La Voile is an authentic French brasserie, opened in Cannes in 1947. After a few years under a new ownership, it relocated to Boston in 2007.
“La Voile atmosphere was very beautiful. The service and the food too. The french fries were a bit dry but the steak was delicious and i loved it. The mocktails were great too.”
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at a highly acclaimed French restaurant, and the experience was truly exceptional. Their signature dishes, particularly the foie gras and escargots, stood out— the foie gras was luxuriously smooth with a perfectly balanced sauce, while the escargots were expertly prepared, aromatic, and full of classic French flavor. The other dishes were equally impressive, reflecting the freshness of the ingredients and the chef’s meticulous attention to detail. The dining environment is elegant and comfortable, offering a serene atmosphere ideal for both formal gatherings and intimate dinners. The service is professional and attentive, striking the perfect balance between warmth and courtesy, which greatly enhances the overall experience. Considering the quality of the food and the overall experience, the pricing is very reasonable. Overall, this is a top-tier French restaurant well worth multiple visits, with the foie gras and escargots highly recommended.”
“We enjoyed the early spring outdoor patio sitting and nice weather while having our meal. They have good options on the menu, le boeuf was delicious, tender and juicy just like what we wanted, l’entrecote was fresh and well seasoned but unfortnately we asked for medium rare and got well-done. I don’t recommend les escargots as it was too salty and chewy. Service and staff are their positive points.”
“Came here for a lunch date during Dine Out Boston. My partner and I both ordered from the prix fixe menu — $36 for three courses. The price was unbeatable. For appetizers we tried the terrine and the cauliflower soup, for mains the monkfish and risotto, and for dessert the floating island and the chocolate mousse. The terrine was absolutely delicious and I could have had it on its own as a light lunch. The caramelized onions really added a lot to the dish. The soup and monkfish were okay, a bit bland for my taste but not bad. The risotto was similarly okay — good, but a bit plain. The goat cheese added a lot and made the whole dish. I would have that for a light lunch as well. As for desserts, the floating island was too sweet for me to have more than a single bite. The mousse was good, very thick and rich but the strawberries on top balanced it out well! The ambiance of this restaurant was beautiful. My partner and I sat inside on the high top tables, and the vibe of a French bistro was captured perfectly. The nautical themes added a lot, and the setting felt very cute and romantic. I don’t think I’d necessarily come here again, but I don’t regret trying it out and I might bring my parents here, or friends who like simpler, lighter foods.”
“It is fancy restaurant, but food... 🤔was good, but not the best. Service awesome and atmosphere was loud. I did order 4way menu. Samon tart and Napolion desert was very basic and was with the crackers. Surprised me a monkfish. Was good. Another main dishes wasn't a big deal. A little disappointed. Need do reservation.”
