"Spoil your favorite Francophile with a Christmas Eve splurge at this Cherry Creek bistro, which is preparing a three-course prix fixe menu for $155 per person whose options range from Hudson Valley foie gras mousse to seared Alaskan halibut in kumquat beurre blanc with delicata squash puree and leeks to vanilla bûche de Noël." - Eater Staff
"Where La Merise is quaint, Le Bilboquet is glitzy: The lavish decor is an invitation to indulge, while the modern-leaning French menu all but insists upon it. Foie gras mousse, Wagyu tartare, and duck confit go without saying; so does a mostly French wine list that rarely dips below $100 per bottle. But the people-watching alone is worth the price of admission — and so are humbler surprises like the poached egg–topped lentil salad." - Eater Staff
"When Le Bilboquet opened in 2019 in Cherry Creek, Denver’s swankiest neighborhood, it became a go-to spot for wealthy transplants and the local cool kids cursing the wealthy transplants. The French restaurant is all white tablecloths, over-the-top bouquets, and pampered service—this is definitely the kind of place that folds your napkin when you go to the bathroom. It’s the spot to go when you’re craving a perfect duck confit, escargot bathing in garlic butter, and a bottle of something bubbly—and don’t mind dropping $100 or so per person (depending on how much of that bubbly you drink).

"With seatings from 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., this French restaurant in Cherry Creek is hosting an extravagant three-course meal for $95 per person. Choose from dishes like oysters on the half-shell with horseradish and mignonette or truffled butternut-squash soup; roast turkey with all the fixings or le poulet Cajun in beurre blanc with fries; and profiteroles or brown sugar–walnut tart with caramel ice cream." - Ruth Tobias
