Update: Thank you, Tony for your attentive response to our initial, not so favorable review. We've been back 3 times and have been 100% satisfied with the food we ordered and the service we received. Initial review: I wish i had taken photos to share. We ordered from George's last week and really enjoyed our veggie grinders. We ordered again Monday night, 12/18 @ 5pm. The male who took our order over the phone seemed preoccupied, uninterested and i felt i was being rushed off the phone. When I opened my veggie grinder at home i found, well, let's just say thank goodness the bread was good because there was basically no veggies inside. I felt I was robbed of $10.45 . It's sad enough I'm paying $10.45 for a veggie grinder but to open it up to find almost nothing inside, WOW. I prefer to support the small, local, ma and pa businesses but i cannot support this kind of business. I realize it's mostly on the one employee who displayed poor customer service on the phone and maybe another one employee who assembled (or didn't) the grinder I ordered but they, as employees, represent this small business. It's really too bad because last wk's grinders were outstanding and it's convenient for us...
Read moreSo, after seeing multiple posts in multiple places about how great George's grinders are, we decided that we would have to try. Had to wait until a night that they were open until 7, since we are not local and the drive would have us arrive later in the day. Tried to call to confirm they were open and place an order. No one picked up the phone on several tries. So, we decided to give it a shot. Ordered three grinders -- two RB's and a meatball - both of which were recommended. They were out of rolls so we could only get hard rolls. The roast beef grinders were the skimpiest grinders I have ever gotten and certainly did not match any of the pictures that we had seen. The woman making the grinders was pretty rude. The meatball grinder was cold and as a result, the hard roll was too soggy to hold the meatballs so I had to eat it from the inside out. Cold un-melted American cheese. The food was edible but most certainly not worth the trip and we won't go back. Not sure if it was an off day or if this was the biggest bait and switch ever. Really...
Read moreI want to give a shout out to George’s Terryville Avenue Market ! I stopped in yesterday to get a veggie sandwich for my cousin who isn't doing so well. I told the guy behind the counter a little background about why I was getting the sandwich & that I had no idea what veggies she might want on it but she told me that veggie sandwiches from George's plain with just cheese were her favorite. I waited up at the register and decided to add an oatmeal raisin cookie for dessert. I had my card out ready to pay & he said it was on him! Such a kind, kind gesture. It actually brought tears to my eyes & happiness to my heart!! If you're ever in the area, stop in and...
