BRAVO - WELL DONE! 5:00 on Saturday right after New Year. Almost full restaurant by 6pm. Our waiter was timely, attentive but not intrusive. Spicy shrimp appetizer - high quality ingredients cooked to perfection with toast baguette slices for dipping in addictive sauce. Not spicy so that is misleading. Grilled Octopus appetizer - perfect execution and taste. Cassoulet - a myriad of flavors - enjoyed everyone. A lot of beans. Flounder - Easy to mess up by overcooking but it was cooked perfectly along with green beans and light pasta accompaniment.

Our meal was outstanding, as always. At Mistral, my husband and I always share what we order. Today, we especially enjoyed the Crispy Salmon Bites and the Grilled Radicchio Salad. Everything was delicious including my cocktail, the “Louisiana Purchase.” Yum!
