    We had a lovely dinner at La voile last evening. It was crowded so we sat at the bar. Sondra was our server/bartender and she did a great job. My husband and I shared a green salad and the sole that was deliciousl. They have an excellent wine menu and our wine by the glass was perfect with our meal. Thanks for a wonderful evening. We shall return!.
