    Wonderful table service. Food was good, halibut and tenderloin overcooked and a bit dry. Not as intimate as I would have thought. Ambiance a bit confusing. There are better fine dining options, Menton and O ya.

    When we arrived for our reservation the hostess said "welcome home!" how sweet and perfect of a welcome. If the absolutely impeccable service was not enough to win you over, the food definitely will. Best Escargots, delicious white asparagus salad and outstanding pizza!

    Amazing experience for my graduation dinner. There were 6 of us, and everyone did a fantastic job, from the bussers to the server Rodrigo, everything was perfect. The food was delicious, everything came out hot and on time. I’d highly recommend going here if you’re looking for excellent service and amazing food.

    Wait staff was amazing!!! Everyone was smiling!!! (Something you don’t see in Boston too much.) We sat near the wait station which I was nervous about at first but it did not matter. I like the atmosphere, the wonderful booth that was requested on Open Table. I actually enjoyed the activity around me. Food is incredible!!!! We ate apps and sides. Very generous. We over ordered but it was great!!! Entrees looked huge that they were bringing out to others. I would split those if you are a light eater! A wonderful evening!!!!

    Every once in a while I go to Mistral for special occasions - the setting is great and the vibe is wonderful. It prices itself as a top end restaurant and the setting certainly supports that. Over the years, however, I have found the food to be variable, and sometimes does not meet the expectations set by the setting. Food was good, but not great. Appetizers - a foie gras and a soft-shell crab special did not need quite as much accompanying sauce and treatment. The roast duck was a bit too fatty (a risk with duck) with a sweet sauce and the accompanying truffle fries were damp/soggy. Strawberry rhubarb tart was spot one. We will return but with expectations of the food in check.

    Horrible experience. Service was awful, and the food wasn’t fresh. I had an allergic reaction to the tuna tartare and I’m not even allergic to tuna! That shows how unfresh their ingredients are. Will never return.

    Mistral is truly an exceptional dining experience. The atmosphere is sophisticated yet relaxed and comfortable. The staff is highly professional, well informed, and reserved without being haughty. Our server, Jim, was outstanding. Every aspect of our dinner was of the highest quality, imaginative, well-proportioned, and thoughtfully presented – most notably, the ingredients were extremely well balance and flavorsome - we could savor every subtlety in each dish. The Pappardelle with truffles was extraordinary and the Tuna Tartare delectable. The roasted Duck with wild mushroom risotto was cooked to perfection and the pan roasted Halibut with Pallela risotto was bursting with flavor. Crème Brulé, Profiteroles and espresso were the perfect finish.
