Michael's Bistro & Tap House

I love Michael’s — the food is good (not overly expensive), and they have a nice beer/wine selection.

It’s definitely a little ritzier than the other bars/restaurants on the Corner, but not overly so. The service can be slow, but that’s why you order a Black & Tan early and start drinking.

After much debate, my boyfriend and I finally decided to go out to Michael’s on the corner. We decided to wait for a table on the balcony to enjoy the perfect weather. Our server was incredibly attentive and helpful with our entree decisions – despite a minor setback (explosion) at the fryer in the kitchen! Each flavor of both our meals had been carefully selected to please anyone’s palate, however. My boyfriend ordered the pork loin, which apparently required the longest prep time. Our server was cheerful and informative, and the wait was well worth it. We ended the evening with a sizable brownie a la mode (certainly the best bang for your buck!… Easily serves two.) Will be going back soon! Great service, incredible food, great price value, and fabulous atmosphere!
