Gault&Millau's review 2026

At Georgie, bistro-style ease meets serious chef-driven cuisine. At first glance, it appears almost understated, yet never unnoticed. Small tables, a long banquette, white walls, and a high ceiling create a carefully considered setting in which it quickly becomes clear that nothing is left to chance. As the evening comes to life, the space finds its rhythm. Dishes arrive in a precise cadence, servers glide between the tables, and guests become part of the lively atmosphere. It is then that Georgie reveals what it does best. Local and seasonal ingredients take centre stage, the dishes are thoughtfully composed, and the flavours unfold in layers. Do not miss the so-called cacio e pepe, an iconic reinterpretation of the Italian classic. Dehydrated and then rehydrated turnip, paired with Jamar cheese foam, sunflower seeds, and a blend of peppercorns, develops into a dish that lingers in the memory long after the final bite. For meat lovers, the glazed beef cheeks are a highlight, while the wine list places an emphasis on naturally produced wines. At the table, the aroma of freshly baked sourdough bread completes the experience. Georgie impresses through the tension between relaxation and precision, apparent simplicity and carefully considered boldness.
