"Our group was celebrating my daughter's 21st birthday. My husband and I have in the past worked in the area and has eaten at Michael's Cafe. We felt this would be a great location for us to take our daughter. Our food was great, waiter very attentive and we had a great time. I highly recommend Michael's Cafe for Lunch, Dinner or special occasion."

"I met a girlfriend here for lunch, it was a midway point for us to meet. I've never been here before. The place needs to be updated. It's very dark inside and has the smell of stale cigarettes from years ago when people smoked in restaurants. I'm sure it's stuck in the walls and floors still. Our salads were tasty and fresh. Our waitress was very sweet. But it's not a place that I would return to."

"Michael's is famous for their crab cakes and justifiably so. For years, I've used it as a convenient meeting place for friends and have never had a bad time. Our server, Nichole, was attentive and flexible. I had the fried green tomato stack with crab and beurre blanc---delicious. They have a busy bar, but the adjoined restaurant is generally quieter, except during construction."

"We always enjoy Michael's. It is great for a meal with family, friends or girls night out. We love to eat in the bar and watch a game on their many tv's. Some of the booths even have their own tv! I highly recommend the shrimp salad, crab soup, and crab cakes."

"I have been going to Michael's for years, however, Friday evening was a terrible showing on their part. I requested a booth or nice table in the restaurant. They did not take note of my request and we had to be seated in the bar. The band was so loud you could not hear yourself think. The food was excellent, as always, but the dining experience was a total disaster. A band of the type they had just ruined the entire evening."

As usual, the crabcakes are terrific. I send them to my elderly uncle in Upstate New York every Christmas. He looks forward to them every year.

"I've driven by Michael's Cafe about 100 times and I never realized it was a restaurant. My boyfriend took me there for my Birthday. The food was amazing! I will definitely go again. The server could have checked back at the table a little more frequently, but this will not keep me from returning again."

"Service as a little slow at he beginning and the server was not the friendliest at first. She did warm up later. My mother enjoyed her veal, but dad's chicken with crab meat on top was dry."

"Great entre's. I had the fish and crabmeat... absolutely awasome. My wife had the Stuffed Shrimp (with crab imperial). Just fantastic. We will be back.
They do need to improve their sides... cold broccolli and fries. The "wedge" salad was returned as one of them was the entire core of the lettuce head. How hard is this?
Overall, the entre was fantastic. Just need some help with the sides."

"Weekly date night every Thursday night for my wife and I. We use to be regulars of Patricks for over ten years, but their food quailty and management went way down hill. I love my steaks and prime rib. Patricks started selling horse meat. So after complaining for weeks I gave up.. Started coming here to Michaels and have loved every meal! Top notch service and top notch food. If you have the choice..request Alex as your server..she is the best ever! I am in customer service all day as a manager for a Cadillac service department and know the high demands of customers. This place delivers!! Doing a great job keeping their employees on their toes, all the way to the buss staff and support staff. Very pleasent and helpfull staff"

"My favorite place to go for Crabcakes. I don't eat them anywhere else. They are full of jumbo lump crab, broiled to perfection. The salad was fresh and nice size. The asparagus was thin and tender but grilled with way too much oil. My other side was a baked potato, nothing special. My daughter always enjoys their chicken noodle soup. She also had a turkey club sandwich with fries. The first order of fries were cold, the server quickly replaced with hot ones. I didn't care for the skinny fries myself. No room for dessert."

"Service was good and the food was equally good. I had the lobster crab cake with sweet potato fries. Wouldn't necessarily recommend the lobster crab cake if you are hungry - it was small on a large plate and really got lost on the plate. It was good, but not filling. My party & I both had the bread pudding and coffee for desert - Awesome!! Definitely will return and hope you will check it out some time."
