- JJessieNew York City •21 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoMichael Jordan's never disappoints. It was my husbands birthday & he loves MJ, so we drove an hour or so for dinner. He had the grilled octopus for an app & the NY strip. I had the wedge salad (the best !) & filet lollipops. The lollipops were an app but there was alot of meat. Everything was excellent. Our server was attentive & helpful with questions we had. My husband had the baked alaska for dessert. Another reason we keep coming back. I don't know another restaurant that has it. Overall, great food cooked perfectly & great service. Thank you !!More infoMichael Jordan's Steak House - Mohegan SunPrice: Very Expensive• Steak• Uncasville•4.7
- PPamVIPNew York City •8 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoLove the change to a price fixe or chefs tasting menu. We went for Christmas Eve and loved the experience. We had a great server, love the ambiance and the food was delicious and innovative. The price fixe is three courses, but they give you more to try. It was more than a dinner out, it was an experience. I highly recommend.More infoThe EssexPrice: Expensive• American• Old Saybrook•4.8

Crème brûlée was the best I have ever had and I order it frequently. It was such a lovely experience! Staff was smiling, food was delicious, gorgeous sunset. Booked it on a whim and it turned out to be a very special evening.More infoThe Wharf-Madison Beach HotelPrice: Expensive• Unspecified• Madison•4.7
