Reviews
"Came here with a friend for Thanksgiving dinner. It was our first time at the restaurant and we enjoyed our meal. You all helped make our Thanksgiving special. Totally recommend for holiday dinners, especially for duos and smaller groups. They offer a broader selection for courses and stay pretty on timing compared to what I heard about other Thanksgiving dinners around Atlanta. Got there right on time for our reservation and had to wait a few minutes which was fine, because we were able to have a drink at the bar before they were ready to seat us. They were very apologetic for it which I thought was unnecessary but I am more patient than most others. It was less than a 15 min wait. Service was great and everything was smooth, just slightly smaller portions than I expected. They allowed us to order an extra dessert, which we appreciated. ☺️ Valet was available but we parked at the bank. No ticket or tow. Would definitely recommend for a holiday dinner."
"I went here for my anniversary with my girlfriend, and it was a very pleasant experience (even with the thunderstorm). The highlight of the meal for both of us was the mussels (they were amazing) and the duck. The waiters were also quick and helpful throughout the night."
"A solid dining experience. PV has always been a bit pricey. The good news is that with inflation they have kept the prices pretty similar to what they have been while other restaurants have gone up. So, it doesn’t feel like you are over paying as much as you used to. Food quality is ACE. Worth it!"
"Live, harmonious string instruments. An attentive manager, socializing all around the restaurant with guests. This place truly has unique features that make it like none other in hospitality. Things you should know: I. PARKING There's only valet parking, so make sure you have some cash on you. It makes the parking experience easier. II. SERVICE A little slow, especially to order, get our drinks, and checks. Not like we were in a rush, but it was noticeable. I have a feeling they're low staffed so please be gracious with your waitress. She had someone shadowing to add to her stresses. The accommodating manager, striking up conversation was an interesting quirk. She grabbed our drinks after noticing our extended wait. Nice little checks and balances. III. QUALITY The trout was cooked perfectly ~ tender. We never had a Beef Wellington to compare as a baseline, but Petite Violette's was an explosion of flavor and texture. I highly recommend! Also recommended the French Onion Soup..! It's not overloaded with salt like most restaurants fail to do. Besides, if you like salty soup, you could always add more. IV. CAPACITY Fair amount of available seating for a Friday evening, but it seemed to fill up as the night went on. We notice the demographic of people here was mainly those over 50 years old."
