    La Voile is a gem of a restaurant in Back Bay! The ambiance is charming, the food is creative and delicious, the staff is dedicated to pampering you, and the chocolate mousse is the best ever! And the Dover Sole was exceptional and cooked to perfection! We are now devoted fans! Thank you for creating a joyful experience! Gail McMeekin

    Amazing Christmas Dinner experience. 10/10. The ambiance. The menu. The service. Brought my mother here visiting from St. Louis. She’s not easily impressed. She’s raving! Thank you.

    We dined here Christmas Day and the food was amazing. The service was impeccable and could not fault any part of our experience. If we were local we would return!

    The food was excellent. The foi gras was perfectly cooked; the dover sole in its lemon butter sauce was excellent. The service was very good and cordial

    Lovely night out at Le Voile. Everything was tasty-we had the fish soup, onion soup and the mushroom as well as the escargot to start- then had the scallop /lobster risotto, venison and Dover sole . All very good / Dover sole was probably the least favorite . Great wine selection. Finished it off with the molten cake and custard- all very delicious.

    Always love visiting La Voile. 2 wine tastings sponsored by Manika Khana, but never for Christmas Eve. The experience was fantastic! Everything was great, ambience, staff, wine, food...everything. One of our wait staff had to card our 26 year old daughter, and it was done in such a cool way. All good. GO! great French Bistro!!!
