    Had dinner before a show at Memorial Hall. Great food and excellent service from David. We had the cod and duck confit both excellent. Perfect cocktails as well.

    This is our fourth time dining at Colette. So far we've not been able to reserve a table with only a counter or bar space available. Also the menu is somewhat small, without specials so after a couple visits. It becomes a bit passé. We've tried everything already and our palates are bored.

    Food was amazing! Service was great. Apps and salad came out together but after we asked them to slow down the courses and space out a little they listened and we enjoyed a nice and relaxing meal.

    We ordered the Champignons au Poulet, and Blue Fin Tuna Crudo for starters, the Roasted Beets salad, and the Icelandic Cod. It was all wonderful, and frankly, I had no idea cod could be that good.

    OMG the cod is truly one of my favorite dishes anywhere. Everything was wonderful! Sorry to hear the Sabastian roll is going away but interested in trying the new bread service

    Service was really good and all the food was excellent. The only thing that could be improved was the desserts, which were just mid.

    In full transparency I am not a huge fan of French food. That said, I thought the various dishes I enjoyed at Collete were creative, fresh, and tasty. My favorite was the Cod which had a unique thin crispy brioche layer of breading on top which added a nice texture to the fish. Service and atmosphere were great. Prices are reasonable
