    Our Server Brian who worked at Boca previously was amazing! Probably the best server in town. Outstanding. The Beet Salad was fantastic. The Burger was wonderful as well. It was one of the best burgers in town. Thank you so much for a great evening. And a shout out to the chef that accommodated us, since we are keto. Thank you. And Brian, he is top notch. Thank you, Brian. The Gigi drink is great as well. Happy Holidays. Oh, and Maya is an essential employee. She is a doll. Great Restaurant! Great Experience I will tell everyone!

    This place is great. Service and food are top and it’s a great place to enjoy a meal prior to an event at Music Hall.

    I had a party of 10 here for my birthday dinner. The GM Gabby was very accommodating via email to set it up, and our server Rachel was incredible. She was kind, intuitive, and super knowledgeable about the menu. It was a really perfect evening and the food was great. I personally recommend the carrot salad, the brioche crusted cod (WOW), and the chocolate mousse. Grateful for this restaurant and all the wonderful people who make it up!

    Colette’s is an easy stroll to an event at Music Hall. Although it has a limited menu, there isn’t an option that isn’t prepared to perfection and the service is sharp. This visit we enjoyed the Parisian Carrot Salad which was a bright and crisp start to the meal. We each ordered the Icelandic Cod served with a caviar beurre blanc over wilted spinach. With its ever so light toasted brioche topping, this dish takes Cod to a whole new level. We left feeling quite satisfied, but not too full to enjoy the Pops Christmas Concert.

    Great vibe, wonderful service and all the food was perfect. They honored dietary restrictions with creativity and kindness. The night was wonderful and we love the cozy space. This was our second visit and we’ll return.
