   We were seated near a very loud couple and they host kindly moved us. The food was okay - we had salads which seemed to be missing the avocado on one which the waitress brought some over once requested. I felt that they are pricey for the food we ordered. The ambiance was nice especially in the bar area.

   Too noisy in the main dining room!! We could barely have a conversation. Tight spacing with tables. Food was good. Not sure if we'll return.

   Always good at the George. Maybe start the music a little later. Hard to hear yourself or staff when you are the bar side of the restaurant.

   Fantastic establishment. Exactly what we were looking for. Our server was so funny and made us feel like family. The food and drinks were delicious.

   Don't expect this restaurant to honor your reservation. This is the second time we've been burned by the George on a theater night, so we won't be going back. The first time this happened was 2 years ago - we arrived on schedule at 6 pm but were told by a hostess that the dining room was full and they didn't have a table for us. YET. We were invited to wait at the bar and "someone would come and get us." That never happened. Fortunately, we had ordered food at the bar - the bartender was great - and were able to finish up in time for our show. We didn't try the George again for a year. My son and his fiancee like The George, so we tried it again about a year later and had a normal experience. Then, last Saturday night, we arrived at 6 pm, this time with a party of 4, only to have the manager (owner?) tell us first that we weren't on the schedule. Then he scrolled around a bit on his screen and said that I had made the reservation for 5:15 p.m. and we had missed it. He "had to" cancel our reservation and now there were no tables available. Definitely made it sound as though it was all my fault, so sad, too bad. I was confused at first, because we always make reservations for 6 p.m. on theater night, I had made the reservation weeks ago, and I had received a confirmation text. Took me a few seconds to bring up my Open Table reservation for 6 p.m. on my phone and show it to him, to no avail. He backed off the you-messed-up attitude but said he was full and didn't have a table for us. I might have argued further, but had already had one lousy experience at the George and wasn't excited about hanging around for a second one. My son suggested we go to the pub across the street, so we left. There my son told us that the man at the George reception (owner/manager, we don't know) is often cranky, and that he's got such a reputation that people have made memes of him online. I'll share one here if I can. Amazing, isn't it? DO NOT recommend.
