| - I have never been to the Triple George for dinner, but as far as lunch goes: NOWHERE downtown beats the food, service, and consistency of this place. NOWHERE. Not even the new places that have popped up (like Eat, etc.).
I work less than a couple of miles from here and frequent TG whenever clients or coworkers or even friends/family feel like meeting me for a lunch that is a bit more "classy" than most spots. And for the price and various lunch specials, you really cannot do any better!
I've ordered or tasted just about everything on the menu because I've been so many times. Today, I met my mom and grandmother for lunch and ordered a cup of french onion soup and a blackened salmon caesar salad. My grandmother had a TG club sandwich (turkey and roast beef on marble rye) served with coleslaw and my mother had a big bowl of the special minestrone soup.
First of all, the service is always impeccable. Even when busy, I have never had any issues with receiving assistance ordering or getting refills/orders taken immediately. Also, their sourdough bread is TO DIE FOR. Served so fresh and warm that it almost melts in your mouth!
My french onion soup was actually quite delicious and flavorful (and I just had authentic FO soup in Paris last week, so I'm definitely not easy to impress) and a perfect portion before my salad. The salmon was cooked perfectly and lightly seasoned, just the way I like it. The salad wasn't too impressive - just lettuce and a few crumbles of croutons, but it was caesar, so I wasn't expecting much more.
I didn't taste my mother's or grandmother's, but they gobbled everything up like it was their last supper!
Aside from the food, the ambiance and atmosphere are also wonderful. Rustic wooden walls and decor with vintage-Vegas pictures and a slightly dim lighting. Fantastic!
Here are a few of my menu favorites:
Any and all of the caprese salads/specials (they have had crab, filet, swordfish, etc.)
Seared Ahi
Downtown Wings
The Wedge
NY Steak Sandwich
Roasted Lemon Herb Chicken
Porcini Ravioli
BLT
(also, their shoe string fries are super tasty!)
