- TThapGreater Boston •7 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoBistro du Midi is a wonderfully intimate restaurant with phenomenal food, drinks, and staff. We arrived on time for our reservation and were notified they were running behind but that they would collect us if we sat at the bar. The bartender was kind and attentive and as time passed, we were gently invited back to be seated and allowed time to finish our drinks. We ordered the Valentine’s Day menu, a choice selection through 5 courses. All of the options were phenomenal, we started with a small soup (tea cup sized) which we had anticipated for a larger tasting menu, but by course 3 we were hitting the wall! Portions were outstanding just small enough to be able to finish the next dish but large enough to feel very full by the end! We also ordered the cocktails oui chef, a lemon flavored cocktail and (please forgive me I forgot the name) a smoky combination of mezcal and cognac. Both of which were outstanding! Overall, we felt very satisfied! Being a big event for us we felt that the splurge was worth it, however, candidly it was a *very* large splurge so be prepared!More infoBistro du MidiPrice: Expensive• French• Back Bay•4.6
- BBryanGreater Boston •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoI dont go to fancy restaurants as often as I should. It makes me nervous but it was for me and my wife’s Valentines dinner date I had planned a month in advance. We went there and everything was perfect. The servers were kind and helped us with what we needed. It was definitely a memory that will last a lifetime that I am thankful for. The food was all cooked perfectly and I couldnt find anything to complain about even if I tried.More infoMistral - BostonPrice: Moderate• French• Back Bay•4.8

They handed out fresh roses as we arrived and took Polaroid photos tableside to commemorate the day. The Valentines Menu was sublime only matched by the superb service.More infoLa VoilePrice: Expensive• French• Back Bay•4.8

- MMaureenVIPGreater Boston •26 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoFirst visit to Pammy's to celebrate a b-day. Service was wonderful, thoughtful tips, frequent check ins, great energy. There were a few menu items that we needed to clarify before ordering as we were unfamiliar with items...but all part of the fun. The food was outstanding, I tried the lobster with squid ink gnocchi ...exceptional! The restaurant is kind of cozy...small floor plan with a communal center table. It all works, but if you have a larger group..book ahead to get one of the separate side tables.More infoPammy'sPrice: Very Expensive• American• Cambridge•4.8
