Genevieve's

What a great place to eat before a show at the Peace Center!We had tickets to the Nutcracker, so I made reservations to eat here beforehand. The ambiance and view was wonderful, and we were seated immediately. The bar offered a variety of good liquors, wines, beers, and cocktails so I enjoyed my favorite scotch. We started with a nice charcuterie board that had a tasty assortment. My wife then had a salad and I went with the minestrone. For entrees she ordered the beef stew while I enjoyed their unique twist on shrimp and grits. A savory blend of tasty and some sweetness. Grapes! Seemed weird originally, but it works. The best aspect of the night was that the show has a planned intermission, so we ordered our cheesecake and opera cake desserts with some hot teas to be at our reserved table so we could have these refreshments during the 20 minute break. We went into the beautiful theatre, watched the first half of the ballet, then came back to the restaurant to find our desserts and tea sitting there waiting for us! We were able to enjoy this repast, then be comfortably back in our seats before the show resumed. Service was excellent, and this was a fantastic way to celebrate the Christmas Season. We will be back whenever we see a show.

Usually I love the food and the atmosphere. Great place to have drinks and food before a show. I just want people to know that the lobster Mac n cheese has no cheese. It has TONS of lobster but is advertised as Mac n cheese which it is not. Also, are you a chocolate lover? The dark chocolate mousse torte is outstanding! Drinks are pricey but for those of us who don't get out much, we don't mind.

Food was lacking in flavor and heating. Service was chaotic. We had a 6p reservation. Opened at 5:30, only a few other tables filled at the time.We ordered a charcuterie board to start and there was barely enough on there for two of us. Advertised house made pickles, none. The nuts were really stale. Very disappointed with it.Ordered a wine and a cocktail. Received the cocktail, but wine didn't show up until I asked about it, then received it after some time.For our meal we ordered the wine-braised short ribs and the Mushroom Ragout with chicken breast. Received dinner quite quickly, but I think they forgot to warm it up. Our food was warm to cold. Didn't receive the chicken with the Ragout. Let the server know, she went back and retrieved it. Disappointed when it was an oversized Cornish game hen leg...not chicken breast, which meant 3/4 of it was bone.Overall just really disappointed. We traveled over 2 hours for a mini-vacation and this experience just dashed it all.I would not recommend eating at Genevieve's. Your money is better spent elsewhere.

We stopped here for dinner as the location makes it very easy to get to your show on time, and previous visits have been very nice. I will say the staff and our server were all very pleasant and kind. First up ordered the hummus with "warm pita" as an appetizer, with chicken corn chowder and lobster roll for entrees. My husband's chowder came out with the hummus, we figured maybe the lobster roll takes a bit more time... pita bread was cold and stale. My husband did enjoy his chowder. After asking twice about my entree it finally came out 40 minutes later. And there were about 6 small pieces of meat on the roll. It was tasty though. I was quite disappointed with the very limited menu. We've decided next show we'll likely eat at another restaurant.

Scenic location and comfortable environment. But very limited menu. Food fair to good. Service lacking but we are still dealing with the aftermath of COVID so I will cut them some slack. Our waiter was pleasant and helpful and seemed to know his kitchen. Major attraction here is getting parked downtown and being in the theatre complex. (Location, location.) Most appealing in bad weather.

Absolutely WORST dining experience I have ever had. Unimpressive. After asking for my check and sharing multiple frustrations including waiting 45 minutes for both water and dessert, the server stated to us, "I just work here." Terrible service and mediocre food.

I already felt so fancy attending a Peace Center musical in my cocktail dress but visiting Genevieve's before the show for an appetizer and drinks made the evening even more special! You can make a free dinner reservation via their website if you are attending a show. If you just want to experience Genevieve's, I think you can just walk-in; there were plenty of tables available even immediately prior to the show. My favorite part is that your table is reserved for intermission AND you can pre-order drinks/food so that you're not scrambling to make it back on time for the second half of the show. I was delighted to see my Dark and Stormy cocktail on the table waiting for me during intermission!The view is also fantastic! You can see the TD stage, the Reedy river and the bustling downtown from their floor to ceiling windows. Their drinks menu includes a full bar with a variety of cocktails, wine and draft beers. Their food menu consists of mainly appetizers/tapas so smaller in size but still delicious. The options are limited in terms of food but I wasn't expecting to see a complete restaurant menu.

Booked this place just so we could have drinks and dessert ready for intermission. The drinks were amazing, ambience was perfect, and the food was really good! We had the scallop salad, fried green tomatoes and Korean beef skewers. For intermission we had espresso martinis, choc cake and bread pudding. Perfect for two , not super heavy right before a show. Service was excellent. Will return!

Great location if you see a show at the Peace Center, you can get reservations for an hour early have snacks and a drink, and then go straight over to the show

Very disappointed in the menu selection as many of the items have been removed from the menu...And while this IS a great spot for drinks before , and during the show at intermission, you would do well to plan on eating a meal elsewhere before the show. It would be much more affordable and you wont leave broke and hungry
