Nothing but great things to say about Mistral every time we come here. Columbus Hospitality Group is by far the best hospitality group in all of Boston. We celebrated our engagement at Ostra, our wedding at Mooo, and our anniversaries and Valentines dinners at Mistral. Had a wonderful 2nd anniversary date night with our wonderful waiter Savad, who was extremely kind, caring, attentive, and honest with recommendations. 10/10 for service, food, and atmosphere! Special shoutout to Jose at the bar too whom welcomed us so warmly, many years ago now during our first visit to Mistral. The perfect date night spot. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Lovely ambience, yummy escargot. The portions are very generous. We ordered 2 apps and 2 entres, way too much for 2 people. The duck with the ossos bucco was very very heavy, let alone having finished foie gras as an app. The foie gras was also huge. Service was lovely. I celebrated my birthday there and got a candle on a ball pf ice cream, perfect, because I did NOT have space for dessert.

Good but not great. Service was fairly slow for Tuesday evening and not very attentive. I was actually quite surprised that they were out of many items on the menu, especially since it was earlier in the evening (tuna, tartare, and apparently sparkling water we’re not available). The branzino was ok but overly flavorful. Truffle fries were decent.

Came for my birthday dinner and had a great time! Kyle is the best server I’ve ever had! He truly cares for the guests and very observant of any small needs like beverages almost running out and making sure everyone is taken good care of. Will come back again

The food is delicious, the environment is fantastic, the best is the service, everyone is warm and nice, we came on Saturday night which was busy time, we waited for a while, the waitress politely apologized for many times. Our server is Diego who is a very nice young man, he is a polite, warm, nice guy, he made us laugh, and we spent a very happy night in mistral because of him! We definitely will come again

Mistral is unapologetically elegant—and it makes an impression the moment you walk in. Located near the Theater District, this is a high-end French restaurant that feels like an event in itself. Reservations are required and only open within a 30-day window, which adds to the sense that this is a place people plan for.

The space is stunning. Soaring ceilings, dramatic scale, and gorgeous chandeliers create a sense of grandeur that immediately elevates the evening. It’s the kind of room where people dress up—perfect for special occasions, group celebrations, or intimate romantic dinners where atmosphere matters as much as the food.

The menu is firmly rooted in classic, mainstream French cuisine. There are many options to choose from, along with an extensive and impressive wine list that clearly caters to both enthusiasts and collectors. While the food didn’t push boundaries or feel experimental, it stayed solidly in its lane—well-executed, familiar, and dependable.

Mistral shines most in its experience: the setting, the energy, the polish. It’s a restaurant that knows exactly what it is and delivers consistency, elegance, and a refined night out. If you’re looking for a beautiful room, a celebratory vibe, and classic French fare done competently, Mistral fits the bill perfectly. ✨

A wonderful place for a gathering, with a warm atmosphere and a light, pleasant aroma in the air. The restaurant offers a well-balanced take on French cuisine: the duck is beautifully done, tuna tartare is amazing,the lamb rack is slightly too gamey, and the desserts could use a bit more flair. Still, it’s worth a try!

I dined here on Jan 26 at 7pm with my friend and her boyfriend–this was a dinner to celebrate my birthday.

And WOW what a beautiful place to celebrate. Warm, cozy, inviting atmosphere; superb service; beautiful and just delicious food.

I loved that my menu had a custom “Happy Birthday” printed across the top–nice touch from the staff.

Standouts from the night were the chickpea spread with the starter bread and the half “whole roasted” duck over a bed of exotic mushroom risotto with dried Cranberry gastrique to top. Quite the hearty meal.

To echo some other reviews–the portions are quite generous where a couple entrees definitely could be shared between two people, but all in all, just delicious.

I wanted to give a special shoutout to our server, Kyle, who was just so lovely and attentive during the entire dinner service–exuding nothing but patience and absolute professionalism as well. Thank you so much Kyle for making the dinner feel so special for my birthday!

Had a wonderful night and would love to give credits to Sabad N, who was very attentive! My fiancée and myself enjoyed his service.

The half roasted duck with risotto was impressive and is a must try for our next visit. We also received a wonderful surprise dessert to celebrate our anniversary, which was also a friendly gesture! Will be visiting again in our next trip to Boston:)

We had a wonderful dinner at Mistral in Boston’s South End while I was treating my daughter and two of her fellow Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) students to a special night out. From the moment we walked in, the space impressed us — fabulous high ceilings, soft lighting, and an atmosphere that feels both elegant and welcoming.

The food was truly outstanding. Every dish was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. You can tell the kitchen takes great pride in every plate that leaves it.

What made the evening even more memorable was the attentive, professional staff. Service was seamless without ever feeling rushed, and we felt genuinely well cared for throughout the night.

Mistral delivers on every level — exceptional food, a beautiful setting, and impeccable service. We’ll absolutely be back.
