The atmosphere is incredible, with low romantic lighting!!! The cheese combined with the bread & fruits is perfect!! Our waiter was nice and explained the menu to us. Unforgettable!! more

Who decided deep-frying your own food at the table was romantic?! My husband and I went there for our one-year dating anniversary. We were sweating trying to cook our food, kept losing stuff in the pot, and got splattered with hot oil. NOT romantic!! more

Overrated, Overpriced, the food comes out raw from the kitchen and you cook it yourself, in the boiling oil. Also the food is served in plastic 'shot glass' style containers. At these prices, how about some porcelain or glass ramekins? more

When travelling to Chicago, my husband and I typically dine at Gejas. It is by far the best restaurant for fondue, easily surpassing other Chicago fondue destinations The Melting Pot and Fondue Stube. Reservations are a must, so plan ahead. A meal can easily cost close to $100 per couple (more if wine or liquor is ordered), but the cost... more
