    Colonie was disappointing. The waitress was overly pushy. The pork chop was delicious, but was extremely fatty. The extreme darkness of the restaurant made it hard to eat since I couldn't see my food.

    Follow your evening of drinks with a coffee. Not sure where it's from but the French presse is a nice touch.

    Kind of average. Lots of yelling from the kitchen. Not a great brunch spot with a hungover.
