Theo's Steak, Sides & Spirits - St. Michael's

Casual dress, comfortable, relaxed attire is appropriate (the restaurant even notes “Shorts + boat shoes welcome!”).

Wednesdays are a standout for value, guests praise the Wednesday prix fixe, and Sundays are a nice choice for taking advantage of happy-hour deals and a relaxed dinner.

Yes, guests report dogs are welcome on the front porch; one review specifically notes a toy poodle sat with them on the front porch.

Yes, Theo's is frequently recommended for anniversaries and romantic dinners, with intimate upstairs rooms, low light, and several guests calling it ideal for special evenings.

Theo's fills up during peak visits, for example, a holiday weekend review says rooms were 'all the four tops were filled' by 8 pm, while early Saturday evenings and the upstairs dining rooms are often noticeably quieter.

Theo's offers a warm, intimate, romantic feel in a renovated, converted house with many small dining rooms; upstairs rooms are low-lit and darker, making them especially cozy for a special night out.

Yes, guests report adding celebration notes when booking through OpenTable, and one guest said the restaurant surprised their party with a cone of cotton candy and a candle after that note was added.

For a calmer visit, aim for an early dinner (around 5–5:30pm) or request an upstairs table, guests say early Saturday evenings were very quiet and sitting at 5:30 can beat the later rush. Guests also praise Wednesday prix-fixe/prefix nights if you want a special-value evening.

Some mains and special-for-two steaks are substantial, guests say the 16-ounce Chateaubriand and split Wagyu/steaks-for-two are plenty to share.
