This French restaurant is now firmly in the hands of chef Jennifer Jasinski and manager Beth Gruitch-Verucchi (the same team that operates Rioja across the street), and it's already a Larimer Square landmark. The space is beautiful, the service casually professional and the solidly French bistro fare very impressive. And while dinner is wonderful here, brunch is a thing of beauty.

  • 2009 | Best French Brunch

    It's worth going to Bistro Vendôme every weekend just to see what sort of crepes du jour the kitchen is cooking up. It's worth going twice in a single weekend just so you can have the croissants with rose jam and croquet madame and bier rouge one... More >

  • 2008 | Best French Breakfast

    Bistro Vendôme has a number of things going for it: the best location in Denver, tucked in the back of Larimer Square with a lovely garden; the buzz of a wildly (and deservedly) popular restaurant; and the sort of weekend breakfast menu that... More >

  • 2007 | Best Brunch

    When the crew from Rioja took over Bistro Vendôme last year, fans wondered what would happen to the classically French menu. Sure, the restaurant would continue to occupy one of the choicest bits of hidden real estate in the city -- with a stunning p... More >

  • 2006 | BEST BRUNCH

    Don't get us wrong: Chef Eric Roeder also does a great dinner at Bistro Vendome. He's got that whole hidden-French-bistro thing down, and when Larimer Square gets to looking like the run up to a well-dressed soccer riot on weekend nights, you'd... More >

  • 2006 | BEST FRITES

    How frite it is: At Bistro Vendome, chef Eric Roeder offers three kinds of steak frites -- a classique, an au poivre and a Roquefort. His galley bangs out dozens of orders every night, cutting the spuds, blanching the frites, leaving the thin... More >

    Unbelievable atmosphere. Wonderful service. The only reason it's not five stars is the over use of salt. wow. Other than that, every dish was a hand-crafted masterpiece. Location was perfect and the bar was friendly.

    We went to Bistro Vendome for Valentines Dinner and were very impressed. They were super crowded and it still felt intimate. Their wine list was great and the food superb. If you are looking for a slice of Paris in Denver, try Bistro Vendome.

    This is the first really good place I went to in Denver a few years ago. I've been back and they always deliver with fantastic French food in one of the best atmospheres in town. You really feel like you're in a little bistro in Europe eating great food and just hanging out. The menu is very French but the prices are very reasonable and they have stayed that way - I think only about 1 or 2 out of 10 or so entrees are over $20, and you always get sides included. The chef here is the same one at Rioja and she's awesome!!!
