In 1991, Mike Hamilton, a veteran restauranteur, purchased what would become Michael's on the Lake, marking the begging of a long and lasting presence in Moses Lake community.
Originally a restaurant with a lively night club, the space was reimagined in 2006 by the Hamilton family and transformed into the elegant lakeside restaurant it is today. Mike's son Jordan has grown alongside the restaurant playing an active role in the restaurants journey and helping to carry the family's vision forward.
More than just a restaurant, Michael's on the Lake is a family legacy rooted in humble beginnings, strengthened by community, and sustained through unwavering dedication to hospitality, quality, and connection.
Stop in, Say hello, and enjoy a delicious meal, handcrafted cocktails, and a beautiful view. We'd also love you to experience our other restaurants, Michael's Market & Bistro and Rock Top, each with its own unique flavors and atmosphere.
