    Food was really good which is why we made an exception for it being like warm. The server was nice but missed moments on refills in a timely manner, food being like warm, and he came the point where we were already into the meal to say anything because we were hungry. Would return in hopes of a better experience because the aesthetic and food were top notch.

    Great food and great service. We especially enjoyed the grilled octopus, hummus with beets, and fried zucchini and eggplant. The favorite main was the halibut

    We celebrated our wedding anniversary at City Gate Grille in Naperville, and it was such a great experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the live jazz music added something really special to the evening. The food was delicious, and everything came out on time, which we really appreciated. Our server was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was the perfect place to enjoy a great meal while listening to live jazz. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate our special day. Highly recommend City Gate Grille for any occasion!

    This was our second time here and it was as enjoyable as our first. Such a cute (not cookie cutter or chain) little restaurant tucked into an out-of-the-way area, very good homemade food, attentive service. Caroline made our service experience a great one.
