We were walking all over the city and ended up on 9th Avenue. Hungry as usual we needed a place to eat light yet have a glass of wine. There appeared Georgio's Country Grill. I had the Cobb Salad and my friend had the grilled pork chops. We were both delighted with our meals, the service and the price. Have gone there many times since and it is consistent.

This place is basically a diner with some funky menu items, which I was reluctant to try. For the type of place it is, you expect that the one thing they do well would be a burger, and I was very disappointed. The meat was chewy and tough and had a couple of hard bits in there. The rest of my party had no complaints with their wraps.

What a lovely surprise! From the outside it doesn't look like anything special, but when you walk in, it's sort of like a little local bistro. They have pellegrino and wine bottles on the tables, and little candles, it was so cute! Definitely didn't look anything like a diner at all! The service was basically excellent. The servers were very nice, friendly, polite, always refilled water, checked to see how the food was, etc. The only complaint is that when we asked for the bill, they came over with the desert tray to ask if we wanted desert. Not a big deal, but I was STUFFED and ready to walk after such a HUGE meal! The food was excellent. I got the beef spaghetti (I think it's called something else on the menu). What a huge serving, and VERY VERY tasty. In fact, I want to order it now! They also give you olives and bread as free appetizers. The value is definitely a 5. Great little local spot! Will come and eat here again!

I really wanted to like this place. It looks so cute and as a neighborhood local, I want to support local businesses. Today I ordered delivery - the fried chicken, cheesecake, and grilled chicken & avocado salad. The salad was awesome - fresh greens, juicy warm chicken, perfect avocado. The cheesecake was good. The fried chicken though was comprised of very small pieces, overcooked. Sides were overcooked greenbeans covered in oil and roasted, candied sweet potatoes that were too sweet. I don't know... For $15 a plate, I expected the quality to be a little better. Good news is that service was prompt and the delivery guy was really nice. I don't know - I wouldn't recommend this place unless you got the salads. I'll have to try a different entree next time - maybe I'll change my mind.

I have no idea why people try to bring this place down but its amazing. I love eating here I send people here all the time and they never complain. When I order it comes fast and just how I want it...Great place to eat or order from!

Georgio's Country Grill used to be a safe spot for a traditional American brunch because of its variety of omelets and shakes and low key atmosphere. Now, the decor is showing wear and tear and so is the service not to mention the food. The manager now paces the floor and hovers over tables to rush paying customers from the tables the moment they finish their entrées. He doesn't even give people time to order an after meal coffee or tea. When I explained that I had noticed his behavior on several occasions and that it made people feel unwelcome, his response was that he had $16k/month rent to pay and that he had been nice to me over the years. He then added that he couldn't help it if I felt that way. Pardon me, but I didn't realize that it was a burden to be nice to paying customers who are also nice to you.

I ordered Zorba omelet which was practically inedible - not cooked, almost liquid with too many huge chunks of scallions. Plus they overcharged me on a substitution. never again will I order from that place!
