Reviews of Syzygy Restaurant OVERALL RATINGS
Add Your Review March 5, 2010 Overall Rating: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Syzygy has recently opened in it's new location down the stairs tucked between Elevation and Ute City restaurants on Hopkins Ave. The interior is a suave design from the red glow of crystal wine racks to the textured walls of tile and velvet creating both a calming and intriguing atmosphere. We sat at the bar and started in on a Grey Goose on the rocks. Knowing a friend in the back of the house, we let the kitchen call the shots from there on. What a way to go. We were completely knocked out by the food. The entirety of which consisted of an amuse bouche of cauliflower foam w/ chives, nicoise olive & red pepper arancini w/ basil arugula pesto, chive crusted gnocchi alla romana with vadovvan spiced cauliflower and golden raisin gastrique, a minimalist sculptured salad of roasted vegetable salad, cheese spatzele, mushroom Ravioli w/ roasted onion tortellini al fricasie of baby vegetable. Finished off with a hot brownie with vanilla ice cream and caramel and a beautiful port wine. The service was great and the food was outstanding. Our experience at the new Syzygy was top notch.
January 20, 2010 Overall Rating: ![]() ![]() ![]() Syzygy used to be our favorite restaurant in Aspen. In their new location they have fallen flat. On our first visit this year we found the tables so close together and the room so noisy that we had to ask to be moved to a quieter location. The food preparation and the service were not up to the quality that we had come to expect at the old location. The menu, although pricey, was not as elegant as last year. There are good restaurants in Aspen and we feel that Syzygy in its new location has some catching up to do.
February 18, 2009 Overall Rating: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Of all restaurants visted in Aspen, Syzygy would be my first recommendation. Syzygy is not an inexpensive place to eat (this is Aspen, after all), but well worth the extra dollar. To begin with, the service is friendly - formal, but friendly and competent. The wine list is quite spectacular, offering a wide array of domestic as well as international goodies. Dishes seem prepared with choice ingredients, fresh, complex, creative. The creamy Wild Mushroom Soup was a winner, so were the Elk Tenderloins prepared to order. The chef takes his time, you should reserve plenty yourself to indulge. The atmosphere in the restaurant is enhanced by nightly live jazz performances, try to reserve a table in the extra room near the stage if you enjoy such entertainment. Overall an upscale place to dine well, enjoy a drink or two, and great live music. Highly recommended.
