Viola Cafe has easily stepped into my favorite restaurant in Southwest Michigan! Located in Three Oaks, Michigan, Viola is a cafe that doesn't disappoint the appetite, wallet, or vibe. This restaurant is for all facets of occasions; it is great for meetings, conversations, dates, and casual dates. I enjoyed this restaurant, and the love here is evident.

The food was a homerun! I enjoyed the Salmon Benny, Omlete, tea, and Quiche. All of the first bites hit home for me. The Hollandaise Sauce was very good, and the sauce was not broken. The chef did their thing in the kitchen!

The service was absolutely incredible! We were greeted with compassion and treated like great customers. I appreciated my cup of water being filled frequently, I enjoyed the staff going over the menu with patience, and I love the hospitality. Very accommodating staff!

The atmosphere was so cozy! I love the picture perfect setting of the restaurant, the great conversations, the neatness of the restaurant, and how the restaurant catered to all walks and ages of life. The vibe was amazing!

Viola Cafe did not dissatisfy, disappoint, or discourage. I enjoyed every part of this restaurant and love the prices for the meals. If you're in Michigan, that yourself to a lovely taste of Viola Cafe!

Wonderful little cafe. Stopped in on a slow weekday. Bring an appetite. I ordered the full biscuits and gravy. I think there were five biscuits under the half gallon of gravy they give you. Food was delicious. Service was fantastic too.

Can't say enough wonderful things about this place! As soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted with such kindness. The restaurant is adorable and has such a welcoming feeling. We got the "Fiesta before the feast" meal so I didn't have to cook before Thanksgiving, and it was SO good! Definitely a new tradition for my family and I. We also left with beautiful flowers which added to the already awesome experience. Loved everything about Viola Cafe!

What an adorable diner!! Very quaint .... but BUSY!!. We were heading back to IN after a concert and overnight stay at the casino. We decided on a local eatery instead of eating at the hotel for breakfast. We were first invited in by a cute blonde woman checking people in for the 15 minute wait. The 2 waitresses were very busy in the very small prep area in front of the kitchen window. The hand painted floral wall was very inviting and uplifting. We were both very excited to get our breakfast as everything boasts "homemade". I ordered the quiche. Today was feta and spinach. With sour dough toast. Very good but was too salty for my taste. I thought maybe because of the cheese. My husband ordered the full biscuits and gravy. It looked thick with big chunks of sausage. He said it was okay but the biscuits tasted burned. I had some with my toast and again seemed salty to me. Maybe just my taste. I would come here again if in the area. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming.

Visiting friends in town and stopped in for breakfast. Everything was excellent and prices are very reasonable. Very happy with the selection of breakfast items. The coffee was outstanding too. Portions were good and can't say enough good things. Please try them when you are in town.

The food was amazing! The restaurant is adorable. I would definitely recommend. Kristie was our server and she was so sweet. She was a delight and made our breakfast experience everything we wanted.

The coffee was fantastic, the service was very friendly and fast. I ordered the Swedish pancakes which were Amazing. Check them out if you are in the area.

What a family friendly gem!! Free egg and toast for littles served with kid sized silverware for kids with an adult meal! We enjoyed all our dishes, coffee was lovely, fruit was seasonal (YUM) and all the food was delicious! We loved the omelettes and the cinnamon French toast! Service was friendly and quick!

This is our favorite breakfast place. The staff is very friendly. The food is good and fresh. I love the eclectic and comfy decor.

Kristie gave Deineira and I great service with a smile (she had a mask on, but you can tell 😁) I got the Big Greens salad. Feeds 4 OR a single me 🤣. Amazing house dressing and very fresh veggies made this a great pick!

Food was great. Very small dinner so limited on seating but overall I would visit again for sure

We had a great visit to Viola’s! Lots of options for breakfast and lunch and very kid friendly. They have a kid special of eggs and toast that is included with an adult meal purchase. Service was so friendly and food was great! Generous portions

This place was a lovely small cafe. I had green tea and the crepe which satisfied my long standing crepe craving very well

Such a sweet little hometown cafe. The food is incredible! I would definitely recommend the Swedish pancakes and the breakfast quesadilla!

The food was cooked to perfection and our server Alexis was so kind and quick! We loved her and will definitely be coming back!

Super friendly staff with exceptional food. A must try place!

Breakfast was very tasty and waitress was very friendly and service excellent. Back in the area after 4 years and had Meria as my waitress, and let me say she is as efficient as she is breathtakingly beautiful, this girl deserves a raise.

This is our go to breakfast place in Three Oaks. The staff is always friendly and the food is always fresh and tasty. The Swedish pancakes dressed with blueberries is over the top!
