    We had a wonderful night at dinner! The decorations were amazing and service from our server Steven was great:) We were seated under a speaker that was a little loud, but regardless we had a great time and will definitely be back soon! We had the beef tenderloin and the rigatoni and it was to die for!

    This was my first time at Geist and it is a must see and experience especially during Christmas time . The service by our waiter, Paine, was attentive and responsive. The food for brunch was diverse and delicious. We were seared next to a lovely fireplace in the champagne garden and it was warm and cozy. Gotta go to Geist!
