The hostess and the waitstaff were wonderful. We got our food promptly, and it was delicious. I ordered a pizza for my daughter to go, and she also loved it. I'll be back.

Food and ambience was great but service was poor (perhaps our waiter was just having a bad night) - the restaurant was not full but it took quite a while for our drinks to b served, salad I requested was not ordered until I flagged down another waiter, meals were luke-warm when delivered after a long wait.

Dined here with friends. Georges is a small neighborhood gem. Food was delicious! Gnocchi with braised beef, rack of lamb, seafood, pasta, and pizza were devoured. Unfortunately, the open kitchen was noisy making conversation difficult. We will definitely return and when we do, seating in the lovely outdoor area will be our choice. Problem solved! This is one of the best dining experiences I’ve had this year. Excellent food! - and for the most part reasonably priced. I am already planning my return. Highly recommended!
