    Food and service were both excellent. However, toward the end of our meal, a woman (diner, staff or random stranger from off the street?) came into the restaurant and began screaming at the uniformed staff for several minutes. We couldn't tell why, but it certainly ruined an otherwise perfect meal. Then she left, and a few minutes later a policeman arrived, talked to staff for a bit and also left. We never got a real apology or explanation for this incident. I assume that it is not a regular occurrence, but was still a real mood-breaker.

    Dear Ned, thank you for your wonderful review, we are so excited to hear that you loved and enjoyed our food and quality of service. Yes, that specific night we had an incident of a poor homeless person wondering into our and other establishments in town which was then removed by the police immediately. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, we hope that you come back another time, we would love to see you again! Warm wishes from Aspen, Your French Alpine Bistro Team

    Poor service, rushed, food before drinks. Was told steak was a fillet Mignon but it was not, it was 3 tiny cutlets, I’ve never seen a fillet served that way. Really disappointing dinner won’t be returning.
    French Alpine Bistro - Crêperie du VillageResponded on 7 October 2024

Again, thank you for your review, we hope to rewrite your opinion and match it with the many delighted guests that have enjoyed their time with us.

    We had a wonderful lunch outside as it was a very nice day. The food and the people watching is great! Highly recommend to see the restaurant inside too. Lots of artifacts and memorabilia to check out.

    Dear Christine, we are thrilled to hear you had a wonderful lunch at our one-of-a-kind French bistro!

    Jasmine was an incredible server. Such a fun, romantic spot. We never miss it when we are in Aspen. Try the cornichons with the fondue!

    I can’t say enough about how nice an experience we had . We had booked an outdoor table, but a downpour made dining outside not an option. We were given a table inside. The entire staff were very friendly. We had some special requests. The wait staff were very accommodating and couldn’t have been more understanding and kind. Our experience far exceeded our expectations. Thank you for making our dining experience a memorable one.

    Dear Cindy, thank you for your kind words! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed our unique service and took the time to also mention our fantastic staff. Yes, our heated and covered patio is wonderful in all kinds of weather but we are glad we made you feel more comfortable inside our cozy Bistro setting. We hope that you will grant us another visit in the future and try our Escargots or popular French Onion soup - if you haven't already and would love to welcome you back and give you more recommendations. Warm wishes from Aspen, Your French Alpine Bistro
