For a romantic rehearsal dinner or elegant wedding reception, Le Colonial will transport you and your special guests to an exotic paradise. A great escape from traditional settings, your entire party will delight in the tranquility of their outdoor patios, upstairs lounge and four private dining salons while enjoying culinary masterpieces that are contemporary twists on traditional French-Vietnamese cuisine.

The atmosphere at Le Colonial evokes the tropical elegance of Vietnam (a French colony at the time) in the 1920s. From the patchwork tile floors, stamped tin ceilings and vintage lamps and photographs to the graceful palm trees, ceiling fans, rattan furniture and tall shuttered windows, you and your guests will celebrate in a location that feels as though it was transported from 75 years ago and 10,000 miles away.

The upstairs of the restaurant has a well-appointed bar and lounge that provides a relaxed salon ambiance with its faded antique oriental rugs, decorative bamboo birdcages, low wood tables and comfortable rattan couches. This spacious area is appropriate for a memorable cocktail reception or for after dinner coffee and tea service. Le Colonial also offers a wonderful covered outdoor veranda, complete with heat lamps. The veranda is well suited for additional dining, an outdoor cocktail reception or as a sanctuary for your guests to relax and mingle in the crisp, fresh air.

The food at Le Colonial is unparalleled. The restaurant received the “Award of Distinction” from Zagat’s Guide and an “Award of Excellence” from the prestigious Wine Spectator magazine.
