Michelle’s Lair (formerly Black & Gold Grill)

delicious food and amazing atmosphere! homemade noodles are delicious!

Holy Snikes!! What a rare treat to find Michelle's in the middle of Loyalhanna! I seriously advise everyone to find this little gem.It checks all the boxes: cozy with fireplace (winter), patio for summer, excellent wine list, a chef and owner that comes to your table to make sure the food is just right, great bar, and most off all superb service with reasonable prices! A special place.

Had a great time for a baby shower for my wife and son on the way. We had about 30 guests. Michelle was very responsive and easy to work with in coming up with a menu and planning. The staff was wonderful, friendly and great service. They were very accommodating for our flowers being delivered as well. We had barely any decorating to do as the dining room is already beautiful. I knew I loved the food already but our guests had nothing but great reviews for the wonderful dinners, especially the homemade fettuccini and gnocchi. An overall outstanding experience and would highly recommend for anyone with a private event (and also for dinner).

Cute eatery that you could mistake for a house on a street. Bathrooms were clean and the place had a cool vibe. Waitress was sitting at the bar and said we could just sit anywhere (-5 points). The cheese curds were decent. The salad was amazing. Rest of the food was decent but not spectacular. I love to support local dives but the burger came from a freezer and the steak seemed like it wasn't fresh cut cow. Again, it was good but not stellar.

Michelle Lair is the "BEST". Everytime we visit her restaurant we receive 5 star food with 5 star service. She is also a great cook with a fabulous menu with her own special touch. Warm environment and great atmosphere for dining or just hanging out!! We will definitely enjoy her restaurant time and time again. Keep up the great work. Your staff is amazing with the Best service, very knowledgeable of the menu and great hospitality. "CLASS." We love you Michelle!!!

First time customers. The staff was friendly , the atmosphere was amazing and the food was outstanding. We definitely will be a repeat customer and recommend it to anyone.

This place is fantastic! One of the best overall dining experiences I’ve ever had! We will be back often!

I don’t think I’ve ever written a review in my life, but this restaurant is worth the time to write one! The food was delicious and the staff was hospitable. Michelle, the owner, couldn’t have been more accommodating! We had the arancini as an appetizer and it was delicious. The gnocchi a la maison was to die for with the bacon jam. The homemade meatballs…yum! I was impressed with the side salad…nicely topped with fresh shaved asiago. All was reasonably priced and the wines were good! I can’t wait to go back!

Such a wonderful place. Everything and everybody is great here.

Michelle’s Lair has a little something for everyone on the menu. The staff is friendly and always smiling. Michelle herself makes an appearance to each table every single time!

We sat on the patio with our dog and they were incredibly hospitable! The fried risotto appetizer (I forget the name) is absolutely superb. The staff is great and the inside of the restaurant looks really nice. Definitely will eat here again.

Great people working there who take care of you when dining. The food was outstanding and the drinks were mixed perfectly. Do yourself a favor and make this a place to visit.

The food here is great. The burger was well prepared and tasted great. They make their own pasta and the pizza appeared to be wood fired. We sat outside which is nice and quaint but the neighbors next door were burning something and the smoke/smell was a little irritating for some in our group. Otherwise, 5 stars.

Awesome first visit! Indoor or Outdoor seating, outdoor is pet friendly. Waitress was great, owner was great. Food was great. Loved it! Thanks!! We will see you again!

Great food. Great atmosphere. Great wine! Love this place!
