George's Restaurant

There aren't many choices at 1:30 in the morning. And before you ask! No, we were not drunk. There was two other tables and one waitress who I'm going to call Frankenskank! She seemed a bit disheveled when we walked in as she wasn't sure what to do with us. She took us to our table and as we were walking, asked us what we wanted to drink. And then repeated herself with no hesitation from the first time and immediately raced off as soon as we spit out the right answer. She came back in seconds with our soda and glasses of water and dropped off the menu's. Then we didn't see her again for 10 minutes. When she finally came back, she asked if we knew what we wanted? My friend said she was starving. This is where the fun started! She said I'm the only one here and what do you want, I'm ready. When my friend didn't get her order out fast enough, she stomped her foot and gave a sigh! I wanted to die when my friend asked what kind of toast she could have! When she was done she stuck her face in mine and said, What! I gave her my order, not wanting any extra cobs added and I didn't make eye contact. She bolted and Yelled out, every weekend! Every weekend! I didn't see any self serve sign when we walked in. And this crazy Bitch was not alone. When I went to wash my hands, there were two more waitresses in the other room Yakking up a storm! Besides, there was only two other tables and one was already eating. We didn't get a bread basket like the other tables had and I surely wasn't going to ask for one! Our food came out immediately and we got refills and more water. So we had 8 glasses on the table and nether of us had touched the first waters. She said, do you need anything else? And before I could say anything, she left. The food was good, but my friend asked for dry toast with butter on he side. it came already buttered. When we were almost finished with our food she came back with dry toast and apologized, took the dish with the wrong toast and followed my friends hand with the dish to put down the piece she was holding. I had my hand over my mouth the whole time to keep from busting out laughing. Then came the cherry on the cake! Frankenskank came back and asked if she wanted to take the rest of the food home with her? My friend said yes, and she said what size box, large or small? Oh no! My friend hesitated and said I don't know how big your box is? She took off with my dishes and, Yes folks! Threw them over the counter and they crashed into the bin with the other dishes. You can't make this crap up! She came back with the appropriate size box, dropped off the check and took the rest of the dishes. And yes, there was a second crash! I couldn't wait to get out of here! The only reason they gave Miss Personality the swing shift, is she probably molting during the day! We did leave her a 20% tip. But I will never darken the stoop of this Freakshow again!

I have spent many a late night here.  And even a couple mornings.  George's is a great all night restaurant and the food's pretty good too.  The servers are like the one's your grandparents encountered in the 50's, they know your name and story and can pretend to care with the best of them.  They are on on the ball and your coffee cup will rarely go empty.  The coffee is good too, anytime of day, which is nice.  The really great thing about the coffee is that they bring you a carafe of coffee and refill that when you get low.  I love that. To me it's one of the best things a place can do.  

The food is damn tasty I have to say.  The real star is the skillets, the hobo skillet to be precise.  I don't know where they find the magical hobo's that they use to make the skillet, but hot damn they are the best thing this side of the mason-dixon.  Ask anyone about George's breakfast and they'll just say "Hobo Skillet" and smile knowingly like its some kind of inside secret, like ordering your burger animal style and In and Out Burger.  But it's totally on the menu for anyone to have, so if it was supposed to be a secret it's not a very well kept one.  But that's ok, because the world needs to know.

Gyro Gyro Gyro!
I like this place, standard Greek-y/Omega-y food. Decent service.
This place serves the bowling alley where i bowl on a league so it's super convenient, but they also have a full sized restaurant next door to the bowling alley.
The glass desert case always looks really fantastic too - I GOTTA try some of that stuff.
Also, I've heard from several people that the skillets at George's are the best on earth.
