    Outstanding meal and service!! We sat at a high top table that overlooks the kitchen and interacting with the staff was fun! It’s a small and intimate space, be sure to reserve in advance. Being locals we don’t venture into town too often for dinner but we will become regulars at La Francaise Bistrot!

    Always an amazing experience. The food is some of the best in Breckenridge and it is some of the most authentic French food I’ve had in all of Colorado. The service is outstanding as well and every time we get to eat here they make us feel like family. Don’t skip this restaurant or their French onion soup!!!

    This is by far the best restaurant in the world, not just Breckenridge. This restaurant alone has taken Breckenridge from a semi fine dining town to an excellent fine dining town. Blessed to have this here.

    Steak frite was good but not very tender. As most French restaurants my asked for medium was rare. Should have been med rare. Fries a bit disappointing as if they were not double fried. Cool small venue and hightop near kitchen was interesting.

    This is our favorite restaurant in Breckenridge. Make sure to make reservations through their website or open table as seating is limited. The food is delicious and authentic. It is a family run business. The atmosphere is team oriented in the front of the house as well as the kitchen. The staff is quick to offer a smile, advice and smiles are easily returned as you enjoy the delicious food.

    Fabulous dining experience with amazing authentic French cuisine. The food was so good, we went back the next day to their French bakery next door for beignets, which were absolutely amazing as well. I couldn’t recommend this place more. A must stop dinner spot when in Breck.

    Outstanding meal all the way around. The best in Summit County!! We had a misunderstanding about our table when we arrived (totally my fault) but the waiter seating us and the owner couldn’t have handled the situation better. My lamb chops were phenomenal and my wife’s duck was to die for. The service was perfectly paced and the small, bistro atmosphere made for a perfect evening.

    We love the bakery and finally made it to their restaurant! We loved everything we ordered and the service is amazing. You must get the french onion soup (apparently Americans like this more than the French), scallop carpaccio, beef tartare, and the short ribs!

    Our server was rude and made us feel completely unwelcome. We have some food restrictions and tried to work around the menu and our server was put off because we were asking questions. I could understand if the place was busy but there was 3 tables occupied in the restaurant. Luckily they had a good bottle of wine otherwise I would have given it a one star. If you have food restrictions stay clear of this place.

    I’ve never written a review for this site before, but this experience was so fantastic I needed to tell people about it. This was some of the best food my partner and I have ever had. We started with the mussels and the goat cheese salad, and for entrees she had the ravioli and I had the duck. Everything was absolutely phenomenal, and I can’t recommend dining here enough. 15/10.
