This restaurant came highly recommended by a local business partner. We stopped in for lunch and I went with thier lunch special. For $18 you can choose an appetizer, entree, and dessert. Great chance to try thier menu. I ordered Escargot, Beef Burgundy, Creme Brulee. Escargot was flavorful and not overly salted. I had never tried Beef Burgundy and it's not really my thing but it was good. The beef was very tender and the sauce was bold. It was like a bold stew. The Creme Brulee was delicious and the custard was not overly sweet but the top sugar had a section that tasted burnt. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing. I really like the color and decor. Waitress was friendly and attentive. Overall it was a good experience. read more

We go for Sunday brunch and dinner and we love it, the food and service are always impeccable. My only wish is that the foie Gras toast was served with a sweet/tart side to cut the richness, like sautéed apples or lingonberry jelly. I sure go every chance I get tho, and always get the foie gras. read more

Authentic French dining experience from the menu to the service. Fresh and fine dining with a warm atmosphere. Bon appetit!

I have never had anything other than a great meal here. The food is top notch and creative. The servers are knowledgeable and attentive. The overall vibe is calm and relaxing. If you are looking for French food this is the place. read more

Great food and service. I had a blast and enjoyed the ambiance. I will come back for sure. Get the escargot and pate.

Not only is the food here exemplaire but I think they have the best service in town. They have taken COVID precautions from the beginning before they were forced and it's Crystal clear they care about the staff and their clientele. Did you know they have special ovens to make their bread just like you'd get it in Paris? That's true! They have the BEST bread and everything on your plate is going to be incredible. I could go on and on. I wish they had lunch on more days because their Croque Madame/Monsieur is to-die-for. I strongly recommend this restaurant for fine dining, a special occasion, or if you're in the mood for fantastic authentic French food. read more

We had a delicious call in, drive by, pick up dinner! The Boeuf Bourguignon, Tarte Flambee, chocolate mousse and the créme bruleé... each entree was plenty to share.. the Tarte was cooked at home as suggested by the staff, and it was just as yummy! Thanks for cooking! read more

Excellent. We took a party of six to the restaurant. The food was true to it's French heritage and was delicious. The waitress was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We had hd a great time and will be returning. read more

First visit for us. We were seated in the main front dining area. Tables are a bit close to each other for my comfort. Almost seemed as if we were dining with our neighboring tables, but once we ordered it didn't seem like a big deal. I enjoyed the bread that they bring out before your meal. Basic baguette bread but good! I also had a cup of the French onion soup which was boiling hot so it was hard to wait for it to cool down to eat. It was delicious though!! I couldn't decide which sauce to get for the filet I ordered. I was in between the peppercorn sauce and the blue cheese sauce, so the waitress was kind enough to offer to bring both out on the side which was nice. The filet was good but would have been better if it were cooked as ordered. I've always been a medium-rare gal, but this one came out closer to rare as it was a bit "chewy" which detracted from the tenderness I had hoped for. I've never had luck sending a steak back as it usually comes back more medium, so I chose to stick with it. I enjoyed both sauces but the peppercorn for me was best. Service was fantastic and cozy atmosphere. It was a bit out of the way for us so unsure if it will be a place that we would return. read more

This place is amazing! Each time my husband and I eat here we are SO pleased with everything we order! There has never been something we didn't think was delicious. We can't even pick a favorite because it's all so good. The apricot cranberry chutney with baked brie on baguette may be the most delicious appetizer I've ever eaten. The owner, Winston, comes out and visits with patrons and is extremely kind and humble. We love him. All the dishes he creates are mouthwatering!! We've moved to Kansas City now but we still make sure we come and eat at Le Voltaire whenever we're back in Omaha. read more

Love this place! Authentic cuisine. Great staff. Good food selections. Ambiance is amazing. Wine list is extensive. And the food is off the hook! Want some excellent French food out West? Look no further than Le Voltaire. read more

We did the NYE dinner. Food was average as was the service. Disappointed based on the price. Felt like they sacrificed quality over fitting too many people read more

We've been to LV several times over the years, and it's consistently good. Service is always prompt and attentive, the wine list is excellent, and the kitchen serves up some top-notch food, which we always enjoy. For anyone saying that there's nothing worth eating west of I-680, I give you Le Voltaire. read more

Overall my experience with French cuisine restaurant was great! I absolutely loved their salad. Snail dish was great, wish the cheese on top of French onion soup was a little more boiled in terms of texture, I like them much crispier. The fish dish was alright, felt like it was more of a soup dish, seafood didn't taste that fresh. I love their homemade sausage with duck (a bit salty for me), balanced with broccolini. They have a great wine selection as well!! read more

Lovely restaurant with a core service team that has been there for years through multiple owners. Love the spirit, menu and quality that has persisted read more

We went for Easter brunch and loved it, good choices for kids too which is important to us. We will be back to support the new owners!

Took my wife there last week for a date night. Had been there once before. It was a delicious experience. Food took close to an hour coming out of the kitchen while our server was highly intoxicated and full of himself. Seeing how this establishment runs it's operation and what they allow on their watch is enough for me not to go back. Highly disappointed. read more

With two medium size rooms and drop ceilings in the corner of a strip mall in Western Omaha, Le Voltaire does not exactly ooze sophistication. What it lacks in charm is compensated for by the friendly service, quality food, and fair prices. Our server never told us her name, but she was very nice and attentive considering it was a Friday night and the place was fully-booked, always a good sign. It took our server 10-15 minutes to tell me she could not find our first choice of wine, a French Syrah, so I had to make another choice. With bottles of wine starting at $26, I found an excellent value in the Château Sainte Eulalie, Plaisir d'Eulalie, Minervois 2014 at just $27. It was a deep, medium-bodied red (40% Carignan, 35% Syrah, 25% Grenache) with hints of dark berries and spices that complimented my beef main course very nicely. For our appetizers we had the Brie Josette ($8.95), baked brie served on toast with an apricot-cranberry chutney, and the gratin aux fruits de mer (seafood gratin - $10.95), bay scallops, shrimp and mussels in a béchamel sauce covered with cheese and broiled. The baked brie and chutney came on six small slices of their toasted baguette and while not the greatest appetizer I have ever had, it was an interesting and tasty balance between sweet and savory. My seafood gratin was a tad on the small side, but creamy and delicious with small chunks of seafood that balanced well with the more savory baked cheese topping. Our main courses consisted of moules frites façon Jacques Brel ($17.95), 20 ounces of fresh mussels in a Lucky Bucket beer and bacon broth served with French fries, and boeuf Bourguignon ($18.95), a beef stew simmered in red (Burgundy, hence the name) wine, with carrots, mushrooms and onions accompanied by whipped potatoes. The mussels were plentiful and yummy, balanced well by the big chunks of bacon in a beer broth. My beef stew was a bit light on beef, but what was there was tender and delicious. The burgundy-based sauce was very well done and the whipped potatoes creamy just like they should be. The only things that detracted from the experience (and my rating) were small details, but important ones. First, in a restaurant where you drop $100+ for a meal for two, there should be tablecloths. There were none. Second, when I made our reservation (for my wife's birthday) through OpenTable, I specifically requested a "special dessert", but her special day was never even acknowledged. We left without a formal celebration or a sweet ending to our meal. The atmosphere adequate, the service friendly and efficient, the food tasty, and the prices fair, Le Voltaire is an excellent choice if you are craving French cuisine and an exceptional value and a pleasant surprise in the Midwest where quality, gourmet cuisine is a rarity.

Excellent authentic French food with depth of flavors, satisfying tastes and presentation. Very good service, charming atmosphere. A gem in west Omaha! read more

Wow. This is one of the best meals I've had! Do yourself a favor and come here - order anything and you'll be so satisfied. We got the Bri and the flaffel appetizers. They were both delicious. I preferred the brie as it had apricot and cranberry chutney. For dinner I got the coco van and o my lanta! It was so delicious. The chicken was falling off the bone and so well seasoned - the veg was tender and amazing. The hubs had the fillet with bourbon peppercorn sauce which was beyond amazing. We will be coming back next time we are in town! read more

Very enjoyable dinner at Le Voltaire, our third visit in a year. Impeccable service from Elizabeth, who is a pro. Friendly and attentive yet unobtrusive at the same time. But we are there mainly for the food. My girlfriend had french onion soup. While it could have used a touch more broth, it was nonetheless delicious. I had duck breast, girlfriend had salmon. Both were excellent. While I had my eye on chocolate mousse, we were too full for dessert. We felt good about the world after our interlude at Le Voltaire. read more

GREAT service, GREAT food and a GREAT time. We were greeted and seated promptly and the server was terrific. She was very knowledgeable of the menu and checked in JUST enough to keep the meal moving without being intrusive. As for the meal, we shared the foie gras and the salmon pate. The breads for both were nice accompaniments to allow the foie gras and pate to shine through. Both were fresh and some of the best I have ever had. Main course wise, I had the duck confit and my dining partner had the quail special. Both birds were cooked to perfection with just enough crispness without drying out the birds. The brussel sprouts on the side were well seasoned and tasted nice on their own. For dessert we both had the chocolate bread pudding with raspberry/apricot ice cream. Home run on this dish as the flavors exploded and melded together so wonderfully. It was a perfect ending to a great meal. This was a true fine dining experience - approximately 2 hours of relaxing food and visiting. We never felt rushed and the server was very gracious on my questions regarding the chef and restaurant in general. The tables were far enough apart that conversations didn't blend together and the restaurant definitely caters more to couples based on the layout (though there were a couple of larger parties there). read more

We came for our anniversary this time and it did not disappoint. The service was perfect and the food better than most I had in Paris. I can not recommend the restaurant enough. I would like to especially commend our waiter Sean who took care of us like the family you want to invite on the holidays. read more

This is by far my favorite "fancy" restaurant in town. And it's really not that expensive. First of all, we've only been twice, six months apart, and we happened to get the same waitress and she remembered us. That's fantastic service. Second, the food is amazing. What you want is the $35 meal deal ($35 for an appetizer, salad, meal, and dessert). You want the crab cake appetizer, beef stew meal, and creme brulee dessert. The salad, unfortunately, is the only part I'm not a fan of, just because of the type of lettuce. My wife loves the chocolate mousse dessert, but be warned, it's insanely rich and thick. Not for the faint-of-heart. Whatever you get, if you enjoyed it, remember to send a 6-pack to the kitchen! (The option is on the dessert menu!) read more

We went with our monthly dinner group. The staff was friendly and competent, but it took a loooong time to get our meal. We didn't get our meal until 80 minutes after we sat down. We went through a lot of the bread waiting on it. I had the Flétan poché, salsa de crevettes-fenouil, tagliatelle crème de whisky. Mostly because it was the only thing with something in it that I like (shrimp). I won't make that mistake again, as the flounder totally covered up the taste of the little bit of shrimp inside it. Not being much of a wine drinker, I ordered a mixed drink called Noir something or other - it was excellent! read more

While I am not sure how anxious I would be to drive back out to 156th & Dodge to eat here I must say it was delicious. A group of four went for lunch today. We ordered the steak and frites, goat cheese salad, grilled lamb & the tartines parisiennes. Everyone enjoyed their meal. The grilled lamb was mine and it was probably the best (most tender) lamb I have ever had. I ordered escargot with it (pick 2 lunch) and they were wonderful as well. We had no real complaints and the portion sizes were perfect. read more

AMAZING!!! As usual. We only go a few times a year but this place is the best for French cuisine! Creme brule on delicious as usual... a must! The Filet Mignon with blue cheese sauce is to die for! The seafood plate was out of this work with the crab and lobster risotto... oiiiuuu! Thanks Chef!! For always on point. read more

We love this place. As a self proclaimed Francophile I cannot figure out why it took me so long to try this place out, but just this last year we tried it and we've been back so many times I can't count. We love the wine selection. And the specials are always amazing. It's hard to pick a favorite, but to name a few specials the lamb cheeks, the monkfish, the filets and that's just one course. But in the literal end of the meal is where I escape. I thought I would never be able to try another dessert after their crème brûlée, but the chocolate mousse with a glass of Porte transport me. The pool not problem is trying to find other places to eat now. read more

Called to order french onion soup for my wife. They said cup or bowl and I said bowl. Get home poor it into a soup bowl and this is when I became dissapointed. A bowl of soup should be the amount that would fit in a bowl especially for 6+ dollars. It tasted great though. read more

I returned to Le Voltaire last night for dinner and was impressed as always. I had the pheasant special which was served with a remarkable sauce and mashed potatoes. Pheasant can be a tough bird but they managed to keep it juicy and flavorful. Overall, this is still 5 star restaurant and I'm hoping to come back soon. read more

Thank you to Le Voltaire for doing an excellent job adjusting to the challenges of Covid. I appreciate that your employees are masked and obviously making every effort to maintain cleanliness. The new takeout menu is wonderful and has lots of options for almost everyone. I enjoy the pasta dishes in particular. I look forward to trying the pizza some Friday or Saturday night. You especially cannot go wrong with their desserts and French onion soup. They also offer curbside service, which is the only thing from this period in time that I hope sticks with us. read more
