Ate a late lunch here in a rainy Saturday...the view was terrific and so was the meal. We all had sandwiches -- a super-fresh BLT with shredded lettuce and loads of crispy bacon, and a couple of chix parms with house-made cutlets. Will 100% return.

Mediocre food quantity at best. My steak, was ordered medium rare and was served as a cool medium rare, so I can’t complain too much there, other than I was a very fatty cut. (It is what it is). Because of the almost properly cooked stew, they’ve earned their 2 stars from me. Violi’s does not earn any other because of the leather tough veal piccata, the BOILED chicken Marsala, and because of my empty iced tea. You can’t tell me it wasn’t boiled…unless it was microwaved fully. My tea was empty for about 15/20 minutes, then when the waiter came by filling waters, the pointed and requested a refill. He said he couldn’t hear me because it was too loud, which I’ll agree with, but contextual hints of the environment and each of our respective roles would lead the reasonable person to think I wanted more tea. Give me a break, it wasn’t too loud for him to see me pointing towards my empty iced tea.After walking around the table I re-stated I would like some more tea upon his earliest convenience, which he then proceeded to take my glass to actually refill it somewhere else.Extremely poor waitstaff table side manner.

Everything was fabulous, food, Eddie the waiter and the atmosphere. They serve decent portions. You can dress up or casual. I will definitely go back to Viola's.

Food is excellent. Our waitress Anita was a sweetheart, very friendly and attentive and I like the atmosphere because the tables are spaced out nicely so you're not jammed into a room trying to get as many tables as possible into the space. Been here 4 or 5 times and it never disappoints

Visiting from New York and picked this place based on reviews/menu. Glad I did! Friendly vibe, warm and friendly service, and delicious mussels (mussels are the tell tale sign for me). The mussels were served with freshly made ginormous garlic knot! Wowza! The best part was meeting Vickie, the bartender, who was born in the same hospital as me in Brooklyn!
