Excellent food & ambiance. Came in at 1pm Jan 5, waiter (tall&brunette, I forgot his name) provided excellent service and constantly checked up on us. Would go again

I visited at the invitation of my friend's mother, and the quality of the food, the harmony of the flavors, and the atmosphere were all so great that it was a great restaurant to enjoy the food. The price is a bit high, but considering the atmosphere, it seems worth it.

Le Colonial was the perfect place for our small wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception with 70 guests. Pat went above and beyond helping us choose our menu and recommending an incredible florist who fit our style perfectly. On the day itself, Pat and the team were everywhere they needed to be - making sure everything ran smoothly without us having to worry about a thing. The food, the ambiance, and the service were all exceptional. Truly - a great venue for an intimate wedding.

“The ambiance of the restaurant is fantastic.”

The ambiance of the restaurant is fantastic. Each of the rooms is distinct and offers a different vibe for you to enjoy your food. I also love the homage they pay towards Vietnam’s culture in terms of art and food. The food is also fantastic. We got the yellow curry and the tofu stir fry, neither of which we could finish fully.

Wonderful experience: when we arrived, we were promptly greeted by the hostess, she acknowledged our special occasion and the ambiance was beautiful. Our server knew the menu and ingredients in the dishes quite well and was able to make special recommendations to assist someone in our group with dietary restrictions. We especially loved the starter: chicken and mushroom "ravioli" and the main dish: curry chicken with vegetables. The wine list was outstanding. Very fair prices for the quality of food and the attention to detail by staff, as well as the beautiful location.

“I stopped by because the one is NYC is gone.”

I stopped by because the one is NYC is gone. It was almost identical, from the layout to the atmosphere even the sign was the same. Even better the food in Chicago was identical to the NY one as well.

“I reserved this place about a month in advance for my big proposal.”

I reserved this place about a month in advance for my big proposal. As soon as we got in they had our spot ready for us. One of the chefs noticed that the first area we were in was a little too cramped and less intimate, I honestly think she saw that it was for my big moment when I booked the reservation so she took us to a more dim lit area where we had the luxury of sitting next to one another in a comfy seat with candles on the table. This place has a slight dress code and rightfully so, the staff was very attentive, they made sure eveytime we finished a course that we had fresh silverware and never had to ask for a refill on our beverages. The food was beyond amazing, from the drinks, to the starters to the soup all the way down to the dinner and dessert. This place made my day and my soon to be wife's day and we will definitely look forward to returning, even on a regular day this place is great and topnotch. I recommend if you like fine dining and a change of pace as far as the regular Chicago food choices, you come to this place.
