    Last night was my third dinner at Le Colonial in the last five months, and my experience each time has been remarkably consistent. Great food, great ambiance, and, within the dining room, exceptionally good service. Only negative each of three times has been the staff at the front desk just off the elevator: disinterested, immature, aloof, and more attentive to cell phones than the customers before them. It seems unlikely that I’ve experienced the same two staffers at that station three separate times over five months; regardless, the front-of-the-house staff needs training. But after two to three irritating minutes upon arrival, the remainder of the Le Colonial experience was outstanding, and I will continue to go back.

    Every morsel was delicious. Ordered Red Snapper. a salad was included, and we added chicken fried rice . Our server (Francisco) was extremely attentive and offered suggestions as we made our food choices. We celebrated a friend’s birthday and every part of the evening was delightful.

    I’ve been to the one in Atlanta and my daughter gave me an early Mother’s day gift. My husband and I throughly enjoyed the Suon Nuong, Cha Gio, Tom Xao Sate, Com Chien Tom. Everything was fabulous, will definitely go back next month for my birthday and Father’s Day!
