    Dining area was way too small. For the price, there is not enough space to have any sort of private conversation. Food and service however were great

    My friend and I came in for dinner, our server Carmen was outstanding and very knowledgeable about the menu items, answered a lot of our questions and helped us pick the best entrees and apps!! Food was 10/10 amazing as always! the lamb was our favorite entree by far! Can’t say enough great things about Geist and Carmen! ❤️

    Went out with some friends, and we all agreed to give Geist a try. We all loved the whipped ricotta appetizer and our main entrees of fish, chicken, and beef tenderloin. Would definitely recommend all three. Cocktails were good and not overpriced. Would definitely recommend and really loved the Xmas decorations.

    The food and drinks were delicious! The beef tenderloin was cooked to perfection. My only complaint, and this seems to happen anywhere I make a reservation, we got sat at a high top right next to the service station- we had to move the table some so they weren’t bumping into us- right under the speaker and could hardly hear each other. I feel like if we were sat anywhere else I would have given 5 stars. But everyone was very nice and had great service.
