I wish I could rate more than 5 stars. One of the most delicious and authentic vietnamese cusines as a high-end restaurant. The banh cuon and banh uot were extremely delicious and the pecking duck was tender, and the ginger sauce was both salty and sweet. Definitely worth the money; it’s hard to find high-end restaurants worth their value
Right off of Michigan Ave, I simply love this place. Every single menu item ordered has been phenomenal. The patio seating / atmosphere is amazing (the inside leaves a bit to be desired) as well as the service. Try the short ribs, any curry, and absolutely get the lychee martini.
Great food and a wonderful atmosphere. We were there over Thanksgiving and they were busier than usual. Reservations would have been appropriate in this case, as we ended up in the bar instead of the dining room. other than seating (our fault), it was wonderful.
We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary at Le Colonial. The service was impeccable. Knowing it was our anniversary, they gave us the best seat in the house. Of course the food and drink was perfect. We were treated with the utmost hospitality. I look forward to dining here again next time we are in town. Phenomenal atmosphere.
