Famille
5-Course Rockies-Infused French Tasting Event
Opened in March 2021, this sophisticated yet relaxed restaurant, housed inside the boutique Origin Hotel in downtown Westminster, is a vibrant expression of “French fusion.” Otherwise put, Executive Chef Lindsey Ryan takes classic French dishes and reimagines them with a Colorado state of mind. In keeping with the Origin Hotel vision to remain closely connected with the local community, Famille sources a great many of its ingredients through local farms and vendors, ensuring that everything that is placed on a diner’s table is absolutely fresh. Signature dishes include such deeply satisfying fare as flat-iron steak frites, grilled bison filet mignon, lavender-apricot duck, and green chili braised lamb shank. Make sure to leave room as well for classic French desserts like peach clafoutis, mille feuille, and petit fours. 5280 Magazine named Famille to its list of “Best New Restaurants of 2021,” calling themselves “big fans” of this eatery. Hope to see you there!
