   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.

   Our server was very polite, attentive and upbeat. She could use a little more knowledge of the various wine options, but that will come with time. MOE is a Sarasota staple. Always solid. The space itself is extremely outdated with odd paintings on the walls and this probably works well with the 70 and above crowd. One thing that bugs a lot of male patrons is the lack of a privacy barrier between the two urinals which makes you feel like you are going to the bathroom in Fenway Park. Need that.

   Sat outdoors in the atrium area, wonderful ambiance. Perfect level of service, attentive but not annoying. Pompano Casbarian a must. Best Branzino ever, Greek style. Duck two ways was excellent. Hoisin Confit Duck & Veggie Spring rolls were an awesome start.

   I chose to have my birthday dinner at Michael's because of the great reviews. I absolutely loved the ambiance. The meal was hit and miss for the price. The waiter forgot to bring my drink with the meal. Even brought the wrong cake I ordered. My friend's lamb was bland but she chose to eat it. Definitely didn't leave a warm feeling around the service at the price. I probably won't return. The chef visited the table which was a nice touch.

We apologize for the oversight with your drink and the meal, this is certainly not up to our standards; we are disheartened to know we missed the mark by so much. We understand your concerns about the pricing and service and we hope you'll consider returning as we're always striving to improve. We greatly appreciate your feedback.

    Eddie recommended the pork chop, I was leaning towards the veal chop prior to arriving. I'm glad I went with the pork chop as it was the best cooked pork chop I've eaten. 2" thick chop , delicious. Would certainly return. I never leave reviews but felt I should as this was a very good dinner and Eddie was an excellent host / waiter. Thanks, Mark.
