"A French restaurant that overlooks the Public Garden is about as classy as Boston gets. But Bistro Du Midi has two different dining rooms, each doing their own thing. So if you’re with someone who has a preferred pin stripe width, head upstairs to the dining room filled with candles and original artwork. If you want to keep things more casual, head to the bistro downstairs. Either way, you’ll get a very good French menu filled with seafood, terrines, and a good prime beef burger." - dan secatore
