   Disappointed. This has been my favorite restaurant for years. I take everyone to Michael’s, but last night I had a party of 6 to celebrate my husband’s birthday... And for the 1st time I was disappointed. Most of the things we tried to order from the menu were not available... So so disappointing. The service was also slow.

   Wine List, exquisite great sommelier. Food was super creative, excellent server. The desert that had the ginger ice cream was the highlight. Never have tried something similar the mix those flavors.

   The staff are not pleasant. The hostess was not a pleasure to deal with. Did not explain that the kitchen is closing for a break and that’s the reason we have to hurry with our order, was not trying to help us to get fed. The waiter was nice and was trying to help us. The food is mediocre. The atmosphere was nice.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. I requested a booth and we got one right where you walk in. It was perfect! It was an inside table but close to the outside. Best of both worlds! The food was delicious and the service was great.

    Absolutely loving the new layout. Luis was extremely attentive. He gave us great recommendations and made sure we were well taken care of. The food was great, as always. We had the lamb with roasted eggplant, the squash blossoms, king crab tostada, and wild mushroom panini. Everything was fresh and the perfect temperature. The tahini chocolate cheesecake was the perfect ending to our meal. Michael’s never disappoints!

    Have been a regular at Michael’s since the beginning (mid 2000’s). The new space is lovely but the menu is tired, the recipes just OK and it’s no longer “special”. A $30 salad, with protein, for lunch is too pricey. If it was to die for/never had something like it/ well maybe. But both salads were good but were not unforgettable. It will be a long time before I return again.

    Very limited menu for brunch . 90 percent with eggs. Only three lobsters for the day . Ran out . Too many waiters for one table made the waiters confused with questions on the drinks they did t have answers

    Portions are very small for the prices and compared to before. Good quality seems to have gone down a little and service was not great. Waited a long time for drinks, no one refilled water, flat water was poured on top of our sparkling water, table was cleared sporadically.

    Had a wonderful Father’s day brunch with my daughter and husband. The drinks were delicious and the food was impeccable! Enjoyed the hamachi crudo that was just so fresh and prefect compliment of tang and savory… the pastrami dish was exquisite and had the perfect heat and the collards were cooked perfectly - just so yummy!!! My daughter liked the breakfast pizza (although she enjoyed the burrata and peaches appetizer more 🤷🏻‍♀️). The octopus tacos were also superb … octopus was perfectly cooked and within the crunch shell it was flavorful and delectable contrast in that yummy guacamole. We followed with the toffee bread pudding and that also didn’t disappoint - it was a perfect ending - and shared amongst three … couple bites each with dad getting an extra bite since it his day after all! our brunch was a delightful experience and we can’t wait to return !!! Our server, David, was amazing and knew the menu so well; he described every dish we asked about so well that we ordered without hesitation and were delighted with every bite!

    Service was exceptionally slow. Food took forever and then it was just ok. I had the chicken and it was so tough that it was hard to eat. It was served on a bed of ceasar salad that was wilted from the hot chicken and flavorless. Caviar service was good but pricey for what it was. I’ve had better meals for half the price.

    A culinary hotspot in the Miami Design District. Recently renovated, with a stylish bar and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of interesting menu items (with good-sized portions) and an extensive, imaginative wine list. Friendly, attentive service. Don’t forget to make a reservation. Mareni & Bob

    Michaels Genuine Food was genuinely amazing! My wife and I were visiting from Austin and this was the last restaurant we visited on our trip. The food was delicious! We had the ceviche (wife hates seafood but even she devoured some), the black truffle pizza (so much flavor and it was cooked to perfection, crunchy yet soft) and a shrimp bread which was delicious. Our servers name was Luis and he was super knowledgeable about the menu and crafted a visual for us to know exactly what to expect from the food. He even brought over the Sommelier, Rey, who was able to recommend the most delicious wine after we explained what kind of wine we liked. We were open to trying something new and we were blown away by the service and taste of everything. The outdoor seating is also nestled in between two building so you don't get a ton of sun so you can eat here anytime! The restaurant manager Ellick also swung by to make sure everything came out great. I would recommend anyone who likes good food and good service to stop by because man I wish we visited everyday. Go to this place!!!

    The food was exceptional, we ordered drinks, an appetizer, a main course, and dessert. Each dish was better than the last. Can highly recommend the crispy squash blossoms and the house made campanelle. My only complaint is that our server was a little bit inattentive. She often would walk in our direction and then turn around when she got close, it was odd. We also had to ask for water several times as she was not actively refilling our cops. Another thing is that it was a little loud in the restaurant and it was difficult to hear her over the noise. However, I will definitely be going back to Michael’s Genuine. The food was great and appropriately priced and the overall experience was very good.
