Acerca de este restaurante

When you visit Chef Geoff's in Washington D.C.., you will quickly find out why it was voted Diner's Choice by OpenTable in 2016. This is just one of six restaurants opened by namesake Chef Geoff since 2000. Whether you choose to dine in the bright and cheery dining room or the outdoor patio, the highly trained staff at Chef Geoff's will ensure you have the best dining experience possible. The extensive menu created at Chef Geoff's showcases unique dining options you won't find anywhere else. Appetizers such as spiced plantain chips, grilled asparagus bruschetta and crispy brussel sprouts will prepare your palette. Bacon and bleu cheese mussels, wild mushroom ravioli and madras curry chicken are just three of the choices on the entree menu. If something more classic is to your liking, stick with standards, such as steak, pizza, or a burger. No matter what you choose, disappointment is not an option.

We chose Chef Geoff's because of it being located directly across from The Warner Theater and we had a show that evening. The service was really quick; we finished our dining within 1 hour (appetizers, entrees, desserts). They wanted to make sure we got to our show in time which I thought was very courteous. The food was pretty good; had the fish tacos and the flourless chocolate cake (which was actually amazing). Our server wasn't very personable but I don't know if that's because his goal was to get us to our show in time. Either way, will definitely visit when I go back to a show at the theatre!

Pork chop dinner was great! Thick, juicy, tender bone in chop served with some pink on a bed of mixed vegetables & spätzle. Limited, but decent wine by the glass list. Friendly, knowledgeable server. Restaurant was too noisy; too crowded with tables!! I plugged my ears to block out all the noise.

I can certainly understand why this restaurant closed. I was disappointed with the menu and service. The food was average and the service very poor. The staff did not seem motivated to serve the diners and I felt they had an attitude that they were doing the diners a favor. As a culinary professional, I expected more and anticipated more so no loss there!

WE went her becaose it was convienent to Motown the Musical. We were seated very promptly and asked if we were going to the show. The waiter assured us that there would be no problem (there was no problem). I had scallops and they were delicious as was the wine that the waiter suggested. I am not mentioning what my wife had because it currently slipped my mind. We will return.

Chef Geoff's Downtown is my favorite stop before or after a show at the Warner. We had a late dinner after the Sunday evening performance of The Nutcracker with kids in tow. Service was quick and friendly even though things were clearly winding down for the night. Our waiter helped us deal with our picky eater and found her favorite things that could be cobbled together into a lovely meal. I had the excellent blackened strip steak and am still thinking about the fried potato wedges served on the side!

We have dined at Chef Geoff's several times over the years and often leaving feeling frustrated. The food is consistently good but the front house atmosphere is always chaotic and seemingly unorganized. We were immediately seated but it took at least 15 minutes for our overwhelmed and overworked server to take our order. The food arrived quickly but we had no silverware to eat it with and no staff in sight to ask for it. Most tables around us had delays in getting their food and quickly became inappropriately rude to the server. The delay was obviously not her fault but she was the one who had to answer to the angry diners. Our cappuccinos arrived cold. Our server took the time to remake them. The whole experience took an hour and 45 minutes. WE have learned to cushion our time prior to showtime at one of the local theaters but Chef Geoff's is in close proximity to three theaters and must always have a busy per-theatre crowd yet there has been no obvious skill in managing this crowd over the years. In the restaurant's defense, many of the diners were simply beastly and demanding as it was clear they don't dine out often. Too bad really.

The staff sat us in the wine room for our special occasion, which was wonderful. As the tables filled, it began to get louder it was more difficult to have a conversation less than 12 inches away.

We booked a lunch reservation today, and when we arrived we were told "I don't know why it let you book a table, we don't have any seats." The manager delivered this message and actually seemed frustrated with us (?!?). We were then told that we could sit in the unreserved bar area and the four of us squeezed into a table that was barely large enough for two. We waited approximately 20 minutes before a server approached and the overall service was very slow. The restaurant was woefully understaffed for what should be an expected crowd just prior to the Nutcracker matinee across the street at the Warner Theater. Our family used to be huge fans of this restaurant group and had patronized the restaurants dozens of times, but after a series of disappointments at Lia's, downgrades to the children's menus and this experience, we're done.

I have been to Chef Geoff's several times before and the past experiences have been great. However, the most recent dining experience left little to be desired. The host/hostess were great, but as we were guided towards the back dining room, there were candles left on the chairs with rolled up table cloths--which, is a fire hazard. The host quickly moved those off from the chairs to avoid knocking the candles over. Our waiter was nice, but not super conversational. I don't have a problem with that, not every is super talkative, I get it. We were told from the beginning that one of the specials of the night was a smaller version of the short rib entree for $14. I asked if it will be the exact same dish and he assured me that it is, except it will be a smaller portion. My friend and I ordered the short rib small portion sample. When we received our food, it was grilled beef on two slider buns. I was confused, so I informed the waiter that we ordered the short ribs, and he might have brought us the wrong dishes. His reply was "Oh, yes, unfortunately, we are not doing that special tonight, so the chef made the sandwich with the beef instead". My friend and I were both disappointed because 1) we were not told that the special was not available for the night. Had we known, we would have ordered something else on the menu, or the actual short rib entree. 2) a decision was made by the restaurant to serve us an alternate dish, instead of asking us if we would be ok with the substitution. The substituted dish was not very tasty. This was poor management and although the waiter said he could take the plates back to change the order, we didn't want to waste the food, and we didn't want to wait around another 20-30 mins for our entree when 2 other people at our table are already eating and we had somewhere else to go after dinner. Regardless, poor judgment and poor service is never an excuse, especially when the restaurant wasn't very busy that night. We will not be returning.
