First, our server was very nice and explained the menu and answered our questions. She was very attentive all night. The bone in filet was awesome as was the creamed spinach side. Wine by the glass price and pour were good.

For the third year, we have come here for Thanksgiving dinner. It is a generous and delicious turkey dinner with stuffing, potatoes, green beans and gravy. For one price you get this turkey dinner with soup or salad and choice of dessert. The service was top notch. Our server was Seth who we have had serve us on many occasions. He goes above and beyond to make sure our meal is as perfect as possible. The GM Alex always warmly greets us and makes sure we are happy. The view of the bay today was spectacular with clear skies and calm waters. Always fun to watch the planes landing at San Francisco Airport and guessing what adventures folks are coming home from.

We had a pleasant evening at Mistral’s. It mostly seemed like a well oiled machine. The menu is creative with varied choices. We liked the onion soup and caesar salad. The crab cakes drew positive comments; less so the surf and turf which included a chewy sirloin turf. Service was friendly and attentive.
