my first time here. ordered western omelet with hone fries and toast, ordered a side of sausage. everything was cooked to perfection, and huge portions, 3 meals for me. . i also ordered to go the stack of buttermilk pancakes with the homefries and sausage (extra). the staff was very friendly and attentive. I think my only negative is that they do not deliver but other than that I am looking forward to my next visit there.. read more

Stopped here on the way home and my daughter said "I wish they had a place like this around where we live" She ordered the pumpkin pancakes. My other daughter ordered Nutella pancakes. They both loved the hot chocolate. Next time Im in town, I'll definitely visit again. read more

I love their food and have for years! The staples I get are the Tuna Sandwich on Rye toast with lettuce & tomato. And their omelettes are VERY good. They have daily specials and if they have salmon, I get it! Highly recommended for sure. read more

I understand maybe it's simply because of the economic environment at this time. But the quality of food and portions have gone way down as well as the prices have gone way up. Someone in my party ordered a ham and cheese on a roll with no egg and they charged us for the egg and basically said well that's how the machine does it so that's what you have to pay. That makes no sense. Home fries, portions or less smaller... We have gone here for years and years and unfortunately it just isn't what it used to be read more

An amazing spot! The customer service was fantastic. The tables outside were tented and placed far apart. The prices are great and the food was fantastic!! The tips were marinaded with this amazing sauce. They could be the best tips I've ever had. The shaved steak wrap was also damn good! Let's also not forget those absolutely delicious home fries. For sure will be returning! read more

From the first time my daughter took me here this is the only restaurant we go to now. All the staff to the food are excellent I definitely recommend George's Restaurant in Torrington CT. We tip our waitress as well as the young gentleman that clears the tables, it's my family's thing to tip the person clearing the tables because they're always working hard and get forgotten and don't receive a tip even though they work harder than the wait staff.​ read more

Always incredibly friendly staff- everyone of them! Food is piping hot and always as ordered.

"Inspiring Quotes & Food". My brother-in-law has been telling me for a while how great the food is at George's. He would say, "The steak tips are incredible and you have to try them." He invited me to go for breakfast Sunday to see for myself. Our wait was only about five minutes for a table. While standing there, I was uplifted by all the inspirational quotes on all the walls and the chalk board. There are more inspirational quotes hung throughout the restaurant on the warm burnt orange colored walls. The restaurant is very clean and the waitresses are really friendly. I didn't think to look over the whole menu because I opened it and immediately spotted my choice. My favorite breakfast with the steak tips. Steak Tips Benedict. I've been to quite a few of the best breakfast diners in Connecticut and I think George's might be even better. My breakfast was exceptional. Super tender flavorful steak tips on top of english muffins and poached eggs and smothered with a delicious hollandaise sauce. The homefries were crispy and well seasoned with sauteed peppers and onions and a hint of rosemary. My sister had the french toast and loved it. My niece had a bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel. My other two nieces both had big fluffy pancakes with bacon. And my brother-in-law shot for the stars. He went all out with the steak tips with eggs, homefries, rye toast and an order of pancakes. We all enjoyed our breakfast. George's also has a menu just for their selection of muffins. I didn't try a muffin, but when my parents go there my mother gets a dozen muffins to-go. This restaurant should be on Connecticut Magazine's "Best Of" list for Best Breakfast. read more

I came to George's because a friend wanted to meet me here for breakfast, and I was concerned because it had a one star rating on Google. I was very pleasantly surprised, then, when I found that it had wonderful variety, fresh ingredients in food, and friendly, helpful service. They have a variety of yogurt muffins that looked great, I am gluten free at the moment so I didn't try those. I had a Mediterranean omelette that was delicious. Coffee was good, and it was served with a smile. I didn't try the cannoli French toast, or the blueberry pie French toast, but I may be back! read more

George's is a family run business who take great pride in being welcoming and inviting to all people. We enjoy breakfast there at least 3 times a month if not more. The breakfasts are truly the best in the state. Eggs always made exactly the way you want and served by an amazing and friendly waitstaff, who recognize us and even remember what we order. Requests always honored. During the pandemic they have been respectful and taken it seriously, retrofitting the entire indoors, building a massive tent, and ensuring safety cooking methods. I like, let's say Dottie's in Woodbury who has a ridiculous "unmask our kids" sign inside on their hostess podium, and a bumper sticker insulting those who wear masks. George's takes its customers seriously and understanding that being safe will keep their customers coming and most of all, ALIVE. I was recently told at another local diner breakfast place, "no, we cannot make your home fries well done, because if she has eggs on the griddle, she might not be able to fit your home fries on it." What? Wait until your first set of eggs get cooked and lay down some home fries. This is just an excuse. My homefries can back to me barely cooked as if they were going to teach me a lesson. I did indeed learn a lesson. I learned to never eat there again. If you haven't been to George's, you're missing out on perfectly cooked homefries, delicious pancakes, and the most perfectly cooked bacon. read more

This is our favorite place for breakfast! It's our real hometown restaurant joint. Service is friendly and food is great. Do note, that if you change something on the menus there may be a charge. But no company stays in business of giving stuff away. read more

Best breakfast place in Torrington! Anyplace that has raw sugar & pure maple syrup is tops in my book. Friendliest staff and owners! Fresh ingredients! Makes you feel right at home! read more

I went to George's twice, once on a Sunday and once on a weekday. I can't comment on the lunch as I only went there during breakfast hours. I ordered the house omelette and the Italian omelette. I think the Italian omelette is really good as I'm a fan on peppers and spicy sausage. The staff are great and I love the old school decor. Will be back! read more

Wonderful food with a happy atmosphere. Very polite and attentive staff. Would recommend and come again!!!

It's official. After 5+ years of regular visits... sometimes three days in a week... we're never coming back. We were patient through the transition to the new owners, however the food and wait staff have steadily gone downhill. The seasoned wait staff have been replaced with careless teenagers with no personalities. The cook is horrible. Simple dishes such as omelette, hash browns, or over-easy eggs, have been horrible for weeks. Even as I type this, we have been waiting for our check for over 30 minutes. Farewell. read more

Oct. 2019 This is a current review...not sure why Yelp averages in old 2015 reviews that are probably about entirely different staff, etc. The menu is terrific, but the staff are the best ever! I look forward to the smiling friendly waitresses when I am on my way to George's. The food is always great, and I have tried many dishes. Everything is homemade and not skimpy on portions. You can always have it your way...very flexible and accommodating. If they had oatmeal, I would have no reason to go elsewhere! read more

Our favorite place to grab breakfast or lunch. Good food, reasonable prices, and wonderful, friendly staff! If you haven't tried it, you should! You won't be disappointed. read more

I've been here a few times now only for breakfast. Love it. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff with great service. The food always tastes fresh. Good prices, quality, and quantity. Great local diner! read more

I've been here a couple times recently. I got egg whites which was a little different than I'm used to because they made it almost like an omelette instead of scrambled. Either way it was still good! I really love their home fries. Last time I went I got an omelette with peppers and onions. Delicious! I do think the portions are a little small for a breakfast place. Our service here has always been good though. I just think they need a little renovation done on the inside, doesn't really feel like a restaurant. It's a little monotone and blah looking. Other than that it's good food! read more

I NEVER write a Yelp review but today's service was so incredibly friendly that I downloaded the app just to say thanks. We learned that the positivity at George's doesn't happen by mistake but it's something that the owners focus on with the staff. It shows! Thanks for brightening up our day! read more

If there was a zero stars that is what they would get. We have been going here for years, but never again. A simple poorly done scrambled egg is the cause. Not only is the owner obnoxious if questioned but the overbearing daughter feels the need to step in to defend daddy's honor because she thinks it is her place to call customers rude...this is such a local joint that even locals can feel uncomfortable. I will do my very best to make sure I tell anyone and everyone I can to stay as far away from George's as possible. Sometimes even what may have been a great local breakfast place at one time, can grow too big for its britches and need to get knocked down a peg or two... By the way, this was my 1st ever online review... read more

Love Georges for breakfast and lunch. It's good and fresh and predictable every time. I have gotten breakfast from there once a week almost every week for years. A torrington institution. read more

This longtime establishment recently has gone through some changes. Food and service quality compromised due to owner transfers suffered. It's newest owners bring an experience that supercedes the original's. Owners ,staff, food quality have improved dramatically. I stop at this eatery often enough to notice differences and my last time (Saturday), was impressive. Only a month into new management by local people, I can sense they are all about the dining experience. I suggest a try as the food speaks for itself. read more

Great spot for breakfast. Quick service and excellent food.

I've been going here for years. It's a great local diner, one of my favorite breakfast spots. The food is always excellent, the service is typically good but they can sometimes lack on the coffee refills. Parking can be tight when it's busy, and they do fill up from time to time. read more

Best breakfast around, hands down. They have changed my liking of breakfast into loving breakfast. Great service and friendly staff.

Good breakfast and cheap prices. Omelettes are decent -GREAT Coffee!! I'll be coming back. Potatoes are just ok

Delicious breakfast every time we visit. I highly suggest the steak tip Benedict! The servers are always cheerful and fast. The prices are great. Perfect place to take the kids or meet up with friends. read more

I went here two days in a row. The first day the service was horrible and the food was just eh. I've heard good things about this place so I thought I'd try them again. The second time was even worse- they literally fought with me about what I ordered... I've been a waitress for many years and A. I know what I ordered And B. The customer is always right. After a bitter conversation they finally brought me my correct order- still waiting to see if they charge me for the first one which I no doubt think they will. And the food was still eh nothing special and the service terrible. Please think twice before going here. Thanks read more

My husband and I had breakfast here last week. The new owners were very accomodating. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive. The food was terrific. Jodi, Ralph and Tony visited the table personally to be sure we enjoyed everything. Looking forward to experiencing the new energy they bring to Torrington! read more

Horrible experience, we wanted to mix eggs Benedict, we were told we couldn't. Ok no problem. So we ordered traditional Eggs Benedict, the wrong order came out so we sent it back. The cook who I believe is the owner threw a fit and made us wait 15 mins and then asked us to leave. Very rude we will never go back and we will be sure to tell are friends to avoid this place. read more

Eh....I guess its more of a local thing. I for one was less than impressed. The food was average and bland at best. The prices were actually pretty high, especially for breakfast in Torrington. The portions were about average and the service was decent so I guess its got that going for it. Unfortunately the decor looks like you stepped right into a truck stop kitchenette back in the 70's. It's essentially one big open room with cafteria looking tables, wood panelling and lots of dust. They have a number of your normal, breakfast options on the menu, but nothing else to write home about. My wife had a greek omlete which was a bit light on fillings and the way it was put together (no meat?), I had a breakfast wrap which was rather large but devoid of any real taste, and my mother-in-law had a short stack of blueberry pancakes which looked rather on the dry side. Not a place I'd recommend really but I guess if you're in a pinch and just feel like being lazy and going somewhere low-key this might be an option. read more
