La Voile

Restaurants-French

Inside dining is cozy and romantic while an outdoor patio is refreshing in warmer weather.

In this French land of housemade terrines and bone marrow, vegetarian options are limited.

Charmante. Authentique. Délicieux. That this French bistro could possibly have made its way from its former home of Cannes to the Back Bay --- to the hub of overpriced pretension that is Newbury Street, no less --- is hard for local foodies to grasp. But they have --- returning to the classically handsome yet simple place again and again to experience Provençal cuisine that’s absolutely --- no...

"Wonderful" French fare and a "lovely", "intimate" space (with a "grand" garden-level patio) largely built from pieces of its progenitor in Cannes make this bistro "a little touch of the Riviera" in the Back Bay; what's more, the "charming", "informative" crew helps take the sting out of "pricey" tabs.

Often credited as the most authentic French restaurant in town, this quality cuisine is naturally accompanied by a hefty price tag. Traditional dishes and an unapologetically French wait staff ensure a true cultural experience.

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.
