The restaurant is very beautiful decorated and has a peaceful environment to it like if you were in a beautiful forest. The food was absolutely delicious.

Took my aunt who loves French food here for Sunday brunch. We didn't have a reservation so the wait…read morewas about 25 min for a bar seat - understandable. The interior of the restaurant is very cute and they have interesting restrooms. Espresso machine was not working so no milk or espresso drinks offered - not sure why that wasn't a priority to get up and running before opening for brunch. 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.

The bread was airy with a fantastic crust, although it was a bit more reminiscent of a sourdough (I love sourdough). I will say that they have a decent happy hour menu. The fries were tasty and I liked the bit of crunchy on top of the deviled egg. I thought the portion of salmon was very small for the price. And the carrots and parsnips were tasty but very oily. Overall, there were no standout flavors for me in any of the bites here.

Few hospitality experiences manage to operate like a perfectly wound Swiss timepiece while…read moresimultaneously enveloping you in the velvet warmth of an eccentric relative's living room, yet my recent two-night birthday escape to Denver achieved precisely this rare equilibrium. To dine at Chez Maggy and navigate the hospitality ecosystem of The Thompson Denver is to step into a meticulously curated cinematic universe where every gesture is deliberate, every color palette feels intentional, and human kindness is treated as the ultimate luxury asset. It is an environment where staff do not merely anticipate your desires; they dismantle the very need to harbor desires in the first place, operating on a frequency of predictive generosity that leaves one feeling delightfully disarmed. At the absolute epicenter of this symphonic choreography stand two incomparable individuals, Jason, the Food and Beverage Manager, and Bailey, an exceptional server whose presence turns a standard dinner service into an event of genuine human connection. Jason operates with the crisp, unflappable precision of a master conductor, moving through the bustling terrain of The Thompson with a quiet, elegant professionalism that anchors the entire operation. In an industry too often prone to transactional coldness, Jason possesses the rare and vintage gift of treating hospitality as a high art form rooted in absolute sincerity. Upon my arrival, he greeted me by name with a warmth so authentic it instantly erased the frantic static of travel. This was not the rehearsed familiarity of a corporate script, but the intentional, sharp memory of a true professional who understands that a person's name is the finest note in any conversation. Throughout the stay, his oversight of the food and beverage program manifested in a series of flawless iterations, ensuring that every detail was exact, every transition was seamless, and every guest felt singularly important. Jason does not simply manage a department; he curates an atmosphere of safety and sophisticated comfort, balancing a sharp, dignified executive presence with a deep, accessible kindness that elevates the entire hotel standard. Steps away at Chez Maggy, Bailey transforms the dining room into a theater of radical hospitality, offering a masterclass in service that goes far beneath the surface of menus and silverware. Bailey is quite frankly exceptional, possessing a luminous energy and a sharp, witty intellect that commands immediate affection. What elevates Bailey from a brilliant server to an unforgettable human being is a profound capacity for empathy, delivered through the sharing of an awesome lived experience that instantly bridges the gap between stranger and friend. Rather than maintaining the rigid, invisible wall so common in upscale dining, Bailey engages with a rich, textured perspective on life that mirrors our own complexities, validating our shared human journeys with effortless grace. This unique willingness to connect on a soulful level creates an immediate sense of home, wrapping the table in a cozy, familiar embrace that makes you forget you are sitting in a public restaurant. Bailey reads the emotional landscape of a table with astonishing accuracy, dishing out comfort, laughter, and brilliant recommendations in equal, perfectly timed portions. Together, Jason and Bailey represent the absolute pinnacle of what modern luxury should aspire to be, proving that the most memorable aspect of any journey is never the brick and mortar, but the remarkable people who inhabit it. Their combined kindness, paired with an uncanny ability to anticipate every unspoken whim before it even materializes as a thought, transformed this birthday celebration into a masterpiece of joy. To find one individual who remembers your name and treats your presence as an honor is a stroke of luck; to find two within the same establishment who make you feel deeply understood and completely at home is an absolute triumph of hospitality. For anyone seeking an escape defined by clever sophistication, brilliant conversation, and a level of care that feels both deeply nostalgic and entirely refreshing, look no further than the unparalleled team of Jason and Bailey at The Thompson and Chez Maggy.

At at Chez Maggy for dinner and breakfast over the same weekend while doing a staycation. The food…read morewas good, nothing to write home about, the service was great and the restaurant is super cute, but I will say I was disappointed to see that some menu items have changed. For instance, the steak frites was not available to order for dinner but available for lunch and the weekend brunch. Also, they took the pancakes off the brunch menu which to me is criminal -- but they have it available for weekday breakfasts. I don't know, to me these seemed like unnecessary changes, and as somebody who booked this hotel specifically to enjoy these menu items at this restaurant, I just felt disappointed. Highlights for me where the hamachi and the beef tartare at dinner; the avocado toast has a very weird taste profile with the pickled carrots so I would stay away from that if you like classic avocado toast.

French omelette was rich, cooked to perfection. Salad was fresh and we appreciated the light dressing. Pate was a touch sweet which I really liked. It was very yummy with the buttered toast. The ricotta doughnuts came out very warm and were moist and delightful. You really couldn't even tell there was ricotta. Overall a very nice experience and I look forward to coming back to try their mussels and frites.

We even spoke to the table beside us who experienced the same tepid soup. If I'm eating French onion soup I expect to lose a few taste buds to the heat. The steak and frites came...cold. Beautiful cut of meat but it was literally as cold as the plate it came on. The hostess...cold. She made comments and even jokes about us making a same day reservation. Yikes. I'm sorry? I want to love this place and the people so much but it's like that one boyfriend that just keeps coming up a little too...short. Disappointing and forgetful.

The Caesar salad was excellent with anchovies and an interesting twist - grapes where you'd normally expect banana peppers. Nice variety of seating with tables, bar seating, and comfortable couches for drinks. I had the shrimp risotto, which was outstanding. Dessert was Crêpe Suzette, a classic I'd never tried before: thin pancakes folded with apricot jam, topped with flaming orange liqueur and crème fraîche. Have fun and try it, I dare you!

I got the kiddos all set up with the staff at IGB for gaming, and once everything was rolling, I ducked into Le French for Le Lunch. At that time of the day, the bar was quiet, but the service was, as it is in the dining room, excellent. I enjoy their take on clean modern French food with some subtle African influences. My particular favourites are: Mussels, Nicoise Salad, and the way they excel at desserts. In all honesty, they might be the best dessert makers of all the French restaurants in Denver. The best times at Le French are the quiet nights and just after the lunch rush, when you can sit and enjoy the space & relax with a good meal.

Finally, having time to catch another GREAT Chef's cuisine, to find on June 14th 2025, Noisette - owner Lillian (Chef Extraordinaire) is closing her doors. Last chance on Saturday. Today June 13th, it was a pleasure to walk into a very elegant, well designed Noisette, after reading incredible reviews. I met Lillian almost immediately, the news did not hit from her. Neither do I have a TV or read Westword, yet for a few moments Lillian graced me with some somber words: "It's the economy, (We guess) We can't stay in business past these 3 years!! What can we do to help local businesses and each other in horrific times? Support each other! Be Gracious as Lillian! Listen to what they have to say, be understanding and if you have some more supportive ideas, Be For Each Other!!

My own tartine was a thick cut slice of some carby goodness. The pastries ran out so quickly though so we didn't get to snag any of it. And I'm not sure I'll get any before this spot closes in June. 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 news of this spot closing also seemed to impact the staff; I felt that their energy was focused on serving us with a smile. Hopefully they find good safe landing spots.
