Out first time to Gibson’s. Was greeted right away and with our reservation we were seated immediately with the patrons in front of us having a walk in 2 hr wait. Our waiter was AMAZING- apparently he is called the “Legend of Rosemont”. He was attentive, professional and went along with multiple husbands humor. We both ordered the different sized filets and were cooked to perfection! The Crème Brûlée was perfect! Overall a great first experience at Gibson’s!

Absolutely magnificent lunch. Delicious house made pate appetizer. Creamy melt in your mouth quiche with a bounty of salad that could have made a meal in itself. Make sure you save room for the chocolate pate dessert. This is the type of restaurant you wish you had in your own neighborhood so you could go there often. Even though it was a 30 minute ride from me, I’ll be back.
