    Anton & Michel’s is one of the best restaurants in Carmel! The ambience, the food and the service was outstanding! We celebrated our 35th anniversary at the restaurant and they made it very special from wishing us a happy anniversary when we walked in the door to the wonderful dessert we had at the end of the meal! We recommend this restaurant to all for special occasions or when you want a great meal with great service!

    We were warmly welcomed at the front door by the host, and promptly seated in the location we had requested in our reservation. Our server was accomodating to our requests to share dishes and even split our entree, which was nice. The starter of gnocchi was delicious, creamy, and flavorful. The beet salad, on the other hand, was bland. The beets were tasty, but the dressing was like flavorless mayonaise, and the pecans, tomatoes, and cheese were equally lacking in flavor. For our entree we had the branzino fish, which was ok, but it was small and served whole...head, eyes, tail, bones, and all. We were surprised. We finished off our meal with creme brulee and capuccino, which were both delicious. Overall the meal rated a "meh" from us; we'll try someplace else in Carmel for our next special meal out. The restaurant was not at all crowded, but the two people in the bar were so loud with their laughter it sometimes was hard to hear ourselves.
