Editorial Review for Giorgio's – by Rachel Bellacera
In Short
Small tables, rich wood floors, golden brocade and leather banquettes are mixed with vintage posters, striking a balance between a classy, timeless ambience and contemporary style. The simple, elegant ambience draws a serious crowd of epicureans and upscale couples. Entrees include lamb with arugula, roasted cardoncello mushrooms and young fennel, seared to highlight the freshness of the meat. Closers include the ever-changing menu of homemade sorbets in refreshing flavors like cantaloupe.

We had our first Giorgio's experience a couple months ago and it was incredible. I would highly recommend this both for the quality, delicious Italian food and the service and ambiance. The staff is friendly and very attentive without being overbearing or hovering: a tough balance to pull off as attentive as they were. The setting is beautiful and much care has gone into making it elegant while approachable and very comfortable. The food was prepared perfectly from the appetizers to the salads and entrees to desserts. We would go again anytime and highly recommend it.
Pros: service, ambience, food
Cons: Pearl parking depending when you go

I just had such a lovely experience at Giorgio's for lunch that I had to sign up for CitySearch to write a review! I was a tad leery to go, since I had seen some reviews that weren't positive at all...but decided to go anyways based on a friend's recommendation. And I'm glad I did! I loved the daily menu based on season and local organic foods. I decided on skate wing over risotto and peas...something I have never ordered before, but took the waiters advice based on his thorough knowledge of food preparation and willingness to discuss our food options based my specific likes. The food was AMAZING - it was an explosion of tastes that left me wanting more, despite my full belly. Go to Giorgio's if you're looking for an upscale dining experience, with a unique menu, delicious food and very knowledgeable and friendly service!!!!
Pros: FOOD!!!
