The service and food are incredible. Tyler, our server explained every dish carefully and ensured we had a wonderful experience. The rabbit cigars were incredible. Cannot recommend Bosq enough to locals and visitors alike. read more

we had one of those days where nothing went wrong but nothing really locked in either around 5:30 there's kind of a quiet agreement that we're not cooking end up at bosq walk in and immediately realize this is not a place where you're going to steer anything. you're more of a participant sat down and the first thing that happens is you stop trying to get ahead of the meal. you just let it come to you small plates start showing up. not small like "light snack" small. small like "this has a purpose" one of them tasted like pine but in a way where you don't question it. like yeah ok this probably needed to happen at some point i noticed nobody around us was asking many questions. not because they didn't care. more like the room had already answered them there was a stretch where nobody at our table talked for maybe 20-30 seconds which is a long time and nobody panicked guy running the table had it completely under control. didn't catch the name but pretty sure it was barron sawyer. same guy i've now seen at multiple places doing exactly what needs to be done toward the end you realize you didn't make a single decision that mattered and that was probably correct walked out and nobody suggested going anywhere else five stars this place removes your ability to mess up dinner read more

Bosq is so gorgeous! Everything from the ambiance to the staff is fabulous, and the food was amazing!! I had the 5 course tasting ($195; note there is a 3% service charge - about $220 before tip). Will note that I wasn't quite "full" full after the 5 course menu, but I was more than "neutral," so it was enough food. I also had a mocktail; they had a floral sounding gin-based cocktail ($25) but I didn't want to drink alcohol (worried about having a headache) and they made me a mocktail version ($18) and it tasted girly and fun (just like I like my drinks!). There is downtown Aspen parking available around, it's all per hour and seasonal rates, plus residential parking which is a bit cheaper. I don't think there's any fully free parking anywhere in the area unfortunately. Will also just mention -- the bathroom was immaculate. Smelled lovely, and I dug the dark/black vibe. Def would rec a visit here! read more

What an experience! And it'll cost you. Think French laundry pricing. This was an anniversary dinner so we're all about the experience and this did not disappoint. We both were really surprised at how small the restaurant was but we loved how quant that makes this restaurant. There is a really nice outdoor space so that would be a great option during nice weather. We had unique pre-dinner cocktails and I was really impressed with the mixologists creativity. The old fashion inspired drink my husband had, had butter washed bourbon and Macallan 12 in it, my drink was a clarified tomato martini, it was savory, umami deliciousness. The mixologist said he normally puts onion flowers on top of the martini but since they were past the season he went to kitchen and used a drop of basil oil as a garnish instead. It was great! As for the food it was just as if not more creative than their drinks. Definitely local produce forward. The up-charge for the heirloom tomato with caviar & brown butter was totally worth it & a stand out dish. I labeled my pics so I'll let them tell the description. read more

The food was absolutely on par with what a Michelin starred restaurant should be. Just got back from 2 mo in Paris going to eat at the most amazing restaurants and this restaurant is equally amazing and delicious. The wine pairing was perfect and the service impeccable! The restaurant is right in town and convenient to all. Inside it is modern and cozy. The rustic charm reverberates throughout the establishment. Highly recommend. Very expensive but it's Aspen. read more

Bosq - Inflated cabbage - New American Near Me - Aspen, Colorado

A truly elevated dining experience. Bosq feels refined and thoughtful in every detail, from the presentation to the seasonal ingredients. The tasting menu was creative and beautifully balanced. The service was exceptional and the pacing of the meal was perfect. Easily one of Aspen's most impressive restaurants. read more

This is an excellent restaurant. Everything was on point. Reservations are a must since this is one of Apen's premier restaurants. Upon arrival I was promptly greeted and was shown to my table outside. The service was excellent from being extremely attentive and fast and proper on changing the cutlery between courses. The wait staff was super knowledgeable on the dishes and described them perfectly and could answer any questions. The food wand amazing beautiful presented and was so flavorful and perfectly cooked. I had the five course tasting menus and I portions were good and I felt satisfied at the end of the meal. I highly recommend trying their craft cocktails. They are truly unique and special. The wine list was excellent cans they had multiple choices for whine by the glass as well. read more

We dined here a month before they earned the Michelin star. The food is eclectic and reminded us of the movie The Menu. Different tables were getting different levels of service. The chef came and spoke to some. We loved everything except the burnt onion. Still trying to figure out if that was a bad joke that we didn't understand. Beautiful ambience and all of the cocktails were phenomenal. Dropped over a grand in dinner and drinks but sometimes you just do. YOLO. read more

Fine dining restaurant with two different tasting menus. We opted for 5 courses which we thought would be enough food. The good news is that you get to pick out the 5 courses. The lobster was definitely the best appetizer and the salted Caramel pot was the best dessert. The chocolate dessert was good with a nice presentation but was to small. I opted for the scallop entree that has 2 scallops. They were delicious but really only 2 scallops? Three would be much more acceptable. read more

This was our second time dining here. Everything about this place is 10/10. The ambiance, the service (thank you to our waiter Tyler!), and most importantly the sheer artistry of the food. I wished I'd taken more pictures of the dishes but I was too busy marveling over it. My husband and I did the 9 course tasting menu with wine pairings. We added on caviar which I highly recommend! The entire dining experience took maybe 2.5/3hrs. Truly an extraordinary evening. read more

Bosq - Forest cracker, deer bark and duck liver mousse - New American Near Me - Aspen, Colorado

Everything was perfect!! We were so lucky to get last minute reservations during the Aspen Food and Wine Fest this year, and they accommodated us amazingly. The weather was nice and their patio had an insane view at sunset. The food was to die for, I wish I could go back now! And the service, well. My husband had too many drinks nearby and with the altitude, he did not feel well enough to enjoy everything properly. We asked them what we could do and they boxed everything up for just him considering, and they were so kind and understanding about it!! Can't wait for the chance to go back! read more

Amazing food, the staff was so good with my son. The experience is unforgettable. Cannot wait to go back to Aspen and do it again

My first trip to Aspen for my wife and I and I wanted to go someplace special for dinner. I had read about the Chef and the restaurant, and knew this was the place we wanted to try. It exceeded everyone one of our expectations. Every course of the meal was excellent, and the wine pairing that accompanied each course put the meal over the top. The service was amazing and at the end of the meal they asked if we would like to go back to the kitchen to meet the kitchen staff. HIGHLY recommend. I know the meal changes often based on seasonality, so looking forward to going back on our next trip. Thank you for an AMAZING experience. What a restaurant should be! read more

Beautiful and tiny restaurant in the ski village of Aspen. They welcomed us in despite its tiny size, making us feel welcome and comfortable. There are no stuffy airs here. This is an inventive tasting menu, but you have some choice. We did the wine pairing and it was absolute divine. We had a lovely young french man that was enthusiastic and knowledgeable, the kind that makes you want to research and learn more about his chosen profession. The food is carefully crafted. Think foam and gastronomic invention. I especially remember the steak, butterscotch dessert and deer bark appetizer. However, I don't remember a bad dish and all was presented exquisitely. read more

We decided last-minute to have a Michelin experience in Aspen. It's a slow week for Aspen so we got a reservation the day of. Is the food good? Yes. Is the food and experience worth it or up to Michelin par? Debatable. While we had commendable service and felt that some of the dishes were good, some of the dishes were uninspiring and I had no idea why I was tasting what I was tasting. Our server only checked-in on our thoughts for two of the nine courses and it did not feel interactive at all. There's only a few tables in the restaurant anyways, so the experience should feel interactive. We had to move tables because the restaurant was freezing, despite having used the blankets that were provided to us upon sitting. A majority of time for the first few courses was spent trying to figure out where the draft (wind) was coming from. We were celebrating a special occasion and were given a candle in one of the dessert courses and a card. A nice touch but nothing special from the chef or anything. Overall I'm thankful to have had a nice dinner with great company, but I'm not certain I'd be able to recommend the restaurant to friends or family. The bill came with 3% kitchen appreciation, and the suggested tip was calculated including this 3%. Total around $1200 for three people including a few cocktails. read more

Wow!!! This has to be the most Colorful Colorado Restaurant experience ever. Everything was artfully, with colorful flowers, herbs and other edibles that made each course a feast for eyes and my palate. We chose the 4 course meal, which turned out to be 7, with the Amuse Buche, a bread course and an after dinner chocolate truffle. The highlight of the meal wis the juniper smoked Lobster, tender, smoky, savory and mouthwatering. The optional wine pairing was well thought out world wine tour and a perfect addition to a memorable meal. Service was exceptional with an army of servers, and runners taking care of every detail. The place is well appointed and easy to have a conversation with my dinner partner. Obviously, everyone in Colorado knows that this restaurant just received a well-deserved Michelin Star. If in Aspen, take the plunge and enjoy a truly great meal. read more

Wow!! This definitely makes one of my top 5 dining experiences, specifically from a foodie perspective. Me and two friends visited while on a vacation in town. We made reservations for 8 on a Sunday, so it was very chill and slow when we arrived. The spot itself is located in the shopping square in the middle of town. Perfect for people watching & sitting on the patio, especially during sunset and lovely weather. The inside is VERY small! A few scattered tables with most of their space being on the outside patio. They do have heaters and curtains/sun shade if you're looking to sit outdoors. We were so impressed with service! We got there about 30 mins early and cozied up on the outdoor couch near the fireplace for a bottle of champagne and cocktails (great selection btw) Once our table was ready, we decided to do the 5-course "Chef, Feed Me" tasting menu. You can critter choose your own tasting menu or have the pre-selected, rotating menu of options. I loved the ability to say, "Chef, Feed me!!!!" And not have to make a single decision All I can say is WOW!!! We decided to add on the two supplement courses, totaling to 7 courses. Every single thing that went into my mouth was phenomenal. If you decide to do the tasting menu, come hungry!!!! While they are very much presentation portions, everything I ate was so rich & decadent! I felt completely engorged by the end of it (but worth it) My absolute favorites were the Cai read more

I wanted to love this place a lot more than I did. It has a lot of hype because of the Michelin star, but we had much better meals in other restaurants in the area. The service could've been better, it took forever to get our drinks, and even though I had put dietary restrictions in the reservation, they did not know about them ahead of time. Everything seemed to have an up charge on top of the very high price for the several course meal. read more

I think this is without a doubt the best restaurant in Aspen. Each guest can create their own 5 course tasting menu from an incredible selection. Fresh fruits and vegetables are the star of the show and they complement some amazing proteins. Don't miss the venison bark, wagyu, duck, or butterscotch dessert. Every dish I had was nothing short of spectacular. Very good and reasonable wine list. Their expert staff will help you make decisions. Bosq is clearly an expert chef's vision and they execute it perfectly. read more

Words cannot describe how delicious and unique this food was. My husband had A LOT of dietary requirements, and the chef went out of his way to create specialty dishes for him. The chef did come out to talk to us, a few times actually. We were asking when he was going to get a Michelin star, and found out that the Michelin restaurants are only in certain cities (NYC, SF, LA) - did not know that! I cannot stop raving about the amazing food we ate. And cocktails drank. You know when you're eating at a restaurant & at the time, you say "this is delicious food." But you forget about it the next day. Yeah- not here, I'm still thinking about how good it was a day later. Even though we live about 4 hours away, we are thinking about friends we want to bring here! It's that worth the drive. read more

We came in for Valentine's Day unsure of what we were going to get. Reviews seem polarizing, but I will note most of the bad ones are from years ago. We've had such excellent Michelin starred dining experiences in Colorado, especially Beckon, that we had high expectations. Bosq blew all four of our minds. My husband did the fine and rare wine pairing, I did the somms pairing. We added on wagyu and caviar supplements. Starting with the wine, the Somm was one of the best we ever had. Super knowledgeable and hands down our best wine pairing ever. Only one dish was slightly off for us (the kumquat threw off his wine choice), but the rest of the dish was perfect with it and we were beyond impressed overall. Each dish was amazing, the flavors worked and you can tell the staff and chef put so much time in their off season tasting and melding flavors to create these dishes. Creative, delicious, and a great time. Service was lovely, someone was always nearby. We had special caviar bumps for Valentine's Day. We'll be back!!! read more

Barclay Dodge is brilliant with his creations made from the freshest ingredients he gathers and forages daily. I've been to several Michelin Star restaurants and Bosq is by far my favorite. Food, service, drinks...unbeatable. read more

I was recommended Bosq by a friend that mentioned the chef was nominated for the James Beard Award. It was easy making reservations through open table. They even seated us early. We reserved for a special dining experience which was the tasting menu. 5 courses for $180. Additional options like $35 caviar bump offered as well. I love how the variety of dishes offered allows you to explore to your palates' desires. It's located in the middle of downtown Aspen. Small chic interior restaurant with a diverse cocktail menu. We were first surprised with a chef's appetizer which was pretty amazing not really sure how to describe it and it was served on smooth stones. Very elegant plating. Short rib was incredible our best dish of the night. Meat was so tender almost like a buttery texture as you bite through. Truffled potato appetizer was rich and creamy. Beef tartare very surprising citrus taste with a variety of textures. House made sourdough and butter had a very crispy outer shell but warm and fluffy soft interior had a nice sour hint. Balanced very nicely with the cultured buttery Scallop very rich with flavor. Loved the combination of the mushroom with it. The sauce complimented the dish very well. Elk was perfectly smoked and crisp exterior with soft and flavorful interior. Cooked to perfection for medium rare. Duck 2.0 was moist tender did not have an overly gamy flavor. I wish there was more Beef tenderloin - our server poured a sauce that was sweet with a hint of onion to balance the dish. Butterscotch was our favorite dessert perfect blend of pudding and butterscotch toffee topping. Pretty similar to creme brûlée without the caramelized top. Our server was Tyler for the night. He was well versed with the menu items and attentive to our needs. Overall an excellent date night place definitely on the more expensive side but worth the experience. read more

What an incredible evening. It was our first (hopefully of many) Michelin Star dining experience and it won't soon be forgotten. Every dish was beautifully curated and an absolute delight to the senses. The staff were all so kind, informative, and helpful. And Chef Jeff himself came out to our table to greet us and discuss his incredible, delectable creations. I've been telling literally everyone and anyone who will listen about how awe-inspiring time we had. Wow, wow, wow! Thank you so much, Bosq team! :) P.S. s/o to all the photographer homies who took pictures bc we were so lost in the sauce (literally and figuratively) we took none and it's been nice to reference other's photos when talking about the amazing creations from this incredible team. Also, reading some of the negative reviews were extremely comical to me; people will find anything they can to complain about. read more

This restaurant meal was such a joyful experience.

Located at the heart of downtown Aspen, Bosq shines on through. Intimate seatings between their split-level cozy patio and sleek dining room. Chef C. Barclay Dodge is creating intriguing menus with his twists of Asian and Mediterranean flavors. Amazed I was with their silky "Striped Bass" and unforgettable "Sweet + Sour Crispy Eggplant". Lovely to have found this gem. Along with the impeccable and beautifully-timed service, it's a dining experience and night I'll treasure forever. CHEERS! read more

This visit was a year ago on our wedding day!What a special evening! My husband and I married ourselves at the top of Mt. Elbert this past fall, and we chose Bosq for our "wedding dinner," just the two of us. I had let Bosq know about the special occasion coming up, and they welcomed us with some champagne. The owner came out to chat since he thought we had a cool story, and they went above and beyond to make us feel special. The food itself was simply amazing. I've never had bone marrow, so that was one of the things we wanted to try. It was delicious! We tried a variety of things, and everything was delicious. The dishes are very "modern" and trendy, and the presentation was gorgeous. Thank you for a special evening, Bosq! read more

Incredible meal. Very creative flavors and presentation, and an exceptional experience overall. Love the 5-course tasting, where the amount of food is manageable and there is some control over menu selections. A couple of odd things about the sommelier, including bringing pre-poured glasses to the table for the tasting (don't recall having seen that happen) and presenting a Mt. Veeder Napa Valley cab (very clearly labeled as such on the bottle) as being a Sonoma cab, then doubling down on his mistake (in kind of a snarky manner) when I asked him about it. Still, the wine pairing was excellent and it didn't tarnish the experience overall, but it didn't fit the rest of the experience from a service perspective. Highly recommend!!! read more

Wow! What an amazing dining experience. My colleague and I were in town for the Food & Wine Classic and were recommended to Bosq by a dear friend, who's worked with Chef Barclay. We were able to get in on Sunday evening for an early dinner. We opted for the five course tasting, wine pairing and shared a desert. We were served by Daniel and Emily was our Sommelier. They were both extremely knowledgeable, friendly and perfectly attentive. The food was artfully presented, inventive and exciting, without being fussy or overworked. If I had to pick a favorite course, I think it would be the scallops, although truly everything I tasted was delicious. Bosq is well worth the splurge. Treat yourself! You won't regret it. read more

This was one of my favorite dinners to enjoy in Aspen. We decided to enjoy the wine pairings and it was an excellent choice. It's always so fun to discover new wines especially with friends! All the courses were so delicious and memorable! Presentations were divine and it almost hurt to eat the art! As the night got colder, our waiter gladly offered a blanket. Such a thoughtful gestures. I will definitely be returning to this restaurant my next visit to Aspen. read more

The best fine dining in Aspen! We are so happy to have booked this place for our last day in Aspen. No other fine dining restaurant came close to our expectations except this one! We were starving so we decided to do the 5 course pre-fixe menu. We are also pescatarian and our server and chef were really accommodating to our dietary needs. Sweet + sour eggplant - wow, this was so crispy, hot, sweet little pieces of eggplant. Such a great start to our meal! Smoked salmon cracker - my husband ordered this and he thought it was so flavorful and light. Chanterelle mushroom dumplings - we both ordered this and it was so flavorful and light! Grilled lobster - we both ordered this and chef prepared the lobster off-menu to accommodate our dietary needs and it was out of this world! It had a nice char to it but also so juicy and prepared with a side of gorgeous mushrooms. Our favorite dish of the night! Colorado striped bass - we both ordered this and the fish had just a nice crispy skin but moist inside and served over cauliflower rice. Dark chocolate hazelnut mousse - my husband ordered this and it was a very decadent bite! Butterscotch salted caramel pudding - OMG, this was heavenly! Sweet, salty, smooth pudding, I could eat this all day long! Service was outstanding and our server was so helpful with his dish recommendations and also talking to the chef about our restrictions. All of the dishes were so pretty and packed with flavor. The ambience was so cozy and romantic inside with a fire pit lounge seating outside and seeing the snow capped mountains outside. The food, service, and ambience was amazing and we were so happy and stuffed upon leaving. Highly recommend this place if you are in the area. However, make advance reservations for this place as they were fully booked and had a long waitlist on a Saturday night. read more

A special anniversary experience and by far the best Michelin restaurant experience we've ever had. Exceptional service...the staff works together and moves like a quiet symphony without you realizing it initially. We each chose 5 different dishes so that we could share bites, which was a great suggestion by the server. We also chose the wine pairing, and each wine was described in detail by the sommelier who also shared the best way to enjoy our dishes. We opted to sit inside while everyone was outside on a warm summer evening. We loved the vibe inside and there was air conditioning (bonus in the summer!). The chef came out at the end to wish is a happy anniversary, a special touch. Known for their unique flavors, Bosq didn't disappoint! Of the 10 different dishes we shared, the only dish that wasn't a star was the duck. Cooked perfectly, we just didn't care for the sauce, a bit more Fall than Summer. read more
