    We have been wanting to dine at George's for several months and finally made it yesterday. What a wonderful dining experience! Delicious Italian food! Great service! Easy parking! No waiting in line! We ordered the appetizer Arancinis, which were two large size meatballs filled with Filet Mignon pieces and risotto and a delicious marinara sauce. Very good! Then our Lobster Ravioli with the most delicious creamy lobster sauce arrived. The Lobster pieces were large and tasty, not mini pieces that you cannot taste or see. I can't say enough good things about it. Yummy would be one thing to say tho. After that, the entree, Osso Busco with Risotto was brought to our table. The piece de resistance! Excellent! Luckily, we were able to split our meals onto our own plates and had food left over for home. We had just enough room in our stomachs to split a Tiramisu, which was out of this world good. We wish to commend LORENA, our very sweet and attentive server for doing an excellent job of making our experience a welcome one and very pleasing! We will definitely be returning to our new favorite Italian restaurant very soon!

    What an experience! The entire staff was first-class. "Santi" was by far the best waiter in any restaurant we have ever visited. Homemade meals that we would have easily paid 2X or more for. Our entrées were $19 and $23. These should have been $35-$40 dishes. Cappuccino was definitely a presentation that we've never seen before, and obviously tasted amazing. A truly family owned/operated restaurant - the passion for their work was felt. A must visit when in Miami beach!

    Beautiful romantic place for a couple or just evening drinks with friends. Stylish, sophisticated. Outside seating with classy white cloth and rich olive oil. Very friendly staff. We came just for Coffe and ended up having appetizers that was so generous portion we didn’t expect. Will definitely come back for a nice dinner.

    We had reservations for a birthday dinner and we're not disappointed. The service was great and the food was really good. Classy atmosphere with client focused staff. Good wine and drinks selection as well as little details like the fresh bread basket and bruschetta plate make for a special evening. Definitely recommended if you are in the Miami North Beach area.

    Great Miami Beach experience. Could not have been happier with the service and with the food. All three of our meals were excellent. Highly recommend the specials. Lamb ravioli with Rosemary was incredible. Fettuccine with chicken how to creaminess I have not had before. They're Tuesday special of 50% off wine by the bottle is not so bad either!

    This place is like a retreat! Enter in this restaurant and let your instant energy upgrade begin. I entered and requested black coffee please I need to wake and come alive I said to my handsome server with the black trimmed glasses who reminded me of Ricky my server from the night before at Cafe Bernie’s. He delivered assisted by lovely Pilar and the shy beautiful other young lady. This place lifts your mood and takes you away to far away places “ in my mind”😂

    There was a bit of a waiting time despite us having a reservation. However, they really turned our perception in a positive way. They offered us courtesy appetizers and desert as an apology for the long wait and were very good hosts. Food was great and the quality price ratio is on point.

    Delicious, real Italian restaurant (white table cloth...), Prices very reasonable, any time (no need to aim for happy hour, except for drinks I guess). No wonder it is often full, reservation advisable.

    Landed here by chance. The spinach gnocchi is out of this world, I order it with carbonara. My wife had the black linguini with clams and it was perfect al dente. Toda our awesome server is super professional and friendly. She knows her specials inside out !

    Did an extensive search of Miami Beach for an Italian restaurant and chose George's for its reviews and extensive menu. It was worth it! The food, service, and atmosphere were great! I highly recommend the Arancinis (risotto balls w/ filet mignon) as an appetizer. For dinner we did the veal piccata and grilled salmon. Both were excellent! However, pro tip - order the salmon no more than medium rare. I ordered it medium and the center was juicy and pink but the outside was a bit dry.

    I had lunch here yesterday for my birthday. The place is really nice. Compared to other italian restaurants this one is much cheaper and the food is just exquisite. I recommend going on Tuesday to enjoy their half price bottle of wine. Totally recommended! Enjoy!

  • 2/5 Teresa R. 11 months ago on Google
    I've been to this restaurant for many years. However this last visit left me. To start with, they have the best in house baked bread served warm, crusty and delicious. What we received was a plain roll that tasted like it came from Costco. The food lacked presentation and flavor. The service was good but not as excellent as before. Either this place was sold, changed hands or has another chef/manager. Will not return. Sad. One of the best local restaurants, gone :(

  • 5/5 Angel M. 11 months ago on Google
    This was the first time coming here the food was superb, excellent al dente pasta the name of this dish is called Spaghetti Aglio E Olio,u can have it as is or add chicken or shrimp. I highly recommend checking them out and the service was pleasant and direct thank you 🤗. Grazi. P.s the spinach is bomb ask them about cooked/sautéed spinach.

    The lasagna was fantastic. They sang happy birthday . Great food and ambience. It took quite awhile to get our check and leave. Everything else was delightful. We sat at the bar.

    Always a go to place. All of the staff is attentive and profesional and polite. The head bartender Martin makes the time at the restaurant relaxing and fun. Recommend!!

    Food was beyond exceptional. My friend is a big osobucco fan, and he said it was the best he ever had. I will share the same sentiment. Nick and everyone were also very nice and helpful with the suggestions. Out of all the restaurants we tried in the area, this place was the best.

  • 5/5 Cristina H. 9 months ago on Google
    I LOVED everything about this restaurant. Food was a 10/10, service was a 10/10, and the atmosphere was also a 10/10... I left with the feeling that I can't wait to come back! I ordered the special appetizer, salmon tartar. My entree was also the special parpadale with small bites of filet mignon in a brandy cream sauce. My husband ordered the branzino....amazing. My daughter got the spaghetti, and she loved her dish as well. For desert, we got the Tiramisu and also was so delicious! For wine, we ordered the blend of malbec/cabernet... also super delicious. I can't say a negative thing. Intimate vibe , just wonderful. I will definitely be going back! Santi was our waiter...he was wonderful. George's is great for a family dinner, to celebrate a birthday , to entertain clients....it's wonderful!

    Tried out the pear salmon with veggie, a chicken pasta with pink vodka sauce, spinach spaghetti with veggies, and a pear pasta. All items were phenomenal! A bit pricey but definitely worth the money for the quality and quantity that you get. Will eat here again soon!

    Loved all the delicious dishes I got to sample. The lobster ravioli and the lasagna were amazing! The apps and presentations were also very nice. The waiters were attentive and working hard to serve our big group with kindness.
