excellent place, Alex's food and wine recommendations were perfect. He created a beautiful experience for my wife and I
One of our favorite places to have dinner at the River Oaks District. Chloe was our charming waitress who gave us just the right amount of attention.
As always great
Cocktail getting better too
The lunch service was spot on. Table service was timely, polite and attentive without hovering.
Nu is the best
Great restaurant, wonderful fusion cuisine, recommend for sure
Amazing as usual! This time their Valentine's day special dinner menu was delicious! Their Lobster Bisque and the tuna tartare was out of this world. And the lamb chops just melt in your mouth. Staff was super nice like usual.
food is amazing, as well as service and overall vibe. great date spot. go here.
Wonderful food, decor was nice with tropical accents. The staff was quick and attentive
It was friendly service and good food
Food was excellent - the prix fixe menu was thoughtful and pairings were delicious and inventive. While the wine menu is limited, the cocktails were amazing. Overall we had a lovely dinner and will come again.
Great return visit to Le Colonial. Food remains wonderful, and service exceptional.
It was great!
Big confusion at the door. We gave out reservation name and told to wait. 20 minutes later we had to ask where our table was. First hostess never checked us in never snapped to us waiting and gave our reservation away! Hostesses were incredibly confused
Outside was so nice... food was delicious
Another great date spot. and prices are very reasonable. good flavor and ambiance.
Creative, delicious and reliably good.
Un lugar con un ambiente muy bonito. La comida muy buena y los platos de buen tamaño. Servicio excelente.
Houston has a special restaurant called the Le Colonial. If you want something fresh clean and safe to dine give this place try. The staff is friendly and Trevor the wine expert is truly a joy to experience. My family has always enjoyed the options on the menu. A five star treat.
Incredible all the way around
Stephen always a pleasure and a super waiter. Food was spectacular as usual.
Wasn’t happy with the service and the food... big disappointment this time
The food and service were absolutely fantastic. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.
Wait time between servings was ridiculous and at the end the waitress forgot to bring a dessert so we sit there an extra 20 minutes waiting on dessert and check
Great for lunch
Horrible service! Not sure what was going on that day. Very disappointing.
Eugene’s service is amazing - he always goes above and beyond. We love so many items on the menu here, our favorites being: firecracker beef, beef noodles, spicy chicken soup, brussel sprouts, spicy chicken stir fry, shaking beef, and the signature fried rice. Their creme brulee is wonderful as well!
Always great food and great service. One of our favorite spots in Houston.
Hostess placed us at an awful table next to a huge loud family with multiple children who would not even stay in their seats... asked our waiter to tell her we would like to be moved and she ignored the request.... I went up to the front and spoke to the manager and he moved us to a perfect table and we had a perfect evening...
Food as usual delicious. Wine prices a bit steep. Our server was very accommodating to my covid paranoid wife
Great food and service.
We Love Le Colonial!!!
Delicious as always! The sablefish was incredible. Do yourself a favor and order the Garlic Noodles add beef.
Anniversary
As always, we enjoy the food, atmosphere and service. Le colonial is one of my favorite restaurants. Food is outstanding enjoyed every bite.
Food and the ambience were wonderful, but our server was not engaged and certainly did not want to be working. Our orders were perfect however, but I attribute that primarily to the kitchen staff and the very attentive bus boys along with the people who brought our food.
The food was good but a bit pricey. The service was fine but not super attentive.
Always a favorite. Great food, service, atmosphere. Fun spot for date night or dinner with friends.
Date night with the wife. We had the firecracker beef and crispy shrimp and pork rolls for an appetizer. They were both outstanding. For the main, we split the whole crispy red snapper. The waiter removed the meat at the tableside which make it easy to eat. I would highly recommend this dish as it was excellent. Service was good but a bit slow. Will definitely go back here.
Always delicious and incredible service!
