    Michael’s never fails! From the moment you arrive until the moment you leave, it’s first class food and service all the way. This is fine dining at its best and I challenge you to find a better steak in city than Michael’s. My wife and I are already looking forward to our next visit.

    Surrounded by NOISE. Very UNromantic setting ambience for our 38th wedding anniversary!! So disappointed. The music choice was a quiet boom boom..why??? .would think more sophisticated choice. Our view was a table of 8 loud men, in t shirts!!! Would expect at least a dressy casual. Other guests also in polo's....Not nice. A second glass of wine at $43..was forgotten and late in arriving . Food was very good, well presented and served by professional staff. The Maitre' d was focused on that table of 8 men with frequent visits but did not stop at our table. Unprofessional on his part. Our total bill was about $500.00. Worth it overall...No. Michael's in Las Vegas, our absolute favourite and dined there numerous times never disappointed. Our bills there of the same amount are absolutely worth it. It is a totally fine experience and leave 100% satisfied. A "gratuitous" plate with 2 cookies, a few scattered blueberries and 2 raspberries was astonishing, rather embarrassing and disappointing at best... In summary, I would have expected sooo much more for the financial output.

If you want to experience world class cooking, this is the place. Oh and the vintage wines is a nice thing to. Rare vintages if your into that. Thanks to everyone at Michael's on Simcoe.

    The service was completely world class. We had Amanda as our server and she was impeccable. The food started out perfectly. I had a glass of their Tempranillo which was an outstanding value. Our kale salad was fresh, interesting and clearly the kale had been massaged. We ordered the Branzino, a filet and frenchfries. The Branzino a la bouillabaisse was quite good, but not exceptional. The filet was expensive and average. The French fries were unimaginative. I would try it one more time to see if it was an off night because the setting is terrific, but this meal was not 5 stars to us.

    Michael's continues to be a favorite for pre-theatre steak dinner. Atmosphere, service, food and wine continue to impress. But $600 for two is a huge increase over pre-covid prices and will limit future returns...

It was one of, if not the best meal any of us have ever had. The staff was super knowledgeable and very accommodating. The sommelier was outstanding! Definitely recommend dining here if you’re looking for a great meal and great service.

The dessert of cheesecake with a happy birthday on it made the evening fabulous. Thank you again for a very enjoyable evening and will be back soon
