The quality of the food was very good. I would recommend this restaurant for special occasions. Price point is $$$$. Wine pricing was considerably higher than other equally nice restaurants that we go too. It was busy the night we were there so the service was a little slow. Noise level was very nice. It was easy to carry on conversations with others in our group. read more

Been to Michaels about 5 or 6 times since it changed hands. I think I am finished going here after having been a customer for over 20 years. The quality of the food has definitely changed for the worse. Service is still relatively good but not as efficient or friendly as before. The bar drinks are still top notch. But the food has become mediocre and the atmosphere much less appealing. The prices for food and drink are at the absolute top for OKC prime spots. The food here no longer justifies the price. Better options at better restaurants. read more

Good food, but I'm not sure that it's worth the price. Very kind atmosphere however. The owner is very gracious. Wait staff very gracious. Will come back. read more

Michael's has always been a special place, but with no Michael there is 0 personality and hospitality is lacking. Maitre D was unapologetic about seating us where the tv didn't work, even though we asked to sit where we could see the NBA finals 45 minutes before it started. Server never smiled and barely spoke. Food was good but at this high price point, it needs to be the whole package. Won't be back. Other places with great food and more hospitable. read more

Dinner with friends Wednesday night at Michaels. I find it hard to believe that their average rating is not higher. I have never had a bad meal or experience at Michaels. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate. My only fault with the menu is they don't offer eggplant parmsean, my favorite Italian dish. They have a nice wine list and I love the bar. We started with a dozen grilled shrimp. They were very good. We also ordered humus with pita chips, also very good. Three of us ordered ceasar salads, one ordered potato leak soup. The Ceasars were good but a little strong on the garlic. The soup was excellent. Our mains consisted of Lobster Mac, Veal Paccatta, Lasagna,and Beef Stroganoff. I loved my Lobster Mac. My wife enjoyed her Veal, the Lasagna and Beef Stroganoff were excellent. To finish we shared a cream burlee. The service and our server were excellent. It was a great night, and dining experience. read more

Super expensive for what we got Service was just ok, Cesar salad used to be the bomb of awesome and this one was sad Alfredo pasta was ok Nice ambiance, just for $ spent you'll find better food elsewhere read more

Overall the meal was good. The crab cakes were excellent and the steak was tender. Service was good. Restaurant is dark, nicer than expected for a strip mall for sure. Would be good for a date night but is a little higher priced than expected and not quite on par with Ranch or Mahogany. I would definitely go again but wouldnt be my first choice at this price point. read more

Michaels was pretty expensive (over $200 for 2 people) but worth IT! The service was fast, but a little slow to get our check. There wasn't much parking by the restaurant, so we had to walk a little bit. We walked in with no reservation around 6:30 and were seated right away. The Chicken Piccata was really good and our favorite dish. The Chicken Parm was good, but not worth $45. The dessert was of course the best part - we got the Chocolate Gateau and Apple Pie Ala Mode. Will definitely be returning again! read more

Second time here 10/10. Excellent service. Food is so flavorful. One of my favorite places in okc.

I had the filet and grilled shrimp which was phenomenal. And that whiskey ice cream (or whatever it is) was absolutely delicious. It came with a plastic spoon which I was questioning, but the waiter said they switched because too many people got regular spoons frozen to their tongues. It's obvious this place prides itself on its service and people just as much as the food. read more

Very fun around the bar and a proper experience in dining. The Cesar salad and the KC strip are class.

The service and food here was great! Our waitress, riley, was efficient and she is very good at what she does! Will definitely be coming back to request her! read more

We barely made it in the door with two other friends of ours. We both have two young kids under 4 years old and we were very excited for a night away. Which does not happen very often for either of us. Apparently we were TOO excited to be away. We got kicked out before we even ordered drinks. The owner Steven Higgins very rudely told us that we had been "86d" and that we should stumble away even though we had one drink before we got there. The couple that was sitting next to us was also shocked that we had been very rudely kicked out and had no idea what was going on. We had no idea what was happening and had to last minute make other plans for our parents night out. Do not go here. I am writing this review from The Ranch down the street who are way more accommodating than Michael's Grill down the street. Thanks for nothing and your ugly pin striped suit Steven Higgins! read more

Finally visited here a few months ago after always telling ourselves we need to branch out and try here. Love the layout and atmosphere here! Great drinks that are strong the bartender is definitely not shy which who doesn't love that? The steak doesn't even compare to the ranch not as tender or juicy but it was decent. Delicious fresh salads. Oddly enough their onion rings probably were my favorite thing on the menu! Service was very fast friendly and attentive here. read more

This place is one of the top restaurants in Oklahoma if not this region. One of the comments you'll often hear is that whatever dish is being spoken of it is routinely described as " the best I've ever had and I've eaten all over the world" The original Caesar Salad in America seriously. The dishes are all great proportions. Very nice wine list and since this is actually a "steak review" I will say that Michael's Strip is mouth watering , so flavorful and very popular. Pair it up with an order of fettuccine Alfredo and you've got a winning shareable combination. Don't forget the Brandy Ice! read more

Michael is one of the very best in OKC. He offers a great variety of seafood to steak. One of my personal favorites are the wings. The chairs around the bar are the only thing that needs to be changed in order to get 5 stars. read more

We absolutely love this place. This was our second time there in a month and half and we are going again. So basically 3 times in 2 months. My husband had the lamb chops the first time and he was hooked. The next time he had the scallops and was even more hooked. The Caesar salad is delicious and the grilled shrimp appetizer is a must. Also, don't forget to indulge yourself with a brandy ice for dessert. Amazing service both times. read more

Michael is always cheerful and knows everyone in town. Food is spectacular with even better service. Cole, Michael, Jon, and Rylee provide phenomenal service. Food is always amazing and cooked perfectly. read more

New owner is delightful! Food and service were impeccable. Will be back soon! Highly recommend the grilled shrimp and brandy ice.

My (often picky and always opinionated) husband of nearly thirty years LOVED his Chicken Marsala, but I had, alas, already eaten earlier that day and so, uh, consoled myself with (yum!) a very pleasant (i.e., rich, creamy, and perfectly prepared) crème brûlée. Our dinner partners enjoyed shrimp and salad. White glove service from start to finish. Beautiful bar! read more

I cannot believe this place doesn't have 5 stars. My parents are regulars and I beg to go every time I'm in town. Michael and his wife are the absolute best. They have an extensive wine list and VERY GENEROUS pours. Okay now to the food. You cannot go wrong with anything; I have literally eaten the entire menu. But my personal faves are grilled shrimp (seriously how do they get that char?!), beef stroganoff and lasagna Do your taste buds a favor and check this place out read more

Poor owner....food is great....rude owner/manager ....best Brandy Ice in OKC...staff does a good job

I met friends here for a birthday dinner. Very unassuming location but I was greeted and shown to the table with my friends as soon as I came in. The menu is huge and very varied. Our server Michael came and took our drink order. My drink was GOOD. I'm always suspicious when I'm served alcohol in a tall glass because I feel like it's gonna be watered down. That was not the case here. My drink was strong and my friends got the same on the second round. I wasn't very hungry so I ordered the soup of the day (shrimp and lobster bisque), a Caesar salad and Brussel sprouts. The birthday girl ordered a house salad and my bestie had a Caesar as well. All were delicious and I definitely appreciated the veggies on the house salad. We ordered crème brûlée and apple pie alamode and both were delicious. My Brussel sprouts were the best. I want them again. The soup was ok. My friend had the chicken parmigiana and said it was good but could have been better and the birthday girl had the lobster mac and cheese. She said it was ok. Our server Michael was prompt. Checked in on us and our food was served in an appropriate amount of time. I'll definitely be back to try the lasagna. It looked amazing and my bestie was sad she didn't get it. read more

My wife and I were really excited to eat here. We had heard really good things and made plans to eat at Michael's on a Friday night with friends. We came early for a drink and it was nice at the bar. The service and table were very good. It was nice ambiance for a date night. Where it really fell short was the food both from a gluten-free and taste perspective. They had gluten-free noodles but couldn't make any of the pasta dishes gluten-free which didn't make a whole lot of sense. I ordered a filet instead and it really wasn't very good. The presentation was very nice but the steak had char marks and tasted like it was directly on the charcoals itself. My wife had the rack of lamb and said gluten-free so I could have some of hers. She said the lamb was good but felt like they left the glaze off because we said it was gluten-free and was lacking some flavor/texture side. We finished with the creme brûlée, and we couldn't have been more disappointed. It looked nice when it came out but the texture and flavor of the crème brulee was off. It felt curdled and 3 of us only ate half then just passed on the rest. We were disappointed overall. It is a very pricey restaurant which is ok if the food makes it all worth it, but unfortunately it was nice. We won't be back and beware if you are gluten-free, they haven't thought through the menu as well and they could have. read more

Great food and service! Went here for a dinner and got the nacho which was massive! I got the chicken masala with pasta. It was good. My husband got the spicy shrimp and shell pasta dish and loved it. Michael checked on us often which was so nice. read more

Amazing food! The BEST service! Mr Micheal himself walked out behind us too wish us a good night. Can't recommend this place enough.

First visit... it was a busy evening and we had amazing service. Plenty of staff this evening and 5 . The food was so good! We tried many dishes and they gladly wrapped up our leftovers. It was my first time trying Brandy Ice I really liked it! Lastly, I crave and dream about the croutons and scallops sauce. read more

This was our first visit to Michael's and we rather enjoyed it. It's DEFINITELY a Nichols Hills crowd. The space is intimate and cozy, and the bar was very active! Lovely menu, and the items we ordered were quite tasty. I had coconut-crusted halibut - delicious! My husband had shrimp sumbuca, which he also enjoyed. Our waiter was somewhat assuming, but he did provide good service. I always say a good tell of the quality of the bar/bartender is how an Old Fashioned is presented and how it tastes. This was below mediocre. It should always be served over a single, large ice cube, not crushed, which is what I received. And it was served with a bright red maraschino cherry rather than a luxardo cherry! Always a tell. It looked like it belonged atop an ice cream sundae. It's totally acceptable to have mediocre bar service at restaurants like Chili's, but one of the caliber of Michael's - I expected better quality. All in all, we will return to Michael's for another delicious dinner. I have very low expectations from the bar, and will likely stick to wine. read more

Don't let any of the other reviews less than 5 stars deceive you. From the menu variety, to the ambience, to the friendliness of the wait staff, our experience was off the chart. Best spot in this part of town. We tried everything and were most impressed with the mushroom tower, the chicken wings (off menu) & the mozzarella salad. read more

So what can you say about Michael's? Everything is always great. I had the onion rings and the grilled shrimp it had been a minute since I had it and it was amazing. I ended up going with the KC Strip and my wife had the Filet. Again perfect. We rounded out the night with Crem Brûlée and coffee. It was just a great night out with exceptional food and the dining experience was perfect. If your in OKC this is such a great place to grab dinner. read more

Outside looks unassuming, but the ambiance and service are quite nice. Food is overall good (some dishes are stronger than others), and the brandy ice is a great aperitif to end on. Good place for an upscale date night or family dinner read more

Called to find out more information about booking for a big party. Online it says their secluded room holds 20 people. I talked to the owner directly who was rude and condescending lecturing me on how a big party must be held accountable if the whole party does not show (which is understandable) however not giving me any useful information and basically sounding annoyed for if we chose his restaurant to give our money to. I will not be trying this place after all for my 29th birthday lol. Very unprofessional for the restaurant to be named after such a rude person who should be promoting his restaurant by being friendly and accommodating. read more

Food was amazing and the serves was even better. Not to many dinning experiences like this in OKC. Appetizers you have to try are the portabella mushroom and the grilled shrimp. read more

I can briefly describe this place in a short paragraph: -Extremely expensive for low quality, tastelsss and old food. You will not get your money's worth - poor food quality and unprofessional service. -owner needs temper or anger management because he will scream and explode at even the smallest customer complaint. This place is definitely a restaurant where the customer is never right! Do not complain at all about the food, service, or anything, because the rude, temperamental owner will scream at you in front of everyone and not feel shame! -owner's wife is also not very nice. She's very snappy and will lie directly to your face -just a suggestion: if you want a beautiful, relaxing dinner with good food, spend your hard earned money elsewhere. read more

When you first walk in it feels like a night club - it takes a good minute for your eyes to adjust to the darkness. The food is average overall although they do have a few dishes that are amazing (Caesar salad and a few mains). The shells Diablo are definitely disappointing unless your accustomed to average pasta. Wasn't blown away as I thought I would be by the place. Now, the last 2 times i attempted to get food from here, I tried to call in a to-go order one time and the second I actually went inside and asked to sit at the bar and order to-go. Both times I was told they were "too busy to take to-go orders". Let me tell you... this second time, I went in 5 minutes after they opened for dinner! How are you too busy for a to-go order!? Unreal. Anyway. Won't be trying that again. read more

A great old-school vine with terrific service, great food & the best Caesar salad you will ever have in your life

Michael's Grill brings back what was enjoyable about dining out. So many of the newer, trendier places have forgotten that good service and well prepared classic dishes are the cornerstone of a proper experience. The grilled shrimp are flawless, the Caesar salad fresh, the strip flavorful and perfectly executed and the veal saltimboca an absolute culinary hug. read more
