   Everything was great. But as the doors kept opening, a very cold breeze kept coming in. Food was great! Service was a little delayed. My coconut rice was a little undercooked. Good experience overall.

   My wife and I finally made it to The George for Sunday brunch. We've been meaning to get there for awhile and thankfully we did! The restaurant itself is very nice, with indoor and outdoor seating. Our server, Sydney, was the best, so nice and helpful. The food was fantastic, ahi tuna was spicy and delicious. My wife had the creme brulee French toast, it was like eating a plate full of dessert, incredible! I had the Mexican omelet, fantastic! The sides were equally impressive, potato wedges were seasoned and cooked perfectly as were the fried brussel sprouts. We're definitely looking forward to going back for dinner!

   This was a total miss . We will not be back. Ordered a drink that was $15 and tasted just like Cold Medicine. Couldn’t even drink it. Got the salmon and it and the sides were luck-warm at best and very blah. Didn’t even eat half of it. Waitress was clearly unhappy to be there and brought our check with our dessert. We had been there 45 minutes and the restaurant wasn’t even half full. Over $100 bucks, less than an hour and we wished we had gone to anywhere, even cook out, for our rare childless date night instead, it was that bad. Beautiful location on the water though.

   Had the specialty margarita for the night and it was not good at all. The menu seems to have paired down a lot from the last time I was there. The kids hamburgers look overdone. Not a fan

    Four of us went to the George on a busy New Year's Eve and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The service was very good, the food great and the ambience, very nice. This is our first time back under new ownership and we would definitely go again. Our wait person did a good job on a very busy night and other staff made sure that we were taken care. The menu was just large enough with many great choices. We each had different items and they were all very good.

    Reasonably good food, but the pineapple salsa on the black bass was too spicy and didn't work well with the coconut rice and curry sauce. Also, the fish was overcooked.

    First visit since new ownership and reopening was a very pleasant surprise. Other than a watered-down martini, first made up, then poured over ice rather than being remade, it was a perfect meal!

    Service was not friendly - hostesses or our waitress. We ordered 3 appetizers and every single one of them had no seasoning. The ahi tuna was nothing like how the menu described it to be and tasted terrible - gave both of us a stomach ache after trying a bite of it. Waitress was no where to be found during most of our time there. The menu needs to be updated on what you actually serve on each dish or at least have your waitstaff inform customers what they are ordering will not come as described on the menu.

    Food and service were great. Ambiance was not good. Plain white walls with modern art paintings. Room was very cold, but staff turned off overhead fans, which made it better. Expensive with small portions. Very disappointed.

    Noah was a great server. The Asian bbq wings were delicious. My beef short rib was room temperature and had to be returned and reheated. I don’t know if I’d return but it was okay overall.

    This was not a pleasant dining experience. The food was not well prepared and the entrees did not match the description. Only one of he four entrees ordered was moderately appealing. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. Even my daughter's grilled cheese was bad.

    We had high expectations for the George & sadly the experience did not meet what was expected. We dined inside because booth seating is more comfortable than iron bistro chairs for me. There were no candles in the votive container nor salt & pepper on the table. Maybe Covid dictated protocol? No bread was offered with our appetizer- Gator bites which were delicious! My breaded seafood entree had cod which met my standard but the crab cake & shrimp were disappointing. My husband’s penne with Cajun chicken was to his liking but he didn’t gush about it. The service was very pleasant & we never felt rushed. All in all from the reputation this establishment did have, they have some hurdles to recover from Covid mode. Will possibly give one more try as I didn’t try their Brussels which have been raved about.
