Sat at bar. Lovely young man- Chris! Perfect! Place looks fab!
Perfect - I mean, perfect. The staff was wonderful and accommodating, and the food is delicious. The duck melts in your mouth! The atmosphere is romantic, and with the doors open on a warm spring evening, you feel transported.
Amazing restaurant with an incredible ambiance! Food, staff, and wine was exceptional and would 10/10 recommended for anyone looking to try new creative food.
Food was excellent.
The service was outstanding and the meals were incredibly delicious! We had the charcuterie board, duck and a chocolate soufflé. It was such a nice treat and we will definitely be back!
Our go to restaurant in Boston! Love it!
We had a fabulous time! Had dinner upstairs and then finished with a couple extra drinks at the bar on the first floor. Highly recommend. The food was unbelievable and the staff is wonderful!
Bistro du Midi is such a perfect place to dine for lunch or dinner! It is charming; excellent service and delicious food! Our waiter, Carlos was superb as were all of the servers who attended to us. Great location and also has a nice outside dining area looking across to the public garden.
Fabulous! Great meal and great service. The wine steward, Andrew, was excellent in his recommendation and service.
Fabulous Easter Brunch!! The food was terrific and the waitstaff was very attentive.
I found it to be a bit overpriced. The service was amazing.
Hi John, we're sorry to hear you found us overpriced but we are glad that your service was amazing, and we are thankful for your feedback!
Outstanding as usual. Our first trip in after covid. This place is a gem. Fine dining with inventive well done food. Always a treat. I am so glad they have survived.
Beautiful interior - really feels like a French bistro. We ate on first level and loved being able to look out the big windows onto the park. Service was attentive and polite and never rushed. Food presentation was thoughtful and each item we had was delicious. Can't wait to go back sometime soon.
Great food, comfy quiet ambiance.
Second visit for dinner, excellent waiter. Food excellent both visits!
Food was amazing as usually. We were just disappointed in the fact that the sides came in after the meal and the excuse was because they gave our side to a different table. That would not have been an issue but then the same thing happened with the desert it came in way after my husband finished his coffee and there was no one came to us to explain the mistakes . We will still go because over all the food is amazing.
Thank you for your feedback, and we are sorry that every step of your meal was not spectacular. We hope that you'll join us again soon - we'll be sure to provide you a perfectly timed experience!
Birthday lunch for my wife. Food was great, particularly the foie gras!
Absolutely perfect dinner upstairs at Bistro du Midi.
Sorely missed. Now back and better than ever! Always a great and enjoyable
experience, delicious food and a warm, friendly, accommodating staff to take care
of you. The Chef's Table is a particular treat...
Welcome back!
Food was awesome but service was slow at a slow day
Service was superb. All staff were kind, helpful and accommodating.
Great staff, wonderful food prepared with love.
Excellent food - service almost too attentive . . . disrupted conversation several times
The best - whether is a fancy dinner or a drink in the café downstairs
Nicely decorated bistro area overlooking Boston common. Food quality was good, but needed more flavor to make it pop. Octopus was cooked well, nice & tender. The tuna tartare was good quality, but the sauce lacked in flavor. The mussels w/fries was ok. The first 2 mussels I ate weren’t probably cleaned out, so I felt like I was chewing on rocks, the rest were fine. The sauce again needed to stand out with flavor.
The service was good, they checked on us a few times and were genuinely trying to do their best.
Would go back for dinner.
I always seat in the Bistro or the bar. I love the ambiance and quality of the food and all the staff are very friendly
As always, bistro du midi delivered as one of the best restaurants in the city. It’s everything you remember and more! If you’ve never been, it’s a must try location, and if you are a returning guest, you will be pleasantly surprised with the new layout
Very slow service, food was not as good as we remembered.
Hi Leah, we are so sorry to hear your experience was not as wonderful as you remembered. We hope you will give us another chance to dazzle you now that we are getting our footing again after being closed for a year. We know we can give you the experience you had hoped for.
We have been dining at Bistro for as long as they have operated; it is a classy place upstairs for dinners, and bright and charming downstairs for lunch. We have never been disappointed and so glad they are back after the corona shutdown.
Service was amazing, this was our first time here (ever) and we will definitely be back. The manager who brought us to our table, unfortunately I forgot her name, was amazing and very welcoming.
As in the past, well prepared and presented plates by friendly staff. Excellent selection of courses and wines. So very glad this restaurant is back!!
Great to see Bistro back. Same menu, good service and all new people.
Terrific and innovative crudo. The tagliatelle was good, but not outstanding. Service, all around, was excellent.
Great ambiance and food! Would definitely come back.
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.
Hello kaycibi and thank you very much for your nice five star review! I'm glad to read that you enjoyed service and every dish you choose and I'm looking forward to see you again as soon as we will all able to go out again. My best - Federico
Delicious food, beautiful views of the common, and a great deal for restaurant week. We had a great time.
Hello BonnieKDesign and thank you for your five star review! I'm glad to read that you had a great time and enjoyed your meal and I'm hoping to seeing you again soon. - Federico
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.
Hello dowtowner. Thank you for the nice review! I'm happy to hear that you and your wife enjoyed your visit and I'm looking forward to taking care of you again soon. My best - Federico
Food was very good. Server did not understand my joke but it's ok, still great service!
Hi SarahfromQuarryStreet and thank you for your review. Haha, I'm sorry if your server did not get your joke, but I'm glad that service was good. I hope to see you again soon. My best - Federico
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.
Hi MeganA and thank you for your review! We are looking to having you here again soon. My best - Federico
Love the food, service and ambiance!
