Reviews For George and Violet's

First of, before we get into the food, I'd like to compliment our server. He was friendly, attentive and was very prompt. The food was delicious and everything put together was outstanding. I loved all the food and the desserts were very flavorful without being too sweet. I'd much prefer these desserts opposed to many of the bake shops around town. We had smoked earl grey ice cream, fig something really yummy and Panna cotta. This is the 1st time I've been here. We are picky about our steaks. The medium was a true medium with the perfect amount of Pink, but the char on the outside was just the right amount. I'm so happy with my birthday meal and I'll definitely be returning. This is a gem for Springfield. There's been some nice additions in the past few years, but I'd say this is by far the best restaurant in the city by far.

this place is amazing. I got there right after 5 o’clock when they opened and had a seat at the bar. Conner a rockstar! He was friendly and quick with my dinner. I had the New York strip, which was on point. Ask for their special horseradish sauce and don’t skip the fries. They make their own in-house garlic salt for those things which is amazing.

We loved the food here even though we are not steak eaters and that is probably what this place is best known for. We had the duck breast and it was delicious along with several small plates. This is a chef's place and the small plates are creative and interesting. They also have creative cocktails. Great service. Just an all round good experience.

George Violet’s strikes the perfect balance between upscale dining and small-town charm, creating an ambiance that’s both casual and elegant. From the moment you walk in, the owners and staff make you feel like family, going above and beyond to ensure an exceptional experience. The food is nothing short of amazing. Each dish is beautifully crafted, with flavors that are both creative and memorable. Whether you’re sharing a romantic date night or dining as a family with toddlers in tow, this place accommodates effortlessly, making every occasion feel special. It’s rare to find a restaurant where everything aligns so perfectly—quality, service, and atmosphere—but George Violet’s has mastered it. Truly a hidden gem that we’ll keep coming back to!

This has got to be one of my top favorite places in the area for high end, delicious food. Every bite was sensational! We started with the Salmon Crudo, I could honestly eat 5 plates of this and have been dreaming about it since. Next we had beef and rice balls which were perfectly crispy on the outside and flavor was off the charts. My husband had the dungeoness crab pasta and I had the duck - both were incredible. Cocktails were great too, and the service was fantastic. 10/10

Our go-to fancy casual spot in the Eugene area. Superlative attention to all details of food, drink, and service. Really appreciate their care and consideration with ingredients and about dietary restrictions too! Their specials rotate based on local, seasonal ingredient availability and their main menu gets an update every so often too. If you're looking for a special occasion spot or even just a place to go for a delicious dinner out, George and Violet's is it.

Fantastically curated menu. Not too many nor too few options. Everything was great. Steak was perfect. My Ceaser salad made me question my spiritual beliefs. I'm born again, and you could be too. Try it out.

The restaurant is a bit dark at first, but you do get used to it. The setting is modern, a little old fashioned and very classy. The service is First Class, our waiter, Conor, is the absolute best; super friendly and extremely knowledgeable. And the food? Possibly the best in the world. I cannot recommend George and Violets strongly enough. Go once and you'll visit again.
