The George & Dragon

Description:

• In a restored 18th-century building with a balcony overlooking King's Square, this popular local hangout suits diners on a variety of budgets. You can come for sandwiches and English pub fare, such as fish and chips or shepherd's pie. The more formal areas serve some very expensive fish dishes, mostly based on the catch of the day. Linen tablecloths and subdued lighting at night enhance the elegant atmosphere. Portions are very large, judging from our Angus beef and rack of lamb. The salads, including avocado, Caesar, chef's, Greek, Mexican, and seafood, are among the best in St. George.
