Personable owner Walt Harris succeeds at providing a harmony of expressive cuisine (the name refers to the alignment of heavenly bodies) thanks to a sterling, unusually helpful waitstaff and the assured, sublimely seasoned creations of chef Morton Oswald. The food is crisply flavored and sensuously textured, floating from French to Asian to Southwestern influences without skipping a beat. Standouts include the Szechuan tempura lobster with grilled pineapple and Asian-vegetable salad, and main courses such as elk tenderloin with sun-dried fig chutney and chile aioli. The patient and knowledgeable will find a few good buys on the extensive wine list; enjoy a glass while listening to Aspen's best live jazz. Reservations essential. AE, D, DC, MC, V. No lunch.
