It’s in the Intercontinental Hotel so the setting was beautiful & the ambience fairly classy. We expected more from the food. It was good but not great. I had the cherry glazed duck. The glaze was yummy but the duck was a bit chewy. Another person had the rib eye steak. He was unimpressed. He asked for med. rare & it was overcooked. The winner was the order of the halibut. That was excellent. They have a nice wine selection. We ate inside but There was outdoor seating with no heaters.
Service was fabulous. They bent over backwards to make sure we were happy. Since we were the only ones dining indoors, they had the time to do that.

This is a great setting with wonderful views. Sit outside if weather allows!

We made reservations for Mothers Day. We were able to sit outside which was fantastic. We had the raw bar for two which had lobster, shrimp and oysters. There was so much we had to share our entree!
The main meal was also great along with the desert. We will definitely come back.

Great service, good food. Quick service.
Kind of Pricey.

We enjoyed our Easter Brunch very much. Creative dishes like the ham and cheddar waffles were delicious. Nice selection of different types of mimosas. Lovely views and great service.

Great Valentine’s Day dinner

The Service was very good however, the food was extremely expensive for what you received and their on-line menu is all wrong! I booked through open table because of the menu I viewed as well as the restaurants menu I viewed on-line. As I stated it was not correct at all!
Very disappointing...!

Breakfast was completely over priced we got 2 breakfasts for take out to bring to our room and it was $80+ for two breakfasts ! Dinner was ok we ate their New Year’s Eve menu was ok dinner was ok nothing special

I dined at Miel on Christmas Day evening. We first sat at Rumbar for a drink and appetizer. The rum drinks were well poured and balanced, however pricey at $15 each, but it's Boston, right? The humus appetizer was excellent, but I wish they had more pita triangles or even included veggies because there was lot of humus left over which we would have eaten if we had something to dip. The 2 drinks and hummus appetizer was $50, not including tip. Walked over to Miel for our dinner and ordered 2 glasses of wine. Breadsticks w/ oil were served and they were no joking hard as a rock. The menu was set for the holiday and there were 2 choices for the app, cream of mushroom or a beet salad. We both went for the beet salad, but my salad had no beets in it at all. Both salads were extremely light on the dressing. I enjoy a light dressing but this was like eating salad with no dressing at all. However, all the vegetables and greens were very fresh and good. For the main meal he ordered the filet mignon which he said was average. My main meal I chose the halibut. The only other option is the duck and I only eat fish. The halibut was very fishy and the odor awful, however the veggies included were excellent, spinach/ parsnips. Either all halibut is like this or I just don't care for this type of fish. Was given a free glass of wine for this issue which was nice. Desserts were either butternut tart w/ gingerbread ice cream or eggnog bread pudding with peppermint ice cream. Bread pudding and peppermint was very good, but the butternut tart was just plain weird for a dessert. Gingerbread ice cream was very good. All in all, we tried a restaurant we've never been before which was exciting, but unfortunately it feel flat for us and we are out $250 for a very undesirable meal. Would suggest a chocolate option for dessert and for the main fish entree, something more mainstream like salmon. Fresh bread pls, more dressing and don't forget the beets. Won't be back

Another fabulous dining experience! I look forward to my next visit.

very extensive drink list, limited food options, but everything we tried was great!

Drinks were great. We ordered fries and they came out cold.

Loved the food, the view, and the service! We sat on their quiet terrace.

Beautiful ambience, great food (especially the lychee martinis and scallop tostada appetizer), server was lovely..will definitely be back again!

Given the covid situation, I understand the number of workers may be limited to cut costs and keeping business afloat. However, if its Dine-out Boston week, you would think maybe they can squeeze a few more people to serve/cook.

The gentleman was clearly overwhelmed. We had a few rounds of drinks before the appetizers came out. It took close to an hour and a half! Additionally, the entree came out dry and bland.

I had a really horrible experience with them. They had only one bartender that was also the server and the host was not anywhere to be found we sat there for 30 minutes nobody came up to us or help us or anything very horrible experience I recommend not to go there and they also racial profiled me.

Delicious food, well distanced on the patio, good service!

Went there to enjoy some fresh seafood and dinner as offered on the online menu

The actual menu was more like a pub fare than any type of upscale dining, when we asked about the limited menu vs the online menu that we reviewed, the wait staff had limited knowledge and simply stated the online menu was wrong

Given the Civid climate, a limited menu is more than understandable, nonissue with that at all

The real issue was that they never shared that online or even in person until we were seated

We ended up having chips and guacamole as well as shrimp tacos, not really what we were expecting

Very limited menu, only one server around so things were slow, and one of our five dishes was forgotten. Unfortunately, not a great experience

We had an amazing diner outside and even if there was not a lot of staff ( the restaurant just reopen). Ian , the manager was really helpful and friendly being his mask. We got to meet the chef de cuisine, Didier and he shared some of his culinary adventures from past years. This is not our first time at Miel and it has always been consistent : food & service.
The view is beautiful and you don't have many places like that in Boston. We will go back in a heart beat.

My parents, one of their friends, and I had an excellent dinner here. Only 2 other parties were present at the time of our meal (10 people total) so do bear that in mind. I was disappointed to find out that I could not order an individual item from the prix-fixe winter menu. I instead ordered the Grilled Octopus appetizer (ready in around 10 minutes) and the Pan-Seared Scallops and Shrimp. My mother grew up eating Asian seafood and was wonderfully surprised by the Cioppino's Fisherman Stew (she typically dislikes Western-prepared seafood. She enjoyed the spice and even seasoning). My father ordered the Cumin Roasted Brick Chicken. He ended up eating it with his hands. It was slightly firm, moist, well seasoned, and the vegetables it came with were cooked just enough to preserve their original texture. Their sweetness complimented the savory chicken. The scallops had a clean taste, with a slight meatiness and chew to them. The shrimp didn't taste as good as the scallops, but they were quite large. The spaghetti squash added a subtle sweetness and richness when the three elements were combined, so that made up for the lack of flavor in the shrimp (I've never actually had a dish like this before, so I assume the taste was light as intended). For dessert, we had the gelato trio and crême brulée. The hazelnut gelato had intense nutty flavor, the mocha was rich and dark. The pistachio gelato failed to deliver, however. I couldn't tell that it was pistachio due to a weak flavor. The crême brulée paired well with the fruit, the topped macaron was airy but once crunched it had a luscious density to it. The citrus flavor was subtle (I didn't really get it most of the time) but it was spectacular overall. This was a great dinner and honestly worth the price (our check came to $170, the Wild Mushroom Tortellini was also ordered). Thank you to our server Michael!

Wonderful food and great service in a very nice place to dine. Highly recommend.

Another wonderful brunch at Miel Brasserie! Terrific meal and service.

Food was just okay. Steak came out room temperature with cold au-poivre sauce...
Restaurant was not busy - food should have been perfect.

I thoroughly enjoy the experience at Miel. The staff was excellent and the food delicious. I would definitely go back. A very intimate and great location as well!

If you're coming here, be sure to walk beyond the RumBa bar area to reach it.

Restaurant in the intercontinental, on the fancy side. Quiet, nice view. Food is sub-par. We were there for valentines day where we paid $90 per person for 3 courses , plus cocktails/a bottle of wine. You’d get better food elsewhere.

Nice setting, good service, quiet. Food was not that great. I was told there would be A la carte menu upon my confirmation for Valentines, Unfortunately this was not available when we started to order. The Valentines menu was very limited and unfriendly for folks looking for on dietary restrictions.

Dined at Miel on Valentine's Day. Wow! They had a set three-course menu with fabulous choices. Service was great AND they gave me a rose and bag of cherry chocolates. Can't wait to come back.

Mediocre food for the price.

I had two problems with this restaurant:

1) While it is advertised as French (and the name suggests it), there is very little actual French cuisine on the menu; and
2) I saw my waiter twice: once when I sat down and was not even ready to order a drink, and ten minutes later when he took my order. When the server brought my food, I had to ask her about my glass of wine. She looked for the waiter and then proceeded to bring my wine to me. Finally, I waited about ten minutes after I finished my meal, and still, saw no sign of my waiter, so I went to the desk and paid. Needless to say, I gave no tip.

Now, in case somebody thought it was busy, I was there when there were only four other tables occupied (there may have been a large group in the back area), so I don't think they can say they were extremely busy. It is possible that the waiter had to leave due to some emergency, but then the restaurant should have let me know.

I have to admit that I tried this place without doing research, but I expect a 4 star place on tripadvisor to be better than this.

I did have the ESCARGOT VOL AU VENT and Truffle Frites. The excargot was good, but the frites were cold. This place is definitely not worth a visit.

Service was extremely slow. The place was empty and the waitstaff acted like we weren't there (a party of 6).

Great coffee and nice waiter but the kitchen was way too slow. When the food arrived my eggs came out twice undercooked. The waiter ended up the third time cooking them himself to be sure they were done correctly. He was great.
My husbands was undercooked too.

We've been here multiple times during various times of the year. The food has been consistently very good. Unfortunately, the service is somewhat inconsistent. We used a travelzoon coupon this time. I suspect the waiter didn't think of us as valued customers because we had a coupon for our meal. Our service was lackluster.

Always good food and good service!

Wonderful meal and location on the harbor walk. Menu not strictly french. Great food and atmosphere, view of Fort Point Channel bridges and harbor walk. The restaurant has a tranquil atmosphere, nice place to have a conversation, bar seemed to be busy.

Great food and service! We used a Travel Zoo and had a great time!

My husband and I have been eating out on Christmas late for the past nine years. I would say by far this was the most pleasant experience! The service was fantastic the food was absolutely delicious and the ambience was nice.
My only complaint is that we were not informed Ahead of time that it would be a pri-fixed meal with a set price. I even called in the afternoon to confirm our res and the man I spoke with did not Inform me. Other than that issue, everything was amazing.
Thank you!

They had the three-course menu for Christmas eve. One of the main dishes, duck, was one of the best I have ever had. Unfortunately, it is not on their regular menu. I recommend it to be on!

We arrived at 5:00 PM to a nearly empty restaurant. We asked for a window table but were told that the tables were pre-assigned and then were seated at a table next to a large family (one of only 2 occupied tables in the entire restaurant). We were then surprised to discover that there was only a limited overpriced menu available which was not disclosed when we made our reservation.
The table service and meal were OK.....nothing special to warrant the inflated price.
When we left, the restaurant was still mostly empty including the window table we requested and were denied.
