La Merise French Bistro

I loved their coffee, the bread as well the chicken croquettes. The staff were warm and observant too. We’d be willing to come back. The creme Brûlée is delicious and light.

Everything about this place was lovely. My boyfriend took me here for my birthday and I ordered trout and he ordered the pork medallions and we both LOVED what we got! Highly recommend for a fancy dinner out with a loved one.

When you're craving a taste of Paris in a charming setting, this is the Denver restaurant that comes to mind. The brunch/lunch menu is delicious, especially the savory crepes with a crispy side of corned beef hash. My sister enjoyed the signature burger with a sliver of pate for extra richness and crispy fries with a touch of truffle butter. And the extra cold-dry martini was on point.🍸 Tres decadente!

My husband wanted French food for his birthday, so we booked on open table and we're asked if we were celebrating a special occasion, we said it was a birthday celebration. Upon arrival the woman who seated us said "I see you are celebrating a birthday" we said, yes we are. Our waitress Elena never commented or asked about a special occasion, ignored our table, left our bread basket empty. She really pushed for our entree orders too but we didn't want to rush through the meal. The food was good, then she arrived with dessert menu's. She asked if we wanted dessert and I said "we are celebrating a birthday" to which she said nothing. At this point we were not happy and decided to skip dessert. She brought the bill to me and after paying she handed me her business card and told me selling insurance was her day job. Folks, I've got to tell you, never in my life has a server actually marketed her company to me in a restaurant. We were really unhappy now. I called the restaurant that evening and asked for the owner or manager to call me back. The next morning Johnny the lunch manager called back. I told him the story and he actually said: "we don't give out free desserts". For the record, we never asked for a free dessert, we just thought it might be nice that his birthday was acknowledged by our server. When I told him about the business card he did seem surprized, as he should have. Why are you asking on open table if you don't want to celebrate? We did tip Elena appropriately because we aren't awful people. Johnny said that he hoped we would come back...I told him no, we will not return. We will go back to Bistro Vendome because they always treat their customers well. Very, very bad experience.
