The entree plates are huge, being the duck my favourite. Foie gras and the crab ravioli are amazing as an appetizer !! Deffinitively from the best food in boston.

Justin Breton

Three must gets: dirty martini , beef tenderloin pizza with mashed potatoes and truffle oil and the tuna tartare . $$$$, but definitely worth it. Def. one of the best restaurants in Boston ! #bostoneats

Revere Hotel Boston Common

Fabulous food and gorgeous design coupled with vibrant energy and exceptional service make Mistral one of Boston’s most respected and celebrated dining experiences. Also, the Dover Sole is AMAZING!

Alicia Kosasih

Had a wonderful Dine Out Boston 2014 week here. Salad was refreshing, Game Hen was incredibly well-seasoned, and the Chocolate Profiteroles were a nice, decadent finish to the meal. Recommended!

Consistently among the best places to have brunch or dinner in Boston. If you go for brunch make sure you don’t skip the creme brûlée donuts .

Shirley

Great selection for restaurant week . Huge portion and quality food.

Absolutely get the profiteroles, they were amazing! The combination of the salty pistachio against the luxe chocolate was divine. The steak carpaccio is also a must try!

Diana Tran

The roasted duck with mushroom risotto was so delicious! The duck was perfectly cooked - the meat was so tender and the skin was really crispy .

Delicious duck entree -tender and on the bone instead of a fillet. Also enjoyed the profiteroles for dessert !

Chateau de Sancerre wine is phenomenal. The tuna tartare is a lovely appetizer and goes well with the Sancerre .

One of the best restaurants for restaurant week - the menu is diverse and the portions aren't skimped. The food is delicious and the service spot on. Well worth it.

Mashed potato , beef tenderloin & truffle oil pizza to die for! Order that, and a drink, and that's an affordable evening out at Mistral. :-)

Just ordered a scotch on the rocks? Good. It comes with my fav, a glacier size, rectangular, single serving ice cube.
