Restaurant Review: Le Colonial- San Francisco

I had dinner at this great Vietnamese-French fusion restaurant just off Union Square in San Francisco. The food was fabulous, albeit pricey. For those looking to dine gluten free, it is a great choice. The waiter was familiar with which options would be appropriate, and tell me which used rice flour, potato flour, corn starch, ect, but still checked in with the chef to be sure. The soy sauce did have wheat in it however. We had the spring rolls (in rice wrappers!) and I had the lamb chops for dinner. We had dinner with 2 other couples and everyone seemed to be pleased with their meals. Was it worth the $175/couple? Yes and No. I'd go there again, and I would recommend it to people, but I also wouldn't hurry up and run out to go again. For the record, my husband says no. However, he does think it's a fabulous weekend bar. (And the drink menu is very extensive, unique, and fantastic!)



Gluten free rating (out of 5):
