Mistral
|
Mistral is the kind of restaurant where it doesn't even matter if the occasion is special—you feel special just being there. Which is why when dining with a group for an important client dinner, anniversary celebration, or just a Saturday night gathering of friends, Mistral is the place to go. The large main dining room, with its soaring ceilings and intimate tables, can easily accommodate large parties, while chef-owner Jamie Mammano's French-Mediterranean menu accommodates every diner's taste. There are crispy, thin-crusted grilled pizzas to share, an extensive menu of such tempting appetizers as seared foie gras with confit of duck in brioche, and entrées from crispy soft-shell crabs to roast rack of Colorado lamb. For the biggest groups, there's the stylish, candlelit Le Salon du Mistral, which can accommodate up to 60 for a lavish seated dinner and is perfect for the most traditional of group dinners: the wedding reception.
