Mistral gives the ultimate private dining experience with Chef Jamie Mammano's award-winning French Mediterranean cuisine and outstanding, professional service. Our approach to private events is one that emphasizes ease of organizing while maintaining a high level of elegance and detail. We will assist you in every part of your event to provide a stress-free, unforgettable experience, whether it is a high-profile corporate dinner, a special family celebration, or a wedding reception. Mistral offers a diverse menu, vast wine lists, and the ability to tailor your event to your specific needs. We recommend contacting Le Salon du Mistral early to secure availability for lunch and supper events, as well as Sunday brunch. Chef Jamie Mammano's most ambitious culinary venture, Mistral, was destined to become a Boston dining legend from the moment it opened its doors in 1997. Jamie earned a reputation as one of the country's most highly regarded chefs during stints at The Jockey Club and Le Pavillion Restaurant in Washington DC, as the chef for the United States Ambassador to Spain, and ten years spent in the kitchens of the Four Seasons Hotel Company in Washington DC, Seattle, Chicago, and Boston. Jamie single-handedly drove the Four Seasons Hotel Boston's dining room, Aujourd'hui, to the top of the Zagat Survey of Boston Restaurants in 1995 while acting as Executive Chef. Soon after, Boston Magazine readers voted Aujourd'hui as Boston's best restaurant, while Condé Nast Traveler named it the country's best restaurant.

    *Notice - Are you concerned that your wedding location may not be able to accommodate your guests in 2021? We are now accepting wedding reservations in accordance with the new MA Covid requirements, which includes open-air dining! With open tented sides and large open air flow for events, our main ballroom has been renovated to create an elegant ambiance while still preserving an open airy sense. We will return to our regular room as soon as there are no problems with Covid! Because we are located a little further out in the country from Worcester, Boston, and Springfield, we are often classified as being in the low-covid zone classification system. While learning social distancing, your guests can enjoy our many outside spaces, which include exploring, playing yard games, and relaxing in our gardens. In addition, our dance floor and landscaping work provide enough of space for people to dance without isolating themselves! Check out the photographs on this page! * This beautiful neo-classical three-story palace, which was completed in 1926, is the product of years of meticulous work. The steel-beam construction mansion, designed by Boston architects Blackhall, Clapp, and Whittemore, was built for Harding Allen, the proprietor of the Chas. G. Allen Co., a drilling and tapping machine firm and iron foundry. The company was established during the American Civil War to manufacture Yankee hay rakes. Approximately 742 individuals were employed by the company at its height of operations. The company has shrunk in size over the years, but it is still in operation. When Harding's wife, Carrie C. Allen, passed away in 1946, the estate was auctioned off, and Dr. and Mrs. Richard Fowler purchased a piece of the land, which included the mansion, for a sum of $1.25 million. Until it was repurchased by Steve Goldsmith, the great-nephew of Harding Allen, in 1972, the property remained in the possession of the Fowler family. After he and his wife Ina died in February 1995, the property was purchased by Alain Beret and James Fairbanks who lived there until the present day. Carmine and Grace Gugliotti, the current owners, purchased the property in February 2004 from the previous owners. The mansion is highlighted by its imposing two-story portico as well as exquisite balustraded porches on three sides. The beautiful internal plaster molding, carved millwork, and marble detail, all executed by professional Italian craftsmen, has been preserved in its entirety on the interior walls. The use of original lighting fixtures is prevalent throughout the space.

We continue to comply to state laws and mandates, but we have successfully hosted events of all sizes in recent months, and we want to continue to do so throughout the rest of the year. Please contact Ashley Piazza, our Director of Events, if you have any questions or would like more information! Smolak Farms Information Smolak Farms has a long and illustrious history. Michael Smolak, the farm's owner, was present during his Aunt Willie's wedding on the farm when he was two years old. He had no idea at the time, back in 1954, that his wedding would mark the beginning of a long and lovely history of couples choosing Smolak Farms as their wedding location of choice. The farm has roots that date back as far as 4500 years, to the time when Native Americans originally settled on the property. The lovely rolling hills of orchards and farmland that cover 125 acres serve as the perfect setting for this extremely important bonding experience between two individuals. Being linked to nature and all of the beauty it has to offer is a great way to begin a union that brings together not only two people, but two families and two lives as a whole. The pine forest was a favorite picnic spot for Farmer Smolak and his family when they were children, and it has since become a destination for friends and relatives from all over the world. What stories those 100-year-old pines could tell about the many families who have enjoyed their shade and the countless couples who have exchanged holy vows beneath their canopy, if only they could communicate. Their sheer size and presence causes one to take a moment to reflect.

    In addition to being a National Historic Landmark, the Lyman Estate, also known as "the Vale," is considered to be one of the finest examples of a country estate built in the style of eighteenth-century English naturalistic design in the United States. For his family's residence in 1793, shipping merchant Theodore Lyman commissioned renowned architect Samuel McIntire to design and construct a Federal-style residence. The house was first expanded in the Victorian style in 1882, and then remodeled in the Colonial Revival style in 1917, under the direction of the family. The thirty-seven-acre property includes gardens that have been meticulously preserved as well as historic greenhouses. During a tour of the mansion, which is now a wedding and corporate event venue, you can learn about the history of the Lyman family. One of the building's architectural features is a graceful oval parlor and an elegant ballroom, both of which can be seen in the upcoming film adaptation of Little Women. Pay a visit to the Lyman Estate Greenhouses for stunning plants and knowledgeable advice. Historic New England is adhering to all applicable state, local, and CDC safety regulations for the Waltham location. All employees and visitors are required to wear protective masks.
