Susan took care of my mother and I at lunch today. She was absolutely fantastic. Menu knowledge, service, vibe, everything about was perfect. I have owned and operated restaurants most of my adult life. Seriously one of the best servers I’ve ever had. Aside from Susan the food was equally as amazing. She was so sweet even surprised us with a piece of chocolate cake to celebrate me getting my cast off of my arm! 1000% recommend the restaurant and highly recommend asking for Susan when you go! She is super cute too!
We were visiting in town for my partner’s work trip. Hannah took care of us and every thing was amazing. From her bubbly personality, top tier drinks, and to the chef’s amazing cuisine, you can’t go wrong.
I love this place! I’ve already been twice in the past month—once for breakfast and once for dinner. It’s always packed, but I’ve been lucky with timing and managed to snag a table for two without a reservation.
The carpaccio, pasta was excellent and the ribeye was perfectly cooked to liking. Manhattan was also super good! The snapper was ok!
We come to Georges Bistro at least once a month (sometimes more!) because it’s truly that special. It’s our go-to spot for date nights—the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service is always top-notch. The waiters consistently take the time to explain the menu in detail, which makes the experience feel even more personalized.
My husband and I went here for my birthday for the first time and we have nothing but good things to say about everything. The environment was beautiful. The food was phenomenal. I had the pomegranate molasses lamb and my husband had the ribeye steak frites. I also had two of their seasonal cocktails, the home for the holidays horchata and getting figgy with it. For dessert, we shared the seasonal creme brulee. It was all absolutely worth the price, and a great place for a fancy date night.
An Unforgettable Anniversary Dinner at George’s Bistro
We have dined here many times, but never for lunch. It was a lovely day, so we sat outside. There are two consistent qualities at George: 1, the service is prompt, friendly, and efficient, and served with casual elegance. Mary-Mc was our server and did an outstanding job. 2, the chef is willing to take new chances with sauces, soups, and cuisine. There is always plenty to eat, and I have never had a dish I would not recommend.
Wow! What a great place! We ate here for brunch on Sunday. Seeing the crowd of cars when we pulled in, we were hopeful that its popularity was an indicator of the food and experience. We were not disappointed!
