    My boyfriend and I had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Mistral! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The food was absolutely amazing — each dish was crafted to perfection, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. It was clear that a lot of care and passion went into the preparation. We left feeling truly satisfied and already looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a top-notch culinary experience!

    The outdoor (closed-in section) dining area is nice. However, the acoustics in the main dining area are not good, very loud. Would appreciate more vegetarian options.
