Editorial Review for Bastien's Restaurant – by Dave Flomberg

In Short
The circular dining room here three levels and a high-vaulted ceiling. An aging piano and pictures of old-school movie stars add to the decor. Low lighting and gold sheen lend a late '60s-Vegas feel to everything. The house specialty is New York strip steak covered in a brilliant sugar glaze that seals in the juices marvelously. Carnivores can also nosh on T-bones, prime rib, beef tenderloin and other meaty options.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Bastien's is one of my absolute favorite places to dine in Denver. I've lived here for 13 years and Bastien's has always been a staple for me. This place is not for snobs or idiots that would rather eat at Chili's (see review 2nd after this one). This place is not trying to be anything but what it is- a great steak house with brilliant service, an incredible Lemoncello cocktail and the type of ambiance no chain restaurant could EVER pull off. Our service has never been short of EXCELLENT. The escargot is a favorite of mine, as is the steak with craw fish and sauce. As the GM of a busy Larimer Square restaurant, I know great service, and I know great food, and obviously, I cannot say enough about this place. Drop your pretension and save some bucks at this wonderful and amazingly affordable restaurant. The aforementioned idiot who also mentioned they expected to see a call girl or ex-con is right- and that's one of the reasons this restaurant is a Colfax gem! Bastien's has been around for a long time for a reason, so go check it out- I hope you'll find it to be the wonderful destination I know it is. Cheers to Eric and all the staff!!!!

Pros: affordable, high quality steak, excellent service, great cocktails, never pretencious

After passing by many of times, my curiosity got the best of me, and I stopped in for dinner. WOW! Right out of the gate I know I had found a new staple. The ambiance draws you in right away. After drooling over the menu, for quite some time, I finally decided to try the house special and get the Sugar Steak. A NY strip with a delicious caramelized glaze, and good sized at that! I complemented the steak with the garlic mashed potatoes. After dinner I had to indulge in one of there famous desserts. The skillet pie came highly recommended, I chose the apple. What a great finishing touch! The wait staff was extremely friendly and made me feel right at home. Long story short Bastien's was a great find and i would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great meal and comfortable atmosphere!

Pros: Ambienc, Food, value

Cons: none

If the Rat Pack were getting a steak in Denver, this old-school spot is where they'd do it.  See the full editorial review.
