Best Gluten Free Restaurants in Gold Coast / Streeterville

Not my first time at Le Colonial but my first review. Relaxed ambiance with a Vietnamese theme. We were courteously seated and served, the service is as expected from a high-end dining experience. However, the food was the star of our dining experience. The mocktail lyche iced tea was 2 of 5 stars, probably wouldn’t order again. The chicken dumplings were amazing 10/10! Very flavorful accompanied by an equally tasty sauce. A definite must try. My first time trying pho which was delicious another 10/10. Crisp yet comforting broth flavors, perfect for the cold Chicago night. The crispy shrimp and pork rolls were also very good 8/10. For entrees, their specialty fried rice was excellent 10/10. The shaking beef was another favorite must try 10/10. Roasted salmon and chicken curry were good but not on par with our other menu choices, 6/10.

The gentleman who took care of us was very helpful and polite. The food and refreshments were in a wide variety of and abundance. The harpist played beautifully, and environment was very pleasant. We’ve decided to make this a healthy family tradition.

The food at RL Restaurant was absolutely amazing—every dish was perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. The ambiance was also beautiful, creating a lovely atmosphere for dining. However, I think it would benefit more if it were just reservations-only. It’s a small space, and it was overly crowded and quite loud, which took away from the otherwise great experience. With fewer walk-ins, it could be even more enjoyable for guests.

The white fish was excellent but too big Because we are staying in a hotel in left most of it

Food excellent as always, and our server was very helpful. The turkey French dip, my go to sandwich, was delicious. Great take on a classic. It can get a bit loud at lunchtime.
