Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Humboldt Park

The experience was out of this world. Understandably my boyfriend and I weren’t able to get a reservation for Valentine’s Day so we set one for the day after. We were seated quickly in a cozy booth in a beautifully decorated room. We started with the oysters - the mignonette was delightful! We also shared the steak tartare which we were a little intimidated by at first but really enjoyed. Before dinner I had the professional martini and it really was the perfect drink, followed by their Robert Pampignac Brut with dinner - my boyfriend usually only drinks beer and he said it was unreal! For the main course my boyfriend ordered the venison burger and I ordered the scallops. Both of us were wowed by the quality and flavors of our entrees, everything was perfectly cooked! Our server Iryna was friendly and attentive, she has waited on me in the past and it was such a treat to be served by her again. The Gage has become our favorite restaurant. We can’t wait to visit again!

Great experience overall! I had a Valentines date with my wife here and we enjoyed the food.

We visited on Valentine’s Day and were delighted to find a 4-course tasting menu with optional wine pairings. Every dish was delectable! Our server, Anna, was incredibly warm and welcoming. We had a fantastic evening and will definitely be returning.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. always a must stop when i’m in Chicago!! The filet sliders are so good. Drinks are fantastic! Our server Alycia was super nice, she rocks! ASK FOR ALYCIA!!! Will be back soon!

Service was outstanding, especially considering our reservation was at 9pm and the staff was working the dinner service for many hours. Unbelievably service oriented. Food was exceptional, as always. The place was packed, and as a result the decibel level was high. It was expensive, but we really enjoyed being taken care of on the night before Valentine’s Day.
