Great service , Carmen went out of her way to accommodate us and she was fantastic concerning menu questions and service .... You should ask for her :) ALL 7 of us loved our meal, we're 2 states away but would drive back to MN to eat HERE!! read more

I probably had one of the best dining experiences in MN, if not then top 3 in my life. Small city restaurant packed with love, overwhelming amount of food, perfect service, owner presence, just like you stepped into your uncle's place. It may not look like much and just another restaurant when you drive by, but this is a business done right!! Thank you! read more

Found my self in New Ulm for 3 days for work, decided to give George's a try on our last evening there. Wednesday evening, early we walk in at 6:15. The hostess asked if we had a reservation, I kind of laughed to my self, the place was busy about 1/3 full, I said no but we would happily sit at the bar. We ordered a couple Whiskies, the pour was generous, I'm thinking well this is starting well. Within 30 minutes the place was packed, every table taken and people waiting for room at the bar! I wasn't starving so I chose the smallest steak on the menu, the filet. Absolutely perfect in every way, medium to medium rare, perfectly seasoned. My buddy ordered the strip with added shrimp, again all wonderfully prepared. The staff, all pleasant and engaging. George was behind the bar greeting the regulars, very well run establishment. MAKE RESERVATIONS, you will be glad you did. read more

If you are staying in New Ullm or passing through... THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE!!! George is incredible! We sat at the bar and he George himself tended to our needs non stop! The place was absolutely packed! Food was incredible! Service was on par! We sat right by the kitchen and you could tell they had a high standard of quality even though such a small town place! I'm not a local, but this will be my new spot when I'm in the area! read more

Found them via a Yelp search while visiting Schell's. Was seated at the bar by the owner himself. Very nice guy who makes good recommendations! Had a salad, king cut prime rib and green beans (skipped the potato). It was all excellent! If you're a bourbon fan their selection is first-rate, including many allocated bottles. Totally worth a visit!!! read more

What a fun find! My husband and I were in town for work and landed on George's. We met the owner, George who was very personable, his wait staff and servers were just as fantastic. All their dressings were made from scratch and you can tell, especially for someone like me who doesn't like bottled dressing! The steak bites were flavorful and juicy, my husband and I split a chicken/rib combo and even brought some ribs home. Everything was tender, flavorful, and hot. What a charming little trip to the past with the old charm of hospitality, an art that is fading but not at George's! read more

We spent a few nights in New Ulm & came here because it was recommended by a local. I must confess, we had low expectations, having done the bar steaks scene in the past with little to no success & seafood seemed out of place. I ordered the filet, shrimp, salad & Georges fries. I was thrilled that the filet was highlighted with light seasoning and perfectly cooked. The "fries" were delightful and the salad was as would be expexted but with a lovely thick ranch - dip quality! I could have done without the shrimp, truthfully. It isn't that they were bad, they were just unremarkable - breaded and lightly fried, typical fare. The staff werw friendly and fun. We had plenty to eat with leftovers to boot. The poterhouse pork chop & french onion soup were also huge hits! read more

Had onion rings, French onion soup and the dry aged pork chop .... Spectacular!!! Service was outstanding and friendly. GREAT spot for dinner. Make a reservation. read more

A great business family owned for many years off the beaten track well worth a trip even for the day George himself took great care of us. We always like to sit at the bar and strike up a conversation with the bartenders and in this case the owner, we will be back whenever opportunity arises. read more

Always a great spot. Food is very good and flavorful and the staff is very friendly and welcoming.

We had a post harvest supper here, great food and great service. I had delicious kabob's and didn't hear a single complaint from any one in our party of 20. Drinks were asked to be refilled very quickly. It's a classy brick restaurant read more

We came in on a Friday night and were seated in a cramped upstairs table. I ordered the tuna which was fishy tasting and a off brown color in the middle. I have had better fish from a can! This was considered a premium fish so cost $33. The bake potato was good at least. The steak was ok my husband ordered but his fries , which were roasted potatoes, were so salty he couldn't even eat them. The service was ok they were busy so we didn't complain but won't be back. read more

Not bad, food was good not great and had really been looking to try this place. I sat at a table really close to the kitchen so I got to observed the chef cooking. I get being busy but this cook was not enjoying what he was doing and it showed. Maybe I caught this restaurant on a off night (a Thursday night in the middle of June) but it was not to the standard I had anticipated. read more

Outstanding customer service. Amazing food. Hands down best baked potato and salmon I have ever had.

At George's food is a love language. You are not just going to get the best steak you've ever eaten, and the best French onion soup too; but you are going to leave feeling like you can love the world again. The wait staff is amazing. So are the Old Fashions. read more

What a find! We made reservations here for NYE and we are so glad we did. Service was exceptional, the meal was amazing (Tomahawk steak for two) and George was an exceptional, personable host. Don't miss this place in New ULM! The one hour drive was more than worth it!! read more

Steak was mediocre and could use more seasoning. Great service. Be sure to make a reservation ahead of time- especially on weekends.

FYI, first 5 star review!!!!! The steak is the best steak I have ever had!!! The rest of the food is so good and every choice has a good quantity. The staff are super friendly and helpful. They even held the seat we wanted for our second time back there. The proprietors jokes are really corny but, I like to think that adds to the ambiance of the place read more

George's is a great dining experience. It gives you the sit down steak house experience and the food is amazing. Lobster, Salmon, Baked Potatoes.. that's my usual order. read more

The husband and I were thinking we'd have a beer and a snack, but upon seeing their menu, we ended up sharing a porterhouse special. PERFECTLY prepared steak, homemade salad dressings, warm biscuits, and a skilled in finer dining waitstaff. Attentive, conversational, and good advice from our server made it easy to tip her well. While they provide cloth napkins, the dining is relaxed enough for just about anyone. Mankato no longer has a steakhouse, so this restaurant is a true treasure. read more

Very busy! Be sure to get a reservation. George was there and seated us and even helped the waitresses deliver food. Fried mushrooms - delicious! Cold beer - refreshing! Strip steak - perfect medium and so good! Do not miss this meal! read more

Great food, reasonable prices, Midwest service and good bourbon selection. Not fancy but very enjoyable and friendly service.

Delicious food, friendly staff, and cozy environment. I love the open kitchen. I got the salmon dinner and although the salmon was amazing the ranch on that side salad was out of this world. Call me crazy but I would come back just for the homemade ranch. read more

The service was friendly and prompt. Menu suggestions were spot on. We enjoyed the artichoke dip stuffed portabella. George was a gracious host and the staff was great. There was an event in town and everywhere was packed. It was busy but we didn't feel rushed and the staff seemed to be ahead of the game in every aspect. They were able to pull off the comfort of small town charm with solid service. The food and beverage portions were generous. read more

Good service even thovery busy on Tues night. Usually need reservations, but traveling thru town they seated us at the bar. Good food and fantastic cheesecake! read more

Great service & atmosphere! George was great to talk to can't wait to travel back there again!

This was a fun Oktoberfest experience other than this night for dinner! Now this is a nice local place, homemade food, dressings...that sort of thing but my beef (no pun intended) came from the fact they have the words "Fine Steak" in the name. The steak I had was far from "fine" unless of course your sitting in the parking lot at Bonanza, drunk and lost thinking "this could be a place for a fine cheap steak". This was a $25 New York Strip that was pounded flat, lined with fat and not worth $12 let alone $25. They should be stripped of the name "Fine Steaks" and maybe just stick with Steak or OK meat products, something like that. The Veggies that came with it also consisted of 3 spears of asparagus and 1 carrot. But not just one carrot, one nickel sized slice of carrot. Both of our plates had the same one sad slice of carrot on it, really ( in fairness It was very good though)! I would definitely not go back here and if I would have thought on it a little longer may have even refused to pay full price and I have NEVER done that before in my life! Nice little town with a bunch of much better places to go for dinner! KT read more

I was super excited for my steak dinner this week... but the steak, though it tasted good (yummy grilled flavor) as I was gobbling it, was oily and left my stomach feeling unsettled after the meal. It came with steamed veggies and a baked potato, which were okay. The highlight was the warm pre-dinner biscuits. I'll set my sights elsewhere for a hearty meal in New Ulm. read more

Very good place to eat in New Ulm, Minnesota. Good steaks and fish with generous servings. I had the rack of lamb with sautéed mushrooms and onions. Very good and I couldn't clean the plate without risk of exploding. Delicious desserts such as blueberry lemon cheesecake but hurry they may run out. Good salads included with entrees and the blue cheese dressing is superb. Bar with local brews on tap. Can't go wrong here. read more

Food was AMAZING & our server was great! She recommended the 'Ma's spitini' and it was phenomenal. Will definitely be back.

George's is one of our favorite places to visit. The staff is friendly and attentive every time we have visited. The food is GREAT! Keep up the good work George. Jerry B Mankato, MN read more

Great steaks, chicken or fish! A great steakhouse that I would visit again. They cook their meat true to order so I would recommend ordering your steaks medium. I was surprised to realize that the cook seasoned the salmon after it was grilled as the seasoning was dusted on the garnish too. I might be temped to try that out at home to see how it plays with the flavor. All in all a must stop shop when visiting New Ulm. read more

Wow I have eaten here before but it has been a while ago. Had the most inexpensive steak and it was wonderful the entire meal was spot on and delicious. Wait staff are warm and wonderful. I will always come to George's when in New Ulm. read more

It's spring break for my brother and I, and therefore my family has been given a rare opportunity to enjoy dinner together. Because this is a special occasion, we choose to go to George's, a spot not often frequented by my family, as we are generally not steak-eaters. This makes coming to George's even more of a special occasion. Our special dinner was a bit spoiled, however, by our service at George's. George himself opened us with open arms, introduced himself and learned our names, which was great, but the niceties seemed to stop there. Our actual waitress seemed unhappy to be serving us, giving us some attitude with our steaks. Our salads were not quite right, my mother's soup was forgotten about and then not good, and when I asked for a refill of my Shirley Temple I was instead given a tonic and grenadine (yuck). We felt as if we were burdening the restaurant in some way by choosing to dine there, which is never a good feeling as a patron of a restaurant. Our entrees were tasty, and perhaps we caught them on an off night, but I certainly hope this is not the norm for George's. It would be quite a shame. read more

George's, I'm sorry it took so long to write this. We went to New Ulm for our anniversary this summer, and dinner was at George's. Loved the place! George welcomed us, and the whole restaurant congratulated us as we sat down. The steaks were good, and since New Ulm is the home of Schells, we had pretty good beer. Honestly, the whole experience was great. The apps, the steaks, the service, we'll be back! read more

I was in New Ulm $ Sleepy Eye all day and wanted a good meal before driving 2hrs back to St Paul. I wanted a good steak dinner and boy did this place fit the bill. I had a fillet mignon (medium rare) topped with just kosher salt (on request) & butter, a salt crusted baked potato, steamed vegetables and a complimentary chocolate truffle for dessert. Is a small town simple restaurant, nice decor, upscale for the area, fine if you are from the Twin Cities. I thought he steak was a bit done on the exterior but once I cut inside it was perfectly done and what I found unique was that the steak was served VERY hot off the grill which enhanced the presentation and taste experience. Service was very good and the wine selection is good. I would definitely recommend them. read more

Come as you are and feel like an old friend of George's. It is not uncommon for George himself to welcome you at the door for seating at one of the booths, tables or bar. This is a small place that will leave you wondering how they produce the great food I've come to expect. To start with, I order a wedge of iceberg lettuce topped with a generous and scrumptuous serving of homemade blue cheese dressing. The wine selection is small but modestly priced. He also stocks a full choice of liquors and local Schell's beer on tap. George offers a full array of steaks, with flavor that will rival the best you've had. In general, I often times order the rib eye because of its flavor and tenderness. Not at George's, here I get the plain old sirloin smothered in mushrooms. The flavor, tenderness and lean cut will pleasantly surprise you. His fried potatoes can seem a little tough and dry, so I stick with the baked potato. The vegetable side is forgettable. The fish choices can be a gamble. It isn't always easy to keep fish fresh way out here on the prairie. Within the first few days of his tuna arriving, it is some of the best I've had any where. He offers it most generally as an appetizer called Tuna Shooters its served rare and spiced up with wasabi. I found that any issues that arise, are cheerfully resolved consistent with his motto of keeping his customers happy. It is true, the servers can show "attitude". It is too bad, I remind myself that it is not "about me". Probably some extra reminders from management about George's philosophy on good treatment of customers...George knows the drill. read more
