Loved the new crab cake Benedict, definitely a new staple on the menu! Lox bagel was amazing too along with fruit bowl and bottomless brunch

Went for restaurant week and the food was pretty good. The club and truffle fries were yummy and the coffee cake was nice and crunchy.

Restaurant week was a fantastic deal! 4 courses of delicious food and I walked away absolutely stuffed. Pork chops was a little dry but still had incredible flavor. The Pain killer drink was refreshing.

My pre-review is below and my food review from 12/27/24 is here: Thanks to Sydney, Christy (Kristy?), Luca, and Team Kitchen for a lovely evening! The food was delish' & beautifully plated. The service was top notch. One could not ask for more. I thank the entire team for their significant effort and kindness from start to finish. I ate the pork chop (grilled to a perfect medium-rare)! Others enjoyed the chicken, steak frites, and burgers. All simply fantastic! We finished w the desert cookie and crème brûlée, both are must-save-room-for! The ambiance and environment was upbeat and positive, the lighting was just enough, and the entire evening was just delightful. I highly recommend Gemini, you won't be disappointed! I wrote the below on or about 12/15: While I can't speak to the meal or the restaurant as we aren't scheduled to visit until next week, I did want to recognize and thank Luca for his prompt call back and assistance in finalizing the details for a large group. Yes, of course, it is his "job" BUT he was more than helpful, kind, and empathetic trying to help us split tables, arrive earlier etc. Gosh, if this is Gemini's pre-service, I can't wait to arrive, dine, and experience the atmosphere! Thank you, Patrick Shaughnessy Chicago, IL

Had a wonderful birthday dinner at Gemini. The service was great and our waiter was very helpful with any questions we had on the menu. I also appreciate that they will customize your menu with your name for a special occasion. We got the crispy brussel sprouts, warmer Parker house rolls, burrata crostini, Berkshire pork chop and the Gemini burger. The burger was good but not sure why there was so much hype on it.

Can I make the crazy argument that these are the best processes sprouts in the city of Chicago? They are perfectly crispy without being burnt, salty and seasoned and not greasy. I would come back here every week just to eat these. Gemini is the perfect place to go with your parents or on a date or with someone from out of town because the food is consistently fresh and elegant. They have an excellent patio and it's on the perfect street in Lincoln Park. The service is always on par and what can I say I love this restaurant group ???

My daughter had dined at Gemini during Restaurant Week and suggested we check it out when I was in town this weekend. There is something cool about the restaurant's location and triangular shape. And when you open the door, you can feel the energy of the dining room. To me, that's always a good sign that diners are having a great time. When we arrived at 7pm, we were promptly escorted to our table in the dining room. It was only after dinner that I became aware of the massive outdoor dining space next to the building. It easily has way more seats than the main building. We ordered a round of cocktails and ordered the Warm Parker House Rolls and the Steamed P.E.I Mussels cooked in white wine for starters. Both were delish. My daughter ordered the Roasted 1/2 Chicken assuming it was prepared like her first time during Restaurant Week. She was disappointed to see the recipe had changed. Not the cooking of the chicken, but the vegetable broth it was served with. She told me she was so wowed with the original recipe that she told her server to thank the Chef. I ordered the Ahi Tuna Tataki and loved the flavor and rare presentation. The crispy sushi rice, along with mango and avocado made a tasty dish. For $39, I just wished the serving size was larger. Because I was unsure how large the ahi portion would be, the Truffle-Parmesan Fries were a perfect complement. The Aioli dipping sauce was excellent.

Everything was great! We were running late so I called and they were very accommodating. Our waitress was great and even offered complimentary bubbly while my mom waited for me to park. More kids in the restaurant than I would've expected. The rolls were soft and warm with a little salt on top. The mushroom risotto was yummy and creamy with some chunks of mushroom that were really good. The brussel sprouts were a little crunchy, but still really good with the bacon!

A nice location with very good food, though not at the low end of the price scale. We tried some appetizers too and the Ahi Tuna was outstanding (better than the prosciutto and burrata crostini which was ok) Their mushroom risotto is outstanding- though they could work on the look Also the steak And burger were great ! I need to mention that the food comes hot (which is a great thing !!) The service was nice and attentive, just while two plates were being worked on, don't ask about dessert or if we want something else. I strongly dislike being rushed !(and this removed the 5th star) All in all a great location with very good food !
