    Elegant setting, attentive and knowledgeable servers, and delicious food--as always. However, food maybe not quite as good as in the past, and very much more expensive. It seemed like at least a 25% increase for individual items in their very stable menu since our meal there in 2024. The price jump exceeds general inflation. Will be a factor to watch, going forward.

    Honestly, we expected more. Mooo is outstanding in every way (same owners), and we have friends who like Mistral so we were excited to try it. My wife and I really felt like it was a 6/10 and we’re not overly impressed with any single part of the experience. Nothing bad at all, food was fine, but nothing blew us away. Lots of other options in Boston, so we are probably are unlikely to return only because there are better spots to spend time.

    We really enjoyed our time at Mistral. It is a little out of the way from the heart of Back Bay but it is well worth it! The cocktails were great and at the suggestion of our server Grey we enjoyed a lovely bottle of bubbling Rose, which we enjoyed throughout our dinner. I am not a big fan of flourless chocolate cake but their’s was divine. The appetizer and flatbread portions are generous and getting a variety of dishes was fun! Grey and the whole team at Mistral was great!

    Delicious as always. This restaurant is simply immaculate. Tuna tartare, tenderloin pizza, salmon, fillet mignon. All spectacular. 25 years strong and they don’t miss a beat. BOTH managers were very attentive and super polite - both Pouring water and folding napkins. Nice to see interactive management.
