    Consistently a good experience. Price escalation (which is a problem for all foodservice) makes my expectations for a restaurant like Le Colonia that much more stringent. This is still an above-average experience in all regards but with the price, there are a ton of equal restaurants in the North Michigan area that might suit you better.

    Thank you for having lunch at Le Colonial and for taking the time to review your visit. We're very pleased that you enjoyed the food, ambience, and value we provide, yet share in disappointment that the service was not better for you. We strive to provide an exquisite experience all around and regret that you didn't feel that from the servers. Your feedback is extremely important to us. We hope you're able to share more details with us so we can better address our staff. Thank you again for insight.

    Great place for a birthday celebration - sharing good times and great food. Our server was very helpful from deciding which dishes, selecting a wine, and ensuring everyone had an enjoyable evening.

    Disappointing. Food was not what we are used to there. Appetizer served on stale and chewy chips (tuna crudo) and main courses much too sweet. No longer a top 5 for us in the city.
