Daniel George Restaurant

My daughter and I initially walked past this restaurant because it was lunchtime and it looked very upscale and we were just out for a casual lunch. The restaurant looked so appealing on a rainy Monday and we decided to try it and are glad we did. We had exceptional service and the food was wonderful. Our water glasses were quickly filled, there was a nice wine list, the food came out at just the right time and the waitstaff was highly professional.

I have been a few times and they consistently deliver. Our party had the grouper special, beef tenderloin, pasta, and crab claws. All were excellent. We did half and half on the crab claws (sauteed and fried). If I had it to do over, I would do all sauteed. Not that the fried are bad, but the sauteed were superior.

I’m shocked at how my wife and I were treated by the assistant manager. Our server was excellent and shouldn’t have to go through the headache of colleagues not supporting those that are the face of their operation. Our food was cold, so naturally we requested it to be fixed. The disrespect just kept coming in waves no matter how calm and polite we were about the situation. Being New Year’s Eve we just wanted a smooth night, but that was made impossible. Once our food was fixed properly it was taken out of our hands. Words alone in a review can’t paint how disrespectful this restaurant is. Do not go here, ever. There’s so much better!

(4.5 stars) I really was thinking about a lower rating but this place really grew on us. The interior is not really inspiring and somewhat antiseptic. We were seated in a side room with several large parties and the noise level was high. As soon as Lacy, or server, greeted us the night really improved. Our cocktails were tasty and a good way to start a meal. The fried oysters were crunchy and delicious, albeit on the small side. We both had grouper (fish of the day) and it was delicious and perfectly prepared. The filet cut was smallish for a $42 price and the polenta and veggies were a great accompaniment. Our desserts were tasty but I’d really suggest a larger “scoop” of ice cream for the apple empanada and the lava cake. It was literally a melon ball scooper size. They are in no hurry to turn tables so feel free to relax and enjoy. Other severs pitch in as well as the hostess on water duty. The service made our evening as well as the other friendly regulars.

All very nice. Comfortable seating and atmosphere. Recently updated decor. Variety of starters, salads and entrees. We enjoyed the seared Ahi sppetizer and tomato/ goat cheese salad. Fried oysters were delicious. A beef nice filet, cooked perfectly as was my rack of lamb and wilted spinach. Attentive, friendly service. Definately recommend and we plan to return.

I can't personally speak for the food, but my son and his date said it was amazing. I can speak for the service. I called in ahead of my son getting there and gave them a credit card number to cover the dinner as a surprise for them. I gave the wrong expiration date which caused my card to be declined, and I didn't hear my phone ring when they called me about it. They let my son leave with the ticket open until I called back because they knew I really wanted to pay for their dinner. That is above and beyond anything I could have ever expected or asked for.
