If you love the feel of Paris, then you'll have to stop by Brasserie Ten Ten! Ambiance is perfectly set up with amazing attention to detail with that French bistro authenticity and charm. The service is incredible and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The food is incredible and presented like you would expect from a French chef. Not a lot of plant based options, however, the Beet Salad with vinaigrette is outstanding, so there is that to enjoy. The flavors of sweet and salty are balanced perfectly! The colors and vibrancy also made it picture worthy. They offer an incredible wine selection that will suit everyone's tastes and preferences. Also, if you love coffee, their roast is delicious and it's the best ending to a lovely meal. Don't miss this place if you want a Parisian-style experience! read more

Brasserie Ten Ten feels increasingly rare now. Even in very good restaurants, actual tablecloths have become uncommon. At lunch, rarer still. So when you settle into Brasserie Ten Ten, with its white linen, substantial silverware, mirrors, low conversational buzz, and faint 1920s salon energy, you will notice. There's something a little Gertrude Stein about the place: people lingering, talking, drinking and eating well, behaving as if the outside world can wait. It feels slightly Parisian, in the best way. Refined but lived in. A room designed for appetite and conversation. If cigarettes were still allowed, you could almost imagine someone chain smoking over a third glass of wine while arguing about literature or the affair they're having. But this is still Boulder, where the fantasy stops just short of the inevitable side-eye and civic disapproval. And then there is the gauze-wrapped lemon. The first time I ever saw one of those mesh bundles tied up for squeezing over seafood, I thought it was the height of sophistication and luxury. The gauze has the faint sexiness of pantyhose while also serving a very practical purpose. A factory worker's kid like me being mesmerized by a lemon condom probably tells you something about aspiration in America. I started with the pâté, which was exactly the right kind of decadent. I paid the extra charge to swap the crostini for bread, which was absolutely the correct decision. I ate about a third and boxed the rest before things got irresponsible. The Boulder influence...nah. The accompaniments were classic: grainy mustard, tiny olives, and a small pile of pickled vegetables cutting through all that pâté richness. The bouillabaisse was mostly lovely. The seafood was cooked expertly, which matters in a dish where every type requires slightly different timing. The shrimp were especially sweet. I would have liked more cod, which felt a little stingy, and while the saffron broth was flavorful, it leaned more tomato-forward than I personally prefer. Still, between the mussels, shrimp, cod, rouille-slathered toast, and that absurdly elegant lemon situation, the fisherman's stew delivered exactly the kind of brasserie pleasure I came searching for. Service at the bar was confident and relaxed. Two bartenders understood the balance between attentiveness and hovering. Not doting, which I don't need, but every need was met. Real napkins. A dedicated, and attended, host stand. People who seemed comfortable in the room instead of performing hospitality theater. Not an everyday lunch. You notice the prices. You should. But every once in a while, it's good to sit somewhere that still believes lunch can stretch a little too long, conversation matters, and a gauze-wrapped lemon can still feel faintly glamorous. There may be no cigarette smoke, no Left Bank argument unfolding over wine, no real salon except the one you briefly imagine. But Brasserie Ten Ten still knows how to make lunch feel like an act of civilization: linen, appetite, conversation, and just enough theatre to make the afternoon seem...negotiable. Gertrude Stein probably would've approved. read more

We had lovely dinner with close friend and family. We enjoyed the food, as usual. I thought there would be more beef options. The service was good too. We lucked out, we were sat at ample sized table, it was loud, but we were still able to hear everyone at our table. And for dessert we ordered beignets and crème brûlée both were yummy! And, I forgot and didn't take any pictures of food. read more

Well it was super! Great service and super great ambiance but the food was excellente! I had the fish and chips and it was the best EVER! Fresh, light fry and hot. Very tasty! The frites were so tasty and great also. Wife had the cheese crepe, shrimp cocktail and french dip all on the HH!

Delightful light lunch, after participating in a medical experiment nearby... but, more seriously... I've been here before, and enjoyed the quiet ambience, and elegant menu. Today my partner and I started off with a couple of rich and flavorful lattes, which really hit that early afternoon hangry spot. I liked the look of the brown sugar lumps that came with, and our waiter was nice enough to give me a ramekin to take the unused few home. For our light lunch, we enjoyed sharing a delicious chicken salad sandwich, with a hint of curry. Overall a super fun afternoon lunch stop, before hitting the road for the long drive home. read more

Brasserie Ten Ten - Lovely spot right on Walnut St in downtown Boulder, with patio seating under some pleasant shade trees, and an awning. - French Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

We hadn't been to Brasserie Ten Ten for a few months. It was obvious right away that something had changed. They were very cold over the phone, as was the hostess. We just figured they needed training on welcoming people-maybe an off day. It was obvious that the energy had changed. THEN, the food was just okay. Our usual entrees were on a new menu but they were NOT good. Brasserie Ten Ten had been consistently fabulous for years, especially in 2025. Perhaps they had a substitute chef the last time we were there. Our only guess is that it is under new ownership or a new chef that doesn't understand why people have returned for years. It wasn't very busy on a normally busy day and now we know why. Sadly, they changed it and not for the better. read more

Four of us went for dinner when we visited Boulder and Brasserie Ten Ten did not disappoint. The food was excellent, as was the service. We ordered: --Steak frites --Brasserie burger --Brique chicken Each dish was tasty and well-prepared. Most fine-dining restaurants that we've tried in Boulder are disappointing and overpriced. Brasserie Ten Ten offers great food at fair prices. We will be back. read more

My girlfriend and I ate at the bar today and Jack the bartender was amazing!!! We celebrated with him on his level 1 graduation from somelier school! He not only helped us navigate the wine list, but helped us navigate our cheese platter that we enjoyed with the rest of our wine after lunch. What a lovely afternoon we had with him and we will be back! And very soon. Come visit him.... You will have the best time. read more

Great experience overall. We got reservations, but it appeared there would be no wait on a late evening for us. We were seated right away. The interior is clean and elegant. The staff were all dressed in uniforms and were very kind and professional. Our server, Jack, was especially awesome and personable. He has such knowledge and experiences, which made our interactions with him very engaging. The price is quite high, so I would not recommend this restaurant for the budget-minded diners out there. Despite the price, I would say that the restaurant offers fair value for the great experience you can get. I also would not recommend this for diners who are not looking for a full fine dining experience because they'll be paying for one. One caveat though, I hear they have a happy hour. Food, for the most part, was impressive. We did a full experience, starting with charcuterie and tartare with burgundy for appetizer. The tartare was like a typical tartare, but came with potato chips. Not particularly mind blowing for me. The charcuterie was awesome. The meat was of very high quality, and the 3 cheeses were unique enough and interesting. For example, black garlic manchego, and another cheese that was made with a process involving olive oil. I'm a sucker for goat cheese, but the rest of my table did not care for goat cheese, so I was mega spoiled with all of that amazing goat cheese. The toasted bread that came with charcuterie was perfect too. Crisp, not too hard, not too soft. The burgundy that Jack recommended was perfection. It paired so well with the appetizers. It was especially awesome because it was a burgundy that didn't remind us of a typical burgundy. Had more sour notes to it that played well with the cheeses, but stood up to the meats. Next we did oysters and sancerre wine. Excellent quality oysters. Mingonette and cocktail sauces were made well. The wine pair well with the oysters too. We actually chose sancerre wine to peg 3 birds with 1 stone, intending for it to match with our seafood, salad, and entree. Salad and French onion soup were next. Salad was simple and refreshing. Excellently dressed. The soup was deep and rich. After this, entree. Couple of us ordered the chicken, and one of us got the steak au poivre. Everything cooked excellently, but that chicken stood out. The skin was crisp, the breast was somehow not dry, and everything was well-seasoned. The accompaniments on the plate were so beautifully presented, and everything came together for the most well-integrated dish. The sauce actually brought everything together, matched well with the chicken, and played with the sancerre in harmonious fashion. A real highlight. For dessert, espresso, lemon tart, pot de creme, and chocolate ice cream. Espresso was made well, coming with brown sugar rocks and citrus peel. Chantilly cream were excellent. Lemon tart and pot de creme were delicious, but didn't really distinguish themselves from any other well-made lemon tart and pot de creme. Nothing to complain about, but also nothing earth-shattering. We ended up staying a bit past closing time, but we were never rushed. A real 5-star experience, and I'll be looking forward to my next visit with friends. read more

Cool looking spot. Service was poor. Manager was not friendly. We had an addition to our party and manager insisted we couldn't add. So we had to leave. read more

had a group of six needed to add two seats at 4:38 on a Tuesday and we're told that we couldn't be accommodated when I looked around the room and there was only 12 covers. They said there was a party of 30 coming in later on in a party of 10 and they could not see us even though we had a reservation and just wanted to add to management didn't seem to do anything about it or want to do anything about it just frankly told us that we couldn't come really poor service for sure. Will let other people know. read more

A pleasant dining experience after a day at the St Julien Spa. How were we so lucky to have stumbled upon this gem for happy hour specials. The restaurant was beautiful and our food was amazing. The service was beyond!!! Our server Jason and team were very attentive and made us feel like we were the only ones in the midst of a busy restaurant. If our belly's could handle it we would've tried everything, but that was just not possible. For food we ordered Moules A La Mariniere, a dozen oysters, pomme frites, fish and chips, gnocchi, crapes, fish and chips, French onion soup, brie puffs, and profiteroles. My highlights were the French onion soup and oysters. If I'm boulder you should definitely check out this place for a drink and some good eats! read more

Brasserie Ten Ten is more than just a restaurant for me--it's filled with amazing memories. As an international student at the University of Colorado at Boulder back in 2008, my friends and I frequented this spot for its incredible food, drinks, and lively atmosphere. In October 2009, I brought my (now) wife here for our first date, making it an unforgettable part of our story. Even though we've moved to Houston, Texas, we make sure to visit Brasserie Ten Ten every time we're in Boulder. On our most recent visit in September 2024, we brought our 7-month-old son to show him where his parents had their first date. The food is consistently amazing--my go-to is the Moules À La Marinière, with perfectly steamed mussels in a delicious broth of lemon, crème fraîche, thyme, and butter. I love pairing it with their sea salt fries (Frites) and dipping them in the mussel broth. The quality, ambiance, and exceptional service have never wavered over the years. Brasserie Ten Ten is more than a restaurant; it's a cherished part of our lives. Highly recommended for anyone in Boulder looking for excellent food and service! read more

I was looking for somewhere to eat after a nearby hike and came across Brasserie Ten Ten, even though it was very busy the hostesses were able to get us a table. My boyfriend and I each got a cocktail, and honestly we weren't the biggest fans of them. The one my boyfriend got tasted like straight licorice and was generally off putting. I enjoyed the food though, we started with a couple of oysters and the tartare de filet mignon. For my entree I went with the salade de Lyonnaise. There were a lot of good sounding items on the menu I would like to try if I ever came back. The food was great but nothing extraordinary, my favorite was the tartare de filet mignon. read more

Made reservations for a weekend brunch and was very pleased. The vibes were nice, and waiters were very kind and knowledgeable. We started with the ham and cheese croissant and the onion soup. Both were quite good, the croissant was super soft and flaky, not too hard crunchy you know? I will say pretty much everything tasted just a tad over salted for my taste. French dip was lovely, the pretzel bun was super soft and the roast beef was nice and tender. I'd return, I'd love to try their dinner! read more

Wife started with oysters and particularly enjoyed the east coast variety. I had the onion soup which lived up to its reviews. She ate the steak frites and found them ok with the shoestring fries very tasty. I ordered the burger cooked perfectly medium rare. At 1/3 pound it is huge, but I managed. Atmosphere is cozy on a busy Wednesday evening with superior service. Not for the faint of wallet though telling them of our birthday celebration earned us a wonderful pastry filled with ice cream and a chocolate drizzle. I will return, but probably only on special occasions. read more

Overpriced for the quality, it was incredibly average French food and I get the sense there are 1-2 good entrees, and the rest are meh. Fire alarm went off towards the end of the meal and wasn't turned off until the fire department arrived 15 mins later (if there was actually a fire the restaurant would be chalked). Our waiter also noted this is not the first time this has happened. We had our plates cleared, got a dessert menu, paid for the check, and left before the alarm was turned off, it may still be on‍. Also they didn't comp anything for the hearing loss. I can't say I'll ever be coming back to brasserie zero / ten Update: they comped our meal so I'm bumping to a 3/5 for extremely average fresh cuisine at an above average price (pre comp) read more

Fantastic from start to finish. The restaurant is a beautifully appointed clean space. Food was prepared and timed perfectly. Prices were very reasonable and the wine list was excellent. The star of the evening however was our server Robbert. Hands down the best service we received over our 3 day stay in Boulder. He was perfectly polished and familiar at the same time. We will 100% be back next time we are I. Town. read more

Food: top notch and 98% perfect. The best thing is that if it is off in ANY way the kitchen will fix it and do even better. Happy Hour: one of my favorites in Boulder. Wine: amazing selection and Jason, the som, is fantastic and knowledgeable without being pedantic or condescending. Rare qualities for a som. Service: I love Wade. He makes me laugh even when the world is gloomy. He'll go above and beyond for you even if you are just passing by. Ambiance: one of my favorite bar seating environments ever. Beautiful flower arrangements and great music. read more

Brasserie Ten Ten - Specially made haricot vert. - French Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Super solid option off Pearl street in Central Boulder. went there on a Wednesday evening and place was fully booked. our server was knowledgeable on the menu and did all the right things. Food wise, it was pretty good, but like most places in Colorado, not off the charts. The salad was very fresh, but severely under-dressed (the garden salad). We both got the Steak Frites, and it was perfectly executed. Orderred the cheese board/Charcuterie and was pretty good, but not outstanding. The Carrots side dish were great and the mushrooms uninspiring. I had a very nice beer and my friend had a glass of wine. I didn't notice until later the "kitchen value fee" of 3.9%. not sure why that was there and why it wasn't articulated to me, but now i know. Would return and try some other things. read more

We went for their happy hour which is from 3-5.30pm. I was highly surprised by the amazing tapas like selection of food and everything was surprisingly delicious!!! I will definitely be back. The Brie Puffs were warm and gooey with sweet from the jam and salty from the cheese. I love how it's in one bite no fuss no mess and you get the goodness of it all. The chicken liver pate did not disappoint! I did like that it came with other condiments too like olives and pickled onion and jam so you can make your own yummy toast. The burrata was just as expected but again a solid choice. The tartare was nice and light and refreshing. It did need a bit more salt/fresh citrus squeeze and it would surely be that much more refreshing! And to my surprise they gave us a free awesome cake for my birthday. That cake was delish!! No idea what it was cold but gosh if I see a chocolate ganache like desert on the menu I am surely getting that All in all this was one of the best happy hour menus I have ever seen and it's DAILY! read more

Just finished a lovely lunch at Brasserie Ten Ten. Our meal was delicious and the waitress was extremely attentive. My one complaint was they had a separate menu for the daily specials. Everything had the price listed except for the charcuterie plate. unfortunately, I didn't notice until after we ordered it. That too was delicious however for $39 I didn't think it was completely worth it. I pride myself on charcuterie plates and that lacked some food decisions and and additions. perhaps add some nuts, olives and maybe a small piece of chocolate. read more

I typically love Brasserie ten ten but I was a little underwhelmed this last visit. The craft cocktail I got called the Lavender 75 did not even seem to have any lavender. It was also a super simple presentation that did not appear to have much to it. If I'm going to pay $16 for a craft cocktail, I expect it to be complex and thoughtfully curated. Also the drink service was very slow and our server, while sweet, also seemed somewhat aloof. Their menu was odd, not having pricing listed for the pasta dishes on both menus, non descriptive and/or confusing verbiage on the specials, leading to me ordering something that was completely different than what I thought. The server seemed a bit new and somewhat jumbled when I was surprised with my order. I will say that her manager was very swift in ensuring that I was happy with my food which I appreciated. Overall, it wasn't bad but just seemed a bit off. read more

Brasserie is a classic Boulder staple. Their dishes and service are consistently great. We celebrated a big birthday and there was a live band. I would've given 4.5 stars, but rounded up.

The food recently isn't what it used to be! My friend I met there used to go a few times a week and our last visit was likely our last visit.

We won't be going back anytime soon. read more

I'm not going back to this restaurant ever agian. It's very expensive, and the portion size of every meal were very SMALL! The appetizers were a joke lol! Even a kid would complain about the portion of size. When I got my meal, I was shocked. I ordered the Poulet Bocuse. It was tasty, but again the portion size was too small. I could have made it for only $10 . The Steak and Frites looked like a appetizer. The steak was so tiny, and the Frites were also a tiny portion. The photos on their website looked larger than the actual portion size. Even the wine was very small too. I don't recommend this place at all. You can tell only the locals eat there, and it was pretty empty. read more
