Reviews of Toujours Mikes show a mixed picture: many diners describe a welcoming atmosphere and good food, with several noting excellent or attentive service especially at the bar, and dishes such as seafood pizza and salmon pesto as highlights; however, other experiences point to inconsistency, including slow service, long waits for meals or the check, and missteps like meals arriving cold or lukewarm, portions that feel small, and food missing expected sauces. Some comments mention the dining room music being too loud for the clientele, detracting from the experience, while cleanliness and appearance are described as improving but not perfect. A few reports reference payment issues at the end of the meal and confusion about charges, and one note mentions that gluten free pizza dough was no longer available. Overall, Toujours Mikes seems to deliver well when service and kitchen align, but several visits are marred by slower service, ambiance problems, or gaps in value that give a mixed impression.View restaurant profile
