Consistently Perfect

Time and time again Mistral impresses me with it's consistently delicious food. I've never had a bad meal there. It's well worth every penny. By far the best consistently great restaurant in Boston

The best of the best!

Went there last night for the first time in a while... Great drinks, interesting "euro crowd" atmosphere, and good conversations abound! Be sure to try the "fry bread pizza" - delicious, filling and not too...
