La comida fue excepcional
Wonderful service, amazing food and atmosphere
Everything was so tasty! We loved it! We were sitting outside and the ambiance was fabulous. Loved this place
The food and service were excellent.
Too many loud groups but otherwise fine
We were celebrating a Birthday. We were seated outside but our service was very very slow. It took us 3 1/2 hours for lunch and we kept having to ask for our waiter. Food was good though.
We celebrated my friend birthday there and everything was perfect!
Rewarding!
Our very favorite restaurant in Houston!!
Spring Rolls- Tuna Tartare - Spicy Shrimp Stirfry- Duck
Leche Martinis ! :))
Ambiance is fantastical. Servers are top notch.
Yummy !!
Excellent food. Service was ok. Not that they were not attentive but did wait a bunch for a fill on champagne as well as dessert. Greeting staff needs to be a bit more receiving. Again, great place for food but the staff was a little short.
Excelente comida !!!
Servicio nada bueno !!!
The appetizers were great (dumplings and spring rolls). The main course was not the most amazing but the ambiance and people watching made up for it.
Waiter was excellent didn’t interrupt conversation and was mostly invisible working behind or to the side.
Always a pleasure to dine here!
Food was outstanding and the atmosphere was perfect! Can’t wait to go back!
excellent place, Alex's food and wine recommendations were perfect. He created a beautiful experience for my wife and I
Fantastic food & they were very accommodating about our request to be seated as socially distanced as possible.
They seemed to be following safe covid guidelines, although I would recommend going earlier as it did start to get more crowded as the evening went on. I’m very covid cautious & felt comfortable.
If you have a shellfish allergy don’t go there. There is no certainty that shellfish in the form of fish sauce or otherwise will be in every entre
Good Evening, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We would love to learn more of your most recent experience. Please note that we take our allergy procedures extremely seriously and have much of our menu labelled with most allergies. Most of the items that contain fish sauce can most certainly be made without as long as we are informed. Please share with me your feedback by emailing me at martin@lecolonialhouston so that I can follow up and make it right. Thank you, Martin
Good experience aside for waiting on a table. We made reservations at 930 and we not sat until 950.
Gran lugar. Muy bonito. De cocina muy buena. Platillos de muy buen tamaño y perfectamente preparados. Excelente servicio.
It was louder than usual upstairs but the music was great. Service was the worst I’ve ever had at Le Colonial. We had to flag down our waitress every time and each time we tried to give our order she would rush us and was extremely dismissive and rude.
Food was amazing, service was great and the ambiance is also very good. Restaurant decor is beautiful
Highly recommend.
Muy buen restaurante! Deliciosa comida
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!
