Slow night here, but totally worth the visit! The lobster ravioli was incredible...best I've ever had. We also had the drunken mushrooms for an app, which had an Indian spice taste to them and were fantastic. Our last dish was the bouillabaisse, which had a delicious kick to it. We'll definitely be back to eat here again...want to try the lamb chops! Thanks for the great food and impeccable service!

Atelier by Radex is a delightful French restaurant with excellent food, a lovely French atmosphere and great staff. Kate was our wonderful server each time we’ve eaten here. Atelier by Radex is a special restaurant that we can’t wait to return to again and again.

I want to first share that I've lived within 3 blocks of this place for 3 years and have been so, so excited to check out a local spot. Went here with my partner for Restaurant Week this weekend. We made a reservation a week prior for 7:30, got a call at 7:33 from the hostess confirming we were still coming and arrived at 7:35 to be told our table was still occupied and it would be another 5-10 minutes. We got finally got seated more than 40 minutes later, with no text updates or any semblance of hospitality or kindness around the massive delay.The service was shared (and dropped), all the servers seemed in a bad mood, rushed, and unfriendly. My soup was barely lukewarm. I would have sent it back but none of the servers came to check on us for more than 15 minutes after that was served. Then the lobster pasta I got was just plain cold. The only redeeming part of the entire experience was the creme brûlée dessert and the company with me. Worse still, gratuity was automatically included. I would have still tipped 20%, but honestly felt the food was well below par, not nearly worth the price, and the service matched it. I wish I had a more cheerful review, especially for such a nearby spot, but I don't plan to return.

Went from AteliYAY to AteliNAY! We came here for Restaurant Week last year and it was pretty good so we came back this year. Honestly, the atmosphere in here is pretty bad. The dining room is very small and it's always full of elderly wammin screaming at each other because they can't hear themselves or each other. More importantly, however, was we got sick from something we ate here. We had the tartare, the pate, the chicken, and the lobster. Stay away! Not as good as the prices would reflect. Would say go to a better restaurant for numbers like that.

We went for Denver Restaurant week. 3 people ate and it was over $200 dollars, including one glass of wine and a mocktail. The portions were unbelievably small. I had the lobster ravioli and there were 3 pieces total. My partner and friend had the mushroom pasta and the chicken leg. We were discussing how if we paid that much for a regular offered meal we would have had leftovers. Everything tasted good though and the ambience was awesome. Our server was great as well. Denver restaurant week isn't the best for showcasing restaurants anymore unfortunately. It seems as if it is an inconvenience to the restaurant to participate.

While service was generally attentive and polite, and food well prepared when I requested a bit more desert coffee I was told I'd have to pay for another serving, $4.50. I consider requesting additional fees for a 2 person dinner of $219 dinner unnecessary and lacking a higher level of experience. Restaurants of this caliber should not engage patrons in this manner.

Restaurant week here was a bit disappointing. We found the menu over ambitious with many options in the first and second courses that perhaps were too much for the kitchen to deliver. The table bread was dry, bordering on stale and I'd stay away from cocktails and order wine here, as the servers also serve as bartenders. The mushroom soup was delightful, but the mushrooms in oil was confused and not entirely appealing on the palate. The elk was paired with a beautiful red wine sauce with some smoke and the meat was cooked to perfection. The lobster ravioli was the biggest disappointment with unequal thickness causing some bites to be undercooked. The cheese on top and perhaps in the white sauce was far too heavy and there was no acidity to lift the dish. The wilted lettuce in the sauce was gross and the green beans in both entrees were overcooked. The dessert options were simple, but the crème brûlée was poorly executed outside a ramekin and tasted eggy. The service was neutral.

Absolutely to die for! Want for restaurant week - had the tartare, elk tenderloins and the creme brûlée. All were top notch. The elk is one of the best things I've ever eaten. Add the wine pairing (which was perfect) and great service and you get a perfect evening.

We chose Restaurant Week to visit this restaurant. It was lovely. Food was fresh and excellently prepared. The staff was welcoming and our server was friendly. The restaurant is not in our neighborhood but we may go back. The food and service was certainly worthy of a return visit.

This is one of the best restaurants in town!! The food is spectacular, menu is unique and lovely. The restaurant week menu was a reflection of the entire experience not a cheap way to attract clients. Thank you for being true restaurant professionals with great service to boot!!

Awesome experience and great value enjoyed during Denver restaurant week. While they were tasty, our desserts. chocolate cake and the creme brulee, were not traditional. We may have missed it but they were not described for us. Overall, a lovely experience.
