Le Colonial, a French-Vietnamese restaurant that debuted in New York City in 1993 and Chicago in 1996, is scheduled to open in Naples on Dec. 14.
The restaurant is at 457 Fifth Ave. S., according to a statement. The owners are Rick Wahlstedt and Joe King, while design and decor is a collaboration between architectural and design firm Knauer Inc. of Chicago, artist and painter Jonas Wickman of Stockholm, Sweden and DF Creative Designs of Connecticut.
“We are delighted to be opening on one of the most beautiful streets in Florida and believe Le Colonial will be an exciting addition to the dining scene,” Wahlstedt says in the release. “We look forward to meeting everyone in Naples and having them experience the romantic interiors and Vietnamese cuisine.”
