    It’s very nice to have a fine dining experience where you can come in wearing casual clothes and still have great service and very high-quality food. It was so much fun having the baked Alaska flamed at our table and we will be dining there again.

    Just amazing. Granted this is a french restaurant in Vail, so value is hard to describe. But the service was excellent, and the food was outstanding. The terrine de foie gras was to die for, and you have to get the souffle au citron to end the evening.

    Dinner was amazing and the ambiance was perfect! Our party had the Bouillabaisse, Dover Sole and the shrimp and lobster puff pastry. Desserts are amazing.

    Loved it. Particularly the foie gras, the vou la vent de Hommard which had a delightful saffron sauce and the bouillabaisse which had a subtle broth greatly enhancesble with the mayonnaise garlic, paprika side sauce, our wage staff was particularly attended and informative. The atmosphere at this restaurant is elegant and refined. This is a great restaurant for a private romantic meal.
