Spectacular ambience, and one of the best bars in Denver. The restaurant was beautiful with enough background music that didn’t prohibit good conversations. The food was consistently excellent and beautifully presented. My only nit was that the otherwise exceptional service seemed a bit hurried and could use a little more Friendliness in their approach.

The food was absolutely delicious! Clean and very healthy while being perfectly paired with flavor combos. Service was great. Very friendly and helpful. Patio was especially nice the evening we were there in mid-September. Loved the ambiance indoor with the moody decor as well. Many things to try. Will be back.

I have dreams about the shaking beef. The service is great and the ambience is beautiful. The crowd is a bit older but otherwise very much cherry creek!

We loved our night out here! All the plates were shareable so we were able to try different dishes. We had the fried rolls, ravioli, and beef stir fry. The shaken ice tea was also delicious and a nice mocktail. Would definitely recommend and make sure to make a reservation.

As a Cherry Creek local, I can confidently say Le Colonial is one of the true standouts in the neighborhood. The staff were incredibly kind and had the best sense of humor, making the whole experience feel relaxed and fun.
We only stopped in for a glass of champagne, but ended up being completely surprised with some of the best desserts. It turned into one of those unexpected evenings that just feels special. Cherry Creek is lucky to have a place like this.
Our waitress, Bri, was absolutely amazing, so genuine, attentive, and funny. She turned what was meant to be a quick stop into an amazing night.

We heard so many good things about Le Colonial and definitely were not impressed by our experience. We had a birthday reservation and were given the smallest table, two small plates and a drink and you don’t have much space. The service took LONG our cocktails didn’t come out until way after our small plates and our dinner came out. There seemed to be some confusion with the servers as two different ones were helping one better than the other. Then, at the end we asked for a to go container and the waiter put both meals into one container. The food was good but not worth the hiccups and loud dinner atmosphere. The Lychee martini was the by far the best thing!

Interesting, creative menu with mostly delicious food. We ate at the bar and the bartender was great. And even though the decor is beautiful, the repetitive loud house music completely distracted and annoyed us. This restaurant could easily enhance the experience by replacing the music with a cool Vietnamese vibe at a decibel level more conducive to dinner conversation. Also, the detectable are too close together - why we chose the bar.

Le Colonial offers a refined and elegant dining experience in Denver, marked by exceptional service and an atmosphere that feels truly special. From the moment we arrived, the staff’s attentiveness and professionalism stood out, elevating the evening to something memorable. Although billed as a French-Vietnamese fusion restaurant, the menu and flavors lean strongly Vietnamese, with only subtle nods to French influence. Rather than a true fusion, the experience feels more like an upscale Vietnamese culinary journey—deeply flavorful, beautifully plated, and clearly crafted with care. Each dish is thoughtfully composed, delivering bold, balanced flavors that showcase the richness of Vietnamese cuisine. It's among the best Vietnamese dining I’ve had in Denver. The only drawback: the tables for two are quite small, which makes it challenging to share multiple dishes comfortably—something to consider given that the menu encourages sharing. Expect to spend around If not over $100 per person for a full experience, but the quality and service justify the price.

Good food, major hiccups. Bad service, unavailable dishes.
First off we waited about 15 min just to get water and drink orders. We told two separate people it was our first time in only to not be explained anything about the menu at all. I had to ask if the entrees come with rice or anything. No recommendations were made to us.
Secondly, we ordered after another long wait. We ordered the duck and the chicken clay pot. The server comes back and neither of these dishes were available. We get a menu and pick new stuff.
Food comes out. Everything is pretty yummy. The seabass was VERY fish sauce forward. Steak was super yummy but slightly beyond medium rare that was ordered.
For the price, this experience was very below the mark. They need to dial in and hopefully learn to curate the experience they’re shooting for. This is kinda making it difficult to wanna go back

I love Le Colonial as it is a beautiful romantic restaurant with wonderful service and great food. I have dined here several times either in larger groups or on a date…always a treat
For sure it is a spendy treat but the food is wonderful. Great vegetarian dishes. Love the yellow tofu curry and tofu and mushroom noodles.
Great meat dishes: sticky ribs, shaken beef, and duck are awesome
