About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
For over 60 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.

    We had an excellent dinner at Geja. The service was outstanding and the food was excellent. We’re already adding it to our list when we come back to Chicago.

    Mid-week is a great time to dine at Geja’s. Everyone was knowledgeable and very attentive (especially Kendra) and asked of special needs (allergies). Though the prices have risen, the portions were plentiful and delicious. Hope to get a seething in the garden on our next visit-well worth it!

    Just like the half dozen other occasions we’ve experienced at Geja’s, it was excellent. From the ambiance to the fondue of all three types, it never fails to live up to previous great visits. The addition of churros to the dessert choices was a pleasant option. We can’t wait to come back in the near future.
