   Excellent experience. The service was first class (Nick). I had the branzino…outstanding. My wife loved her scallops/scrimp with gnocchi.entire. Highly recommend Michael’s if you want an exceptional restaurant.

   Michael's is always the best. We requested seating on the terrace upper level which is always quieter than in side. Our server, Kelly, was terrific. The food, as usual, was excellent.

   Good food, good service, nice evening We had an early dinner Saturday and had not been to Michael's for awhile. We had a nice table in the corner away from the bar, which we liked very much. Katee our server was great and Sea Bass and Veal Chop quite tasty. Portions were more than ample. Highly recommend for a special ocassion.

   We had heard about Michael's and decided to celebrate my wife's birthday there on a Saturday night. The outside seating in the atrium is quiet and the space is elegant. Our waiter was friendly and the food was inventive and very good. However, after receiving both bread and water we had to wait way too long to order cocktails which then took a quite a while to arrive. We ordered appetizers but they arrived without our waiter. We were half way through the apps before we could request the wine menu which, once again, took way too long to arrive. Lastly, I was disappointed when the desert we ordered arrived without a candle, especially after noticing it at 2 other tables. Overall, while the food was great it was not a special experience. Might bo back but I doubt it.

   Greetings Mark, First of all I would like to wish your wife a very happy birthday! I'm pleased to hear that you both enjoyed the beautiful atrium as well as our delicious dishes. The gaps in service and the mistiming of drinks/appetizers does not bring me pleasure to hear about however. Freddy, your server, expressed his frustration at this very scenario; he was unable to get the cocktails from the bar before the appetizers came out, which was through no fault of his own. Not to make an excuse, but just to clear the air as Freddy is one of our best servers. The lag on the wine menu delivery as well as no candle on your dessert however is inexcusable and I do apologize for that. I greatly appreciate your feedback and I know we can do better. I will be reaching out to you privately!

   It had been several years since we had been to Michael’s, but it won’t be that long until we go back. One attraction for us is their solid wine list - much better than most in the area from a variety and price perspective. But the food was very solid as well. Not Michelin star quality or particularly innovative, but very good and well worth a visit, particularly for nicer occasions. For us it’s a good option for our monthly “very nice” dining, i.e., three course dinner for two for $250-$300, including a nice bottle of wine. But you can spend half or twice as much if that is your preference on a particular evening. This visit we had the angel-hair onion rings, two salads, sea bass and bow tie pasta entrees, and a shared desert, with a bottle of white wine. Everything was excellent, including the cheerful service by Freddie.

   The steaks (filet and ribeye) were really good! The Mac n cheese was the best we’ve ever had. They made our anniversary dinner special with a nice dessert that was delicious but we were too full to finish. Wonderful service from Derrick and Nick!

    I would certainly recommend Michaels. We really enjoyed every aspect of our experience. The cocktails were delicious, the appetizers and dinner were excellent. Freddy was our server and he was attentive, kind and polite. He had a smile the whole time we were there. We will be back and I do hope we have the same experience, as this was our first time attending.
