After some issues with reservation- table too small for 7 and not seated in garden room as requested, had a fabulous dinner with great service. Noah was very welcoming and great with recommendations. Can not praise the food enough! Everything was outstanding! Highly recommend the whipped ricotta appetizer, filet, spring risotto, asparagus, truffle fries, shrimp linguine. Highly recommended!!!

We had a great experience at Geist celebrating our 35th anniversary! Noah was our waiter and was attentive throughout the evening. It was a warm quiet Sunday evening so most of the diners were outside enjoying the humid evening so indoors was quite peaceful (and cool!). We dined on the spring mix salad and delicious crispy pork bellies, followed by the perfectly cooked steak with a surprise from the kitchen of the best asparagus we've ever eaten! Then Noah had his own surprise for us, an anniversary dessert of their delightful tiramisu complete with a candle to make it even more fun! Loved it all and will be back on our next visit to Germantown in Nashville! Highly recommend!!

I will rave and rave about Geist. For of all, every single staff member was friendly. Every single one! My first time presenting to Geist, ordered the beef filet with green beans and mashed potatoes and it was delicious! Perfectly cooked, seasoned just right, and beautifully plated. My server Deanthony was incredible, very attentive.

Amazing ambiance and amazing service! I went to celebrate my Birthday with my sister & a friend and the champagne garden was full which I was super disappointed so our server made it up to me with free shots, a sparkler and a free dessert ! The food was so good and everything was perfect ! They really made my Birthday special 💝🎂🥂
