Reminds me of a flower shop. Flower shops could sell flowers more cheaply (lower price or bigger bouquets) if we bought more. Georgio's prices are too…

Tiny. Four of us went recently to this restaurant on a Groupon. Supposedly it was an $160 value, which we got at a deal for $60. I am extremely glad that we did! We were given a special menu that we had to pick on appetizer (salad, etc.) and an entree. Although the appetizer was quite good and of decent size, the entree was lacking and extremely small. That was all . . . for $160?! Someone needs a reality check! It was good sample, but still dubious at $15 per person.
Living Social. We purchased the living social deal … went last friday and even though the food was good the portions were so tiny we were highly disappointed…we were given a different menu and were excited but when the meal came..well what a disappointment! We are saddened that a restaurant can do this to promote new customers..yet…not be fair…we saw other portions going by that were purchased from the real menu and theirs were much larger..Why? We would go back…but now feel that they are trying to rip off good customers who..(we drove from Salem) are out for a nice dinner…It is a shame…so sad now a days when times are tough for everyone and integrity should be something restaurants should strive for… will not go back…
Fantastically Romantic!. And the food was incredible! We celebrated our 25th anniversary there, a few tables away from a couple celebrating their 50th anniversary! The baby kale caesar salad was divine, the chicken risotto meatballs so good we had to order more to take home, and the boar ragu! The boar ragu was dreamy… I’m still dreaming about it. The Lamb t-bones were gnaw-worthy and the wines delicious. There’s not a thousand choices, but the minimal menu list was all prepared superbly by the chef, Peter. And Georgio, the owner? He charmed us right off the street and into a table. Our waiter, Daniel, was brand new, but went out of his way to be sure we were well taken care of. Food, price, service: all exactly what we expected and more, in a very positive way. Thank you!
We have lived in the Pearl two blocks away from Giorgios for seven years and have dined there many years ago. As with many other reviews we had found the food good but overpriced. When they came out with a Groupon we figured that they were in trouble, which is not surprising because unlike so many places in the Pearl they never seem to be very busy. Never the less we thought that a Groupon would be a good way to experience the restaurant again at a more reasonable price.As another reviewer said, the Groupon was billed as a $100 value for two. For that each diner gets a slice of bread, a glass of house red or white, a choice of one salad or one soup, and a pasta dish. The food was excellent though not a $100 value. It was probably worth the $50 we paid for the Groupon. The service was good by the two wait staff in the entire place.What was very noticeable to us was the owner/manager. He would go to the non-Groupon tables and see how people were doing. We did not see him do the same at any of the five tables where Groupon patrons were seated. The meal was over in less than an hour, which was just as well so we could go somewhere else for more drinks and dessert (which would have been extra).With so much good food, especially Italian so nearby, there is no reason to go back in our minds. I imagine that this is a moot point however. While the owner was ignoring us, we had a couple of great conversations with other Groupon patrons, and the same deficiencies were noticed by others. If you have a Groupon I would use it soon before the place closes for good.
Food and service were both excellent. Everything was fresh and we enjoyed the personal attention. This is our second visit to Portland, and we have enjoyed Giorgio’s each time.
Very good authentic Tuscan cuisine. The calimarli app was the best! Staff was friendly and attentive. Limited menu with daily specials. Limited wine by the glass, plenty of italian reds by the bottle.
Classic and delicious. Giorgio’s cuisine is fresh and varied– always a delight! I’m a fan. The atmosphere is elegant and simple, not fussy, and the service is friendly. A great spot for business luncheons because it is not noisy or overcrowded.
