Amazing tasting menu and attentive and friendly service Bread- 3/5 meh. Black Sea Bass Tartare 4/5 refreshing and tasty Butter Poached Lobster 5/5 perfectly cooked lobster. Very tasty sauce very tender asparagus Seared Foie Gras- 5/5 delicious. This was piled on top of some of the moist banana bread I've ever had. The flavor combo and textures were awesome! Australian Black Truffle Tagliatelle 5/5 very simple but delicious truffles and perfectly cooked pasta with Parm. Cant go wrong Westholme Wagyu Striploin- perfectly cooked. Very tasty 4.5/5 Peach 5/5- amazing finish! Peach shell when cracked open has a fruit mousse and granola in it Overall an amazing experience. Will come again

The filet mignon was excellent, but actually the cheaper hanger steak of the steak frites was the star of the show! The truffle fries and truffle mashed potatoes were excellent, along with the chocolate soufflé. Beautiful patio with gorgeous begonias. Our server, Juan, was very attentive. Highly recommend. Update- we loved it so much the first time that we came back. This time we both ordered the burger. It was fine. The fries weren't the same delicious truffle fries that came with the steak frites and our waiter hardly ever came around. After we finished and they cleared our plates it probably took him around twenty minutes to stop by again. He didn't even have a check with him. I guess it is hit and miss.

We've been here many times, often for special occasions, and always have a great experience. We sat outside for a birthday brunch this time- being outdoors definitely helped with the noise level as it can get quite loud inside the bistro when it's busy. The food is always reliably great. My personal favorite is the Moules Frites, but the other members in my party had a Croque Madame and Crepe Suzette, and they were both very happy with their entree. Two of us also shared the beet salad, and our server offered to bring out the salad split up into 2 portions, which was very nice. We will happily return here.

Finally got to dine out at Bistro du Midi, and was pleasantly surprised at how great their prix fixe menu was! I ordered the beef tartare, chicken with risotto, and banana hazelnut torte, and my partner ordered their french onion soup, steak frites, and creme brulee! Everything was quite impressive, and not too overly heavy considering it was a full course. Service was very timely and friendly, and ambience was good! A perfect spot for a date night or family dinner! I would definitely come back!

Super nice bistro with a great vibe and great service. Interesting, modern menu that is innovative but not over-the-top. I had the burger for my main course, as I can't pass up a gourmet burger. Solid choice of toppings, although I'd recommend a more conclusive combination of ingredients. The burger, which had foie gras butter, a prime short rib patty, and aged gruyere, stopped immediately at the gate with raw red onions, a piece of romaine, and a slice of tomato. Obvious improvements can be made. Overall, nothing stand-out. But this is a great spot with views of the park with reliable food and great service.

Bistro du Midi is an upscale French restaurant in the heart of Boston! The location being near the Boston Commons makes it a great spot for a date night or nice occasion. Food: We got a few dishes: duck breast, grilled octopus, foie gras with pumpkin bread, whipped mushroom pastry, salmon crudo, and poached pear creme brulee. The duck breast was juicy and soft and the skin had a nice sear to it. I liked the lentils on the bottom that gave a good variety in flavor. The grilled octopus was our favorite dish. It cut like butter and had a beautiful and elegant charred taste without tasting burnt at all! I don't love foie gras so I didn't like the actual dish but the pumpkin bread it came with was one of the best I've had! Also the presentation for this dish was stunning. The mushroom pastry was very unique and interesting. The mushrooms were cooked very well but don't know if the whipped egg did anything for the dish other than aesthetics. Salmon crudo was a little too buttery and fatty but the fresh green sauce definitely helped it seem cleaner. The creme brulee itself was amazing and perfect sweetness level but the pear was sort of just awkwardly sitting there. I wish it was sliced better so that it could incorporate into the dish better. Ambiance: A fancy spot for an occasion. The service was really great but was ruined because we sat next to a group of teenagers who would not stop babbling. Price: The prices weren't as high as I was expecting. It was a reasonable price for the quality and amount of food we received. Overall, would go again! They also have a tasting menu so might try that in the future!

This is a lovely restaurant across for the Boston Public gardens. We had reservations for Sunday brunch to celebrate my friend's birthday. We sat upstairs, which was a lovely room, busy but not too crowded, airy with a nice view. (downstairs was noisy and busy so glad we weren't placed there.) We sat at tables along the window which were a little close together. It made it easy for us to drool over the next table's order (and ask them what they had, which they cheerily answered). I'm not sure why we didn't hear every word they said, they were that close. The service was superb. Wait staff were available whenever we needed them to take our order, fill our water glasses or clear our plates. Every encounter ended with a "thank you" or "my pleasure." My only mild complaint was I asked for more maple syrup for my pancakes and by the time the waiter brought it around I'd eaten as much as I wanted so didn't need it. As for the food, it was delicious and beautifully plated. One of us had an egg white omelette which came with a lovely salad. Another had the salmon eggs benedict which she enjoyed; her only comment was that she ordered more hollandaise sauce and for some reason the extra order was salty, more so than what came with the original order. I had the ricotta pancakes topped with almonds and figs, hold the coconut. I found the pancakes to be a bit dense which may be normal for ricotta pancakes but I'm used to fluffy pancakes so maybe wasn't the right order for me. I ordered a side of pork sausage links which were the tastiest I can ever remember having at a restaurant. We ordered a creme brulee to share and it came beautifully plated, with a written birthday wish for my friend. Delicious too. This is a lovely, classy restaurant (but not stuffy), on the pricey side which one would expect given the location. I will definitely go back.

Besides the tuna tartare I liked everything else. Nice food, nice wine, good ambiance, and friendly service, it is a great spot for a romantic date. The only problem is, like a lot of Boston restaurants, they pack many tables in a small space. Our table was very close to the table next to us, about 4-5 inches distance, it was difficult not to hear the conversation next table. The stranger seated closer to me than my date across from our table. You can imagine how the conversation goes. But the food was good, and it was a lovely day, we had a whole bottle of wine, it was a good time.
