The Gage

My husband and I went there for the New Year Eve dinner. The reception and the food were both pretty good, but there was no service until we were seated for half an hour. I loved the baked French cheese so much!! At the end, the passion fruit cake dessert disappointed us because the pastry team forgot to add some crackers/chips to my dish, which was a component listed on the menu (I was supposed to get it). Since all other customers who ordered this dessert got it, I asked my server what happened, and it took about 10 mins for them to get back to me. They said it's no big deal, "it's just missing the crackers on top." It was funny that the person who downplayed the issue was not me, but the server lol. I didn't get any apologies, and there was no compensation. Not the best experience to celebrate the end of a year, especially regarding the fact that the price was $120 per person, which was about the same as some Michelin-stared restaurants. I am attaching the pictures I took at the dinner - the restaurant team would know that I was not lying upon seeing them.

Our party of 4 was seated in the covered outdoor area, as it was packed in the dining room.. they're doing well!

We all had burgers, 2 classic 2 venison, and they were fantastic!! Fries were very nicely cooked, crunchy.

Excellent food and good service. Will return for burgers.

Highly recommended

I love their Duck Poutine and Creme Brulee. Cocktails too; I ordered a 75 Tokyo. Actually, I love everything about the Gage down to the smallest detail. They definitely deserve that Michelin star.
My waitress was Crystal. She's a sweet and easygoing lady. I hope she serves me again next time I go!

Always a pleasure. Great service. Outstanding fish and Wedge salad. Burgers are always delicious. Much enjoy the Hefeweizen and proper Guinness

We walked in off the street while on a one-day trip to Chicago to celebrate our Anniversary. Had no idea we were going to be treated to such a great meal, service, and atmosphere. Friendly staff that know how to read a table. The staff exuded pride in the establishment and their work.

The building is stunning and the decor is rich and warm. The heated patio was perfect for brunch. Location is absolutely prime!

I ordered medium-rare steak with my brunch which did come out a bit too medium for my preference. I do not mention this as a complaint... more of a tip for you rare steak lovers out there! It remained tender and juicy and I enjoyed it despite the temperature.

We recommend the Duck Poutine. 👌 👍 Fantastic coffee.

Elevated pub food and lively atmosphere. I really enjoyed the bison tartare but the bread it came with was a bit too heavy for my likes. The curry was super tasty although had a disproportionate amount of potatoes compared to other veggies. The prawns were super fresh and well cooked. The rice was a bit bland. Service was attentive and very quick.

Ivan was our server and host. He did a great job communicating the food items and service was spot on!

My wife has a salt issue and cannot have cannot have much salt as it is a medical issue. It's always a challenge to find a restaurant who can accommodate her. The restaurant was fully packed Saturday night during taste of Chicago. You could tell they were struggling as they probably didn't plan on having a full house as they did.

Lisa's fish came out with salt accidentally. Michael didn't hesitate to make things right and really impressed us. It was our first time here we will definitely come back.

It is a beautiful cozy restaurant with amazing food and specialty drinks.

Thanks Michael and Ivan!

Great menu! Really enjoyed the salad and the burger. Wine and cocktail options are also quite good. The cauliflower steak deserves a special shout out… my wife loves it and it is so good!
