    This was our first time dining at Et Voila and we were very impressed from start to finish. We went on a Tuesday night for their date night special which is a great deal! My husband and I ordered different items so we could share. We thoroughly enjoyed the mushroom ravioli starter; it was rich and flavorful. My short rib entree with mashed potatoes brought me back to my times in France. The portions are generous and the baguette, bottle of wine and dessert that come with the special make it an excellent deal. What we were most impressed with, however, was the service. The entire team worked in unison effortlessly. Great team work! Gabriel and Salim were especially friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and very good at what they do. We never felt rushed and the pacing between courses was just right. Everything was seamless, relaxing, and enjoyable. Can’t wait to go back!
