    We live in a tourist area with a huge number of restaurants but Michael's on East can always be counted on to provide high quality delicious food and impeccable service. We had a most memorable evening with them welcoming us back by name and going out of their way to mix an unusual cocktail that is not typically ordered. It was delicious. I particularly enjoy the epicurean menu which changes monthly. Sitting in the lounge for happy hour is also a nice friendly experience,

    If you want a spectacular dining experience, go to Chataeu Anna Maria. Went for Christmas dinner. Ambience gets a 10 along with food & service. Shout out to Sarah, our server. Price was reasonable. Kudos for the “Jingle-tini” Christmas cocktail!🍸

    Our wait staff was great. Savana was excellent! Good recommendations, friendly and attentive! We have a family member who eats vegetarian and he loved the stuffed portobello. Our meals were delicious. Outdoor ambience was perfect. Could not have been better. Shared ice cream dessert of coconut and espresso chocolate was wonderful! Thank you for such a lovely holiday dining experience!
