Oh good God.

Chef Geoff has decided to open another tired, overcrowded, mediocre, overpriced restaurant - this time in Tyson's Corner. Though, honestly it seems like if you're going to open another tired, overcrowded, mediocre, overpriced restaurant, Tysons Corner is the place to do it...

In my opinion, Chef Geoff's has one thing going for it - happy hour. At certain times of the week, there are respectable drink specials and decent prices on a giganto burger. After all, what better to ply crowds to a bar in Tysons, with no current viable public transportation options, than giganto mugs of low-priced alcohol...

Not to hate on Chef Geoff, he seems like a nice guy who does a lot for the community. But I have not once sat down at either his downtown restaurant or Lia's in Chevy Chase and had a satisfactory experience. I'm not looking for Citronelle here, just a decent meal with decent service.

Until he can get those issues taken care of, I'd suggest Cheof Geoff focus on existing properties rather than opening new ones.
