George Restaurant

Tasting menu was fabulous

Amazing experience. We got the tasting menu and it was superb.

Great food

Overall very good service and atmosphere if a bit posh.
Food was good but for the price it should be outstanding not just good.
I'd recommend it for someone who doesn't mind splurging and hung nice evening but is not to picky on food part of the experience.

This was our first time dining at George. The building in which the restaurant is situated looks like a warehouse from the street. Once inside you feel that you are in a very special and unique space. Exposed brick, old wooden floors and dark ceilings give the dining room a classic European vibe. The dining area is large and divided into 3 areas or so. On arrival, we had cocktails at the small cozy bar area. We then were guided to a lovely table in the front dining area adjacent to windows adorned with unique iron castings. The tables were elegantly set with fresh linens and sparkling stem-ware. Our waiter was from Normandy in France and his friendliness and attentiveness significantly enhanced our dining experience. I even got to speak a little French. The fresh salads had just the right amount of dressing, the venison was a little over-cooked while the halibut was perfect. The home made sorbet could have been better (it was not quite sorbet) but the coffee was spot on. The wine selection was excellent with a special collection of Spanish wines being offered on the night we dined. This is a trendy night spot for the well-heeled who will not mind spending a little extra money for a unique dining experience. I would definitely recommend George to a friend!

It was a wonderful evening. Very impressive on all levels. If we were staying longer in TO we would return for what I’m sure would be another amazing dining experience. Congratulations to all who work there 😊

amazing dinner, wine list is KILLER, and they bent over backwards to make our tasting menu as customized as possible. Server Justin and Som Ryan were both A+ in service
Thanks Again

George is a must-do experience in Toronto. The restaurant has a great, trendy, welcoming vibe. We had cocktails to start, all of which were delicious, and the wine list had a fantastic selection. The food was out of this world. None of us could decide what we liked best, but would highly recommend the lobster on the firsts menu, the scallops and the pork belly on the seconds menu, and the chocolate pudding for dessert. The place was packed when we went on a Saturday night, so I would highly recommend reservations, which we had made about four weeks ahead of time. I cannot wait to return.

We ordered the 5 course tasting menu, it was amazing and suited to our preferences. We also had a beautiful bottle of Spanish wine recommended to us by our server Justin. Justin was attentive and explained everything to our satisfaction. The somalier told us all about the wine we had chosen and answered our questions.
Overall a very wonderful experience and we will definitely return.

Fabulous service and food...one of the best in Toronto!

the restaurant was very nice people very friendly we arrived early but were seated right away

We did the 10 course tasting menu, each dish was different so was able to try 20 dishes! Takes about 4 hours to do all 10 courses but was absolutely amazing! Great staff and food!

Great meal for my boyfriends birthday. We had the 7 course meal. We both got different courses and it was well plated and perfectly cooked. The candles came out for earth day and made the ambiance extra special. Definitely will return for another special occasion.

The 10 course tasting menu with wine pairings was outstanding. I have never paid as much for a gastronomical adventure, but nor have I ever sat at a dining table for 5 hours enjoying the festival of flavours - this is definitely an experience.

we really enjoyed the food. nut every dish was so heavy. with 5 course chef should do some balance. cheese selection was very good but it was too much on plate. chef should balance cheese with some lighter stuff or add more fruit. dessert was also very heavy. we did many 5 course meal in past and it was balance way better than George.
overall it was very good food. will go back but wont do 5 course.

Fantastic experience. Service was exceptional. Top Toronto restaurant. Thank you.

Always an amazing experience!

Tasting experience was superb. Service impeccable. This is definitely a special occasion experience. Highly recommend.

Great food and service just a little on expensive side for the amount of food.

A weekday lunch after a business meeting. Excellent service, one excellent meal, one not quite as good. Our section was full and the noise level was high but not unbearable. The facility is due for an update, eg uncomfortable chairs and banquettes but overall a pleasant experience.

Lovely experience!! Service was unbelievable and our dietary restrictions were accommodated. We had the 7 course meal and it was very satisfying! Wine list is exceptional!! Would highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you for such a memorable experience.

I would recommend the experience for someone I know.

Everything for my annual solo birthday dinner was perfect! I've been to George many times but tonight seemed exceptional; the Sommelier for the evening was bang on with all his wine pairing recommendations for the tasting menu, the service was seamless, and the food....oh, the food!! I've eaten at Michelin restaurants around the world but I can honestly say that last nights menu satisfied and excited my tastebuds like no other tasting menu I've experienced before. Thank you for a wonderful evening, George! I look forward to my next visit.

Enjoyed the 7 course tasting meal with wine pairings. Different dishes for each person made it a wonderful experience. Service was exceptional.

George is one of our favourite restaurants, but I must say we were disappointed with this experience. The service was rather inattentive and when the food came, it was cold. Not what you expect from this restaurant and when you are paying this much money for a meal.

We had a great time - our waiter was excellent, our sommelier Jonah was outstanding — very knowledgeable!

Everything was delicious. We did the 7 course tasting menu and unfortunately we couldn't finish it. Will have to try it again to make it to dessert. Definitely go hungry.

Very nice restaurant as always

If there was a food heaven....George restaurant would be a place to experience it.

Absolutely one of the BEST culinary experiences in Canada!

Great shabby-chic French Canadian decor, attentive but unobtrusive service, and an open kitchen where you can watch the magic being made...

The food was beautifully presented, and the flavors were subtle but bright, complex yet accessible, with imaginative and explosive
combinations!

I highly recommend the 7 course or 9 course tasting menu!!

Had the 5 course tasting menu, like the way they prepare the food, 2 people with different dishes

Very interesting dining experience especially when paired with wine tasting. A pleasant experience!
One of our party had a severe food allergy which was accommodated for with class. Our waiter was excellent at ensuring everything was safe

Great atmosphere! Nice place for a special occasion, amazing experience with a tasting menu!

Based on reputation, and price, we had high expectations for the George. And those lofty expectation were exceeded. One of the premier dining experiences of my life. We ordered the 7 course meal, and each of the three of us received different flights of small plates. Very well thought out and implemented creations these were. Each paired with a wine. The sommelier was knowledgable and engaging, providing good insight into each wine. With the 7 course meal, times 3, there is a lot of information to take in as this restaurant prides itself on being "foodies". Sometimes it was a little hard to hear the servers as they described the plate, which was too bad given that this experience is more than being about mere eating. Well worth it even given the high cost.

Spectacular food and service, lovely experience. Creative food and wine list.

Wonderful evening from the moment we arrived. Greeted by staff who happily took our coats and showed us to our table...no waiting. Staff were attentive yet respectful, I never felt them hovering but always within earshot to respond to our requests. Attentive to detail, making our guests with food allergies feel safe and not made to feel that their special requests were troublesome. And the food.......OH the food!! Like an evening of fine art appreciation. Every morsel was exciting and delicious! No disappointments...nothing negative to say. Not even a small suggestion on how to improve it. Absolutely wonderful from arrival to departure. Thank you!!

Delicious and beautifully served. Elegant but not too formal, loved it!

So far best restaurant we have experienced in Toronto. Great service, fantastic food (we are not easy customers :)), ambiance! Coming back with my friend next week.

I recently dined at George Restaurant and overall had a pleasant experience. The service was fantastic and the food was presented beautifully on each plate. My husband and I had the 10 course tasting menu and as I mentioned looked stunning but lacked flavour, however, the quality of the food was also impeccable. In terms of the environment of the restaurant we found that the tables were to close together as to allow wait staff to almost knock items over when passing through and the music to loud for conversation in which patrons had to speak loudly allowing for others to hear their conversations easily. It did not give a very intimate feeling.

All four of us had the tasting menus. The food was fantastic and it was fun to be pleasantly surprised by the content of each dish!!
