Beautiful cozy restaurant. Friendly staff. Great service and good food! What’s not to like! Went for brunch but will definitely go again for dinner.

The Bitches Say: A. Et Voila is a true DC gem offering fresh, authentic Belgian cuisine, and its brunch is no exception. The Bitches awarded Et Voila with the Best Crepes Award of 2013!

It is the best steak frites in the city, if you appreciate real Belgium steak frites. And the owner and all staff are awesome. And the scene is vibrant and warm. Very European. Don't miss it.

Excellent and quite Authentic Belgian restaurant in The Palisades. Beef Bourgogne is outstanding and the rest of the menu is also memorable. Strong wine list. Con: Crowded, noisy, small dining area.

It's the best food I've had since I was in France. Everything was perfectly seasoned, carefully prepared and delicious. 4+++ stars!!

(a) It's a Belgian place, not French; (b) pretty decent wine list and beer selection: (c) Grandma’s Almond Cream Pear Tart is ABSOLUTELY delicious!

Every neighborhood deserves an Et Voila!, a source of Belgian steamed mussels and beer-based beef stew that is priced for regular workdays.

Foie Gras, mussels, and natural wine...cozy atmosphere and friendly staff!

A neighborhood restaurant that worth the drive for Chef Claudio Pirollo's Belgian and French-inspired bistro fare. [Eater 38 Member]

For something earthy, go for the citrusy Hoegaarden ice cream with cherry-infused Kasteel Rouge brown ale; if you like sweet and spicy you might like the fruity and fizzy Lindemann's Read more

Just got back from Et Voila, excellent meal! Wife had mussels pastis, I the traditional Belgian beef stew. Staff, food and over all experience was great.

Sampled desserts here with Sam one afternoon. The pear torte was perfect. Will be back again soon to try more. Delicious.

Here’s a bistro in the classic sense, with French and Belgian cooking that evokes nostalgia for Europe’s old cafes.

For dessert, order the macarons au citron fourré à la crème de citron, a lemon macaron filled with lemon curd.
