Love coming in for a drink and the Fried Corn Nuggets!!! The area was in desperate need of a place like this. When you're there, you have no idea that the rest of the District is almost entirely empty.

I went in with high expectations but was disappointed. We dined at 5:30 (the only time we could get a reservation and since we had nothing else to do, we took it). The restaurant was pretty empty at…

There is nothing more inviting than the smell of a wood burning oven, even in Miami. This place has that, a nice wooden bar, slick design and jazz music always playing--very urbane.

If you plan on going, take a cab. Street parking is limited in this questionable neighborhood especialy after dark. I waited 25 minutes for my car at the valet stand in front. When I asked Michael's…

I really like this place -- my parents and family, not so much. Their opinions run that Michael's Genuine serves somewhat basic and boring food and while nice, and well portioned, it's not exactly…

Considering the prices and incredible press Michael's have received, 3 stars is all they deserve. The food is good/solid, but not great. I've been there several times now and have had just about…

After everything that I've read about Michael's Genuine, I wasn't surprised to find that the place was packed for dinner on a random weeknight. Luckily, I'd had the forethought to make a reservation,…

Service is rude and awful. the wait is ridiculous. Food is very good and half did not show up, but hard to enjoy because staff was very rude. Do not waste your time or money at this joint !!!!!!

Disappointing. Chef Michael Schwartz's new "in-spot" doesn't live up to his name, and despite its seeming casual concept, you'll still rack up a hefty check. Without drinks, this turned out to be about $60 per...
