L'Atelier - Boulder

We've been coming to L'Atelier for years, and they're never disappointed! Appetizers are always perfectly prepared, and nicely plated, and the appetizers are always for our pleasure! I recommend this restaurant, service and food are top-notch!

We had a wonderful dinner that celebrated our sons graduation from CU! The food was excellent the service was excellent! The staff was friendly and accommodating. Would definitely recommend!

My wife and I were with L'Atelier before I attended a Boulder Phil performance. L'Atelier is our popular restaurant in Boulder. We have eaten there on a number of occasions and have never been disappointed at the service or the food. On this occasion we started with the excellent tomato-lupster bisque. The head of my wife was the pork salt imbocca and I had my usual, delicious lamb frame. We both were completely satisfied with our decisions and would order them again. L'Atelier has a new host since we ate there last and she was thrilled: bright, friendly welcome and attentive, without being intrusive. The waiter is awarded as usual. We had 5:30 reservations and all made sure that we finished our meals in time to make it a concert. We are very happy to have L'Atelier in Boulder and hope it stays here forever!

Unfortunately this could have been a good experience but in a half empty restaurant on a weeknight, my husband and I were treated like an after thought right from the start. When seated, we were offered water, and assumed someone would be back to take our drink order not long after. Instead, another party was seated after us, where they took their drink order and served them before us. We had to track someone down to order drinks. Then we noticed every other table was being served bread without asking. We had to ask for bread as well. When my meal came out, it was under cooked to my preference. They did promptly take it back and replated it at the correct temperate. The food was very good, but the service was really poor, especially when it wasn’t a busy evening. For the value, we really felt we could have had better service elsewhere.
