About us

We’re George and Liz Ruiz. We opened Georgie’s on South Clinton Avenue, in the Highland Park neighborhood, in 2005.

We bake Italian and French bread every day, with our own rolls, Spanish pastries and cookies. On Saturdays we cook Puerto Rican food from Grandma Carmen Ruiz’s recipes, until it’s gone.

Four generations of our family work here.
