We went for brunch. The steak and eggs, churro waffles with chicken, the French toast, and the pineapple coconut drinks are all family faves. We also get the fresh guacamole, street corn, and salsa with warm chips every time. Great food and service (thanks Alejandro!)

Had a lovely experience at The George for a girls night out. I started with the Pink Fetch cocktail which was light and not overpowering. We ordered the tuna wonton nachos. The wonton’s were crisp and delicious. The tuna was well seasoned and nicely prepared. I could have eaten the whole plate. We also ordered pierogies which were also delicious. As a main, we split a steak, creamed spinach and potatoes. We topped it off with an apple tart and banana pudding. We all enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Service was good as well. Will def be back
