   My fiancé and I have wanted to go to this spot for years now and we finally made time on a chill Thursday after work and it was an incredible experience. There was plenty of open seating even near the window doors and the staff and ambiance made the welcoming for our reservation wonderful. The food options are nicely varied and the dishes we tried were great! I'd recommend the ratatouille, the hanger steak and risotto, and the beef bourguignon. The portions were decent for a light dinner and the food not overly heavy. The wine selection is extensive enough and affordable by the glass for a chill dining experience. We'd definitely go back again and again!

   Every dish is wonderful, the service is excellent, and the restaurant is pretty. We sat outside on the side street, so the noise wasn't bad. Indoors they have lovely live music on Saturday nights.

   Wonderful time, we feel like family every time with dine. There were some new items on the menu we got to try tonight that we loved (like the bouillabaisse and beef bourguignon) and the creme brûlée is always the perfect way to end the meal.

   We made reservations for the Valentines Day experience at Brasserie Le Mistral this year and were unfortunately disappointed with our experience. For $160pp before drinks, you would expect a romantic ambiance, but the back room that they showed us to was not what we expected. Service was good and I have nothing bad to say about our server, but for that kind of money, I would have expected something more professional. The food was good, we had the duck and the steak for our mains. The live music was great also, but I really think that Mistral was looking to squeeze as much money as they could from the night as we were all packed like sardines into the back room. We split a bottle of wine and our server was great in that respect. What really got me was the sticker shock of the $470 bill before tip, it just really didn't feel like that level of experience for that price. For $500 we really expected something more. Mistral would be great for a lunch or a casual dinner, but I wouldn't trust them with a romantic occasion next time around!

   CLASSIC brasserie. If you like the timely dishes of steak au poivre, mussels, duck, etc. this is the THE place in the neighborhood. The ambience was perfect and the service was great. Saw lots of regulars come in and the staff knew everyone by name. Highly recommend.

   Love that the tables are nicely spaced out and I’m not sharing my meal and conversation with strangers seated 4” away at the next table. Food was delicious and service friendly and efficient. Corner location with great light.

    Brasserie Le Mistral A delightful Sunday brunch awaits at Brasserie Le Mistral. Upon entering, you're greeted by a warm, ambient atmosphere, complemented by a charming trio singing softly in the background. The friendly service enhances the dining experience, making you feel right at home. The escargot is a standout—excellently prepared and full of flavor. The perfectly cooked salmon, with a crispy exterior and tender inside, is another highlight. Whether you're a local or a visitor, this French bistro is a must-visit for a relaxing and memorable brunch. Highly recommended! Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
