Celebrated my girlfriend's birthday at Genoa the other night. We were both pretty excited and had wanted to experience this much hyped up restaurant for a long time. Overall, we were disappointed.
The food was quite excellent, and the wine list was very good (and surprisingly, well balanced in terms of price). Service, however was pretty terrible by any standard. When we first got there, we received an unenthusiastic welcome, were promptly seated, but then left waiting at our table for about 20 minutes! Throughout dinner, we felt like an inconvenience to our server, who apparently was over her head a bit, because of some early arrivals.
I don't think I will ever go back and would not recommend Geona to my friends. The food was good, but the service and overall experience left much to be desired. Unacceptable at any price, much less $200+.
Cons: Service, Decor
