The food truck biz must be going well for pioneer Matt Maroni, who opened his second restaurant in August 2011. He's best known for Gaztro-wagon as a food truck and brick-and-mortar operation, so we're certain this will take off as well.

The food was to die for! We dined in tonight and enjoyed the beef tenderloin as well as the seafood mix. A taste of everything. I was here for the holidays and had no idea what to expect taking my girlfriend to Geja’s. The fondue and the chocolate fondue was absolutely to die for. We ate as much we could and had an amazing dining experience with our server Gary. 10/10 would recommend coming here again with Gary taking care of us.

Went here for a date night since I kept seeing this restaurant listed as one of the top restaurants to go to for a romantic date night. Had a nice table outdoors and had the best experience. We’ve gone to fondue restaurants before and usually they have small portions. You’re left here feeling full and satisfied. Our waiter Gary was so nice! He gave excellent recommendations and even convinced me that grapes and cheese go well together. He made excellent conversation and made our date night enjoyable. The ambience is so nice here and the food was amazing of course. Would definitely recommend the drinks! The autumn fizz and the royale were so yummy!

Eating at Geja’s cafe was an experience I won’t soon forget. I’ve in had fondue only once before. About 15 years ago I made it at home with my the girl friend, and now wife. I have to admit that I was a laborious experience and one I have not attempted since. However, our meal at Gaia’s Cafe was so much a fun and with delicious food. First, the atmosphere and experience was amazing. This is called Chicago’s most restaurant for a reason. The lighting it low with red overtones. This creates a intimate experience. It no wonder multiple wedding proposals are made here on a weekly basis. Second the food quality is very good. If you believe they would skip on good food because focus is on the atmosphere, you are wrong. The cheese for the fondue was very flavorful and yummy. Also, the beef tenderloin, shrimp and veggies were high quality and fresh. Third, service is amazing. Our waiter was friendly and had great suggestions for how to cook the the food in the oil. Also, they are very attentive and cleared the table efficiently. It also says something that the bartender we had has been there for 20 years and the owner worked there for 30 years before buying the restaurant. My wife and I were here for one of their wine events. The event feature wine pairings from two wineries in the same region of California. Geja’s had representatives from each winery at the event. It was fascinating hearing details about each winery, how their wine was made and how the region of made their wines special. We also had an opportunity to buy some wine which is not available locally. Over all this was an experience with great food and fun. It is must for date night or if you just love cheese, meat and wine.

One of my FAVORITE restaurants I’ve ever been to!! My boyfriend and I loved the dining experience so much, that we decided to try the take home kabob kit to enjoy. We got the sangrias to start, all 4 kabob varieties (beef, chicken, veggie and shrimp), fingerling potatoes and Mac n cheese on the side, cheese fondue with dippables, and my favorite, the Belgian chocolate fondue with sweets and fruits to dip! P.s. their sauces are all homemade and seriously my favorite!!! It was something that needed to be cooked and reheated so it doesn’t come ready to eat as a heads up, but this was so much fun to share with our friends and a great idea for a night in! Of course if you ever can, make sure to dine in as well 🥰
