The Gage

Our booth was very dark. We needed to use the flashlight function on our phones to read the menus. I have eaten at The Gage many times and continue to return.

Wonderful service. Very welcoming and accommodating. Amazing food

My husband and I went for our 1 year anniversary. Our waitress was very nice. We were given a complementary glass of champagne each and a free slice of cheesecake, which was much appreciated.

I would not only recommend The Gage, better yet, I would go again. The only problem was the darkness of our table, which made it impossible to read the menu. One tiny candle was not enough for reading two menus written on tiny print. We ordered oysters, that were very fresh. The steamed mussels were so abundant that fed both of us. They were delicious. The desserts were also excellent, especially the chocolate-hazelnut tart.

Really good brunch in a fantastic location with good friends. I had the hash and a warm cider toddy that was sublime. It was busy and lively but we were never rushed- I would definitely like to return next time we’re in town to try another meal menu.

Great server!!

The Gage offered a excellent atmosphere and experience. The bar was absolutely beautiful and the waitstaff looked trendy and professional. Paul our server went above and beyond our service expectations. The entire staff shows that they care about their customers. His extensive knowledge with the drink and food menu was impressive! He was truly the best waiter we had experienced our entire 4 day weekend in downtown Chicago! I will Highly recommend the Gage and ask for Paul!

Our waiter was wonderful, drinks and food was perfect!

Great food and service at reasonable downtown Chicago prices.

Great Food - Perfect Pace. Cool place. We loved it.

Great dinner and excellent service. The cocktails were fun and interesting and dinner was delicious. Our waiter recommended an order of green beans for the table and they were the perfect addition to our spare ribs and chicken curry. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a nice evening out.

Great food, drinks and service!

Wonder experience! Staff is great very friendly and knowledgeable. Food was delicious!!

Valentine’s Day

Ok spot. Not the total best as a first time guest, however, the ambiance is amazing. Had to send food back twice with no comp.

The menu reads so beautifully that we thought the description of the food must be exaggerated. No so. Better than described. Can't wait to go again.

I was very impressed at the quality of service and how attentive the wait staff were on a very busy Valentine's Day dinner.

Great greeting, seating, service and food. The Gage team provides a high level of professional service and we had a very enjoyable dinner.

Our waitress was AMAZING!!! I love the experience, the food and the playlist was awesome!

Best server we’ve had in Chicago! Made our day! Thank you!

My Birthday dinner

Dinner before the ballet.

The Gage was a wonderful experience! We tried them during Restaurant Week for breakfast and we loved every minute of it. The drinks, food and staff were fantastic! Our breakfast experience was positively enhanced, can't wait to go back!

Cauliflower soup was excellent. Monte Cristo sandwich was very good. Hazelnut coffeecake was dry..old?? Not delicious. Service was great!

Our service was very slow. 2 of us were happy with our food and 2 of us were very disappointed. It's a nice comfortable atmosphere.

Delicious meals, great wine - just a little noisy from the basketball game at the bar. A little reminder about the split identity of the place- fine dining and bar.

Sat at the bar - great cocktails and food!

Had a great brunch on a Saturday for 6. The staff was very attentive. We all thought it was a pretty place with a good price point. Most of us were very happy with our breakfast cocktails and drinks, and our main dishes. Great location and I’d recommend!

I have always had a great meal at the Gage and this time was no different. Love to sit away from the bar area as it is quieter and the new section next to the kitchen is so cozy with the fireplace and new wall to make it more intimate.

Great gastropub food, always impeccably prepared. Lively atmosphere. Friendly but professional staff. Been coming here since it opened; seems like it's pricier now and I was disappointed to see that the booths in back by the kitchen have been replaced with ordinarily tables. Still, it's wonderful place and I recommend it without reservation.

My best friend and I have been friends for 50 years. We met when we were in the 6th grade.

We just came from a yoga class and came to The Gage for supper. The management looked at my note from opentable and saw we were celebrating 50 years of friendship. She was so kind and congratulatory. I mean, who celebrates 50 years of friendship anymore? She treated us with a fruity drink with a mint leaf. Sounds like Brambuoi(sp?). It was delicious. My friend liked it so much, she ordered another one. Enjoyable evening with good food, good conversations and of course, happy milestone for me and my friend!
