    One meal was inedible. It was deducted from invoice. After that what had been good service deteriorated. We were cut off from drinks after cocktails and one glass of wine. We were definitely not impaired. We were celebrating a double birthday. Obviously they wanted us to leave due to booking schedules and the bad dinner. No birthday recognition or complementary dessert. We decided to stay an extra 46 minutes and drink water. Beautiful views and wonderful menu.

    Absolutely loved my experience at Gibsons Italia! The atmosphere was fantastic, and the service was truly top-notch – attentive and friendly without being overbearing. The octopus was a definite highlight, cooked to perfection and incredibly flavorful. And you absolutely have to save room for dessert – SBA - absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!

    So we were recommended Gibsons by a couple people. We saved it for our last night in the city and man were we disappointed. The food mad MEH. Worst sea bass I’ve ever had. The pasta were luke warm (not hot at all). The waiter seemed like he did not want to be there. It was so loud you could barely hear the person right next to you speaking. I will say, it did have a great view. But if you are wanting GOOD food. Save your money and go to Bavettes, Sunda, or Ciccio mio!

    This was our first time and the experience was amazing. The food was beyond delicious. The Sea Bass and Chicago Cut Steak were cooked to perfection. The twice baked potatoes were to die for. Christian our waiter was so accommodating as well as the entire wait staff and managers. Lastly our view of the Chicago River was excellent and so romantic. We will definitely be back !!!

    Our server, Moses, was knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He had lots of recommendations and we loved the arancini, charred broccolini salad, and the bone in filet!

    Despite making the reservation pre than a month ahead of time, we were seated on the first floor with 2 of our guests backed up against the noosy bar. Service rushed us through the first half of our meal until we affirmatively asked them to slow down. Food was well flavored and perfectly prepared.
