husband's skirt steak was cooked perfectly and I really enjoyed the crab and shrimp scampi. The meatballs were some of the best I ever had, they melted in my mouth. Would definitely go back.

    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!
