Michael’s Kitchen

Not great, I have experienced better most of the time I go out. Limp side salad that was $.5 for bluecheese dressing that I know was from a bottle cuz I know my bluecheese dressing and $ 1.5 for cheese on the salad. Just to get get home and have a limp salad with crappy bluecheese dressing. The main course was o-​ok (3stars). Thought I had a detour since wildflower is closed but no.

The gyros are excellent! So is any breakfast! We’ve been going there for years and have never been disappointed. Highly recommended

I’ve only been once but the experience was terrible. Cold, tasteless food and dirty silverware and dishes. The waitress was very nice but that was about the only positive. I won’t be back.

Love this place! So many options on the menu!!! Home cooked meals at its finest! And it’s priced right!!!

I have eaten here before and had great experiences. Today the waitress took forever to take our order, then just dropped the food off and didn’t bother checking back. My steak was barely warm and my fries were cold after waiting to return it I realized she wasn’t coming back so I just ate it. When checking out the cashier who appeared to be a manager told me how her food gets cold before she can eat it when she’s working and didn’t seem to care about my experience. Won’t be back.

Terrible dinner here tonight. Ordered Short Ribs and got Pot Roast. Steaks are thin and chewy. Onion soup came with out cheese ontop. They refused to let me take my dessert home instead of eating it there. It came free with the dinner and I always ask for it to take home. I don’t know what’s going on here, but I won’t go back. That food has never been that good.

My boyfriend and I went on May 10^th, Mother’s Day, and it was packed. The poor servers were running around non stop, so when our food took 45 minutes we weren’t really upset. When our food did come, I found a large chunk of ham in my omelette. I am a vegetarian. I ordered a vegetarian omelette. At that point I no longer trusted anything on my plate and left without finishing, it can already be hard to find vegetarian options at restaurants without having to worry about errant chunks of meat finding their way into your food. Bottom line, it’s unacceptable for a restaurant to be careless with ingredients.

I have been coming here forever, never had a bad meal, if your ever in the area check this place out for dinner the fish & chip’s are awsome and they have the best french onion soup!

I used to go here almost every Sunday. You can never go wrong with getting some breakfast on your way home from church, and this is the place to stop! Great service, great food, awesome prices, and always treated like family!

I decided to try something new for breakfast. Maybe I caught Michael’s on a bad day. Maybe they were offended that I wasn’t drinking coffee, which they push kind of aggressively. I don’t know, but the one waitress was kind of surly and mine only came over 3 times and never checked back on me. I had to borrow Frank’s red hot from the table across the aisle. Most places are pretty quick for breakfast, but almost 15 minutes for an omelette? Holy cow! If the food was good I would give them another chance, but it was only mediocre.

They are celebrating 37 years in business. This restaurant has a fantastic outer décor, where it is evident that someone with a green thumb has created a pleasant landscape to catch the eye of passers-​by. Judging by the never-​empty parking lot, apparently their meals are equally well attended to.
Upon entering the outer door, the restrooms are located off to the left. Various notices of menu specials are on the white board off to one side and also posted on the inner entrance door, windows and walls.
Theresa was my server last evening. She took my drink order and allowed time to look over the menu. I settled on the steak stir fry and it was an excellent choice on my part.
For $ 7.99, my meal came with complimentary bread basket, soup (4 flavors offered) and salad (bleu cheese 50¢ extra), the entrée, and finally, dessert. My soup was excellent, the salad was ample, and by the time my entrée arrived, I knew I wouldn’t be able to finish it. Half-​way through the steak stir fry, I requested a carry-​out container to capture the remainder for a future meal.
Bonus: I didn’t realize my meal also came with dessert, so I felt kind of guilty when I accepted (from a list of four) a slice of warmed apple pie with whipped cream atop. Not guilty enough to turn it away, but just a little guilty. Rest assured, I did a fine job in making sure that plate was clean, to help make the guilt go away.
On a side note, the wait staff does an excellent job in busing tables.
No military discount, but they offer seniors (62 & up) discount on $ 8 or more; they also have a Seniors section on the back page of the menu. Other items on the menu are favorably priced, making this a great local-​diner type of meal destination.

Decided to go to Michaels for dinner. Cannot go wrong with that decision. I ordered an 8oz. steak, baked potato, soup (beef goulash), salad, and dessert all for $ 7.99. My wife had chicken Parmesan with spaghetti, soup (Italian Wedding), and dessert for $ 5.99. Service was great. Food came quickly. It was a very delicious meal and very filling.

Only been here twice and never will be back. Both times food was horrible! Thought it might have been just the a fluke the first time but nope the second was just as bad! It wouldn’t let me give no stars or else I would.

Personable, friendly service makes food taste better. Excellent value for $$ with good portions. Diner with a touch of pineapple slice that I am loving.
Steak N Eggs — perfectly made. Steak is dependent on steak sauce for flavor. Shareable.
Coffee — bottomless cup with light flavor.

Found this place by accident, and shame on us because the place is so close to our house. First, the food selection is just amazing. From breakfast plates to steak dinner extravaganza. Second, the portions are just right AND delicious. My husband and I ordered the barley with mushroom soup. It was so good, it made me happy. From there on, I know I’m a very satisfied customer. We are definitely returning.

We had soup for 5, 3 came out, 20 minutes for the other 2 ! Brother ordered a salad with dressing on the side, came out slathered on top. I got a gyro pita, pita was like cardboard, two small pieces of lamb, tomato almost non existent. Our niece ordered a steak medium rare, pretty much well done is what she got — they did make her another to go, since we didn’t want to wait any longer. It took 2 hours for us to get through dinner. The waitress was obviously overwhelmed on a Friday without enough help.

Great prices on food.
Large portions.
Favorites: Fish and Chips, Friday night (homemade) — Clam Chowder, hot turkey sandwich, burgers
You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.

I’m really torn on reviewing here now.
Saturdays and Sundays, this place has a solid breakfast menu (which is available all day/​night as well), and their breakfasts are really great. I’d give it a five star on that alone.
However…popped in here for dinner one night, and all three of us got horrifically ill. Look, I’m not saying it WAS the food, and I’m not saying it WASN’T the food… I’m just saying that the one and only point that all three of us had in common from that day was being at this place roughly four hours before the onset of symptoms…
…that, you’re welcome, I will spare you the details of.
So it COULD have been a coincidence… but I also haven’t ventured back here for a weekend breakfast since, either. I don’t believe in living your life in fear… but I also don’t believe in juggling with knives, either.
All in all, the same thing could happen anywhere I suppose, and with the number of times I’ve been there for those weekend stacks of pancakes, I suppose one bad experience would be par for the course… but…yeesh, this was a doozy.

This is my first time giving a one-​star review.
So please enjoy.
I live near Michael’s Kitchen and have never tried it before but always wanted to.
So when my friend and I went Saturday morning we were expectations because it was very busy and it seemed to be the place to be and since it was busy that should be a sign that the food is good and the service is good too.
I honestly cannot remember when I had because my rage was so blinding due to the WORST service I’ve ever experienced in my life.
Let me give you the run down.
When I asked her for a refill of my water when she came back to check on us she SCREAMED at me «I’M GETTING IT RIGHT NOW! CAN’T YOU SEE ME!?»
Then when I asked her for an extra napkin she, again, shouted «I’M REALLY BUSY! YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT!!!»
She was so mean and nasty, she even gave me judging dirty looks every time she walked by my table and every time I asked her for something too!
Now, listen, she wasn’t some 20-​something wet-​behind-​the-​ears girl who hates her job because she’s really trying to become and «actress/​singer/​model», oh no, she was an older woman who seemed to be doing this for a long time.
Why would someone act like this, especially knowing I have to tip you at the end of our lovely experience?
By the way, I didn’t tip her, so basically she and I are BFF’s.
I won’t be back, suck it Michael’s Kitchen.

I love a good deal & Michael’s is all about good food & really good prices. Example: today at lunch I had a cup of tasty cabbage soup, a decent sized portion of totally decent mac & cheese, a couple pieces of deep fried cod, a bowl of sweet/​overly creamy cole slaw, & a piece of caramel walnut apple for $ 4.95. Yes, $ 4.95. My total out the door with tax & tip — $ 6.75. That’s a deal.
The service is fine. Lunch time is always busy, so the waitresses always seem a bit rushed. Smoking & non-​smoking sections are litterally intermingled — a temporary problem now given the smoking ban that goes in effect on 5÷1÷10. Their menu is extensive with lots of daily specials, which means there is something for everyone even though it might not be prepared perfectly.
This isn’t gourmet food. However, Michael’s has been open since 1977, so they’ve been doing something right. I haven’t had breakfast here, but I saw some omlettes being served and they looked pretty good. Gives me a reason to go back.
