    So for starters, it’s gorgeous. The architecture was so interesting mainly because it’s so ornate and large, so I had to look up what it used to be, and it used to be a bank and supposedly they preserved some of the original bank features like the vault. I’d love to have a tour of the actual building. I am an escargot snob. Theirs was OK. The strip, Brussels, and Mac were very good. I have leftovers and I cannot wait to eat them.

    We had a wonderful time - the atmosphere and people are fabulous! Our waitress Maggie made the night, carefully advising wine, tea, soup, avocado Caesar( a must share starter) and the amazing crispy trout - the sauce, veges and fish was so scrumptious !!! Last week we tried the scallops risotto ( big wow) to finish our meal we had crème brûlée which had a tinge hint of orange 😊 Ask for Maggie as your server- she’s such a bundle of joy and makes your do ing experience fabulous !

    A group of 4 wanted to split a lot of our lunch choices...plus the checks. No problem. Not only were they accommodating of all of that, our choices came to us already split. Not all restaurants would do that. Staff is charming and knowledgeable. Prices are good. Et Viola is one of my go-to restaurants for good reason. We had mussels, salads and French Onion soup by the way.
