We love Gem City. It's been a go to forever for us. It never changes and the food and service are always amazing. Highly recommend. And their specials are even better.

Their salsa is the best! They have great pizza and Mexican food. The margaritas are very tasty. The staff is always friendly. They do get busy and there may be a wait but it’s worth it. Parking can sometimes be a challenge but there is parking across the street that makes up for the limited space at the restaurant.
