"The crown was a much older crowd. It would have been better if had had more of a mix! It's called "Boys" night out. it was more like "Old" boys night out... I'm 56 and was porbably the youngest in there..."

"Lovely evening. Good dinner and music. 2 for 1 dinner was a great deal. We had Prime rib and Eggplant Parmigian. The Prime Rib was very good. The eggplant very average. We would go back and both have Prime Rib next time. We ordered a bottle of wine because it was priced fairly."

"We have been dining in Michele's Restaurant since it opened and each time we go alone or with our friends we are very pleased with the experience. The food is awesome, the servers are wonderful, and we love the entertainment. Mickey is there usually singing and playimg the piano in the lounge area and we love it!
Great Everything!!!

"Dined at the restaurant on a Saturday night at 8Pm, restaurant was virtually empty and while there was music playing. It definitely did not have the ambiance of a lounge or a club restaurant. It was kind of depressing. The food was tasty though, however, that night we were looking for more which is why we chose Michele's. Service was slow and unattentive given the amount of people dinning at the restaurant. Bottom line, the restaurant lacked energy."

"We had a wonderful evening in the bar and then in the dining room. We were a party of Seven. Everyone flipped over the pianist/singer first and foremost. He had an unbelievable Variety of song and exceptional delivery. What a find he is. 5 out of 7 of us loved their dinner. High marks for prime rib, pasta dishes and chicken offerings. The remaining 2 folks got salmon And had to return it to kitchen. It was very mushy like it had been frozen and thawed several Times. It was unfortunate but our server was very understanding and Accommodating. We enjoyed dancing at the end of the evening. Our favorite staff Members were Donna, Sack, Jeff and Ramon. Also our bartendar Audra was Especially sweet and super efficient. Th"

"Living nearby, I frequent Michele's fairly regularly. Previous visits have always been enjoyable in regards to both the food and service. However, this last visit was quite different. The food was its usual outstanding quality, but our server, John, was apparently new and not properly trained. The initial greeting was fine, but when it came time to order, I inquired if there were any specials (since he had not mentioned any). There were, of course, so he informed us of them. But when is the last time you had to ASK if there were specials? The round table where we were seated was a bit large, and our bottle of water was placed out of reach. Not an issue so long as the server refills your glass, but during the (out of space - nuts!)"

"This was one of the best nights out we have had in a while. Our favorite restuarant closed a couple of years ago and we have been unable to find a replacement until now. We will be regulars. Everything from the decor, the ambiance, the staff, the live music and most of all the food was exceptional! Not to mention all this at half the price we expected.... I look forward to going back on our next "date night"!"

"I never write reviews but wanted to for this one. Michele's was the perfect find. We were a party of 5 and we all raved about our food. Service was great. Their meatballs rival ANYONE'S and their cannolis were to die for. Great menu/ fish dishes were also outstanding Can't wait to go back!!!"

"Very quiet night. Loved the appetizers. The rime rib was just ok and not hot enough. This is a lovely restaurant and romantic with great service. Next time I will order the Italian dishes. I do believe this is the chef specialty."

"My husband I decided to check out Sunday dining at Michele's with their new offering of "Sunday Sauce/gravy". It was fantastic, better than Mama used to make (sorry Mom)! The meatballs, sausage and short ribs were succulent and spectacular. The rigatoni was perfect, the best sauce I can recall. Hard to believe this authentic Italian dish did not come out of a trattoria in Italy! I think they have a new chef, he or she is a real find! We've always enjoyed Michele's, but if you haven't been lately - time to try it again. They certainly have kicked it up a notch. As always, the ambiance is beautiful with great live music. The service attentive with great hands on management. Reminds me of a 1930's supper club. Lovely!"

"Waited nearly an hour for appetizers to table on a Saturday night. Restaurant was full but not a lot of turnover. Then waited for main course. Had to call manager over twice. Get the impression it is trying to be a cool place but not succeeding Both the manager and owner stood there pretending to look over the place.While the ood was good I definitely would not recommend it with all the other choices nearby."

"We had a wonderful time , well greeted at the door, and offered a complementary glass of pink champagne, very lovely. Our waiter althought attentive forgot to mention the specials ,we overheard one of the other waiters, but nonetheless we had a delightful evening. Also the manager asked us if we would be longer than two hours?? I did not care for that.Since we were only the two of us I hardly think we needed a time limit. Most of all we have enjoyed our evening as we have on every occasion we have dine with you. Thank you , Michele"

"I am SO glad an upscale restaurant with a wonderful lounge atmosphere has opened in Coral Ridge. Michele's has spent time and money to make sure their opening was flawless, and the restaurant shows it. From the moment we entered the front door, we felt welcomed...literally from the piano player who said hello while he was playing..how cool is that! The menu was inviting and interesting with a nice selction of entrees and starters. We had a great time. Say hi to the manager, John. He is very approachable, and it is obvious that customer are his number one priority."

"Michele's is one of those rare places in Florida where you can dine in a small intimate neighborhood restaurant and feel like an adult. The bar scene is busy, but nicely separated from the sophisticated main dining room which while you can hear the bar's music, is still comfortably quiet enough to hear your dinner companions.
The food is excellent,tending to Italian, although we've also had Thanksgiving here--and the food was outstanding then too. We dined on a Friday night at 7:30 and sadly, the dining room was still quite empty while the bar was packed. I hope that a restaurant with such a lovely dining room and such high-quality food typically has more dining customers. They deserve them"

"WE like Michelle's. My hisband loves it. The food is good. The service is NOT good. On the evening of the 5th my last visit there with a friend had service issues. The service coming from the kitchen was SLOW. Our waiter was not present except to take our order and deliver it from the kithchen. WE HAD TO FLAG DOWN ANOTHER SERVER TO GET OUR WATER REFILLED AND REUQEST ANOTHER COCKTAIL. The consistancey of the service takes away fron the atmosphere.
The food is good and the value is there. The entertainment on Tuesday night was excellent, a piano player by the name of Mickey. We will return to hear him and try again for the Tuesday night "two for Tuesday" and see if the service is better. We will request another server and see what happens."

"Very nice menu offerings. Very good food and impeccable, attentive service. Depending on where you sit, could be noisy, but our table was wonderfully quiet and we could converse in normal volume. We will definitely come back."

"Food cooked to perfection- great flavor! A bit of an older crowd, so sit back, listen to live music in bar area or relax with that special companion in the dining room. NY decor. A nice change to the typical Florida dining experience."

"We love Michele's. The food and service is outstanding. The ambiance is perfect -- somewhat formal, great live music , festive but quiet enough for conversation. It has all the features to make it a memorable evening whether for a special occasion or light eating in the bar. It is a restaurant atmosphere we don't experience enough in today's world of loud, hustle, fast moving, dinning venues. A hidden gem we discovered last year."

"It had been over a year since my friends and I had visited Michele's. We didn't know if we would receive the same quality food, service and drinks we were used to. We were pleasantly surprised. Our favorite waiter, Justin, was still there and some of the menu items we liked were still being offered. The addition of a truly talented pianist added to the evening. We were impressed and very satisfied."
