Best Brunch Restaurants in Sylvan Park & Sylvan Heights

We had a party of 4, sat outside in the heated patio. Very comfortable and cozy. 2 of us got the shrimp and grits. Savory sauce, really good. My husband got the scallops. He enjoyed them, good flavor but there were only 3 scallops. Would go back.

Four of us attended Geist on Valentine’s Day for dinner. We were seated in the outside area which has a beautiful ambience but the evening was quite cold so we wore our winter coats throughout the dinner. The outside area has two fireplaces and one standup propane heater but it was still cold. Perhaps they could procure one or two more heaters? The service was fantastic and the fixed menu excellent. Three of us ordered the scallops starter and the filet mignon main. Excellent! One of us ordered the salmon which he said was very good. The dessert menu was limited to two items which were good. Maybe next year they could add a chocolate dessert option? Geist is excellent and we would definitely go back. Considering how very busy the restaurant was, the service and kitchen staff delivered! Great job!

The food was great if a little seafood heavy. I didn’t realize beforehand that is was a seafood restaurant. I had the avocado corn pizza and it was so good. My daughter had the chicken sandwich. She enjoyed very much. Service was professional and responsive.

It was Valentine's Day - nevertheless we were seated immediately but never with the sense we were being rushed to make way for the crowd. The food was excellent and inventive - the valet had our car in no time and it made a day that is often perfunctory fell special.

Making reservations for a time we wanted was easy. Everything we ordered was great! We started with an expresso martini and a local beer and pretzels with the cheese fondue. Then dinner was the short ribs with potatoes au gratin with the mac and cheese. Dessert was the bread pudding and the molten lava butter cake with toffee bits. Yes, we ordered two desserts because we couldn’t decide.
