    We normally love Volare but our experience on 12/21/24 was unenjoyable. We were crammed like sardines into the room to the right of the entrance. All servers were attempting to wait on tables and serve food in and out of a tiny walkway. They were all bumping into each other and my chair was bumped into constantly and trays of food were lifted over my head. Our server had a terrible time keeping her attention as the atmosphere was chaotic. Not what you expect for a $500 dining experience.

    We loved the Chilean Sea Bass and one of the specials - the Humphead Snapper. The scallops were a must for an appetizer and it was the perfect amount of food for two. I cannot wait to go back soon!

    Great food. It was hot. It was well timed. It was delicious. Short ribs and shrimp with pasta. Great selections. Food and wine. Attentive employees. Sincerely friendly. Is there anything you can do about the acoustics? Very difficult to converse without really yelling. If I owned the facility, I would seek professional help with sound dampening.
