    Overall Geist met expectations, but did not exceed. Service was slow, salmon was overcooked, but again overall it was good. Cool place.

    Steven was our server, he was very kind! The decor is gorgeous, will have to dine again & hope to get a spot in the champagne garden, caught a peek of it & it looked stunning! We were off in a side room with lots of natural lighting coming through. Great place to spend Easter!

    Unmatched ambiance, great service, and unique dishes for sure! Pricing was right in line with expectations, but the overall taste wasn’t to our personal preference. The chicken wasn’t really seasoned, and a lot of our dishes (bacon, grits, etc.) felt like they needed salt/seasoning from the kitchen. Good meal, great atmosphere, just not our personal favorite in the taste department.
