Service is great, they were not able to accommodate our reservation request and sit us behind the receptionist right in front of the main door, super cold because of the wind. Taste of food is not what we expected as Italian cuisine, and I love Italian cuisine so been to a lot of them (including fusion with other culture) service is great. Our server Sal is very friendly and charming but overall food is not. We are disappointed.

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.

Mistral comes through again for a large dinner party. All of the food was delicious, service was great, and our table next to the fire was appreciated. I will keep going back to Mistral for family events, they are good folks to deal with and quality of their food is consistent. Thank you to the staff and chef!

I HATE the restaurants in San Mateo that add a service charge for employee benefits they should pay. I'll never be back. 👎👎

Food was outstanding. Everyone loved it. The Fish was outstanding, Ravioli and Paella fresh and light, great steaks, Schnitzl not like in Austria but good taste, delicious desserts and cocktails… Great place to catch up with friends or for business dinner. Outside is on the noisier side but inside was perfect to communicate.

We enjoyed our appetizer platter of assorted Greek delicacies. The surf ‘n turf meat was delicious but the sauce was spicy, didn’t expect the sauce. The evening outside temperature was 70 degrees but inside where we were seated it was very cold. We didn’t stay for dessert because we were very cold. Our server adjusted the temperature and it was fine for a while, but later it was cold again.

The restaurant sits by the lake and has seating outdoors that you can watch the sunset while having dinner. The service and food was delicious! We started with the warm bread and watermelon margaritas! Fresh and light! We ordered the butternut squash ravioli that also came with fresh veggies like zucchini and pumpkin. The presentation of the scallops and risotto was beautiful. The variety of colors of cauliflower made the whole dish pop! The beef short rib dish was delicious and so filling. We did get dessert. The seasonal homemade pumpkin cheesecake and the monkey bread pudding. Don’t skip dessert!! Service was excellent and attentive. Definitely coming back!
