   A perfect venue for celebrating a perfect event. Soft room lighting at just the right level and table lights lend to a memorable dinner. Add in the live soft piano music coming from the bar area and perfect attention from the wait staff adds up to a dinner that few area restaurants can offer. Couple the ambiance with a dinner menu that challenges the diner to try something different such as the octopus appetizer. Alas, this is not your go to venue for just any dinner out unless you can afford to do it. Looking forward to the next opportunity to celebrate a birthday or anniversary.

   Surprisingly noisy. Portion sizes are generous except for the desert which was small (Chocolate pudding with salted Carmel ice cream). Service was good. Sometimes a little slow. 3 of us enjoyed our dinners. My filet was ok but not as tender as I would expect from a high end restaurant, and the taste was bland. The total price was high. To be expected at a high end restaurant but the noise level; the food and the service were not quite at that level.

   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!
