George's is one of my fav breakfast food spots. The staff are a big reason, always awesome, always friendly, and remember me. Food is a solid for breakfast, never had a miss more than forgetting the jelly, and the restaurant is comfy enough to allow family meals here in relative peace. Always highly recommended read more

I've had personal and business meetings here and they're always been so friendly if I was just passing through the area and needed water.

This place has gone downhill! The waitresses are very nice, the food is not quality, and the quantity didn't make up for the taste. No ambiance, just a very simple place to get something.. no party's here.. They expect you to wait for food too long, not the waitresses fault.. I recommend going somewhere else unless you know someone there... read more

I love this place! A good solid breakfast. The service staff are like family and remember you from previous visits! The omelets are so good and can be customized . Definitely a regular spot! read more

Went in for what would have been my mothers 76th birthday. The server is one of the reasons we keep coming back. She is always smiling and see easy to talk too. Saturdays are the best day because of their homemade Veggies Soup. The best in Lorain County. This restaurant reminds me of a diner from my childhood. read more

Service sucked. Food was gross. Hard veal, hard roast beef. Will not be back. If the waitress knew you, you got good service otherwise forget even being asked if it was ok. Had to ask for a lunch menu, which seemed to piss off the waitress as she rudely basically threw the menu toward me. Two people but she only gave us one menu to look at. Waited over 10 minutes to get the check as she never came back to check on us and we were done for a while. Would not recommend at all. read more

Took a little road trip for breakfast and it wasn't a disappointment. George's will definitely not be on my "one and done" list. The only issues I had personally was the leftover food on the menu and service was a bit slow, it seemed they were a bit understaffed for a Sunday morning. read more

If you're looking to have a good, hearty breakfast, then this is the place for you. Nothing fancy, just freshly made and tasty food. Eggs, omelets, pancakes, French toast- they have all of the basic breakfast items. Service was very friendly, and fast! You can get in and out in 45 minutes if you do wish. Will definitely return if I'm ever in the area again! read more

Food is great service is great and the coffee keeps coming the waitresses are very friendly and aren't afraid to hold a conversation with you I enjoy coming here for breakfast it's my regular breakfast stop atmosphere is great you come. In and your greeted and waited on right away read more

Someone else said, "It doesn't look like much" and they are right. It's an older looking place, the decor is late 70s early 80s but this is a place to come get some food, you aren't here to propose to your girlfriend. What counts is the service and how things taste. Part of the appeal is that it looks like an old style restaurant and the servers have that same approach. They are all nice people and it only took two visits before the server knew what my order was. That's a throwback if ever there was one. Today I had a veggie omelet with spinach added and tell me this isn't a pretty omelet? Not bad for the price and again, your drink never seems to get 1/4 empty without a refill. read more

My wife and I had a meal at this restaurant several months ago. She had a breakfast entree and it was fine and looked good. I made the mistake of ordering a hot roast pork sandwich, which is a regional staple. It was slop. Absolutely lousy. There wasn't much meat and it looked old and had a slightly rancid taste. The gravy was like a lukewarm thick pudding and the mashed potatoes were thick and clumpy instant. I can't imagine an American restaurant owner foisting something this miserable on a customer. I'd be ashamed to sell something like that. I should have sent it back and I will NEVER accept slop like that again anywhere. I'm 71 and have and do eat in a lot of restaurants. One of the worst meals I EVER remember being served. read more

Nice people and prices not bad. I'm from out of state and I will be back! I've even told a few friends about this place.

This place has been a family favorite for years. With the pandemic we been pretty much stuck in the house. My mom, sister, and I went for our second shots and decided that we were going to treat our self to some good home style cooking. Georges is what some may call a greasy spoon. You know what you get at a greasy spoon right? Some of the best damn food on the planet and George's will not disappoint you. Even though they were understaffed that day the wait staff did all they could to be attentive to all the customers. Our waitress was moving so fast that she nearly ran into herself going into the kitchen area. They have some covid precautions. Plexiglass between the booths to alleviate the spread of germs. It is still self seat and yes they wipe the tables and chairs prior to the next customer coming in . It was still morning so I was going to have a great breakfast. What ever reason I did not have dinner the night before so I was really hungry. My order was Country fried steak, with potatoes, and scrambled eggs. I find it hard to find a good country fried steak but this was very good. It was well seasoned and tender. My mom got steak and eggs. My sister order corn beef hash and over easy eggs. I don't know about you but that runny yolk egg over the hashbrowns were phenomenal. Yes, I ate off her plate. Because she is my big sister and I can. The waitress needs a review of her own. She was awesome. Sorry I do not remember her name. But she was great. I can tell because mom is old skool and she loved the vibe and personality she was giving off. I hope that her supervisor knows how great of a person they have. This is definitely a place you and the family go to grab a great meal. My next motorcycle ride I am bringing the group there. The waitress would be able to handle a bunch of salty old dogs. read more

Exactly what we were looking for in a place for breakfast. A full parking lot was the first good sign. I always prefer a local place over a chain. Old school decor with old school prices, nothing fancy. Traditional breakfast items (eggs, omlettes with many filling options, pancakes, oatmeal). Friendly service. I had the bowl of oatmeal and asked for fresh fruit and they added fresh blueberries. Others at the table had omlettes with toast. Tasty and filling! read more

One of the most ridiculous displays of incompetence I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing. From the kitchen staff, who took three times long to prepare my food as would be normal, to the waitress, who brought my meal out in shifts, one plate, getting cold, waiting for the other portion of my meal to show up. Don't even get me started on the idiot behind the cash register who I watched through that whole ordeal screwup one order after the other in complete and utter confusion. At only 25% capacity, there was a line of people waiting to cash out, only to have this boob, trying to figure out each and every ticket. I will never eat here again! read more

Great food and prices service is excellent always friendly and your coffee cup is always full.

George's is a great spot for breakfast ! The food is delicious, freshly made, and consistent. The staff is always attentive and courteous. read more

I'm gonna give this place 5 stars mannn the food quality is great ! I had the Spanish omelette with jalapeño peppers and onion green peppers, and tomato excellent and the portions nice. The inside is kind of dated but they make up for it in food . I think the menu is way too large for a restaurant this size it's like 4 pages long. But the big but everything we ordered was great according to my guests I was with. A must stop if your in the Lorain Elyria area! read more

Old school family restaurant on the border of Lorain and Elyria. Came here with a party of 7 on a Saturday at 9:30. Had reservations so we were seated immediately. Our server greeted us promptly and she was very kind and sweet. You can tell that this restaurant has workers who care. I got a spinach omelette and a side of sausage links. The omelette was great and cooked perfectly. The sausage links had a weird aftertaste to them that I can't explain. My mom ordered a breakfast sandwich on a croissant with no cheese but unfortunately they added cheese so it had to be remade. Also my daughter asked for a hot tea but it never came out; but the waitress took my daughter's orange juice off the check to make up for it. However, the "orange juice" is really Sunny D which I find disgusting personally. Overall the food was good and not a bad price ($64 for 7 people). The service, as in the actually waitress, was awesome even though a couple things went wrong. I'd definitely come back next time I'm in town. read more

I have been going here since 1986. Breakfast is my go to but the dinner menu is nice too. The liver and onions are a favorite because they don't over cook it. The people who own the restaurant are really nice and personable read more

Jackie, our server, was amazing! She might be the best server we have ever had... attentive, super sweet, funny, and just plain nice. She even called us by our names... The food was great too. I had the bacon and cheese omelet and the bacon was cooked perfectly before being tossed in the omelet, the home fries were more like mashed browns but wonderfully crispy. We split an order of biscuits and gravy... they were definitely homemade... and topped it off with a pancake. Great find in Cleveland! read more

Gosh, I love this place. I love, love, love, love, love it. I order the same thing every time and with one exception (ordering breakfast at lunch time isn't the smartest thing) it has been amazing. I'm very particular about my eggs and yet they come out perfectly over-medium with a runny yolk and fully cooked whites. The hash browns are so yummy--so yummy! And the toast, coffee and water is good too. The thing I love the most? It's not salty! Lots of breakfast places use too much salt and this place uses the perfect amount. I love this place. It's the only resaurant I'll really miss when I move out of Lorain! read more

Breakfast was yummy and priced right. The omelet was made just right. The pancakes were very good also

George's restaurant has great "homestyle" cooking. Now, THAT'S a cheeseburger! Comfortable ambiance and excellent attention from our waitress, Lisa. Old fashioned customer service.... That's George's! Although I did enjoy corned beef wrap at George's, I preferred Blue Sky's, the wrap had a slight toast, and a distinct, tasty cheese. read more

Jackie and Lisa are the best waitresses a guy could ask for! The food is always top notch. Always a friendly atmosphere.

3+ stars for breakfast! Perfect short-order diner for a quick quality breakfast! Quick service... omelettes and eggs are great! Reasonable prices. We will come back again! The decor is outdated and the bathrooms BADLY need rennovating!!! read more

Three for friendly and extremely quick service. Our waitress had worked there for 18 years and was worth visiting just to see her hairdo. Ma and pop restaurant full of locals cons: The orange juice is Sunny Delight (we stuck with water), pros: the breakfast sandwiches are pretty good. Not a bad stop if your on the road! My kids wanted me to say that "There's a really nice lady who gives tons of lollypops.We ended up leaving with about 15(not bad!) Hope you like it!!!" read more

Puked up spaghetti in the bathroom before I got out the door. I think the meat. was spoiled.

We eat here on lazy Sunday mornings. The service is great and it just feels like home. They don't mind our crazy kids or the mess we leave behind. The food is cheap and omg the portions are huge. If you get the special which is usually something like fried pork chops, homemade beef tips with noodles, or chicken paprikas, it comes with soup a salad and a side all for around $7 bucks a plate. It's not fine dining by any means but it's some really good down home cooking! read more

Love this place. A wonderful spot for good food with good friends. You'll always see families and old friends shooting the breeze here. Affordable and delicious. I've never been disappointed with the quality of the food or the service. Try the omelettes or the country fried steak read more

We came here because it's close by and we wanted to try a new place. I was happy with our experience here. We had service in no time and the food didn't take long to come out. Our waitress was also pleasant. Very happy and can't wait to go again! read more

Ok.... My husband decided to take me somewhere new, and this is where we ended up! The place was packed, and it's seat yourself. I honestly thought it was going to be a super long wait. Within one minute of sitting we had coffee and waters in front of us. Our server Jessica was extremely nice and took great care of us and our small rowdy children! The food came out within 10 minutes of ordering. The price here is great, and worth the drive. Six bucks got toast eggs hashbrowns and sausage. I think I found my new favorite breakfast spot! read more

Traveling in the area and stopped to try it. The waitress must have been having a bad day, a lot of swearing and crying loud enough to hear. My husband liked his food. I had never had brown gravy on a turkey sandwich but I was hungry. When we got to our destination that night my husband was in the bathroom puking and having diarrhea and this was the only thing we had to eat all day. read more

This is a good spot for breakfast and the wait staff is very friendly. I've had good lunches, too. Dinner isn't bad, but it's the breakfast that draws me here every time! read more

We come here everytime we're in Ohio. Good food, good chef and service. Good coffee and large portions for your money, a win, win!

This is Javier Ramos.....I am walking to a Citibank atm where I can withdrawal cash and then I will walk up there to pay you....please give me about an hour to get this done....call me at 440-258-3122 if this is going to be a problem...I really don't need to go to jail for trying to eat a meal. read more

I loved eating at George's. Generous portions,friendly waitresses . Food was very good. I would definitely eat there again. We ate there for lunch, my husband ordered breakfast. read more

I used to love this place. Yesterday I went for breakfast and ordered a western omelet. It had no cheese and skimpy on the rest. I went back that evening for a perch dinner. The slaw was rancid the fish was way over cooked and the tartar sauce tasted like I don't what. However, the service was very good as usual. read more

We decided to try a mom and pop restaurant for breakfast this morning but ended up walking out before we ordered our food. Restaurant was filthy. Bathroom was disgusting complete with cobwebs. Waitress had no personality. Coffee was horrible, and the prices were high. Decided not to order after following the flight of a huge fruit fly to a wall where several were lit. If they were in the dining room, what did the kitchen look like? Very disappointed! Left and went somewhere else! Do not recommend this place! read more
