Wait staff attentive; waiter rattled off the lengthy list of specials without referring to notes. The portions were too big and if given smaller portions the price might be lower? I had the pasta and thought it was average. Apparently, most reviewers found this restaurant truly great! I wouldn't return. Thought the seating was tight and could hear the adjoining... more

Chef Vola is clearly more than just a place to eat. It's a cult classic that is known primarily through word of mouth. People mention the restaurant in the basement, the place where you have to know someone to get in, the restaurant with no sign in front, etc. Go to their website and you're told: no information here...this is... more

I took my boyfiend here for his birthday. From the start, dinner at Chef Vola's came with mystery: I had to hunt a bit for their phone number; when I called for a reservation I had to answer at least 5 questions about how I had learned of the restaurant and who recommended it to me; finding it was fun... more

After hearing from friends what a great place this was I was a little skeptical and frankly a little apprehensive. Great expectations...so to speak. Well, Chef Vola did not disappoint. The waitstaff was completely attentive and the food was excellent. You could tell that everything was 100% fresh. The portions were WAY TOO MUCH for one person and you would... more

Chef Vola's is the best restaurant around -- yes it is small -- the charm of it all -- the kids work there, mom makes the desserts and it is just the ambience -- why go to the Casino pay tons of money and have just average food, I actually should not be writing this review, I do not want... more

Took forever to get a reservation. We heard such wonderful things about this restaurant. The restaurant was very small but the staff was excellent. The specials were recited to us by (we think the owner or his son). While we were deciding what to order, we noticed it was byob. We ere not informed of t his during the reservation.... more

I had done my research this time, and Chef Vola rewarded my 3 companions and I with an "out of this world" superior meal and warm atmosphere. I have never had better food in my life! Everything is as fresh tasting as you can get. The crispy green beans in their Tuscan salad- tasted like they were just picked. The... more
