Good food, wonderful service, live music was a little too loud for where we were seated, making table conversation a bit more difficult. Other than that, a very nice evening out.

We enjoyed our whole evening!!! The mussels as an appetizer, then the shared entree of trout almondine with lemon butter sauce were so delicious!! We ended the meal sharing the bread pudding, so delicious & not too heavy! Our server was so helpful & knew just when we needed her; even before we realized it!! We will be coming back for sure!!! FYI we travelled 45 minutes to get there , but definitely worth the drive!! We shared a bottle of Zinfandel too!!!

Petite Vilolette is an annual tradition for my wife and me. We didn't make it in 2024 so we came a little late. The ambiance is not too dark and not too light. The food is always excellent. I usually get the soup of the day (lobster bisque) and my wife got the appetizer special (fried green tomatoes). The chef and kitchen staff take care to ensure your meal is made to your specific requests. Service is great and, on the weekends, you may get to hear some live music. The musician on duty this last night was a wonderful guitarist with some good stories.
