    Service, hospitality and food were all outstanding. Sat on the outdoor patio, so the noise level was moderate. However, if we were inside, noise level would have been quiet. I’d highly recommend this restaurant.

    I have dined at Le Colonial more than 20 times, and the quality of the food has been consistently outstanding. The ingredients are fresh, and the flavors are delicious. The service is impeccable—it is always a pleasure to be warmly greeted by Clark, the exceptional host, and served by Edwin, who is incredibly professional and friendly. The cocktails are fantastic, and while the wine list is not extensive, it is thoughtfully curated. Overall, Le Colonial never fails to provide an excellent experience.

    Dinner at Artisans was a truly amazing experience. You feel like you are transported right to France at this new location. The food was delicious - we tried the foie gras duo, the lobster bisque, and the asparagus and mushroom soup as starters, followed by the chicken and lobster, the duck confit, and the vegetarian plate as main courses. Again everything we tried was wonderful. The service was also fantastic, with Greg taking great care of us, making sure we got what we wanted just when we needed it. Every foodie must give Artisans a try - they will not be disappointed.

    We were seated immediately. It was very busy. Saturday night and a full house! The staff is just outstanding and running 100 miles per hour in all directions….very courteous and helpful. THE BEST SALAD BAR IN TEXAS…all the shrimp and salmon you can eat and then you can go back for more as much as you’d like and then the endless meat starts coming. Our favorite eating place. You will want to come back again and again.
