    We live in a tourist area with a huge number of restaurants but Michael's on East can always be counted on to provide high quality delicious food and impeccable service. We had a most memorable evening with them welcoming us back by name and going out of their way to mix an unusual cocktail that is not typically ordered. It was delicious. I particularly enjoy the epicurean menu which changes monthly. Sitting in the lounge for happy hour is also a nice friendly experience,

    Sat at the Chef’s Counter with my wife. Service was prompt and attentive. Wine and cocktail options were varied and plentiful. Food was amazing. Will definitely return. The one minor oddity IMO was that the doors at Adeline opened at the exact time of our reservation, ie we had to wait in the street until the restaurant opened. Having a 10 or even a 5 minute overlap would allow guests to wait inside the restaurant (maybe at the bar) would add to the overall premium experience.
