Bonjour Denver! |
1420 Larimer Square Denver, CO 80202 United States +1 303 825 3232 http://www.bistrovendome.com/ |
This quaint restaurant has been named after the famous historic square Place Vendôme in Paris. Chef Roeder describes the fare he serves up as, 'French soul food', so you can expect such dishes as Striped Bass a la Provencal ($19) and Veal Shortribs with Socca Frites ($23). Choose from an impressive array of wines, champagne cocktails, and 'Gueles de Bois' (hangover drinks) to accompany your meal. Chances are that you will be preparing to say 'Bonjour' again soon - even before you're done leaving! Review © 2007, Wcities |

Affordable French fare |
112 East Eighth Ave Denver, CO 80203 United States +1 303 863 8094 http://www.lecentral.com |
Just when you thought all French restaurants were pretentious, stuffy and overpriced, along comes Le Central. Located in Capitol Hill, the quaint spot dishes up a bit of charm, along with an ever-changing selection of affordable cuisine. The Saturday brunch, with an endless glass of champagne, is extremely popular with the locals. The menu changes daily but has been known to feature Alaskan halibut, Atlantic salmon, roast pork and grilled rib eye. An extensive wine list offers over 100 different wines, and most are priced under USD25. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Relaxing rendezvous |
2707 West Main St Denver, CO 80120 United States +1 303 794 5666 http://www.meltingpot.com/Litt... |
This restaurant consistently rates as one of the most romantic spots to dine in Denver. Vibrant mountain views combine with fondue meals to create a cozy setting for exchanging coy glances. A nightly rendezvous here can take up to three hours. Bread and several selections of cheese fondue start the feast, followed by the main course of meat and vegetables, and boiling oil for dipping purposes. Chocolate fondue with fruit and sponge cake rounds out the romantic evening. The wine selection is outstanding. Review © 2007, Wcities |

French-Napoleon, American-style |
321 17th Street (in the Brown Palace Hotel) Denver, CO 80202 United States +1 303 297 3111 / +1 800 321 2599 http://www.brownpalace.com |
Designed in a French Napoleonic style, the Palace Arms in the Brown Palace Hotel brings the elegance and regality of old Europe to America. The restaurant is full of fascinating period antiques. With all that ambiance, the food is distinctly American, with a hint of classical French. The pan seared lobster cake is a great way to start the meal. The rack of lamb is an excellent choice for the main course. Jacket and tie are required during the dinner hours. The wine list is extensive and excellent. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Hip Uptown diner |
1700 Vine Street Denver, CO 80206 United States +1 303 399 1700 http://www.rhino.com |
Serving contemporary cuisine with a slight French flair, this restaurant fuses a sparse, sleek setting with chic fare and a casual neighborhood atmosphere. The menu offers a mix of upscale diner items, including a USD9 grilled cheese sandwich and an array of burger selections, and new spins on local favorites like lamb shanks and grilled albacore. Portions are small, so if you are really hungry, steer clear from the dinner selection and stick with the sandwiches and burgers. And definitely order a piece of the divinely decadent chocolate cherry cheesecake. Review © 2007, Wcities |
