Geoffrey's Restaurant

My husband and I ate here Saturday night. We arrived at 6pm they parked our car immediately, we were seated immediately and what a table it was. Gorgeous view of the Pacific. We had very polite waiters. We started the evening off with a couple of "" Kisses By The Sea"" drinks with an order of Crab Cakes that were devine. The dinner bread is delicious. We also ordered the Lobster Bisque to share and it was wonderful. I ordered the Curry Prawns and they were perfect, just the right amount of curry. I also left room for dessert and had the Apple Tart which wasn't as amazing as I had heard. All in all we had a great evening. It was worth every cent. Pros: ambience, service, view and chef Cons: small menu with a big price more

The food wasn't good at all either. If the staff were kind and friendly, it would have made up for the bad food, but then there is nothing great about this restaurant. If service and friendly staff is important to you, then Geoffrey's isn't the right place for you, specially when there are so many wonderful restaurants in LA who would actually appreciate your business much more than these guys. The rudest people ever!!! Pros: They are so rude Cons: They can't any ruder more

What a great place, the view is great and so is the food. The service is top notch, and its so hidden. I love going for Sunday brunch, I love the valet parking. It is a great way to relax on sunday. Pros: Everything is great Cons: not getting a table on the balcany. more

LIve in the South Bay and wanted to see Geoffrey's since a lot of people are always talking about. Of course there's that long, dark drive in which I try to drive slowly to avoid getting a speeding ticket on PCH (we saw two people pulled over, and I've actually gotten one on it before). Yes, parking is weird and down a hill I made the valet guy take my car down, the stack parking reminded me of a house party. We had to wait 25 min. passed our reservation time which wasn't TOO bad...Service was really good, besides having to ask for a straw three times from three different people. The bread was good, our dishes were OK, everything seemed pretty spicy. We went at night so we couldn't see the water but the lights and fire were really nice and calming. The best part of the night was our Apple Tart dessert...really good! I would recommend going around dusk. Pros: Ambiance, view, decor Cons: price, mediocre food, parking more

I came to Geoffrey's for Sunday brunch and it was lovely. The view of the Pacific Ocean is breathtaking, and the atmosphere is beautiful: lots of flowers and plants, beautiful awnings, cute little tables, etc. We were seated right on the edge by the water, which was fabulous. It was a sunny day, but if it's cooler bring a jacket, even though I think they have heat lamps. Although many other diners have complained about the service, we had no problems at all, and the wait staff was very friendly. For appetizers we got the jumbo coconut shrimp and the baked brie in a puff pastry (both delicious), and then I had the Challah french toast (also great) - altogether it was extremely filling though. The drawbacks are that this place is NOT cheap, and that parking in their tiny, downhill-slanted lot is a nightmare, even with the valet. Pros: ambience, food, overall experience Cons: price, parking more

I recently went to Geoffrey's and was blown away by how beautiful it was. You sit down and over look the ocean and just relax. The staff was really friendly and the food very good.\r I started with the mussel's and for dinner the waiter recommended the Ahi which was amazing. What I like about this place is that it's romantic and cool without the additude. Pros: romantic,outdoor dinning,ocean view Cons: parking more

My boyfriend and I went to Geoffrey's for his birthday. I made the 7:30 reservation a week and a half in advance and asked for a great table. They told me they couldn't guarantee it but I took my chances anyway. We arrived 15 minutes early for our reservation, the hostess didn't even bother with a smile or a hello, just a mean glance and a curt inquiry as to whether we had a reservation. Then she told us we'd still have to wait about 1/2 hour. I discreetly asked her to remind whoever our server would be for a dessert w/ a candle for my bf's birthday and the hostess acted annoyed. We checked back in 20 minutes and were rudely told that that we could just wait in the bar until there was a table available. No apology, no nothing. But we did anyway, and didn't end up getting seated till 8:15, 45 minutes after our reservation time and an hour after we had gotten there. Table was ok, but nobody even came by for at least 10 minutes. When waiter finally came, he acted like he was miserable and couldn't wait to get out of there. Like how dare he had to work. I actually felt bad for ordering a drink, then had to remind myself that duh, I was at a restaurant! There was no kindness or courtesy or any effort to make the experience special. We should have left right then, but I guess like a bad movie, you keep hoping it'll get better. We finally got our food (the chicken and the lobster), and the plates were dropped in a hurry, not even a "enjoy." The chicken was dry and tasteless, the lobster ok but for close to $50 I expected bigger and better -- nothing to write home about. Our waiter didn't check back on us till we were almost done with our food, by which time it was too late to ask for the extra side we had wanted to order. And to top it all off, he forgot the birthday dessert (or was not told by the hostess). For rude or no service and less than ok food you could do better somewhere else. Pros: The view is bomb but you're better off just having drinks. Cons: The food and the "service." They make you feel like you're bothering them. more

This establishment is not known for it's food, it's more of the atmosphere. The food is decent, serivce decent, but the view is nice, if you are wanting to have a bird's eye view of the ocean. Pros: View Cons: Food and service more
