    You have to try this. Very fun and delicious. It takes a while to cook all the food but well worth it. Be prepared to spend almost three hours dining. The dessert fondue was the best!!

    Truly un-American dining in the wonderful city of Chicago. Although not directly in downtown it is easy to get there even without a car. Take bus 22 (Clark) north and get out at the Lincoln Park zoo.

    The combination dinner was so delicious. Still dreaming about the cheese fondue. Can't go wrong for a date, a special occasion, or even to just have some fondue! Come hungry and let your eyes adjust.

    Geja's is the number one rated fondue restaurant in Chicago. Their cheese fondue is to die for, but make sure to leave room for the dessert because the chocolate fondue is not to be missed. Read more

    The Fondue is fantastic, the was my favorite part. Seasoning my seafood and beef took a bit of trial and error, but I would highly recommend this place.

    This place is a great find, and they have a good Groupon deal! It's old school, romantic, dark, and delish. Good wine selection, too!

    This classic fondue restaurant is a favorite for dates. Order a bottle of wine and dip by candlelight to the sounds of a flamenco guitarist. Read more

    Make reservations if you expect to get seated. Very iffy with out reservations. Expect to spend at least $50 per person without alcohol. Food is excellent. Service very good.

    Gruyère fondue gives way to seafood, aged beef tenderloin, vegetables, or all three, which you bubble in hot oil at the table. For a sexy finish, dip fruit into a pot of flaming chocolate. Read more

    When are they going to add hot dogs to the dessert menu? When you roll them in the chocolate sauce and graham crackers, it looks just like kitty poop in a litter box.

    For people with price issues... Go to Geja's during restaurant week. $33 for salad, cheese fondue, entree fondue and chocolate fondue. You leave smelling like hot meaty oil but it's worth it

    Super cozy! The best dinner foods are scallops w/butter and potatoes with dill. Get the full meal with cheese and dessert, you will not be disappointed!

    Cheese is by far the best! Go for the cheese and chocolate, skip the main course...trust me, you'll be full.

    Be advised, after diningat this restaurant your hair, skin and clothes will smell like oil. The food is great, the ambiance is spectacular, but the air ventilation is very poor.
