    The only thing I didn't like was how loud the ambient music was in the dining room, it was hard to have a conversation. Otherwise everything was incredible!
    Michael's CafeResponded today
    Thank you for leaving us a great review despite the problem with the music. We have been trying to get this under control.

    We had an amazing dinner tonight at Michael’s. The food was amazing and the service quite perfect. We enjoyed GF options and the ambiance was perfection.

    Ambiance can do a lot in making a good meal great. We are so glad you felt we have enough to offer to those who leave gluten out of their diets. We hope to serve you again sometime soon. Thank you!

    Celebrated my friend’s birthday with our daughters and everything was excellent. Food was delicious, and everyone enjoyed their dinner. Service was wonderful and a shout out to Roy, our waiter. As always, I enjoy dining at Michael’s.

    We made a reservation for Sunday Brunch. Food was good and nicely presented. Our Server performed above and beyond for our party of three. We will definitely return in the future.
    Michael's CafeResponded 4 days ago
    We try to present the food in a way that does the flavor justice! We also aim to provide service that is as good as our food, and we are lucky to have the staff that can make that happen. We look forward to serving you again.
