We had pizza and cocktails. Both were very delicious. Our server, Storm, was excellent! Very personable and attentive but not overbearing.

Great place. Some confusion with our server at the beginning meant we waited quite some time. But once sorted she was all over it. Love the whipped feta starter, and the pasta mains where all winners. Definitely a return place.

The Genuine has a lovely atmosphere, good food and great service. I had the beet salad with chicken which was delicious. The funnel cake dessert was a fun experience and creative option for dessert!

The service was outstanding; the food was excellent. Two of the 6 drinks were sent back, but the replacements were again superior. The only complaint is the women's restroom. It is in desperate need of remodeling--chipped paint, and water stained counters, plus it had a horrible sewer smell. This was the only thing that destroyed the experience.

Anther great meal at The Genuine. Six of us went on a Sunday afternoon after we'd been wine tasting nearby. The food was great, we loved chatting with our server, and the Chef who was nearby our table. The football game was on. Great time!!

Disappointed in the menu and food. Asked for hot tea and jelly for my toast. They did not have either. Cinnamon roll was average. Too many other places for brunch that have better quality food
The GenuineResponded on November 5, 2024
Hi Kay I apologize we didn’t have Jelly. We have since ordered some and hope you will come back and give us another shot. Please ask for our manager upon arrival.

It would have been nice had my dining reward been honored. I was so embarrassed and the manager refused to call Open Table. Jessica the manager told us it wasn’t her job. No wonder the place was half empty. Our server was rude

Judi I apologize there was a misunderstanding. We look forward to having you back so we can do better.
