    Delicious food! Great Service by Enzo! Nice ambiance! My first time at Michael's. A few friends recommended this place and I was not disappointed. My wife and I started off with Oysters and Bacon Scallops for the appetizers, which were both very fresh and tasty! We ordered MoB’s Rigatoni Vodka Baked N' Burnt (Spicy), which was excellent! The sauce is house made. We also ordered, the Veal Chop Parmigiana a.k.a "The Smash Job". The best Veal Chop we ever had...super tender with crispy breading on the outside. We also had the Roasted Chilean Sea Bass with Fennel, Cipollini, Cherry Tomato, and Rosemary! The Sea Bass was fresh, juicy and flavorful! Everything tasted amazing! Enzo, our waiter provided excellent service. The atmosphere and vibe was lively and energetic! They are always booked up, so be sure to make reservations in advance! I'll be recommending this place to friends and family and will definitely be back! Cheers!

    consistently excellent - food, service, wait staff, hosts. We had the lobster crepe special - and it was light, flavorful - just rich enough and the lobster was perfectly cooked. The Chicken Alla Michaels - delicious and the sauce - oh the sauce - made me finish the basket of bread. Love the traditional look of the wait staff - crisp and attentive.
