    Chris Michaels was a Great Restaurant. The Food was amazing. Porterhouse was cooked perfectly! The lobster Mac n Cheese was on point as well. The Nutella brownie was ok , it was dry but ice cream was good. Service was excellent. I would definitely return. Also after your dinner they have a really nice lounge that plays a great mix of different music.

    I didn’t want to embarrass my friends who were picking up dinner. This was a recommendation on my part to attend this restaurant but my steak could have been better the steak was cooked well not medium. What a shame because everyone had a good time.

    The food was great. The service was poor when we didn’t order alcohol and we skipped apps…. We waited over 30 min for the check/dessert menu and at that point I wanted to just leave. Also…. For being high class… the atmosphere was sub par. A place like char had way better ambience.

    We picked this place to have dinner for our 15th anniversary. First they don’t acknowledge if you’re celebrating a special occasion. There is still Covid. The tables were too close to the next table. The lobster bisque soup, I’ve had better and my meal was disappointing for this to be a steak house. I ordered a medium well steak and it came well done where it was black on some parts. The waitress never came over once it came out. We only seen her once she thought we wanted dessert. I told her it was not cooked correctly she didn’t care and asked if I wanted dessert and after I said no I have to now find another place to eat she just gave the check. We ended up at Applebees who provided better food and service. This was also a test run for me to see if I wanted to have my birthday party there but that’s not happening.

    Celebrating our 13th anniversary yesterday. The atmosphere was not what we expected for our first time. It was fast paced music playing and the noise level was high. I was expecting a quiet and relaxing dinner atmosphere for the prices. The food was ok not the best steak I’ve had and my husband’s steak was cooked at the wrong temperature. Never received bread for our soups. Asked for seltzer water and wasn’t told there were no free refills noticed on the bill. Never had to pay for water before smh. The manager came by other tables to check on how they were doing and walked by ours. This will be our first visit and our last. I’ll stick with Ruth’s Chris steak.

    Food was good. Atmosphere was not the prettiest. The main dining room had better decor but was crowed so we chose to sit in the lounge area.

    We were seated in the lounge area, where they have club music playing while you eat (we enjoyed that). What we did not enjoy was waiting 15 minutes for a waitress to acknowledge us, another 30 minutes to receive our appetizers, another 20 mins to receive our drinks, and our entrees didn’t show up until we were already there for almost 2 hours. The food was just okay. For the prices they charge the service is unacceptable and the food is mediocre at best. We will not be back.

    We were seated right next to the kitchen against the wall, a bit crowded with the table next to us could have had one less table for a more spacious environment. Service we had was excellent from Sandra (Great all around!!!)from appetizers & drinks, to the main courses & checking in. The table was a bit small for the meals we ordered, portions were great & was cooked to perfection. Price was in the general area of what was expected.

    This is the first time I visited this restaurant. You can tell they put a decent amount of money into the aesthetic and it looks great. We were a party of 4 for dinner and we both had the Kobe meatball appetizer and 2 had the braised short ribs, I had the cowboy ribeye and the the 4th had a filet. Everything was very good. The steaks were cooked perfectly. Mixed drinks were very good too. I'd definitely visit again.

    Wonderful location and beautiful restaurant. Sides were excellent although creamed spinach was a bit "runny". Calamari & Shrimp was excellent. Lump crab meat was excellent as well. My nephews said best smashed garlic potatoes and best mac & cheese they ever had. However, the quality of the 20 oz Ribeye was sub par and absolutely NOT Prime. Very disappointing because they came out with a nice char and looked amazing - but the meat was sub par for a restaurant of this caliber. Very disappointing.

    Food was good but the waiter wasn’t very attentive , he was very forgetful about some of the things we ask for and the hostess never came by to check on us and how our experience was so far .. Actually he actually looked us off .. I didn’t want to insinuate but we was very offended .
