    Our 1st time visiting and the bar upstairs server was great. Once we moved to our table our server was not the best. Sing that it was our 1st time there he didn’t explain anything to us and he dropped the food off and left for a while didn’t come back and we didn’t have napkins etc. The lounge manager Kiely was awesome she made sure we got seated on time and made sure the things the server did not provide were taken care of. If the server had been better this would have been a 10/10 experience

    Thanks for the feedback, Syreeta. I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed your first visit to Le Colonial, and found our bar upstairs server to be great. However, I'm sorry to hear that your server's performance did not meet your expectations. We strive to provide excellent service and it seems we fell short during your visit. Your feedback regarding the server's knowledge and attentiveness is valuable and will be addressed with our team. I'm glad to hear that our lounge manager, Kiely, made up for the shortcomings and provided you with a top-notch experience. I hope to have the opportunity to serve you again and provide a more seamless dining experience. Best regards, Francis Carneiro, General Manager

    My friends and I had a great time - the food, the service, and the atmosphere provided for an incredible dining experience. We will definitely be back. I suggest the veggie eggrolls, ginger chicken clay pot, chicken dumplings, snow crab & shrimp (it’s smaller than expected but still filling because we had the other items), and the GARLIC noodles. We also enjoyed the apple tart and the coconut mocktail. 10/10

    My shaking beef was good but should have included a starch like rice or noodles rather than just watercress although the beef was really good

    Impeccable service from our server Stephen, wonderful menu selection we had 6 items from the small plates menu to try out everything (our first visit) and was thrilled that all were delicious. Cocktails were a little weak but everything else was superb.

    Overall great experience. Took my girlfriend for her bday dinner and she loved her halibut filet dish. I loved the seafood ceviche small plate. I kind of blindly ordered the spicy shrimp stir fry not knowing what was on it. The dish was honestly terrible I was so surprised. The main problem was there was a really unpleasant slimy seafood-esque meat on there (maybe octopus) which was nearly inedible. The service was 10/10 I must say

    Hey Ethan, We're glad you and your girlfriend enjoyed your meal. We're sorry to hear about the seafood ceviche and the shrimp stir fry. We appreciate your feedback and will definitely look into these issues. We aim to provide excellent food and service, and it's clear we fell short this time. We hope to have another chance to impress you in the future. Best, The Management Team
