Not many restaurants possess the right to claim that they present unparalleled cuisine, impeccable service...

Valet was very friendly and prompt, hostess was cheerful, we had a great table wtih an outstanding view, but our waiter was horrible. He needed lots of training. To start with he...

Great View for Lunch 5/21/2009

Great place to impress out-of-towners for lunch, especially if they come from back East where the weather is always unpredictable and bad. The ocean view is awesome.The cumin crusted Ahi Tuna was good, but the portions seem a little small for the price (would have been nice to nestle it on a salad instead of just a plate). It's obvious they are trying to pay the high rent. But I must say I was greeted with a smile by the attractive Maitre "D" in front of my out of town guest, as if she was very glad to see us, and for me that's a plus. Dinner at night is romantic, but once again - pricey. Pros: The View is awesome. Ample parking on PCH. Cons: pricey - even for lunch. more

Low-grade services and false promises 3/9/2009

The view is probably the most beautiful thing you'll receive from this place. About 5 minutes after being seated, a man handed us the menu and said, I'm unsure who waits this table, but let me go find out. Fifteen minutes gone by, and still no sound -- no hi, no hello, no I'll be with you in just a moment or anything. Not until we walked away from the table that he, Omar, decided to approach us and ask us to come back to dine. We refused and asked to speak to the manager. The manager apologized and insisted that we stay with the promise of covering some of the bill -- which she did not. We did ended up staying. I requested that we have another waiter and her replied was Omar is my best waiter and he would like to make it up to you guys. This Omar guy, who does not acknowledge his customers for 20 minutes, is the best thing this so called "classic" restaurant has? According to the standard they claim to have met, this is not what I would call a "classic restaurant"! more

Arrogant chef wouldn't even substitute steamed vegetables... 2/15/2009

No substitutions...no substitutions...now, on Valentine's Day, when you don't exit a restaurant such as this for less than $300 including drinks, is it too much to ask for something cheaper than the item the entree is served with...or a cup of fruit instead of the lavender creme brulee? I kid you not...even the serving staff said that it's time for famed chef ""Bijon,"" if that's how you spell it, to take his leave. I wonder what happened if his kids wanted maple syrup instead of some special molasses truffle topping on their disney shaped pancakes? No substitutions. Sorry Geofrrey's...you missed the mark big time on this one. You don't mass produce plates at those prices. Pros: Service Cons: Arrogant chef, prices, and special occasion mass produced food more

Worth the drive 2/9/2009

The fact that I have to past so many of my favorite restaurants along the way to Geoffrey's means I don't get there nearly often enough. Nonetheless, that is a fact I regret. Their ocean view rivals Moonshadows, Duke's and other Malibu favorites. Service is always exceptional and we enjoy spending time at the bar before sitting for lunch or dinner. As noted by another reviewer, the ahi is wonderful. Lobster lovers will also appreciate the lobster in vanilla cream sauce. Pros: Beautiful view and patio, great service, fun bar, beautiful drive Cons: Long drive from most of LA more

I had a great time here. The view is amazing and the food/drinks are great. I had the cumin crusted Ahi, which was just amazing and the bread rolls were delicious. The service was a little slow, but they were busy. Great date place! more
