Le Colonial Chicago — trusted vietnamese in Gold Coast. Modern space that photographs well but eats even better. The bar is worth the visit on its own. Mike: "The shrimp roll was packed with fresh veggies that blended perfectly for a refreshing, bright flavor" [$$$]

When I had their spicy chicken soup with coconut, the first thing I did is going and booking the lunch for the next day while we are in Chicago and while they had availability! Amazing food. Tuna tartar was also special.

This Vietnamese fine dining restaurant is worth experiencing. The service is polite, the table is tidy. The airy dining room is fashionable. We ordered Goi Ga, Bahn Uot, Ca Bam and Bo Luc Lac. All were carefully prepared and tasted deep. I would visit again.

Cha Gio, the sesame beef rolls, and the pork ribs are all outstanding appetizers. And don’t sleep on the Golden Saigon dessert - it’s probably the best dessert I’ve ever had. It was absolutely incredible, and my husband and I always have to order one each.

Great place, and friendly staff. Quick service, and great food. You get a lot of food for the money. The atmosphere is great, and light. Worth every penny.

Amazing spot for dinner not to be missed. Even with a reservation seating can be delayed because no one ever wants to leave.

Class class class. I’m so glad my husband and I were wandering by hungry yesterday afternoon and he spotted the menu outside. We went upstairs, sat at the bar, and had an incredible late lunch. Unique cocktails (I’ll have 4 lychee cocktails, thank you). Huge shoutout to bartender JT who was so fun to hang out with, helpful with the menu, and attentive. Best meal we had in Chicago.
