"We thoroughly enjoyed the bar menu. The Vietnamese spring rolls and papaya salad were delicious, and the lychee martini was excellent too. It's a perfect way to start the evening – definitely a fantastic place in Buckhead!"
Our culinary journey at Le Colonial began with the Cha Gio Chay, a delightful appetizer that showcased a wonderful mix of flavors. Based on our server's recommendation, we sampled the Crispy Vegetable Roll filled with Taro Root, Bean Threads, Lettuce, and Fresh Herbs, and it truly surpassed our expectations. This dish was a delightful start to our evening, and the accompanying Tamarind Sauce struck the perfect balance between sweetness and tang, taking the dish to new heights.
For our second course, we chose the Sup Ga Cay, or Spicy Chicken Soup. This was a flavorful twist on the classic lemongrass coconut soup I typically order at Vietnamese restaurants. Their interpretation packed a robus...
My friend and I visited on a Saturday evening to celebrate his birthday, and we had an excellent experience. It all began with Jordan at the bar, followed by outstanding service from Chris at our table. Their customer service truly exceeded our expectations, making the $300+ I spent well worth it. The atmosphere was enjoyable, warm, and beautifully set. As for the food, while I was initially excited about the market price Snapper that my friend ordered, I found my salmon disappointing; it lacked flavor, in our opinion. However, everything else was delicious and made the trip worthwhile. I will definitely be back and highly recommend this place.
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.

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.

However, while the food was decent, it didn't quite reach greatness. The standout dishes were the egg rolls, which came with an authentic dipping fish sauce, and the Vietnamese iced coffee. Unfortunately, the lemongrass chicken was lacking in both lemongrass flavor and overall seasoning. Moreover, the beef noodle soup was disappointingly small and lacked the rich, authentic broth that one would expect, along with several missing ingredients. There’s definitely room for improvement to enhance the authenticity of the dishes.
Me and my wife were seated and served our appetizers and drinks quickly and it was off to a great start. Then we waited and waited and waited for our entrees. The two couples seated next to us were seated after us and got their entrée AND desert before our main course. Our waiter apologized but didn't seem urgent to get us our meals. We eventually got our food after both couples signed their checks and left. Took over two hours for our food. For the price, I would absolutely reconsider going to this restaurant again.
I chose to visit this restaurant for their fried whole snapper, and I was impressed by the charming and intimate atmosphere. The drink options were unique, both pleasing to the eye and tasty. While the snapper was cooked to perfection, I found it somewhat underwhelming as the standout dish on the menu, especially considering its price of over $100. The appetizers and side dishes were enjoyable, and the service was excellent. Overall, I had a great experience, which is why I rated it 4 stars.
We absolutely love Le Colonial. The spicy chicken soup was flawless! The tuna tartare was heavenly. The shrimp and pork spring rolls were excellent. The chicken and mushroom ravioli crepes were scrumptious. We made sure to save room for the crème caramel, and it did not disappoint. It’s our favorite place to dine whenever we’re in Atlanta.

I absolutely love this restaurant, and we always enjoy our time here. Unfortunately, last night the service didn't meet the high standards we're used to. Our server was largely absent for extended periods, and we found ourselves being checked on more often by other staff members.
