Le Colonial Restaurant - San Andreas

The food and service are top notch. They serve Vietnamese French fusion with authentic flair.

Long time San Francisco institution continues to impress. It's probably been 20 years since I visited Le Colonial. That kind of longevity in the competitive SF food scene is noteworthy alone. We tried a variety of apps and entrees such as the sea bass and the green fried prawns. I must say that it was all very good. The entrees and drinks were expensive but not more than one would expect in a high-end SF restaurants. $18 for a mai tai? Luckily it was good. The room has a comfortable Vietnamese/French theme. The service was getting a bit lax as we dined later in the evening. I had good memories from past visits and this recent visit reenforced the positive impression. We would return.

Favorite SF restaurant. Delicious food and wonderful ambiance.

Absolutely delicious and amazing vegan options! My new favorite!

Very much wanted to enjoy this restaurant such a lovely space, and the service was attentive and friendly. But the food, while in some cases creative, with many plant based versions of famous Vietnamese dishes available, was overall too bland and lacking in authentic seeming flavors. Each dish came with its own special version of dipping sauce, but each sauce was almost but not quite tasty enough. As befits its high rent location and decor, the prices are rather steep especially given the underwhelming food. The night we were there, a *very* loud party was happening in the upstairs lounge, with attendant thumping music and squealing teenagers.
