   The food was excellent and the mimosas were bottomless... what's not to like? :-) I loved the CG Benedict - two poached eggs on cheesy biscuits with thick, candied bacon. I usually don't like thick slab bacon, but this was outstanding! I also highly recommend the donuts. *swoon* Although the dining room was pretty full, it wasn't noisy and the tables were far enough apart to allow for conversation without broadcasting to everyone around you. The staff were helpful and friendly which made it a relaxed and fun event. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will definitely be back. It was a great way to start the new year!

   We are practically regulars at CG. My son likes to go there when he's in town so we went last night. He and I ordered chicken parmesan and for some reason, it was not up to its usual standard. Hopefully, it was just a fluke and things will get back to better!

   Not my first visit, and will certainly not be my last visit. Excellent food and service, well crafted martini, complimentary parking. My blackened fish tacos were great!

   The tomato bisque is not good. Too salty and an odd taste.

   We love Chef Geoff’s. Plenty for vegetarians and meat eaters alike. Steak was wonderful. Salmon was excellent (even the teenager loves it.) The vegetarian loves the mushroom ravioli. Excellent cocktails and cocktails. Services always attentive and warm. Been coming since I was a grad student at AU. Now I bring my family (including my 18YO!) So happy to share Chef Geoff’s with my family.

   Christmas Eve dinner- seated in a cold back room. Nothing looks like the online pictures. Bathrooms were dirty. Service was odd and lethargic. The server was leaning over us to place dishes so that her arms and long hair were all over the table. She placed plates on top of other plates that were already on the table when serving, and handed us glasses by the top. Plates were cleared at dessert before we were finished so that no one could serve themselves the remaining apple cider donut. Food was fine but not great, and despite the celiac in our party ordering gluten free off the menu and communicating this clearly with the server, they became ill after the dinner.

   The chili crunch tofu bowl was outstanding! It was just spicy enough, and the combination of the broccoli, edamame, onions, peppers and tofu was perfect. I'm hoping it stays on the menu for future visits!

    Always a pleasure to dine at Chef Geoff’s . Consistently very good all around. We were all happy with Greek salads, scallops, beef tenderloin, and pasta. So nice to have this as our go to neighborhood restaurant.
