    I asked for a private table for two but what we got was a table where my guest had a view of both the bathroom and the kitchen, which spoiled the dinner

    Service was excellent. Good bread. Salad came out with browned lettuce so we sent it back. Steak wasn’t very flavorful. Staff was friendly and place was charming

    Long time diners at La Merise. Wonderful, cozy, neighborhood spot. Excellent service . Ordered 3 of our “usual” meals. Slight differences in all 3 makes us think new chef. Sauce a bit congealed (tasted great however) and prep slightly different (salmon appeared seared instead of poached). Prices increased a bit also. Guess it is a sign of the times.

    We enjoyed a belated Valentine's Day dinner on a fairly quiet Sunday evening. This is one of our favorite French restaurants in Denver and it never disappoints. They were still serving their holiday specials and I particularly enjoyed the trout preparation served on top of a nice medley of seasonal vegetables. I'm not a big dessert eater, but since it was a special occasion I decided to have Bananas Foster and was not disappointed. Their cocktail menu is solid and they have a nice selection of wines by the glass. It was a relaxing, romantic, and thoroughly enjoyable evening.

    Terrible way to place people with tables. Respect that it was Valentine’s Day but the restaurant had tables all over the beautiful place but placed us right next to each other in the back making it uncomfortable. Food was great. Service was amazing. But just didn’t know why they wanted to place three tables together with an empty place. Whatever.

    They were out of three things I ordered, including mash potatoes. It was like a comedy routine. I would order something, she would walk away, come back and be out of it. Service was slow. Steaks were horribly bad.

    We’ve been to La Merise in the past and did not have a good experience with the food. Because the overall reviews are great, we decided to give it another shot. This time we really enjoyed our experience, and we were pleased there was no prefix menu for Valentine’s Day. My husband had the French Onion soup which was delicious and I had the Lobster bisque, which was just “okay”. The escargot was a 7/10 and the baguette was warm and fresh. We both ordered the beef Wellington from the specials list and were very happy - we’d definitely order that again and hope it gets added to the regular menu. Service was excellent and the ambiance was romantic. We’ll be back again!

    Food and ambiance were great. We did feel a little rushed at the end. We’ll be back.
