We couldn't have been happier choosing Gemma for our dinner spot. The service, food, ambiance and overall experience was outstanding. We are very picky about where we eat for dinner when we go out and this was a treat! We will definitely eat there again and bring the rest of the family. We will also recommend it to our friends. This restaurant is a keeper!

Top notch service. Gorgeous interior- feels like stepping into a fancy Mexico City spot. Tasty cocktails - we had skinny margaritas and top shelf , both delicious and came with an abundance of limes as requested. Queso tastes homemade, unlike at many other Mexican restaurants and it was served with hot, pleasantly thick chips. Not to be missed is the specialty filet mignon fajitas. We absolutely love them and will come back for them again and again!

    I took my fiancé here for her birthday and it was by far the best experiences ever. Let me preface this I've been to Nick and Sam's al biernats north Dakota steakhouse etc. This was the best better than the one mentioned before. From the waiter to the food runners and the other guest around us. Everyone was great food was so good very good price and the plating of the items was very elegant. I will definitely be returning.

    Stopped here on a recommendation. Wasn't disappointed - at all. Stellar lunch with excellent food (had the redfish with sauteed spinach on rice) well tended to by Mario (Marco?) waiter and will definitely be back. My only beef is the parking here is "difficult" to say the least. Be prepared to park remotely and hike to the restaurant. I had to park on a side street it was a five minute walk so no big deal.
