    The serving portions were generous. The food was positively delicious (Brie appetizer, Caesar salad, risotto with lobster). A friend and I were able to share everything. I will be coming back with my husband.

    Our group enjoyed our second visit to Chez Michele even better than our first one year ago. The service was excellent and each person raved about the tastiness and quality of their food. Every request was attended to promptly and professionally, and laced with a friendly approach. A meal comparable to higher end Toronto restaurants. Brava!

    We had an amazing time and meal. Chef Winston made us special burgers, two patties stuffed with mushrooms and smoked gouda cheese. They were incredible. He is a customer of ours at Olive Oil Co. and so he kindly offered us a deep fried brie with a lovely dipping sauce on the house. It was delicious. He is a gem!!

    Food is usually fantastic. We have had the Orange Roughy a number of times and it is delicious. It wasn't quite as good this time around. The dusting on the fish was very light and it wasn't quite done enough as it wasn't crispy like usual. The carrots and peppers were a little under done as they were hard to cut. The service was great as always.

    We enjoyed ourselves. The Vegan and 2 Vegetarians in our group didn't have many options and had to modify. Overall though, it was really good. If they up their game with some variety for the plant people, I would give it 5 stars!

    Considering how this restaurant came highly recommended I was overall disappointed. This highlight was the soup of the day in this case cream of potato and leek soup, excellent. Things went down hill from there. The feta appetizer was barely broiled as ordered, mediocre at best. Probably the worst Caesar salad I have ever eaten, drenched in what tasted like a bottled dreasing of some sort, bacon bits were soggy! Escargot dish, they had a firm texture but but swimming in butter and parmesean so tasting the actual escargot was a stretch. Ordered a side of fries extra crispy and they were soggy and tasteless, a French restaurant that can’t serve good fries is a red flag in my long eating history. My partner had the daily salad mixed with seasonal fruits and was quite pleased. Driving a total of 2 hours to experience this restaurant was a let down. Overall I would not recommend Chez Michel to friends and readers of this review page.

    Chez MichelResponded on August 23, 2023

    We appreciate your opinion and we remember you. You had impeccable service from Patricia and didn't utter one word of complaint while you were here. It is very hard to correct issues if you do not let us know and very easy to write damaging reviews afterward. We do make our own dressings and sell them by the litre because of the compliments. I normally apologize for poor experiences, but it seems you just dont like french home cooking. That is okay. We appreciate your patronage.

    Not your typical "French" restaurant. Unfortunately none of our party members had any idea of what type it was but we all agreed it was not truly "French" not even "Quebec French".

    Chez MichelResponded on August 12, 2023

    I am so glad we are not typical. Most of our recipes are from my parents and grand parents. Odd you dont think my french heritiage recipes are French. We do carry Poutine, if Quebec is more your style. Google helps if you dont understand the menu, our servers are well veresed in the French cuisine we serve. If you are a french speaker and would like a tour through our home recipes, my two sons and some of our servers are french first speakers.

    Since it was raining we asked and we were seated a half hour before our reservation. Service was friendly and helpful. Food came out as requested, the only downfall was that the fries were not as good as I remembered and were very heavily seasoned/salty. Chicken was delicious and so nicely cooked. Next time I would ask if they have different kinds of fries, because the last time we were there they were soooo good. It is partly what brought us back. So nice to dine in a proper restaurant that is not a chain. Will definitely be back and would definitely recommend.

    Was just average at best. They should try for great and not good enough. Caesar salad was plain. Croustini with the escargot was very underdone and a bit soggy. Not a horrible experience but certainly they could do better.

    Very charming place. Everyone in the restaurant is very friendly . We enjoy the food very much , especially the starters and salad. The room is surrounded by paintings and art work. Somehow they find out it was my birthday , when they bought in our desserts , they put a candle on the piece of cake and sang happy birthday to me in French . This is a restaurant that I would highly recommended to family and friends
