Bear Den Aspen - Denver

We have gone out. we were the only customers in the restaurant. I think this restaurant is really for eating after 20 o'clock. we were there at 6:00, decided to go elsewhere.

As always, nice eating and impeccable service. grateful to have this jewel in our city.

Eating was expensive, but very bland. we both had the halibut that was cooked in banana leaves. no flame. no seasoning.

I would absolutely recommend Joonas. The atmosphere was amazing, eclectic and unique. The drinks were beautiful. Great wine list. Food was delicious. Perfect place for a romantic date night.

We really wanted to like this as a new spot. The cocktails were good unique. Unfortunately, there was only one other table there despite it being Labor Day weekend. The build out is great and with better management might be able to turn a crowd. But, for now, it just does not command the current price point. We split the chicken tandoori entree, which was and only came with one drum and thigh and was below average. Small touches (like placing our sparkling water far away and then re-filling our glasses with tap) made the lack of experienced oversight and training pretty apparent, especially in a market like Aspen. I hope they figure it out before re-opening for winter. But we unfortunately are not likely to return when there are many good established restaurants in town.
