What a wonderful place and we will be back. Our server was incredible, thank you for your service and hard work! We had the chefs special. Grouper and the veal chop. Probably one the most memorable meals I’ve had in the past decade. Good job! Le Magnifique

Amazing French restaurant! I ordered a chicken liver appetizer and a trout. The chicken liver is very savory and goes well with the crackers. The trout is well-processed. Not a single bone can be found. The sauce adds more flavor to the fish.

What a charming place! I came for lunch and I have been hosted by a very sweet, professional and friendly waitress and staff. Started by half a dozen oysters, continued with the amazing mussels and fries and finishing with the banana and chocolate crepe. Everything was fabulous, unfortunately I couldn’t try everything so I will definitely come back for more!! Thank you so much for everything.

Very good but not quite great. A group of six of us went there for Denver restaurant week and all ordered off the pre fixe menu. Mussels à la Marinière, French onion soup, Chicken Croquettes, Trout Grenobloise, and Beef Bourguignon.

Delicious brunch spot! Both the Stroganoff and Corned Beef Hash crepes were delicious, as were the sandwiches if you are looking for a lighter option. The restaurant is small but really cute, we loved the service and the ambiance.

A wee slice of Paris right in Cherry Creek just makes sense. Came for lunch and really enjoyed the warm atmosphere, french decor, and prompt service. The variety of the cheese plate was impressive. The crab and avocado salad was also very good. All around good experience!

Came in for a Saturday day brunch. I can tell this place is a neighborhood favorite from the customers that were coming in. The interior is nicely decorated and there’s ample seating outside as well. The bar counter also looked amazing to just sit and soak up the vibe. As for the food, everything was nicely executed bread was warm and crispy as well. I’ll definitely be coming back again!

As a huge connoisseur of steaks, I can say this filet mignon was very chewy and unimpressive. Neither my steak nor my husbands steak was cooked how we asked (way over done). Per usual, the French sauce comes to the rescue and saves what’s left of the dish. But for the price, the steak and the sauce should both be fantastic. The vegetables reminded me of hospital food. I would rather go to Bon Ami over this place.
