Our reservation was for 8 we did arrive early and we were able to sit at the bar until our table was ready. The bar was a little busy at the time we arrived so we didn’t get asked if we wanted anything to drink for about 10 minutes. When we finally did get seated a little after 8, we followed the owner to our table. He was not too chatty with us. It was our first time there and we wanted a little more history on the place. Our waitress came and took our order we had time to look at the menu while we waited at the bar. I had the T-bone steak with the sugar spice, with twice baked potato and a house salad. My husband had the 16oz Ribeye with sugar spice, baked potato and vegetable soap, and Firecracker shrimp. We had our bread which was good. Then we noticed the table next to ours had their salads already and we were sat before them. I was worried that all the food would come out together. We got the waitress attention and she immediately brought out the salad and soup. Then the food came right after that. The steaks were delicious with the sugar spice, but they can only cook the meat to medium well and that was too pink for my liking. They can only cook certain steaks to medium well with their caramelized sugar spice or it will over cook the steaks. It was a nice experience to try. The twice baked potato was nothing, but a potato baked twice with sour cream, cheese, bacon, and onions on top. We had to ask the waitress for refills on our drinks. Overall it was a fairly good night. The lighting was set a little darker so when I would try to take pictures for the review my flash would go off which I don’t like because I feel I am disturbing other around me. I would go back and pray I get a better experience. It is a pricy experience.

What a disappointment. Been here twice before, but this time disappointed in food and service. Staff was unfriendly from host to management. Server was nice enough but wasn’t around. Took them 10-15 minutes to realize my 65$ steak was overcooked. Their remedy was to cook me a new one, but by the time that was offered it was too late. Server came back and let us know they’d be taking care of our app and would like to buy us a dessert. Too little too late. We had to ask to speak to the manager. She was pretty rude and unapologetic. Yall ruined what was meant to be a special occasion dinner. It’s pretty upsetting. Will not continue to recommend. Total bummer as this was a place we looked forward to going to, and always recommend.

I just wanted to write this review because I’ve been here about 3 times and I always have a great time and excellent steak. We were celebrating a friends engagement the time ran away from us but the level of care and patience was wonderful. Highly recommend if you are looking for excellent long running steakhouse. I would recommend the wagyu, the t-bone and the sugar rub. All around will definitely be back.

Went for our anniversary, and it was great. Pretty pricey but worth it for special occasions. The service was very accommodating and gave us a nice anniversary dessert.
I should have ordered the steak. The place is very 1970s and the chicken was period correct. Our cocktails were very good. I will be back and next time will try the sugar finished steak (and skip the vegetables). The interior was authentic and had a good vibe. Server was great.

Whenever I’m in Denver I always got to stop by Bastiens! Start off with a great cocktail, scallops wrapped in bacon, great wedge salad, steaks are always delicious and cooked perfectly, steak fries are great!! Bread pudding at the end of the dinner is amazing. Lara usually waits on us if you sit on the main level, she’s great. They are going on 90 years in business and I wish them continued success so we can keep coming back. Thanks!

First time here and it was awesome. Cannot wait to come back! Our steaks were cooked perfectly and ‘LC’ was an exceptional server. Overall outstanding first experience.
Food is always amazing. Servers are always friendly. It can get loud in the evenings and on weekends.

Had the T-Bone special with the sugar rub, the twice baked potato, red chili and the Cesar salad. First time eating here but it was fantastic and for sure will be back to enjoy another sugar steak. I was worried the sugar flavor might over power the steak but it’s a very mild sugar taste and it’s not enough to detour you from enjoying your meal. The creme brûlée was wonderful.

Literally one of the best steaks I've ever had. The stuffed mushrooms were also amazing. Vibe is very old school and on the casual side. Very good value. Recommend you book because they do get quite busy and some tables are significantly better than others.

Definitely do not go here lol. Bastien’s is the best, very cool atmosphere, excellent drinks. We go often and have been for years…enjoy the steaks, stroganoff, wedge salad, stuffed mushrooms, ever changing specialty mashers. Everything we’ve tried from the menu has been delicious, can’t wait till the next time!
