    I saw Andrew Michaels it was recommended by the Michelin guide so we had to come try it! The food…read morewas pretty great. It's a family style Italian-mix dishes. My favorites were the Foccia bread (very buttery), the lemon chicken and the gnocchi. The ambience is a nice candlelight dinner for a cute date night or special event. We made a reservation in advanced and they had a complementary valet outfront, which made for a no stress experience. Our waitress was kind, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The menu is rotating with the seasons, a bit on the pricier end, which is expected, but really wasn't too bad for such high quality.

    Several people recommended Andrew Michael Italian Kitchen for its fun concept every last Wednesday…read moreof the month. Chefs Andy Ticer and Michael Hudman, own this establishment (also Catherine & Mary's, Hog & Hominy, and Little Bettie Pizzeria). I recommend making reservations via phone or Resy online. They do offer complimentary valet service here. The street parking can be rough, as there are several other restaurants in this particular street area. It is more on the romantic and private side. The lighting scene is perfect. There is a full bar at the far back of the restaurant. FOOD: We tried the WTF (What the Food) Wednesday experience, priced at $75 per person, with optional wine pairings available for an additional cost. The dinner consists of five secret dishes created from local ingredients. Guests are kept in suspense until the very end, when they receive a handwritten menu from the chefs to take home. 1. Chicken Liver Toast (4/5): As a foie gras lover, I guessed this one correctly. The flavor was great, but it would have been even better if the toast had been served warm. It was rather cold. 2. Sweetbread Piccata and Celery (5/5): My second favorite dish of the night. The flavor profile was beautifully balanced, from the horseradish to the celery. We were completely fooled, as we thought it was some type of meat and didn't realize it was sweetbread piccata. 3. Spinach Gnocchi and Pumpkin (5/5): We were in love. Everything about this dish was heavenly, from the spinach-infused gnocchi to the brown butter, sage, and pumpkin. I would happily order a full entrée portion and take some to-go home. 4. Pork Shank with Risotto (3/5): Our least favorite dish due to the saltiness. The spinach was heavily salted, so we ended up picking it out. The pork shank itself fell off the bone and was cooked well, but overall the dish wasn't memorable. 5. Sweet Potato Cake and Vanilla Gelato (3/5): My fourth favorite. I don't recall much sweet potato flavor, but the dessert was pleasant enough. The service was great. Our server was personable and attentive. There was a slight delay between courses, but it didn't detract significantly from the experience. Would I return? Yes, would like to try more of the main menu items.

    Great service, food and drinks perfect. Mimosa was very good…read more Will definitely be back.

    If you like fancy pizza, this place is for you. Walking in,…read moreit looks very modern. You know, the plain type. The type that does look good, but barely has decor. We came at lunch right when they opened with no reservation, which was fine. There was plenty of seating but it did get a little busier by the time we left. The hostess and our waitress were very nice and attentive. This place is NOT kid friendly. Which is fine... not everyplace has to be kid friendly. I just want parents to know up front that they do not have a kids menu. I asked what kid friendly options there were and our waitress suggested a few, but we decided on just a cheese pizza. This was for my 3 year old and he did not eat it, but neither did my other 2 kids (ages 7 and 11) when we brought it home. It had no seasoning and a very tomato taste. We got the poutine as an appetizer. I forgot a picture of it. My husband has had this before in Canada and he loved it. However, this one wasn't up to par. He enjoyed it, but said an authentic one is much better. I personally couldn't eat it. The gravy was just too weird. As a main course, I had the "Mikey Likes It" pizza. It was good if you like basil. It was very heavy on the basil. It was a bit burnt though. My husband had the special which was a chopped cheese. He said it was good, but nothing to brag about. I'm not a sauerkraut fan, the bite I had was good, but I wouldn't have been able to eat all of it. The fries as a side were good and crunchy. Overall, we probably won't be back. It's just not our style. Not our type of "fancy" food. This is one of those "mark of I've been there" things. Give it a try for yourself because it's not terrible.
