Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Cabbagetown

Please note that the following has been mistakenly posted to a rather old booking of mine. I am posting it again to my most recent booking so that others may benefit from it. I am an occasional customer of George for several years. This is the restaurant that I would come alone, or bring relatives and friends for an exceptional fine-dining and tasting experience, and for an enjoyable as well as relaxed evening. The chef would accommodate our special requests and requirements, for example no raw seafood for me and no beef for my Buddhist friend. The main difference and advantage of George over other fine-dining/tasting restaurants was the provision of different dishes for the same table. For example, I had a table of three ordering the 10-course tasting menu. Each of us received a different dish for each course, meaning that the kitchen actually prepared 30 distinguished dishes for us. Every single dish was prepared carefully with the highest quality, intermixed with all kinds of ingredients and taste combinations. The fancy presentation for every dish was just like a piece of fine art. Each dish was given detailed narration when presented to us. What an eye-opening adventure! As for the servers, they were just like friends. They really cared about the customers and would even offer to arrange transportation at the end of dinner. They provided exceptional service and gracefully guided my senior relatives to the restroom. Thanks to Arnaldo, Chris, Kimberly, Robert, Ryan, etc., just to name a few. Although my guests were mostly non-alcoholic, there was one occasion that a guest tried the 10-course wine-pairing to his complete satisfaction. As for me, I always loved a glass of de-alcoholized red or white, which was not available in most other restaurants.

Food was good, wonderful service as well! We definitely plan on returning.

First time visiting, I would definitely visit again. Service was impeccable, from the server checking up on us and the speed of the food and drinks being brought to us, once the order had been placed. Overall such a Great experience . Highly recommended. 👍
