    We love Le Colonial as the food is outstanding. Great atmosphere and we sat upstairs in the bar area. The service was excellent and we were not rushed. The only challenge on a Saturday night with a later reservation the music was a dj and switched from nice background music to a loud almost festival level volume and we were no longer able to have a table conversation.

    We had wonderful service and food. It was very loud, but we had an older person who could not hear. But if loudness doesn’t bother you, everything else is top notch.
