Amazing menu and cocktails. The scallops are amazing and one of the best duck dishes I have had… beautiful presentation. Excellent staff friendly attentive and warm atmosphere. My favorite is to see dogs with their owners stop at the front door eager to receive a goodie..

We dined at the George on Thanksgiving day. Gary's service was unmatched. The milk bread and pumpkin soup were delicious. Adult beverages were tasty and plentiful. Even the brussels sprouts were good (and I don't like brussels sprouts). A bit pricey, but worth it for the occasion.

Spectacular meal with incredible service. I was a bit disappointed by the dessert selection, but I'm a pastry chef with high standards and an Italian background. Very beautiful environment and the staff treated us well at every interaction. Will absolutely return here.
