6 months agoWe had a wonderful Valentines dinner at Gees. The food was wonderful and atmosphere perfect for a date. The specials of the evening were really great as well! If we're ever in Oxford again we will dine here again.

4 weeks agoBelieve it or not, I’ve had my eye on going to Gees for 6 years, since I first came to Oxford for my undergrad in 2019! Yesterday, I went for the first time to celebrate my birthday. The ambience has always looked lovely, and that lived up to expectations. The staff were also very kind, professional, and attentive. Unfortunately, and I actually feel a bit for saying this, but the food was just really bad… Two on my table ordered the gnocchi, which was genuinely awful: it was in every respect just like eating mashed potatoes, without flavour or texture. Two of us had different spaghetti dishes, which were fine, but nothing different to what you could make at home in 20 minutes. A couple of us, myself included, are actually ill today with a bad stomach. The common trait is that we all had the crab for starter and are unwell today, but that could just be a coincidence. The steaks were very average, at best. Overall, after a long time wanting to go, I left feeling pretty disappointed, and that’s a shame. Again, I’d like to reiterate that the staff were great, and the cocktails were also really nice. It’s just the food! Maybe I came on a bad day, who knows.

6 months agoThis restaurant was overpriced as the food in terms of taste and presentation are not up to the standard of theat price paid. The Today’s fish £28.50, Pork Belly £25.35, burger £20.50. Atmosphere is too dark and too small for the two person round table. The issue matters us is the service is disappointing where we were stopped by a waitress when we were walking out of the restaurant, as she forgot to charge us an extra bottle of water in our bill we had paid at £121 and asked us to top up extra £5 ish with another bill printed out separately (we didn’t order any extra bottle of water at all).
