    The food was good, but we were seated on the second floor, which has a rather bland environment. Our server was efficient, but not very cordial and lacked any enthusiasm. The guests seated next to our table were extremely loud, making the dining experience something less than expected from Michael Anthony’s.

    The server was very kind, and the food was outstanding. We normally would not dine at such a high-class restaurant, but we are glad we did. The food for all four of us was delicious! I especially loved the "pudding" for dessert. Wow!

    We have dined at Michael Anthony's many times over the years. The food is always excellent! The service is always attentive without being disruptive. Our expectations are set high when we go in and are always met or exceeded.

    Would have liked to sit downstairs. Food was great. Remind your servers not to ask if the food is delicious, but rather, how is it? We will be back.
