The view from the open terrace is amazing during the day, so bright and airy. It was very noisy and I don't even know if there was music playing at all. The service was good, the bussers kept our water very full all the time. My friend had the burger w/ aged cheddar and bacon- which was excellent and worth every penny. I had the 'most popular dish' I was told- the fig mustard, ham, and arugala panini. It was okay. The figs were so sweet and syrupy that was all one could taste, and no taste of mustard was to be found if there was supposed to be. The side salad and the fries were also great. they promptly brought us our check when ready.

Pros: BURGER, VIEW

Cons: NOISY, PARKING

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I had a lovely meal at George's California Modern last Friday. Haven't been there since they remodeled and I was pleasantly surprsed how modern, young & non-stuffy it felt. I had been there prior and the food was excellent, but the atmosphere felt too stuffy. NO MORE! The great bar in the bottom level was very cool. Creative & unique cocktails! Our dinner was beautifully prepared (we had the swordfish, albacore & seafood stew) and tasted excellent. The service was top notch too! Highly recommended for locals & a great place to take your out of town guest. Especially for lunch at the top level of Georges which has such an amazing view. Enjoy!

Pros: Excellent Food, beautiful views, impressive wine & cocktail list

Cons: parking
