    Wild Mushrooms - Must-get item!
    Rika M.

    I needed to kill some time before my Cirque du Soleil show at 7pm at Ball Area. As I wanted to avoid a hefty parking fee of $30+ near the site, I chose a parking space in a building on Wewatta and Speer that was more than half of what those expensive parking places charge. Coincidentally, my parking was in the same building as Coohills. I simply couldn't think of any other place to stop and have a little cocktail and a light meal than this French restaurant I once utilized close to 10 years ago. In a way, it was an opportunity for the to re-appreciate this forgotten establishment. I, all of a sudden, got so excited thinking about a delicious French wine and an appetizer plate or two. The time was a little after 5pm. The restaurant was still slow for the regular patron crowd (although there was a party of about 15-20 where they reserved their little room to the right.) I was warmly greeted by the man at the reception desk. Upon telling him that I was by myself where I would just need a bar seating, he immediately escorted me to it. I appeared to be the first diner for the night as if to say that I had the whole bar to myself. It took me for the bar staff to assist me as they appeared to be busy with making cocktails for the large party. I was patient though. Eventually two bartenders (a female and male) took a notice of me and assisted me with the happy hour menu (the regular menu was handed to me by the man who took me to the bar.) They were friendly and welcoming. The male staff walked me through tonight's special. They all sounded good and yet I was only looking to have some light meal (as I didn't want to show up to the Cirque du Soleil show with a full belly), I went with... 1) House EPI Bread with House Butter ($7) and, 2) Wild Mushrooms ($11) And to accompany my light dishes, I went with.... AIX, Cote de Provance Rose ($15 and yet during the happy hour, it was $2 off) I conveyed this to the male bartender. My perfect happy hour time finally began. -House EPI Bread (by the way, EPI appears to mean pain d'epi or wheat stalk bread is a rustic French loaf shaped to resemble a stalk of wheat) was a fantastic choice. Its presentation on a wooden long/skinny board was so French. The house made butter with some seasoning on it was truly the best accompaniment to the freshly baked bread. For a bread, I tend to fancy olive oil with balsamic vinegar more (well, this is more of an Italian way), the butter changed the whole game. As I have never seen a simple loaf of bread so beautifully presented in a very simple form, I am now obsessed with this bread. I finally found a place where they have the best house bread presentation! -Wild Mushrooms is a must item off the menu. A generous amount of garlic is what I tasted. And a noticeable amount of black vinaigrette did a nice harmony like a perfect dance danced by a male/female duo in the dish. This dish pairs so well with the bread. -Rose wine has been something I lately enjoy in my daily life more than ever. I used to undermine this pink wine varietal and I don't even know why that was. It's true; you can hit and miss for a rose wine and yet AIX (which I had seen it at various different liquor stores many times in the past) is more than a solid rose in my personal opinion. To be able to enjoy this rose wine at the price of $13 during the happy hour is a good value at a high-end restaurant like Coohills. The two appetizer dishes filled me up (I had to get a to-go container for the mushrooms though as it's a really good portion which two people can easily share; the same goes with the house bread as well but I finished this one.) I have decided. Coohills is now my go-to solo happy hour spot from now on. Although they do emit the high-end restaurant ambiance, you can casually walk in and have your little "me time" moment with no intimidation. If you've been looking for a restaurant like that, then go to Coohills. They also have a nice patio space; you can sit there as long as the weather cooperates.

    AMAZING food at Coohills last light. Charcuterie board was great; the pâtè was ridiculously good. Perfect Duck Leg Confit with Lentils. House made bread is delicious. Chef Tom Coohill Jr. is one of Denver's very best and Diane Schapiro Coohill runs a great front of the house! Have you been? You need to!

    I love this place because of the convenient location, friendly staff, good cocktails and creative dishes. It's nice that they update their menu frequently and really focus on fresh ingredients and high-end entrees. We have been a few times, but these are pics from our most recent visit. The soup of the day was our favorite... definitely recommend splitting it! Only a few steps away from Ball Arena, so a nice place to visit before a concert, although it may be too fancy for children (and some adults).

    We came for the prix fixed valentines dinner and had some house wine. The house wine recommended was actually pretty good for a house wine. The place was definitely busy, given since the holiday! The waiter took good care of us regardless. The food was yummy and we left feeling full. The restaurant gives the vibe of an upper grade restaurant with mood lighting and new century decor. Given the atmosphere, we were expecting the food to be amazing. Maybe this was because of the holiday? We will definitely be back since the service was great, and the food was good. Everything had a nice profile to it.

    Incredible wine, food, service, company. Cannot believe I've never been here before now. Can't wait to return. The bread pudding was hands down the best thing I've eaten in YEARS. Perhaps DECADES. No joke.

    What an incredible dinner! They have so many amazing gluten free options. We ordered the gluten-free crabcakes, which were absolutely incredible. I've never had crabcakes this delicious. We also ordered the aged tofu dinner that was incredibly and surprisingly delicious. We also had the fries and a salad, which all were spectacular. Our waiter Craig was incredible to. we had a really nice anniversary dinner and would highly recommend this place. The service the food the quality the ambience is out of this world.

I'm super bummed because the place served a lot of cute vibes. If we had a bigger group of girls with us I'm sure we would've snapped everything for the 'gram or the tikky tom.

The French onion soup was very cheesy and deeply flavored as you would expect from this classic. The fried calamari were lightly battered and not too greasy but not particularly special compared to the other appetizers I had. I ordered the filet aux Poivre and swapped the fries for potato pave. I think my med-rare fillet was mixed up with someone else's because it was overdone. To their credit, they did comp it and bring me a perfectly cooked one later but I felt like it was lacking salt. I would've liked to order the lamb chops, but they were not available the night. I was there. Service was impeccable! The server did a great job keeping our table of 14 happy. The rye whiskey sour I had was well made. And the crispy toast dessert was sooo good! 4.5-stars!

And you'll be openly humiliated and insulted as an adult by even daring to bring your kid. My husband and I come here regularly for a date and we love the place. This afternoon we brought our 1 year old with us for the first time; she loves fries and this place has great pommes frites. We came at 4:30pm and it was probably 90% empty, and obviously not like romantic date night time. First, they tried to seat us alone in the back room, and when we asked to sit in the main dining room (where there were ~15 open tables), the hostess was demonstrably annoyed...despite the fact that every other party was seated in the main room. Worth noting, we come here often at the same time without our daughter, and have never once been seated in the back room alone. Our daughter was sitting quietly in her high chair "reading" the menu and playing with stickers, a few of which she dropped on the floor...because, you know, she's 1. A staff member repeatedly walked by giving us dirty looks and complaining to other staff members about the stickers within earshot. After hearing it multiple times, my husband said, "don't worry, we always pick up after our child." The staff member snapped back, "well they're clearly already going to stick to the floor". My husband replied "we are going to pick them up...kids drop things and things happen". She rolled her eyes, and walked away. We always clean up after our kid. We go out of our way to make sure she's only in appropriate places at appropriate times...like, I obviously wouldn't bring her to this restaurant at 7 PM on a weekend night where she might disrupt adults looking for a romantic night. But she was just sitting there quietly playing with stickers, not bothering anyone (except apparently this staff member). I'm shocked that a place with high chairs and a kids menu would not only be so unwelcoming before we even sat down, but would also insult us as adults by insinuating we would leave our kids trash on the ground in their restaurant. And to stand there and openly talk about us in front of other staff members?? Genuinely stunned, offended and frankly humiliated. FWIW, before we left, I picked up every single sticker in under 10 seconds, because I'm a decent member of society and I intentionally buy my kid stickers that are removable and won't stick to a restaurant's floor or tables. Bistro Vendome: if you find a sticker belonging to my kid, I will personally return and remove it, but I will otherwise never in a million years be back.

The reason for the one star review is that the food took over an hour to arrive to our group. The waitress explained that the kitchen was understaffed and everyone came in at once, but honestly it was still upsetting and frustrating. We ordered the French toast, venison tartine, and the mushroom crepe. Everything tasted good actually BUT after the hour wait for our food, we found a hair in our venison tartine. They did get another one out to us fast but just another problem found after the insane wait for the food. In the end, they did what they could with regards to the bill and apologized profusely for all the issues, but I do feel like the restaurant has some improvements to make as far as staffing and time/guest management. I would just warn you to not come during a busy time until the restaurant becomes more established.

Nothing too strong, as expected from French cuisine. The pasta was a heavy diah but with nice delicate flavors and the moules frites white wine sauce was phenomenal. Our waitress offered us more bread and we soaked it in the white wine sauce. All of these dishes stood well with a bottle of Chablis served to us with our own table-side Ice bucket. We switched to Kronenburg beer when we got an order of the MERGUEZ lamb sausages. A beautiful mix of textures with the dijon mustards sauce, green apple (though the menu said pear, maybe?) and the lemon vinaigrette tossed arugula. The acid in the vinaigrette neutralized the usual characteristic bitterness of the arugula. We ended the night with a shared creme brulee. My company stated it was very sweet and suggested I may not like it...but I think it was because he didn't want to share. Hahaha! It is a very lovley spot.
