Tonight my friend and I went to The George and had a very nice experience. When I arrived, it was quiet at 6:15pm, so I sat at the bar to wait for my friend. The bartender was nice and we were able to have a conversation when I wasn't expecting to do anything but sit and sip my water. A few minutes later, my friend and I sat at a nice, big table and took advantage of the free wine tasting. The 'wine lady' was very nice as well. We ordered 4 tapas -- goat cheese-stuffed peppadew, chicken quesadillas, figs and blue cheese, and bruchetta. All were yummy and different. We printed out the citysearch "buy 3 get 1 free" coupon and our checks each came out to just over $10. I gave a nice tip and left happy, having spent less than $15 and having tried 2 wines and 4 tapas. The portions were reasonable (each had enough for us to split, and then a little extra) and the atmosphere was hip and relaxing. Big windows for people-watching too :). I'd definitely go back!
Pros: Yummy and different food, free wine tasting, nice atmosphere and setting; online coupon!
Cons: Service could have been a little more attentive/personal
