I really love this place. It has a cool vibe – it’s a great place to go unwind in an upscale environment after work, for drinks with girlfriends or on a date. It has a loungey feel to it.
I prefer it for appetizers and beverages rather than a full meal, but the food I’ve eaten here is quite good. The drink recipes they have are amazing! The prices are quite high, however, which is why I’ve given it a value rating of only 3.Food 4

On an evening out, you know you might run into some bad behaviour, but I have to say I didn’t expect to encounter it from the staff at George. I’ve always enjoyed going there — it’s a nice room and the bartenders make some mighty fine cocktails. But last night we encountered their doorman and he was so rude, I can’t imagine a circumstance in which I’ll go back to George (short of him no longer being there). He was the classic case of petty authority, keeping us waiting in the line even though a good number of people had left the bar (as a side note, there were a lot of people going in and turning right around and walking out). Then when my friend joked about how most bars would like to have two women go in, he actually told her that he was married (huh?) and then let three people behind us in! Wow. Needless to say, we left.
Come on George! Get it together. As anyone knows, your doorman/bouncer gives people their first impression of a place and you’re doing yourself a disservice having that kind of staff representing you.Food 1
