Mistral - Milwaukee

Please try this beautifully designed place to taste fine Mediterranean food once you get a chance. Four of us decided to sit in the magnificent lunchtime with ambience to set the mood. We ordered the kauliflower and pita with dipping sauces, excellent. I could have eaten the cauliflower, it was so good. For Entrees we ordered two libut, tuna and steak. The halibut was absolutely divine, my favorite fish was perfectly prepared. The tuna dekadent. The steak was very good and delicate, served with fingerfries. We were very happy with our meal and the atmosphere. Heidi our server was great and got every detail right. The very personable and talented boss came out to ask how our dinner went, which was a beautiful gesture. I will make it absolutely a point to come back and try the rabbit.

We wanted to try this place for the last 6 month and what an amazing discovery! Perfectly executed inventive Mediterranean inspired food, full of taste. We ordered duck wings, octopus and turmeric cauliflowers for appetizers and loved all, especially the sauces. For the net rye crust Halibut was delicious with tasty rye berries which was a treat. Rabbit Cacciatore was perfect meat was moist and well balanced with tomato sauce and polnta. Mistral Trio of the Deserts was a perfect end for this wonderful dinner. Small but competent wine list, cocktails, half a dozen beers and half a dozen bottles make a pair of drinks of your choice. Sensitive and friendly service. Very recommended!!!

Fantastic restaurant and Mediterranean cuisine. Came in on Sunday night. The environment is great, had the octopus as an appetizer, venison burger was phenomenal and the flan for dessert, which was amazing and softened in this Valentine Karamell coffee syrup. Cocktails were also in place! Def would return. Our server was great too and very accommodating!

Can't say enough good things about this restaurant and his food. Every dish was amazing. It is hidden in the Avalon Theater on KK Ave in Bay View, and the occasional bass-choco sound from the cinema reminds you of it. But the ambience in the restaurant is intimate and quiet. The menu is varied and tasty (and I am not easy to please and have eaten everywhere). I've never tasted so delicious octopus. The price is low compared to the quality and quantity of food. It is a small place, but we have a simple reservation on a Saturday evening (this will change according to COVID and this review)! The wine pairings were generous and perfect with the food. Five stars on everything and we'll be back.

Fantastic food at great prices. Got the octopus appetizer with the rabbit main dish. All of the flavors were perfect. Did the wine pairing with the dinner and the choices really complimented the food. They know what they're doing here. Definitely worth checking out
