I have now been to this restaurant 4 times and it has always been superb but my experience last night was so fantastic, I had to write this review. We had a reservation at another restaurant and they were so incredibly behind on seating that my husband and I had to leave after waiting almost an hour beyond our reservation time. We took a chance and walked into Michaelangelo’s on a busy Valentine’s Day evening hoping they may have space. Understandably, they didn’t. The hostess was pleasant and welcoming. She suggested waiting in the bar and that a seat may open up and took my coat for me. We walked into the bar area and it was full. We decided to wait 5 more minutes before accepting our loss because it was after 9 and they would be closing at 10. Just as we were considering leaving, a man approached us from behind the bar asking if we needed help (if I recall correctly, I believe his name was John). I explained what happened at the prior restaurant and that we were waiting to see if a bar seat might open up. He empathized with us and immediately offered an open bar table or said we could wait on a couple guests that were cashed out and about to leave from the bar but that they would definitely get us seated somewhere. I was ecstatic and so grateful. We ended up getting the bar seating. The bartender was lovely. She was very attentive, and efficient. We had a wonderful time. Michaelangelo’s saved the day and they are now our absolute favorite restaurant in the area. The food is amazing, the staff is so considerate and helpful, and the atmosphere is inviting and comfortable.
