Frasca is undoubtedly the best restaurant in Boulder, and most likely all of Colorado. It wins on multiple points in my opinion: - The food - I cant say I have ever had one mouthful of food here that didnt have my eyes rolling back in my head with delight. - The wine - ask for glasses to be paired with you meal, and you will get wines perfectly paired for each dish. - The service - the staff is always there for you - right from the smile at the door, the handling of your coat, any special requests and the in depth knowledge of the region the food is inspired by or the food itself. Ill give you an example. Celebrated my birthday there recently - I booked ahead and asked for a table where I could sit next to my GF instead of across. On arrival, the table wasnt quite ready, so they seated us across from each other, and then moved us to a circular booth for 4-5 people just to give us what we wanted. The server followed us, as did a complementary glass of wine for each of us for the birthday, and topped off by a leaf with "Happy Birthday" scrawled on it in icing. Suggestions: - Book ahead. I have a standing monthly reservation I like this place so much. - Quattro Piatti - choose your 4 courses - Ask for glasses of wine paired with each course. Better than 1 bottle that might not match everything you or others are getting. I wont talk about which dish is best - they are all good I think. Ive never had a bad mouthful. :) Do yourself a favor and treat yourself and others to this gem in Boulder CO ...

Loud. Fun. Good. Descent food in a party atmosphere. What's not to love? Had a good evening here hanging out at the bar. Lots of people watching and a damn good selection of drinks.

The ramen here is not that oily so I like it! The environment is pretty good! Wanna try the rice next time!

Unfortunately customer service was bad. I felt that I didn't want to eat at there.

I was invited by a group of people for dinner at Jiko and was a little apprehensive (African food, what's that?). I was very pleasantly surprised. The table had a variety of dishes and everything was excellent. I really liked the bread that was served, and I had the Filet with the mac & cheese. Great stuff.

So I'm not super picky, I'm just very specific when I know what I like because its hard for me to make decisions. So when I make a decision that "chicken pad Thai" is my favorite dish when it's served extra spicy and with extra veggies, don't F*** it up for me. I counted 1/4 green bell pepper, two thin slices of carrot, and 2 broccoli florets. For an extra $2 I would've expected more color on my plate. Also the food was rather bland; the egg rolls slightly chewy when they should've been crisp, the pad Thai mostly flavorless (tasted like a canola/sesame oil blend, did not taste peanuts AT ALL and the "hot" dish was a mild spicy aftertaste after your pallet is bombarded by flavorless oiled noodles. Nice delivery man, food arrived quickly and hot. I got food in my belly in a timely manner, but that's the only good thing that happened.
