"fantastic view, but it stopped there. Food was actually bad, lobster bisque had too much cream for amount of lobster flavor, my husband's fish was way over cooked, we didn't complain because it was a special night for us. I will say, however, the view is amazing. Maybe the meat would have been better than fish?"

"From the moment that we sat down to walking out the door, and event that attracted most of the restaurant staff to say goodbye, we were extremely well attended to; the attention was accompanied by excellent meals, expansive wine list and an attendant who appeared magically when we needed him but not moreso. We vacation on Maui, but Michel's is a destination restaurant that propels us into the chaotic tangle of Honolulu. A place to quiet the pulse, satisfy the palate and savor the view. Wonderful!"

"This was an amazing dining experience. I made our reservation 2 months prior to us being there for 6:00 so we could enjoy the sunset and requested a special table with an awesome view for a special occasion. Our table request was granted, and the tables was ours for the entire evening. A special dessert was delivered for our friends 25th wedding anniversary, enough for us all to enjoy. Michael was our waiter and he was absolutely wonderful.. His knowledge of the food preparation, its delivery, servings etc. was excellent. His friendly and interactive personality made for an unforgettable evening."

"Delicious and delightful! Do NOT miss the lobster bisque soup! The view is sublime-- day or night. The food is divine from appetizers to every morsel of dessert! The service is thoughtful, friendly, but quietly supportive of our private dining experience.

Mahalo!"
