Excellent food, service and hometown feel for a restaurant, seems like a good DDD for guy F to visit! Highly recommended.

We have ate here tons of times over the past 15 + years. It is just in the past year or so George's lacks the consistent good flavor of food they use to have and consistent spot on customer service they always had. Today we ordered the mixed family broasted chicken and no issue when we were told there woukd be a wait because we expect that because it is broasted. We were told when our order would be ready and we arrived a little early. Our order should be ready around 6 pm and we arrived at 5:50 pm. We phoned at 5:50 pm stating we wanted to inform them we we were ready in space 3 but were early. She stated she was bagging it up as we speak. Eleven minutes went by and no order. My husband walked in. Our order was setting there. The lady said I am not sure what happened your order is ready it has been setting there. My husband said we have been setting in spot 3 for 11 minutes waiting since we phoned and was told then she was bagging our order. She had no response and he walked out. We tipped $5 on the $30 to go order, come on now! I asked my husband to count the chicken it was all there then we drove home. The chicken was dry. In the past their broasted chicken has ALWAYS been good. This tasted old not fresh but yet it was hot however, not seasoned. The fries were as if they were at the bottom of the bag. Several small pieces versus the larger fries. I have never been served them when I have ate in their restaurant before. I thought that was odd. The coleslaw appeared to be days old. I was not impressed due to the taste of the food and lack of getting me my order on time. I will be choosing someplace else to spend by hard earned money. Too many disappointments here. read more

I've been eating George's 20 years and that was absolutely the worst food I've ever ate. I hope it was just an awful day in the kitchen, but I will say ever since and Alicia sold the same. I don't know what they're cooking with there. The chicken strips were horrible. The masturbation grade were running a green beans had absolutely no flavor even with the bacon in them, there was no flavor. I don't know if I'll ever return after the meal. I just ate that's an embarrassment that restaurant and ashamed of name. I hope they can get it figured if not, they'll probably be out of business with the way that food was. I just wanted to be known it made me star cause I would not even star read more

I will say this place to me was just ok, my parents took me here and I had the country breakfast. The biscuits and gravy were not it for me. The gravy was very floury and did not have sausage in it as far as I could taste. The eggs were scrambled a little too hard and did not taste like they were salt or peppered. The home fries were good. The place was clean and had a very hometown vibe. The server was also very nice and timely. But the food was not the it for me. read more

With it being St. Patty's Day weekend, we needed to line our stomachs with some heavy food before the festivities begin. We opted to support a mom & pop family-style diner, and we instantly felt right at home. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, exactly what you'd hope for in a comforting, home-cooked meal experience I ordered the country fried steak and eggs, which arrived hot, flavorful, and perfectly crispy. It paired wonderfully with delicious home fried potatoes and fluffy, buttery biscuits--truly the perfect hearty breakfast We also enjoyed the Belgian waffle topped generously with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. It was an absolute delight, tasting just like the funnel cakes you get at the fair--crispy, sweet, and utterly delicious. The side order of biscuits and gravy was equally impressive, rich and satisfying, rounding off our meal beautifully Special thanks to Sherri at the front door, who warmly greeted every guest with a smile, making us feel like family from the moment we stepped through the door. She puts the "F" in Family. We'll definitely be returning again! read more

Well.. George's has been on my list of places to try for quite some time. Finally up that way for a basketball game so stopped in to give it a try. A bit like walking into the past when you enter the building. Reminds me of the diners you'd go and eat at in the late 70's early 80's with tables with chairs and booths. The folks working here welcome you in as soon as the door closes behind you. You get the feeing like everybody knows everybody in here as they are all just so friendly. I ordered a burger and the lovely Mrs ordered a grilled chicken sandwich. They were both tasty but my burger was the winner. This is exactly what I'm looking for in a burger. Soft bun, thick, juicy, seasoned well and cooked to perfection(med-rare). I added onions rings for an additional $3.50 which was to me a bit steep for the number of rings that were plated but they were good nonetheless. Would I go back? Sure, if I'm in the area. I'd prolly try the pancakes as that appeared to be a very popular choice by other patrons. Gotta support the local mom and pops. read more

We stopped here for dinner because of the great reviews, and I'm glad we did. The restaurant has a family dinner feel and is very casual. They served diner style food, you could get anything from breakfast food to classic comfort foods. We started with an order of fried mushrooms. The mushrooms had a crispy fried outside that made them so good, and it was served with marinara, which was a nice touch. I got the country fried chicken for my entree. The steak with cooked perfectly and was smothered in gravy. I got it with the steak fries and salad which was a great combination. read more

5 outa 5 - again. What a great place! I had the Greek salad with chicken. It's a big, fresh salad with tomatoes, pepperonis peppers, onions and I added juicy grilled chicken. Nice! My son had the Greek omelet and he loved it too. Always great, we love George's! read more

My latest and final visit to George's. Server was stomping frantically (marching about) without really getting anything done. She would start to take an order then turn away from the customer and yell across the dining room. She literally bounced plates and drink cups onto tables as she was flying by. Friday night all you can eat fish - we could see some tables were getting served seconds on fish, while our section was told they were out of fish at this time. I actually got some but not from our server. Our order was wrong and we were over billed for items we did not order. The owner offered me a dinner roll at check-out, and I informed him I wanted it a half hour ago with my dinner. DON;T WASTE YOUR TIME! read more

Great service!!! Super friendly! I love that you can pick your table as long as it has one placemat on the table. I was there for breakfast with friends and the service was great. The food was quick and good. It was a traditional menu and we all enjoyed our meals. I had the Belgium waffle and I ate every bit of it. I love that it is locally owned. I will return! read more

Gyro... They scorched the processed meat when they fried it. It's been 1-2 hours since I ate there and the bad taste still lingers. They should take the gyro off the menu if they don't want to prepare it right. read more

Went with the boyfriend on a Sunday about 1 PM (they closed at 3) and the place was packed, people waiting outside for a table. You put your name in and cell # and they call when you're ready to be seated. Once seated, the waitress came over and took our orders. Took almost 30 minutes to get the food to the table and the waitress forgot many things. Cheese on top of fried potatoes and gravy, Syrup and butter for the french toast and apple butter for the boyfriend's toast. The food was really really tasty!! I got the French Toast Feast, with 2 eggs, polish sausage, fried potatoes with gravy and cheese. He got the Greek omelette, which he said was freaking amazing. We will for sure be coming back to try the dinner options, though they close at 8 PM, so an early dinner read more

We decided to visit the restaurant based on a recipe I read. My husband loves biscuits and gravy. George's Family Restaurant did not disappoint! He said it was the best biscuits and gravy he has ever eaten! The biscuit was fresh and the gravy had perfect consistency and taste. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

We always love going here. Last Saturday they had the police and fire department serving customers to raise money to help the needy for the holidays, so we had extra incentive to go there in a Thursday night. They did an excellent job! They food is always good, the service and staff are great, and you can't beat the prices. The food is freshly cooked and the helping are large. We'd rather spend our money at a family owned, locally owned restaurant and this one is one of the best! Plus we love the fact that they give back to the community. read more

George's is a community staple. Great food and great service! I would always recommend if you're in the area and looking for good home cooking. Style reminds me of a diner. read more

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and a good breakfast more so. George's didn't disappoint!! It's just about perfect, and I'm sure the lunch and dinner options are too. We ate there twice on a recent visit to Dayton. Lured in by the "Pork Chops and Eggs" (you choice of Broasted or Grilled) and returned for an Scrambler with sausage and cheese a day or two later. Both delish! We also tried the pancakes and waffles, sides of crispy bacon. Our first visit was on a weekday, and we were seated right away (not too crowded) On Sunday we came back and the place was hopping! We were seated quickly. Looking forward to returning next trip to Dayton. read more

I don't live in Ohio anymore but I flew in to scatter my mom's ashes and visit my Dad. Since my Mother worked there in 1977, I thought it was appropriate to have lunch here after visiting the cemetery. The food is decent. My uncles ruebun was pretty pitiful and he had to ask for hot fresh fries. The layout is a disaster. They removed the coffee counter. The chefs window is still there but Rick and Dave from the 70's is long gone. Our server said the kitchen was overwhelmed and maybe why we waited 45 minutes for our food to arrive. Definitely a friendly staff tho. Overall it was nice to visit for Nostalgic purposes but like everything, the thrill is gone read more

Great little family place for great food and great service! Everything you would expect from a home-style diner. We had breakfast for dinner and the waffles were the best I've had. Eggs prepared perfectly over easy and the scrambled eggs were actually eggs and not egg beaters or powdered eggs like some places appear to serve. Sad it took us 12 years to find this place but we will definitely return! read more

George's is an awesome little local diner! Are they fancy? No. But they offer an amazing menu of feel good country type foods that certainly doesn't disappoint. Interestingly, they are a Greek restaurant with offerings such as gyros, and Greek plates but I've only been here for breakfast which is truly dynamite. Yesterday I had the Country fried steak with sausage gravy, eggs and potatoes. The steak was perfect. The breading was light, crispy and seasoned just right. The sausage gravy over the top was an excellent way to serve this item for breakfast. The portions were big and so good. As we left I grabbed a brownie at the front desk while paying and ate it later. Wow! I love George's and would definitely recommend this spot!! read more

Stopped in for breakfast and the staff was friendly and food portions were great. I hate when I order breakfast and I get enough food to feed a small army so I was very pleased with the size of my breakfast sandwich. My dad ordered the pork breakfast and while it was cooked very well he would have preferred a bit more seasoning to the meal. Myself, I did add some pepper to my sandwich but overall was a good meal and I would definitely come back to try the biscuits and gravy. read more

Great place to eat as long as you don't get Sherry for a waitress she will drive you crazy thanking you for coming in you order a dinner and she will bring the food out before your salad sorry to say it but she really needs to go we are regular customers and was always happy with the service until she came there very loud and aggravating to listen to her otherwise great place to dine read more

It's ironic that in Columbus, Ohio, our favorite restaurant/diner is George's Diner. Well, we just found our favorite restaurant in Dayton, Ohio, George's Family Restaurant.

The service here is unbelievably friendly and helpful, especially Alison! The establishment is spacious, very clean, and well lit. For a perfect meal, you cannot go wrong here! read more
