Incredible experience, tons of amazing and rare foods. Chefs tell you all about what you are eating, where it is from, and the food is incredible. Small intimate feel with music makes the atmosphere shine. You are able to watch the chefs prepare the food, and see how much effort and pride they take in preparing the best sushi you could ever have. Expensive, but a treat if you’re able to go.

Absolutely incredible service (we sat at the bar to order ala carte). we were treated so well, the food was to die for, atmosphere was lovely. This is a PERFECT Special Occasion place to go. Best meal we'd had in a very long time. The food and drinks are quite pricey, but it was a wonderful experience

We had a wonderful meal and great service. The open table app does not adequately describe the menu (which was excellent).

About the restaurant
Voilà French Bistro in Scottsdale offers classic bistro dishes in an exquisitely designed setting. With Sandrine and Maxime and the rest of the team it will be like stepping into France. We are the place for seafood, foie gras, escargot and more.
New owners since January 1st 2024, which includes Chef Maxime. Maxime has and extensive culinary experience of twenty plus years in France, Maxime excels in the traditional French cuisine, with a keen interest on leveraging and innovating with seasonal products. His extensive experience was enriched from working for Michelin star chefs in the east of France, as well as from his training by Chef Jean-Christophe, the previous chef at Voila.In the kitchen, originality in dish plating and taste are words he thinks about every day. What you will experience is not la nouvelle cuisine but la cuisine traditionelle moderne.” A night at Voilà is the perfect place for date night, friends getting together, a nice family dinner, or private party.

This was our first visit to Voila and it was memorable. The servers were very warm and friendly. The ambiance was perfect for a smallish French Bistro. We started with escargot and smoked salmon. The escargot was very tasty and the salmon was to die for. Both of our entree's....the sole and trout were very nice cuts of fish and prepared perfectly. The recommended bottle of red wine was right up our alley and excellent with food. We will be back.

About the restaurant
We believe a dinner over amazing food should be an experience that brings people together. The desire to produce lifelong memories over a meal comprised of locally sourced (when possible) seasonal ingredients coupled with an internationally recognized wine program rarely seen in the US - excites us. These delectable dishes that are meant to be shared with family and friends is the conduit for building fond memories. We long for our guests to feel welcomed and relaxed with a casual-elegance that shines long after the last forkful and interesting sips.

About the restaurant
Every ingredient that goes into our menu must be of the highest quality. Our prime-grade beef is part of what makes us the steakhouse Scottsdale residents and visitors are talking about. We offer several different sizes of cuts, and our chef has crafted numerous toppings to enhance your experience. Our side dishes perfectly complement our entree selection, and many guests often rave about our Alaskan king crab mac and cheese and our corn créme bruleé. We also serve a selection of fresh seafood from our raw bar, such as freshly shucked oysters, Maine lobster tail and iced Alaskan king crab. All of our steaks are served a la carte, letting each guest personalize their plate. Our full bar offers an extensive wine selection.
