About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
Inspired Continental Cuisine in the relaxing atmosphere of a stone fireplace, a view overlooking the Thames River and the elegance of live jazz every weekend. And there's a twist: Michael's is renowned for its revival of a great restaurant tradition - Tableside Cooking. From an amazing Caesar Salad to Steak Diane to Flaming Cherries Jubilee, even flaming coffees, Michael's makes every visit a special event. Michael's offers a range of lunch favourites on weekdays and exceptional dining every evening. The selection of fine wines is varied in both region, producers and price. Dinner starts with delectable appetizers, from Escargots En Croute to Saganaki, followed by exceptional mains like Duckling A L'Orange , Prime Rib, or Canadian Sea Scallops Carbonara. Dessert at Michael's doesn't begin and end with Flaming Cherries. Try the Drunken Monkey or the Crème Brulee, or… well, you get the picture. Michael's on the Thames is London's Celebration Destination!

    We very much enjoyed our dinner at Michael's on the Thames in London, Ontario. All of our appetizers and entrees were delicious. My husband, however, wasn't crazy about the noodles in his salmon dish but he wanted to try something new so it's a risk he took! He said they tasted bland. The service was top-notch. We were catered to by various waiters/ waitresses who were all very kind and courteous and extremely prompt! I thoroughly enjoyed my birthday celebration!

    The tableside Caesar salad was not up to their usual standard (Way too much lemon) and the fish entree was overcooked.

    I thought that the food was amazing and am planning on going back again for my next special occasion dispite the error made with my bill. I asked them to split it and they put items that other people ordered on mine i didn't mention anything because i wanted the dinner to be a good experience.
