Staff were kind and fun to be with. It was new year s eve but they were not cranky at all considering that we were one of the last diners to leave. Taste of the cuisine were close to authentic. Food temp and presentation were great :) they would answer our questions if there were allergens with the dishes. Nice interiors.

For your next weekend food trip in Tagaytay, don't miss Cafe Voi La. Obvious with their Asian inspired place, well they serve Asian dishes like Thai, Vietnamese and Malaysian. We tried their Satay sampler, Nasi goreng and Vietnamese spring rolls which brings memories of my Asian trip. But then of course they also have pinoy favs like bulalo, Kare-kare and crispy pata to name a few. Without a doubt anyone who visits the place will surely come back... which I will surely do.

Beautiful dining space, average dining experience.

The restaurant has beautiful interiors, rustic and elegant design elements. However, food and service didn't match the visuals.

Food is average. Nothing special. We ordered peanut butter pancake ang Voi la breakfast. You can probably replicate both without much effort as there's nothing outstanding on both these breakfast options.

Note: they'll automatically give you bottled water, but will not inform you that it is not free. I thought it was a nice touch to at least minimize possible contamination thru service water, but nope. Not the case.

Service is so-so. Took at least one 30 minutes for frying eggs, sausage and bacon. Not sure why, as the restaurant isn't packed with diners. Getting the bill also took at least 10 minutes. Had to follow thrice to get the bill.

I saw one table beside us that were cleared by bare hands of the staff - he used his hands to dust off the crumbs on the table mat, then, put in a new set of utensils and bottled water. That's it. No attempt to wipe or disinfect the table.

If not for the ambience, i would've rated this restaurant a 1.

Colorful cafe with good food. Pricey, as their salted caramel cheesecake slice is P275. That's their best seller, albeit I remember it to be better last time I was here. This time, the cheesecake didn't give me that overwhelmed feeling. It wasn't as firm as I remeber it to be. Or perhaps, other cheesecakes I've recently tasted are now better than this. Still, a good place to visit, if you're in the area. Very instagtam-able.

For someone who loves to venture different foods, Cafe Voila is above my expectation. My fiance and I had lunch here and their Kare Kare was, by far, the best we have ever tasted. In fact, their's is our basis of a good-tasting and authentic Kare Kare. The ambiance is so homey and tranquil. Will definitely go back here :)

Great atmosphere, attentive service, but the food is hit and miss. I suppose it depends on who is working in the kitchen.

The first time I ate there I ordered the Pad Thai. It was beautifully presented and the flavors were delicate and delicious. I went back today and ordered the Pad Thai again. This time the presentation was sloppy and it had so much fish sauce in it that I couldn't taste anything else. I gave up on it after a few bites and left the rest.

I really hope they can sort out the consistency issue. It's a very nice restaurant in a beautiful location.

If you ask me, it would be better to visit in the late afternoon (after sunset). The place comes to life with their colorful lanterns.

Food is great- a little bit on the pricey side but they taste good and you pay for the dining experience so we didn't mind.

We enjoyed the Kare-kare it has a slight twist but we just couldn't describe it. Up for you to discover.

Th pesto pasta, according to my brother-in-law, is better that the ones he sampled in Canada before. I'm not much of a pesto girl but I liked it.

Coffee is decent. Their salted caramel cheesecake is heavenly.

Exceptional food! The cake is so delicious! Staffs are kind and they follow health protocol! Great ambience for a romantic dinner - a perfect match for the Tagaytay cool weather. Their lanterns put the entire place in a relaxing mode so make to be there in dusk.

Pricey but it so good you can't resist to return for more.

Place is nice and lovely but the food we ordered were really off. Tom yum soup was not hot nor sour but rather bland. The other one we've ordered, the signature Voila specialty curry, tasted too sweet and not spicy at all. Hope they fix this.

Poor service. Waiters unaware of available orders. Waiting time takes a verryyy long time. I ordered omelette and it took almost 40minutes. I did not get a good experience and will never come back. I will not recommend this place.
