Chef Geoff’s is a restaurant in Washington, DC that The Postrider‘s founders have a particular obsession with and go to frequently enough that it makes an ideal testing ground for testing the metric over an extended period of time.

| 1/30/20 |
Ordered: NY strip steak, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos, cinnamon donuts |
| 7.08 |
Notes: Non-happy hour which drives the price up, but those donuts are truly a special treat. |
| 1/27/20 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 8.0 |
Notes: Back to the classics, pepperoni pizza kills it every time. |
| 1/20/20 |
Ordered: Brussels sprout pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 7.19 |
Notes: Trying the Brussels sprout pizza again since I was starving, had a mishap on the order but it made up for it! |
| 1/13/20 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 8.0 |
Notes: A great time sitting at the bar, packed night, but the pizza with the beer – fugettaboutit! |
| 1/6/20 |
Ordered: Brussels sprout pizza, pint of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 7.96 |
Notes: The pizza was very rich but unique, got a free pint for the new year, and the restaurant was very nice about comping the pizza after the issue with my last trip there. |
| 1/1/20 |
Ordered: Hangover burger #2, cup of coffee |
| 3.57 |
Notes: Happy New Year! Here’s a broken piece of metal in your hamburger… eek. That kinda ruined the meal for me, the cup of coffee and company was good though! |
| 12/15/19 |
Ordered: Steak wrap, cup of coffee |
| 6.46 |
Notes: Weekend brunch, a bit pricey but the steak wrap is really good. And their brunch sweet bread for the table is always a hit. |
| 12/9/19 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 8.0 |
Notes: They’ve been on a roll with handing out the bread, see what I did there? Roll. |
| 12/2/19 |
Ordered: Chef Geoff’s burger, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 8.64 |
Notes: Chef Geoff’s burger was a bit medium for my taste, but putting up the holiday decor really lifted my spirits! |
| 11/11/19 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 7.0 |
Notes: Pepperoni pizza is a classic, though my heart longs for the prosciutto to come back to me. |
| 11/4/19 |
Ordered: Chef Geoff’s burger, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 10.55 |
Notes: This may be one of the greatest Chef Geoff’s experiences, the food was above perfect today (even though they took the prosciutto pizza off of the happy hour menu!), the bread was warm and moist, the company and atmosphere was fantastic, and I GOT TO MEET CHEF GEOFF! |
| 10/20/19 |
Ordered: Classic bloody Mary, Hangover Burger #2, Cinnamon donuts |
| 8.29 |
Notes: Morning brunch, father insisted on several orders of the donuts so I’m just counting one here for the score. First meal in a while from Chef Geoff’s I struggled to finish. |
| 10/14/19 |
Ordered: Prosciutto pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 9.37 |
Notes: Good service and a solid experience all around, plus bread for the table! What’s not to love? |
| 10/7/19 |
Ordered: Prosciutto pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 9.57 |
Notes: Good company, conversation, and an ice-cold mug to complement the supermug really put this one over the top. Basket of bread for the table; maybe one of the last good days outside for the year, couldn’t have asked for much more. |
| 9/30/19 |
Ordered: Prosciutto pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 8.95 |
Notes: Safe to say my appetite’s back, that supermug and pizza were a blast. And what a gorgeous day for Chef Geoff’s all around! |
| 9/23/19 |
Ordered: Prosciutto pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 6.52 |
Notes: Beer took a while, probably would have settled for a smaller pint if it would have been that long, but the pizza hit the spot. |
| 9/9/19 |
Ordered: Prosciutto pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 7.81 |
Notes: Gave the prosciutto pizza a spin this time, and it is well worth it. Pleasant seating outside, not too crowded. |
| 8/19/19 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, pint of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 6.43 |
Notes: Service, atmosphere, and the hefty price on a single pint at happy hour left a bit to be desired this evening. Pepperoni pizza remains a key score-saver time and time again, well worth it for $10. |
| 8/12/19 |
Ordered: Chef Geoff’s burger, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 6.91 |
Notes: Back to the burger, which remains a bit pricey relative to the pizza and the quality, but good service and an enjoyable time overall. |
| 7/29/19 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 8.60 |
Notes: A bit warm, but I was the one who chose to sit outside after all. Great service all evening, and that pepperoni is perhaps one of the greatest bargains in the city. |
| 7/22/19 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos, pint of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 8.64 |
Notes: A quiet and contemplative evening at the restaurant, with bread for the table, a solid helping of beer, and a warm pizza, this is exactly the atmosphere I needed. |
| 7/15/19 |
Ordered: Double burger #16, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos, Nutella crepes |
| 7.14 |
Notes: The non-happy hour prices did put it a bit of a drain on the score here, but the off-happy hour menu Double burger #16 was absolutely worth it. As with their appetizers, their deserts are often a bit small, and the Nutella crepes definitely fell into that bucket, but all and all a beautiful day outside and I would completely recommend their special menu burgers when they’ve got them! |
| 7/8/19 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos, pint of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 8.78 |
Notes: Arrived a bit early to sit outside after a rainy day, enjoyed a supermug while reading and was then treated to complimentary bread. The pizza and beer hit the spot after a tough day at work and made for an enjoyable evening. |
| 7/1/19 |
Ordered: Pepperoni pizza, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 10.00 |
Notes: Our first perfect (or above) score; a beautiful day outside, expeditious service, and complimentary bread. This is a dining experience completely above what was paid for. Ice cold beer on a hot day, a personal pizza for only $10, this was perfect. |
| 6/24/19 |
Ordered: Chef Geoff’s burger, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 6.45 |
Notes: Though the quick time-to-seat, speedy delivery of meals, and initially upbeat and speedy service set us off on a good foot, this quickly deteriorated as the restaurant became more crowded. We were left waiting for the check for quite some time after finishing out meals; and the fries left something to be desired. The cold beer and a good burger gave us a tick up, if for an all and all a slightly below average visit. |
| 6/17/19 |
Ordered: Chef Geoff’s burger, supermug of Ommegang Rare Vos |
| 9.36 |
Notes: What a kick-off! Seated instantly, with punctual and astute service, and a quiet and casual atmosphere. The burger was well worth itself and more. In my many visits there, I am proud to have a visit as splendid as this to kick off the Chef Geoff’s Bulletin. |
