Amazing service and incredible food! The seabass was the best I’ve ever had — perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The mango dessert was light, refreshing, and delicious. And the octopus? Absolutely outstanding — tender and flavorful. Highly recommend for a special evening in Aspen!
Betula is truly an exceptional restaurant in the heart of Aspen. Their menu strikes the perfect balance between French elegance and bold Latin flavors — each dish is thoughtful, vibrant, and beautifully presented. The cocktails are creative and expertly crafted (the Yellow Paloma is a standout, and I'm dreaming of the return of the Low Hanging Fruit!). The wine list is extensive and impeccably curated. With consistently excellent service and a stylish, energetic ambiance, Betula never disappoints.

What a lovely evening! Beautiful restaurant with doting staff and amazing service. We opted for caviar and champagne and were completely pleased!

Food was quite good but wow the service was terrible. Our waitress knew nothing about the menu. She had to ask the kitchen at least five different times what was and wasn’t gluten free. I also asked her what entree was best between three options and her response was “well this one is the newest so if you like new get that one.” I had to constantly ask for water. This place could be great the service is far below sub-par.

Let's start with their signature cucumber cocktail, you would think the waitress would ask if we liked it by the state of the drink being left as an adorment on table. Thier salmon ceviche is interesting but interesting doesn't equate to good, but it's edible if you're feeling risky. Their elk steak was nice, unfortunately it arrived luke warm at our table. The artic fish was good but not good enough to warrant a second visit. Unfortunately the tastiest item was the complimentary soap. Is it the worst restaurant in aspen, no but for this price do yourself a favor and select a venue that understands DJs are for night clubs, waiters aren't on a hike, chairs are supposed to be comfortable and the food should be good over experimental.

First of all, make sure your in one of the side rooms. The main dining room is too loud to have a conversation, when busy. Service is very good, but not excellent; ie very little butter for bread, olive oil and balsamic provided 5 to 10 minutes after bread service, and several other little things. I love and get foie gras every where, their presentation is one of the poorest I've had. Hamachi was excellent, but not worth $46. Sea bass was excellent, but small portion with mushy eggplant underneath. Not worth $78. Rack of lamb was good, but rest of plate not so good; not worth $74. Potatoes dauphinois was excellent. Bottom line: it was good, but not excellent, especially for the price

Delicious food and cocktails. Wife and I had a wonderful date here. Nice dj music in the back ground

Betula probably means you can bet on a good night Amazing ambience and one of the places to be seen in Aspen Great DJ some nights I never go there and find a favourite main course unlike other restaurants.
All the food is good but I have just failed to identify a signature dish that I love to go back for
Wine menu is not on the website probably because the prices are some of the dearest of any of the restaurants that we are at. About $100 dearer than others for a $400 plus wine from what I compared on my go to favourites with other premium aspen restaurants

Atmosphere is excellent but service was very slow with very few touches or effort from the server. Food was underwhelming for a place with white table cloths and $60 pork. A great place to wine and dine and be social but underwhelming from a dining experience standpoint.
Celebrated my finance and I’s 3 year anniversary. The staff was engaged in making sure we felt welcome and valued in their establishment. The food was absolutely amazing and I was very sad when the dinner ended. I wanted to do it all over again! Thank you Betula for wonderful food and memories. The best!

Every dish was an intentional work of art. They clearly care about details in the kitchen. The menu was well organized and thoughtful. I watched the staff stress on perfection, and although I wouldn't say the experience was perfect, the effort filled the gaps. Quality is possible from the top down, and whoever is running this place expects a lot from their staff, and it shows. Absorbing this matters. This restaurant has character which matters as well.
