La Voile is a pleasant restaurant nestled right beside the lake and small harbour in Evian. The terrace has large parasols and shading which was perfect in the summer heat for al fresco lunching. You can just sit and admire the views and the ducks, swans, geese all going about their business, whilst enjoying their speciality of lake perch with chips and tartare sauce. A very simple but enjoyable lunch with a nice salad on the side. €26 for the dish isn't cheap, but much better value than Geneva and plenty of perch filets on the plate. There appeared to be plenty of other choices on an extensive menu as well as a whole host of ice cream based puddings. Excellent service.Enjoyable
We went there several times and really enjoyed the wonderful surroundings. You sit over-looking Lake Geneva with ducks, grebe, swans and even fish bobbing about between the moored boats. It is attractively decorated with flowering plants and has sun shades to protect from the hot sunshine when needed. It 's a place for having coffee, meals, ice-creams, drinks or tea. Every day there is 'special ' which is very good value. We were happy with the service we received and many of the the staff speak English although we did practise our French. It does get busy.
On a sunny day many restaurants in Evian are shaded la voile has full sun and is on the lac so that’s the main reason to come here. Food was not terrific quite basic, not much flair or attempt at presentation. Waiters were quite good I saw some negative comments on other reviews but in April 2019 the waiters were hospitable and humorous. Oh my wife’s spritz was flat. Okay for a one off. I don’t think this place would have repeat or regular visitors!
Very busy restaurant with most tables booked by large groups of French families. We were lucky to get one of the last tables for 2 on Sunday. Sat under the shade of the canopy, enjoying the view of the port. Friendly quick service. We both ordered fillet de beouf en moutard which was very tasty. Nice spot if you can get a table.

Delicious Fliet de perche, desserts Excellent again prices are very fair and great waterfront locations Wait staff is friendly and fun too fair prices limited beer options...
Jamais déçus, une valeur sûre, un service de qualité, servi avec le sourire et toujours autant de convivialité. Des assiettes copieuses, un peu trop pour moi, bref depuis de nombreuses années, le cadre reste inchangé, vue sur le leman, l'équipe vous accueille avec le sourire et tant de gentillesse. Allez y les yeux fermés.
The basic ingredients are fine, but there is no cuisine. The Rice accompanying the fine lambshops was uncooked, fries instead, could be standard anywhere, vegetables were just plain carrots, the 2 options of wine by the glass were totally basic. In short, the setting is the thing. Best to fo for the salads.
I was expecting to eat Filet de perche of Leman lake, as it was on the menu. But, it was not available. It was not high season, so that they might no buy it. I ate an imported perche. Book a table now
The perch nets were perfect and well accompanied. not could eat on the terrace because of bad weather, but everything was perfect, reception, service and dishes
that is a typical tourist destination. quality moderate, portion small and service ok. price too high. no place for the second time.
