Amazing service and yummy food. Great atmosphere! The burnt brisket ends were too good! Love the brisket and chicken the most. Ham was ok, I kinda was expecting a thicker cut. Pulled pork was good. Fries and the chips were really tasty. Cocktails were delicious. Can't wait to come back. Parking is really weird. So ... try and get the front of the building spots because the sides have some weird hours that make zero sense. That's not their fault obvi. Read More

Excellent food! I have been here on a few occasions and I have always been happy with everything I ordered on the menu. Last time I got the Big Texan Burger and it was delicious. I will return again many times in the future.

I recently had a great dining experience at Nobel House and wanted to share my thoughts. We started with the chicken tortilla soup, which was absolutely delicious. It was full of flavor, and while it was $14, it was definitely worth it for how tasty it was. For the main course, I had the brisket skillet, and wow—the ... portion size was incredible. The skillet came with huge chunks of burnt ends brisket—tons of meat. I was initially skeptical about the $19 price, but when the dish arrived, I felt like I was getting a bargain. The amount of brisket they put on that skillet was impressive. I also ordered a side of breakfast sausage patties for $5, and they gave me three large patties. Another great value for the portion size. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and overall, I was super happy with the food and the experience. Even though the prices seemed a bit high at first, the portion sizes and quality made it totally worth it. I’ll definitely be back! Read More

The food is delicious, I haven’t tried anything here that I don’t love! The staff is awesome, and the bar itself has a great vibe to it. Love coming here for lunch/dinner or just to grab a drink. They have live music on Friday which is always fun. The weekend brunch menu is also great, and they have some of the best ... bloody marys around! Read More

Great food. Continuous improvement opportunity: Few wobbly bar tables need to be fixed.

Great place for a few beers and a game or if you want a fun atmosphere for a date night out. We have been a couple of times, but the vibe on weekend nights is great! Service was excellent, and the drinks were generous. The menu is a decent size with lots of great options.

We went to dinner here with our five and seven-year-olds and it was the perfect spot. A little noisy so nobody around us was annoyed by a couple of bouts of tears but not so loud that we couldn’t have a conversation. All of the food was tasty - especially the poutine appetizer that we added burnt ends to - though the ... Brussels sprouts were a little dry. I really loved my pulled pork sandwich and that it came with two types of bbq sauce. My kids were thrilled that their favorite items were on the kids menu - burgers and Mac and cheese. Overall, great family restaurant in Geneva, but cool enough for date night! Read More

Over all excellent experience. Just moved to the geneva area so we are just trying the local places. My wife ordered the grilled salmon and she's very picky about it so to hear her say it was a 10/10 is saying alot. Staff was great. Order to table time was right on point. Can't wait to try some more stuff from ... here Read More
