Hands down BEST dining experience in Chicago so far! Ambience: gorgeous Music: great vibes Noise: Loud enough to still talk Service: Exceptional. Owners, Lucas, the busser, and hostess were so welcoming and on it! Food: I would give it 11 stars if I could! One of the best meals I have ever had! We got the Tortellino - omg… Rock Shrimp - fantastic. NY Strip - I don’t have words. I usually love filet mignon, this was the best steak I’ve had in the city. Portions were in the smaller side but just right. Highly recommend!!! Excited to go back! Thank you for a great experience! 🙏🏼
One of the best openings in Chicagoan a while. The portions exceeded my expectations, the staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and patient, and the drink menu was extensive. You can’t go wrong with the hand roll options and we loved the celery and black truffle tortelli. Looking forward to their reopening
Such a beautiful place, excellent service and incredible dishes with amazing flavors … A journey of the palate and senses.
Food, Drinks, Service, Atmosphere are a 10/10. Highly recommend the oysters and wagyu.
Gingie is absolutely stunning. The space is warm, bright, and beautifully designed. The food is just as impressive. Highlights for our table were the wagyu ribeye, tortelli, and the key lime dessert. Our server Erin was bubbly, entertaining, and made great recommendations. So excited for this new addition. Can’t wait to visit again!
