Gemma

Baked Eggs with Tomato & Avocado

Eggs baked in a rich tomato sauce with fresh avocado — the brunch dish that put Gemma on the map

Wood-fired pizza

Thin-crust pies with a properly blistered, charred edge from the wood-burning oven — the margherita and seasonal variations are consistently praised for their balance of sauce and char.

Cacio e Pepe

Classic Roman pasta with sharp pecorino and cracked black pepper — simple and well-executed

House-made pasta

Rotating house pasta dishes that represent the kitchen's most consistent and technically accomplished work — rich, properly sauced, and made with evident care.

Antipasti selection

A rotating spread of Italian starters — cured meats, roasted vegetables, and seasonal preparations — that make for a strong opening to the meal.

Burrata

Impossibly fresh burrata served simply — creamy, rich, and a perfect starter to share

Cocktails

A well-curated cocktail list that complements the Italian menu and suits the lively bar atmosphere — a reliable way to start the evening.

Grilled Hanger Steak

Hanger steak with black pepper sauce and Sicilian tomato salad — beefy, peppery, satisfying

Desserts

Italian-leaning desserts that are competent but rarely the highlight of the meal — fine to share, but not a reason to visit on their own.

Prosciutto Pizza

Wood-fired pizza topped with thin-sliced prosciutto — a crowd favorite

Grilled Salmon

Salmon filet with zucchini and Italian salsa verde — light, bright, well-cooked

Tuna Tartare

Fresh tuna tartare — a clean, elegant starter

Spinach Omelet
