    We had an early Thanksgiving celebration with my brother-in-law at Musaafer's. We had eaten there before but everything seemed even better this time than before. For appetizers, we had Mithu's Coriander Shrimp, Seekh Kebab (beef), and Shammi Kebab. For the main dish, we had Butter Chicken Experience and Rizala Lamb Chops (my favorite). We also had basmati rice, garlic naan, and tandoori roti. And if that wasn't enough, we had 2 wonderful desserts that were beautifully presented. Everything was tasty, the ambiance was stunning yet quiet, and we will be back again, for sure. The waitstaff was great!

    I have dined at Le Colonial more than 20 times, and the quality of the food has been consistently outstanding. The ingredients are fresh, and the flavors are delicious. The service is impeccable—it is always a pleasure to be warmly greeted by Clark, the exceptional host, and served by Edwin, who is incredibly professional and friendly. The cocktails are fantastic, and while the wine list is not extensive, it is thoughtfully curated. Overall, Le Colonial never fails to provide an excellent experience.
