Denver foodie: Michelin-recommended LoHi restaurant announces last day of service
DENVER (KDVR) — Another one of Denver's Michelin-recommended restaurants is closing its doors after just a few years in operation. Noisette Restaurant and Bakery, located on Navajo Street in Denver's Highland neighborhood, opened its doors in 2022 on the ground floor of the Lumina Apartment building. The restaurant announced on Instagram that its last service will be on Saturday, June 14. Breakfast Inn, a popular Denver restaurant, is closing after 50 years 'This has been an incredibly difficult decision, and one we did not make lightly,' Noisette posted. 'From the beginning, our goal was to bring a wonderful dining experience to Denver — one rooted in French tradition, warm hospitality, and a deep love of food. We are proud of what we built and profoundly grateful for the support, enthusiasm, and kindness we've received from all of you.' The Michelin guide describes the restaurant as 'sophisticated and spacious with a separate patisserie up front,' but said the meals made by Chefs Tim Lu and Lillian Cho, who were trained in New York restaurants, are 'precisely crafted dishes bound by tradition while reflecting a creative approach.' Recently, the restaurant participated in Mile High Asian Food Week, presenting a pre-fixed menu with seven courses showcasing upscale Korean dining, including homemade kimchi. 'Foie gras au torchon with a light coating of Björn's lavender honey and a Port reduction is served with a buttery brioche for a classic take,' the Michelin guide states. 'Next, a lush beef entrecôte enthralls with tender meat topped with petals of sweet roasted pearl onions and a Bordelaise sauce that offers indulgence in every last bite. End on a sweet note with tarte tropézienne aux fraises, a light-as-air brioche filled with diplomat cream and strawberry jam.' The guide also named Noisette's Tarte Tropézienne aux Fraises in its top three Michelin Guide inspectors' favorite desserts in Colorado. The restaurant cited economic reasons for the closure. 'Unfortunately, like many in our industry, we've faced ongoing challenges in the current economic climate that have made it unsustainable for us to continue,' the restaurant stated on Instagram. 'While we're sad to say goodbye, we are also filled with gratitude for the memories and moments we've shared with our guests and team.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
