French 75 - Denver, CO

Date of dining experience: July 12, 2018

Place: French 75

Location: 717 17th Street, Suite B, in Denver, CO

Green Hour (Happy Hour) Appetizers: Again, Audry and I split a number of dishes.

  1. F75 Pomme Frites ($4) - Very good skinny French fries.
  2. Fritto Mixte ($7) - Shrimp, Calamari, and Aioli.
  3. Moules ($6) - Buerre, Garlic, and Parsley.
  4. Nicoise Salade ($9) - Seared Tuna, Potato, Egg, and Sherry Vinaigrette. 
  5. Tarte Flambee ($6) - Carmelized Onions, Bacon, and Gruyere. 

Green Hour Drinks: There were so many options, we had to try a few of them.

  1. House White Wine ($5) - A beautiful, crisp blend with the taste of a Sauvignon Blanc and the smoothness of a Chardonnay.
  2. House Red Wine ($5) - A very delicious blend, similar to my favorite red, Cabernet Franc.
  3. Stella Artois Draft ($5) - A standard for any establishment that carries it on draft.
  4. Absinthe - A delicious pour of floral absinthe, served to taste with ice water dripped over a cube of sugar.

Sides ($6 each): Ratatouille and Goat Cheese Creamed Spinach. We were getting full from our appetizer eats and drinks, so we decided just to order a few sides to accompany our meal made of sampling all the appetizers.

Audry and I very much enjoy the French culture and cuisine, so eating at this restaurant was a given for us as soon as we saw it come up in a Google search. If you are in the area and would love a delicious meal, this is the place for you. I highly recommend the Nicoise Salade with the House Red Wine. You will not be disappointed. Try it for yourself and let me know what you think. Enjoy!
