This is a delightful spot. The food was outstanding, and the service staff were kind, attentive, and prompt. Another underappreciated element: the bathrooms were neat and very clean. This place would have easily made my top 10 restaurants visited in 2025. As of January 2026, it has the #2 spot - only behind a renowned steakhouse in Atlanta. Keep up the great work!

I was a vendor there this past Sunday doing a photobooth for a holiday party. Mike the owner was very accommodating. Plenty of parking and easy load in and out for my equipment. Food was excellent as well. Highly recommend for your next event or a night out for dinner! 5 ✨

Michael's Riverside is one of our favorite restaurants. Their food is excellent. Everyone there is always welcoming and friendly. Weather you go there for dinner, grab takeout, order catering trays or have an event there, you can never go wrong! They do it all, perfectly! They are known for their penne vodka, but the chicken parmigiana & almond crusted fish are equally outstanding. I highly recommend that you check out Michael's Riverside.

We brought a tour group to this restaurant and the food they provided was expansive and delicious! Multiple, well prepared main dishes including salmon, stuffed pork chops, tasty pasta, and more. The service was top drawer and very attentive. We were from Michigan and it was the best restaurant so far in the tour!

The mood for me wasn't great due to the fact that I was there for a repast, but the food and the service were tremendous! I would definitely book a reservation to go there again on a happier occasion.
