We accommodate up to 100 guests in our semi private space or up to 225 guests for full venue buy-outs. Our events team can take care of your every need.Michael's caters both either at our place or yours! If you are planning a BBQ allow us bring our popular Char Bar to your backyard or place of business. If you desire a more upscale menu like skirt steak or salmon, we have you covered! Michael's recent, full-scale renovation resulted in a more upscale, contemporary look with a nod to the nostalgic. Our event space offers sophisticated state-of-the-art A/V, including custom colored lighting, 6 flat screen monitors and a 180" projection screen. We host a fully-equipped bar and our elevated DJ booth is now located by our dance floor -- in the back area where the ceilings are high.
