Description

Le Mistral houses not only a restaurant but also a bright, beautiful building next door. There's a full-service bar, a charming patio and even a gourmet food store/boulangerie in case you didn't get your fill of Chef David Denis's food at Le Mistral. His brother, Sylvain, runs the front of the house, which is usually filled with diners as chic as the modern dining room and elegant food. No other French restaurant in town can touch Denis's terrine de foie gras or duck confit.

French for Beginners

By Robb Walsh | Thu, February 21, 2002

Our entrées are finished, and I still have a little wine left. We're drinking a bottle of Paul Jaboulet's Crozes Hermitage, a sturdy red wine from the Northern Rhône. It's one of the very few interesting choices on the short wine list at Le Mistra... More »
