Bistro du Midi

It was restaurant week, and we expected a crowd, but The Virus cut off much of the usual crowd. Instead we had an attentive and pleasant Server. Our food was simply exemplary. The venison tartine was delicious, but the chicken was perfectly cooked and delightful—crunching fresh skin, and the meat was moist, tasty, and just what chicken should taste like. the panna cotta was just light, gently flavored, and the perfect ! to our dinner. Usually this restaurant is noisy and very crowded. This night there were about 6 people. nad it was a near perfect dinner.

Delicious food, beautiful views of the common, and a great deal for restaurant week. We had a great time.

The food was outstanding. The restaurant accommodated our request to be seated at a table instead of at the bar which is where my wife and I had chosen to sit when we made reservations. Service was excellent if a little overly enthusiastic at times. Bistro du Midi is not a restaurant for bargain hunters, but we were happy with the overall experience even after factoring in the cost.

Food was very good. Server did not understand my joke but it's ok, still great service!

The food was really great, especially for it being Dine Out Boston season. The location and ambiance was also very causally-fancy. Great for a girlfriend lunch date.

This is the third time we've been to Bistro du Midi in recent months. It has become one of our favorite restaurants. Everything about it is excellent, from the warm greeting at the door to the friendly and efficient service to the truly exceptional quality of the food. To top it off, our table by the window had a lovely view of the Public Garden. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

I went with a group of 6 for Dine-Out Boston. The food, service, and views were exceptional! Definitely recommend

A wonderful date night! The ambience of this warm, charming, and light- filled restaurant matchs the suberb food. The service was warm and attentive , but not overbearing. We sat upstairs, which may have the best view in the entire city, as it overlooks the Public Garden. The food is modern Provencal and quite delicious- chestnut gnocci, steak bavette.
We went there for Dine Out Boston and look forward to going back soon.

The food was delicious, our waiter was great, and the ambiance is so nice!!! Definitely worth the price 100%! Me and my boyfriend went for our fifth anniversary and it was perfect :)

We shared the foie gras terrine as an appetizer. It was absolutely delicious. The sea bass for dinner was moist and flavorful. Great place for date night or a special occasion.

Have been here quite a number of times and it never disappoints. Great brunch spot: excellent food. Great service and a wonderful place to relax. You never felt rushed. Cauliflower truffle soup was a knockout!

Fantastic food; dessert very good, but not as great as first courses and entree. A little pricy.

Good food, service OK, location spectacular view

Just totally lackluster for the price of what we paid.

Wonderful cuisine, great selection and great service

We loved every minute. Our waiter Znick could not have been better! The food, the view, the food...did I mention the food?

Great, attentive service. Food was fine: some very good, some okay. Good deal with the Dine Out Boston menu

Beautifully designed plates, awesome decor and great server!

Went during restaurant week and had a great lunch at a very reasonable price. The space is beautiful and service was great, albeit surprisingly slow for such an empty lunch time dining room. Both appetizer and mains were outstanding, but the real star of the show was our dessert. Would absolutely stop by again for that alone.

I had high expectations going in. Bistro du Midi exceeded my expectations in every way! Highly recommended!

Great service, good food and beautiful presentation.

A memorable special occasion meal. Highly recommend the seafood tower. Great service, wonderful food, great wine and cocktail list.

Fantastic — we will be back

This is an extremely nice restaurant overlooking the Public Garden. The food and service are impeccable. I had probably the best filet mignon of my life. My wife was raving about her salmon. The server was extremely attentive to all of our needs.

Highly recommended. But if you go, don't be like some of the patrons we saw who showed up at this first-class establishment wearing jeans and a t-shirt. Really people :-?

Great location for dinner before the theatre at nearby venues. Super efficient and friendly staff support a talented kitchen.

I love this place. The menu is creative, fresh, and beautifully presented. The staff is outstanding. They’ve been helpful with my dietary restrictions. Both upstairs and downstairs seating offer great views. I’m thrilled this is a short walk from where I live.

Excellent food and attentive service in an attractive dining room.

Wonderful wonderful
My friend with many allergies was accommodated beautifully
Waiter was awesome
Look forward to next visit

I was in town taking my son out for his birthday before a play at the Colonial theater. Perhaps my tepid response had to do with recently having an exquisite dinner at Le Cou Cou in NYC but I unfortunately felt Midi was nothing to write home about. The ambience was pleasant and the waiter meant well. My chestnut gnocchi were quite bland and starchy. My son and I shared the salmon and the short rib. Again, no interesting herbal tastes or surprises, it wasn't as tender as the salmon I cook. I found the short rib to be a bit chewy (inexcusable w a short rib) and although I love my vegetables al dente, it was an actual struggle to
cut the long strands of broccoli rabe (one of my favorite veggies). I'm all-out a dessert gal but unfortunately found the carrot cake to be on the dry side w a plain old cream cheese tasting icing.
I appreciated the bartender making a special craft cocktail for me using tequila rather than gin and it
was delicious. I wish I could recommend it more highly but I'd have to say it hovers on the high side of a C+

Looks a bit tired downstairs

Great food!

As a Boston Proper resident, I dine at the restaurant very often. Typically everyone is very kind however, our last visit, with a spend of $800 on a dinner celebration, the lack of appreciation was inappropriate. Regardless of the amount spent, you would think a manger would appreciate a party coming in on a Monday night, provide a celebratory dessert not when you're about to leave, and/or provide a comp some sort.

Perfect spot for a pre-theatre dinner. Great value with decent wine-by-the glass choices. Order the souffle dessert you will not be disappointed.

food was exquisite. we were wondering if there is a new chef
service was impecable as well

Perfect! And the BEST Burger!!
