About this restaurant

Great for outdoor dining
Good for special occasions
Great for happy hour

Located on the historic Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, CO, Gemini is a full service restaurant focused on contemporary Spanish food and wine and its international influences.

The menu is guided by the seasons and highlights sustainably farmed meats and produce from Colorado purveyors. Taking cues from the cuisines of Barcelona and San Sebastian, we offer traditional tapas items, including Patatas Bravas, Pan con Tomate, meatballs, and Boquerones. Larger dishes from land and sea include Octopus, Cauliflower a la Plancha, and Basque Braised Lamb.

Our beverage program features organic, low-intervention wines from Spain and the West Coast, classic cocktails, and selections from Colorado’s craft brewing community.

The menu looked promising as did the happy hour deals. But it turned out disappointing. Service was dreadful; long waits, dirty dishes left on our table much too long, nobody offering another drink, etc. Food was mostly mediocre with several dishes ruined by overcooking. To their credit, a manager apologized about one entree and took it off the bill. But with so many good restaurants in Boulder, I regretted choosing this one for an important family reunion.

Good vibes, amazing food. We got the bacon wrapped dates and they were absolutely phenomenal. Managed to get an outdoor table on a beautiful evening. Expensive, but you get what you pay for - it was delicious.

Had a wonderful meal outside on the Boulder Pearl Street Mall. The food was amazing, spare ribs were out of this world. Octopus was cooked perfectly, not rubbery like so many places. The wait staff was attentive and friendly. A beautiful night with my wife...will be back again soon!

Our table was ready (with a reservation) right when we arrived. The staff is friendly, the location is great on the Pearl Street Mall, and the food is top notch. If you've never tried octopus, this is the place to do it!

I know that sound proofing for a less noisy experience is an option for all restaurants and am always confused when they don’t make the choice to do it. Food and service were great. Feel like I will have to wear earplugs and refrain from trying to converse with my guests in the future.

The food was delicious and beautifully presented. We had the snapper crudo, mushrooms, baked goat cheese, and paella- with the most perfect texture! While our server was nice, she had no knowledge to share about the wines. I don’t fault her, this seems the responsibility of management to train their staff in what is known as the true moneymaker of restaurants.
