Reviews for Le Colonial in Atlanta, GA
As a Vietnamese person, I was a little skeptical about trying this place at first since I knew going into it I might not... experience authentic Vietnamese cuisine. I was pleasantly surprised. I came here for a birthday dinner and it was a greatexperience. I love the fact that they have a dress code because the slightly formal wear gives a sophisticated vibe. I love thedecor; it reminds me of a restaurant you can find in Vietnam with tropical plants and open dining rooms. The food was absolutelystunning and tasty. Although the food was more of a fusion, the cha gio and nuoc cham(dipping sauce) that came with it wasactually really tasty. The drinks were sweet and well. My purple drink with coconut cream tastes just like ube. It was my firsttime ordering lamb shank and it was the perfect temperature and tangy flavor. At the end of the course, they brought out acrème brûlée was that perfect. All in all, we had a wonderful dinner and I would totally recommend this spot for nice datenight or family dinner Read more
Decided to try this place because of the fried whole snapper. The ambience was charming and intimate. The drinks options were... unconventional but both visually and tastefully good. The snapper was cooked perfectly, but underwhelming to be the highlight ofthe menu and priced well over $100. The appetizers and side dishes were good and the service was excellent. Gave it a 4 becauseoverall I enjoyed the experience. Read more
My friend and I went on a Saturday evening to celebrate his birthday and we had a great experience. It started with Jordan at... the bar and the service from Chris at our table. Their customer service exceeded our expectations and it was definitely worththe $300+ I spent. The vibe was good and chile and the ambience, very nice and beautiful. The food… after eating some of hismarket price Snapper, then eating my salmon I was disappointed because the salmon (in our opinions) lacked flavor but EVERYTHINGelse was delicious and worth the visit. I will be back and highly recommend. Read more
What a neat set up in the Buckhead Village. Self parking and valet available. Cute decoration and set up. A really great wine... list. We had to try so many items with nothing to disappoint. Salads, sides of brussel sprouts and appetizers of egg roles,and tuna and the list went on. Everyone enjoyed the meal. There were 8 of us and they had several seating options to make thissize group work nicely. Read more
I’ve been going to this place for about 3 years now, somehow I missed leaving a review, here it is ???? ????????... Entrance They have a private elevator, but unfortunately it breaks down a lot, but when it works it’s really nice. Thehostess greeters are pleasant enough… The ambiance is inviting, soft lighting, white table cloth, real flowers on the table,very nice touch. They have a wonderful veranda with lots of open windows where you feel the beautiful breeze from outside andcan hear the hustle and bustle of the city down below. They also have heaters when it’s a little cooler you can still enjoythe outdoor weather, which is perfect during these crazy Covid times. ?????????? Service (wait staff) Of all the times that Ihave come here I have never once had bad service, the wait staff is extremely knowledgeable, extremely professional, and they goabove and beyond to make your experience the best. They are very allergy friendly and will go out of their way to make sureyour dish is prepared in a way where it doesn’t put you at risk. ?????????? The Food I would give them 10 stars if I couldfor the food, it is exceptionally unique but not crazy. It is your taste buds on steroids! Every dish is prepared with theultimate care and the presentation artistic, a work of art. This is a great spot for those of us that have a dairy allergy asonly two dishes on the menu contain dairy and if you choose so, you can skip it and they can substitute to make it dairy free.And just because every dish is not full of cheese and butter and cream believe me you’re not missing anything it is exceptional!! ?????? Value The prices are quite high, but in my opinion because the food is so good, we’ll prepared & service isexceptional, it’s worth it! If it’s out of your budget, go enjoy one drink each and a couple of appetizers, you won’t bedisappointed. ???????? Bathroom and cleanliness The bathroom is beautiful & elegant. I gave them 4 stars because they don’thave a shelf Read more
First of all, the space is beautiful. The staff was very nice. Service was slow (but understandable in current times). We had a... party of 8 and a few things were forgotten. The food was good but not great and the pricing was outrageous. I have no problempaying for fine dinning, good service and good food and drinks but this was ridiculous. You’re paying for the atmosphere andthe location in Buckhead Village (basically helping cover the rent). We had the whole snapper and A) I’ve had better B) I’membarrassed by what we were charged for the fish. We know better than to order at “Market Price” without asking what thatprice is, so our bad. On a good note, the desserts were excellent. It was a decent experience but I would not go back,especially when there are restaurants in town that do what they are trying to do at Le Colonial Atlanta better. Read more
Excellent service, food and ambience. Le Colonial is now one of my favorite restaurants in Atlanta. The decor is stunning. In... addition to the dining room, there is a large bar/lounge in the back. We ordered a salad (gorgeous - see photos), pan searedchicken dumplings, spicy chicken stir fry and the Hanoi beef noodle soup. All were flavor packed and delicious. I'm on a lowsodium diet and they accommodated my needs expertly, making sure my dish wasn't bland. We will definitely be back! Read more
Beautiful design and nice decor inside along with all the art and pictures. The shutter window and banana leaf tree make you... feel like you’re sitting back in the country again. The staffs are well dressed and polite. Food was decent but not great .The only thing that stood out was the egg rolls with the authentic dipping fish sauce and the Vietnamese ice coffee. Thelemongrass chicken lacks that lemongrass and flavor. The beef noodle soup bowl was tiny and lack the rich authentic broth alongwith many missing ingredients inside. Needs improvement here to make it more authentic which it lacks. Read more
