Le Colonial's lunch menu is a scaled-down version of the dinner menu, with slightly lower prices in many instances. Le Colonial has a decent wine list, weighted toward light-bodied bottles. Six wines are available by the glass. There's also a selection of armagnacs, cognacs and eaux de vie. When summer returns, a balcony overlooking Rush Street will hold a few outdoor-dining tables.
Service is efficient but has a tendency to trip over itself.
One crowded evening, our waiter cautioned us that the kitchen was rather slow, and that it would be good to order quickly. Management would do well to discourage this overobvious ploy. Goofs like these are not enough to derail a very good restaurant, but they detract from all the good work Le Colonial does. Afghani African Amer.
