The pickles taste like nothing, just textured air. And the sandwich was 2/3 water. Just a soggy mess. Never going back

By far, one of my favorite Delis. Everything I've ever ordered has been excellent. I love the atmosphere, too. Great staff. And the owner, Steve, is great.

2nd time I've ordered the Reuben. It's perfect.

Well deserved 5 stars.
White fish- to die for.
Pickles- the same.
And super creative knishes, filled with mashed potatoes, kasha (buckwheat), or other savory meat and pastrami fillings. The owner is making every week another surprised and crazy knish. Also some desert knishes.
Stand in line as this is the definition of paradise.
But- take the food out. The place itself is not welcoming to seat and eat. Nor is the music.

Worst deli I have ever been in. There was five of us and one sandwich was pure fat, totally inedible. The owner's response was that's the corned beef is. If you don't like then don't eat it. Not my problem

I haven't been to Michael's in a long time. I need to get back there. I don't.
Know if I reviewed Michael's before, but it was good. The only reason why they gave atmosphere before is on Thursday. Renovated the place recently when I went there.
The interior of the deli is old not in France ybut that's what I like your typical old-fashioned. Neighborhood anything. You go into this big fancy. New chain type restaurant and you are. They're real nice inside of modern but the food might not be that good for the portions are small.
Another thing I noticed is the staff will respond to all the reviews whether they're good or bad.
I can't stand it when you go to a restaurant. And it wasn't that good and you put up an honest review. And there's never a response from the owner. Or staff, it's like they don't care.
