Michael's Genuine Food & Drink

Michael's Genuine Food & Drink is a bustling neighborhood restaurant founded on the use of fresh seasonal products and a welcoming atmosphere. As Michael's flagship restaurant, it has exemplified Genuine Hospitality from its inception in 2007—the unique experience that comes when exquisite cuisine and considerate service are combined, crafted by a staff that is passionate about creating a great product and making people happy. It is this unique approach to dining out that locals and visitors alike enjoy and want; some may even consider Michael's Genuine Food & Drink a second home, a place where they feel welcome and that they wish to share with their friends. The enthusiasm in our main dining area is evident from the time you enter through the door and are greeted with a grin to the moment you leave. We have a lively open kitchen, with our chefs hustling about, fueling the wood oven's flames while entire fish, chicken, veggies, and pizzas fly in and out of the oven. Choose a table or a comfy booth inside, or take a seat in the courtyard, which is dotted with sun. Whether you're here for lunch, supper, or a midday break, our welcome bar is a great place to meet up with friends. With a weekly-changing menu of both savory and sweet dishes, featuring anything from breakfast pizza topped with a local farm egg and house-smoked bacon to indulgent sweets like sticky toffee buns and lemon ricotta pancakes, Sunday Brunch is the perfect way to conclude the weekend on a delicious note.
