Boston | La Voile, an old French restaurant

🇫🇷 La Voile: A Stellar French Spot on Newbury Street—Restaurant Week Gem Nestled on Newbury Street, this popular French bistro shines during Boston’s Restaurant Week. The prix-fixe menu is surprisingly generous, packing in crowd-pleasers that make it easy to see why it’s a local favorite. Post-shopping pitstop? Perfect. Date night? Even better. 🌟 Standout Dishes from the Restaurant Week Menu Foie Gras Terrine 🐦 • We came for foie gras, and while the menu skipped the seared version, this terrine didn’t disappoint. Served with crisp, toasted bread and a bright apple-strawberry compote, the richness of the foie gras is balanced beautifully—creamy, indulgent, and never cloying. Beet Salad 🎃 • Fresh, vibrant, and nutty—roasted beets tossed with crunchy nuts and tangy goat cheese (a heads-up: skip if you’re not a fan of that tang). Light enough to start, but flavorful enough to feel special. Duck Confit 🦆 • Juicy, tender duck with a crackling, crispy skin—classic French comfort done right. The side? Gratin dauphinois (layered potatoes baked in cream), rich and buttery, with that perfect "melt-in-your-mouth" texture. Boeuf Bourguignon 🥩 • A showstopper: Slow-braised beef shoulder in a fragrant red wine sauce, so tender it shreds with a fork. The sauce is deep, savory, and begging to be sopped up with bread. Served with creamy, buttery mashed potatoes—pure comfort. Poached Pear 🍐 • Disappointed we missed the napoleon? This made up for it. A tender, wine-poached pear with a hint of spice, served with light cream—elegant, not too sweet, and a perfect finish. Raspberry Opera Cake 🎂 • Dense, moist, and layered with coffee and raspberry—surprisingly not overly sweet. A grown-up dessert that pairs perfectly with a post-meal coffee. 📍 Why It Works Vibe: Classic French bistro charm—warm lighting, cozy booths, and a bustling energy that feels both elegant and approachable. Value: Restaurant Week menu is a steal, but we’re already planning a return for la carte (that seared foie gras is calling). Location: 261 Newbury St—ideal for post-shopping meals or pre-theater bites. #BostonFrench #RestaurantWeekWins #NewburyStreetEats #DateNight
