Colette bar & bistroA worry about seatingEven though we had reservations, my daughter and I were seated at one of the banquet seat tables, on the "curve". Because she went in a few minutes ahead of me, and was therefore already seated when I arrived, I said nothing about finding a more private or comfortable table. My daughter is of mixed race, and I apologize but, my first thought when I arrived was if we would have been given a more comfortable spot if I had gone in first.
The service was excellent, the food delicious, the waitress charming.
Thank you.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Mother's Day buffet wasThe Mother's Day buffet was extraordinary. Perfect portion sizes made tasting a wide variety of foods easy, and generous servings of favorites (the lamb, the shrimp, the roast beef) was fabulous. My father also enjoyed all three varieties of salmon, and the extra touch of delivered flowers at the table (through Open Table's vendor) made the event special for Mom and Grandma.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMgood breakfast at L'Hotel SofitelWe had a good breakfast for 4 for $100. The goat cheese omelets were excellent. Freshly baked bread. We had a very competent waitress.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMVery surprisedWe had to make a quick decision on dinner, our Mother was staying at a hotel near 100 and 494, and Collete popped up.

Excellent cuisine.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AM5-star cuisineAll four of us enjoyed our meals thoroughly. We've been to Colette many times and have never had a bad experience. Consistently great food! Chef Mark knows what he's doing. The food is delicious, and the presentation is amazing!
My husband did not like the lamb shank, but he never said anything about it until after we left the restaurant. He told me it was chewy and not soft at all. If he had complained to the kitchen, I'm sure they would have made it right.3/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat place!We love Colette. Great staff, super-attentive, service is quite European (as you'd expect) and the food is wonderful. Very French, actually quite authentic. It's a great place to settle in for dinner and take your time. My husband and I have had some wonderful conversations that migrated to the bar and into the night. Love it.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AMThis is a wonderful placeThis is a wonderful place to dine. I love going there for brunch, especially. I really like the eggs benedict. Everything is always fresh and delicious.1/6/2013 12:00:00 AM
