The staff was so nice and friendly, especially to our 3-year old son. They brought out a balloon for him and he had a fantastic time, which means we had an even better time.

For most restaurants, Mother's Day brunch is a general sh*tshow, but not here. They managed their reservations well, and the food was great too (as was the bottomless mimosas and bloody marys). The young woman playing the piano provided perfect background music, and my mother had a great brunch.

George’s food and ambience are good & its been a treat to dine there in the past. Last night the low ceilinged, hard surfaced dining room had live jazz. The music was fine but too harsh and loud for the room & for dining. If you came for music & sat at the bar it might have been a good experience. If you wished to talk: good luck. How loud was the music? My ears still hurt.
