About:The Gage is a 3-star rated restaurant located across from Millennium Park in a historically landmarked building built in the late 1800s. The Gage offers upscale, yet casual dining in a vintage atmosphere inspired by the gastropubs of Ireland and England. At The Gage, you'll experience the innovative, passionately cooked cuisine of acclaimed chef Dirk Flanigan, formerly of Meritage and Blue Water Grill. Time Out has said The Gage's menu "covers every craving" and includes Scotch eggs, crispy chicken livers, locally made sausages, burgers, steaks, salads and Guinness-battered fish and chips. The Libations list features craft beers, interesting wines and a selection of Irish whiskeys and single malts. Open for dinner at 4 everyday, The Gage is also open for lunch at 11 and brunch Saturday and Sunday at 10.

    Went there for lunch today, was told a few minutes for a table for three......45 minute later i just left...to go back to the office to work, no lunch....what a waste. I have been there a few times and have NEVER gotten a good vibe, that was the last straw. An arrogant waste of time. I HIGHLY SUGGEST BENNEGANS or SUBWAY over this place.....ANYTIME.

    Oh yea...and Layla must work there.

    I went to the Gage for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. It was a busy time to go, so I figured it would be a good test of service. My party of 2 was told that the wait would be about 20-30 minutes. The communication between the hostess and the person seating the parties was poor at best and explains why it took us about 50 minutes to get seated. We were more than upset when we finally got a table. The food ended up being good, but combined with slow and inattentive service, it was not enough to make up for the whole experience. I would recommend going at a slow time so that you can enjoy the food--the beet salad I ordered was delicious.
