For 60 years, fondue dining at Geja's Cafe has been a favorite indulgence for Chicagoans as well as out-of-towners.
“This is one of my favorite places in the city. The food is great, but the customer service is EXCEPTIONAL. Holden and Kendra have both been outstanding service staff for us, giving you the space you need to have fun but also not skipping a beat or making you wait for a drink. And Mr. Bill has a very special place in our hearts. He’s clearly the soul of the restaurant, and I hope to have as much with any part of my life as he has at work! I do want to give a very special recognition for Jeanette though. She remembered my partner and I from three months ago, and made a point to spend her time tonight asking about how we have been. Since then, we got engaged. She put the time and effort to not only send us an extra something for dessert, but took the time to cut off part of the decoration so we had the same experience as a straight couple. I literally hid my tears because I’m not from a place that we were “normal” or safe, but she made us feel celebrated. We will definitely be back soon!”
“Best Fondue, Excellent and romantic ambience. We had plain fondue first the gravure cheese and dipping unlimited fruits and vegetables than special recipe chocolate to dip fruits , excellent choice of wines. Reservations highly recommended. Excellent for birthdays for your parents, anniversary, romantic celebrations”
“This restaurant is beautiful and very cozy. I loved the decor and lighting. It’s wonderful. Great service! I got the beef tenderloin fondue dinner which came with the cheese fondue to start and the chocolate at the end. The steak was amazing. Great sauces for dipping. We loved the flames to roast our marshmallows at the end. This is a great place to celebrate! Really delicious. The whole thing took us around 2-2.5 hours. A great time! It’s very expensive (over $100 for one person with drinks).”
“I went there for a solo date and felt very comfortable and welcomed. Food was great, portions are great as well. All experience was very pleasant. I didn’t feel rushed or anything, I took my time and enjoyed the meal. Everything was fresh and good quality. Just make sure not to set up your table on fire when you burning your marshmallows (I almost did😅)! Restaurant itself very cozy. So yeah, very suitable for solo dates as well, don’t hesitate to come in if you don’t have a company!”
“Very romantic place!! From the moment you enter the atmosphere tells you this is a date night place. It was actually so dark that you had to use the candles or your phone to see the menus. All the staff was extremely kind and knowledgeable. The first course cheese dip and the third course dessert was exceptional. The second course portions were fairly small, and you had to be very careful not to under or overcook the food. Make sure you bring extra cash.... If you're on a budget like me, the check with the tip and valet parking can be a bit overwhelming. It was a great experience but next time we will go someplace where we don't have to work so hard for our dinner...lol.”
