    We love Et Voila but were a little troubled on our Monday evening visit to find it so full and so noisy!!! Lots of people have discovered how good it is!! Even though they were super-busy the service was amazing and the food on the whole excellent, especially the mussels. unfortunately my husband had a hangar steak that was so tough he could hardly eat it. Still it is a great restaurant and definitely worth a visit.

    The food was amazing, the Augie’s platter started us off perfectly, along with an order of frites which came with a variety of tasty sauces to choose from. I finished with a lamb pot pie which was delightful, although next time I think I’ll try the jambalaya pasta. The food had a bit of a dragging wait time, but it was Saturday night and completely worth it.
