For over 59 years, fondue dining at Geja’s Café has been a favorite indulgence for Chicagoans as well as out-of-towners. It’s a perfect way to kindle romance, celebrate a special occasion or simply join family and friends for a fun and unforgettable dining experience.
To start we offer a Swiss Gruyere cheese fondue, served with fresh breads, fruits and vegetables for dipping. Our crisp house salad, dressed with tangy Dijon vinaigrette, offers a counterpoint to the rich, warm cheese fondue appetizer.
Next, you’ll cook your choices of Australian lobster tail, Gulf shrimp, beef tenderloin, fresh sea scallops or boneless chicken breast in a pot of sizzling soybean oil or broth. The main course is served with fresh vegetables and eight gourmet dipping sauces.
Our famous chocolate fondue is flamed table-side, and presented with marshmallows for roasting and other delectable dippers.

A 4 % operational fee is added to all checks to work in concert with Chicago's One Fair Wage Ordinance.

    It was great, the chocolate was warm but after flame went out underneath, no one restarted, we paid 150$ for Belgium chocolate fondue that was warm for 20 minutes and server didn’t care to restart or replace the candle warmers underneath the chocolate. Otherwise, the romantic vibes were spectacular

    The overall ambiance was great, very romantic. The service was great. However, the food that you get for the price you pay is not worth it.

    We go every year for Valentine’s Day and we always have a great experience. The service, atmosphere and food are all wonderful. It’s a cozy and romantic spot for couples and also a good time for friends.
