Located on the historic Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, CO, Gemini is a full service restaurant focused on contemporary Spanish food and wine and its international influences.

The menu is guided by the seasons and highlights sustainably farmed meats and produce from Colorado purveyors. Taking cues from the cuisines of Barcelona and San Sebastian, we offer traditional tapas items, including Patatas Bravas, Pan con Tomate, meatballs, and Boquerones. Larger dishes from land and sea include Octopus, Cauliflower a la Plancha, and Basque Braised Lamb.

Our beverage program features organic, low-intervention wines from Spain and the West Coast, classic cocktails, and selections from Colorado’s craft brewing community.

    Definitely a different take on tapas - not very authentic. The olives not necessarily Spanish - even some kalamatas thrown in. The Spanish Tortilla was more like an omelette with potatoes in it. Grilled octopus, while tasty, came in big chunks rather than tentacles in aioli. I appreciate creative flare, but there's something to be said for authenticity.

    Great service, with great food, the only complaint i would have is some of the Tapas were a little smaller than expected. even to "share" as 2 people we were expecting a little more. i think the chicken skewers were $13 and we got 1 skewer with a few small bites of chicken. i would have liked to have 2 skewers. Regardless everything was seasoned nicely, and had great flavor. The cocktails were also very good. I would go back again for a nice date night.

    We got one thing from each part of the menu: a shareable anchovy appetizer, a salad with fried artichoke hearts, PEI Mussels, and the cauliflower entree. Everything was delicious - full of flavor and beautifully presented. We had cocktails and glasses of wine. The total bill was less than expected for a meal at this level.

    My wife and I had a wonderful meal on a Thursday - we split every dish (as we often do) which included the Mixta salad (so yummy!), and three Tapas: the tortilla de papas (different and great!), the meatballs and champinones (super tasty eaten together). We also had one order of the pan roasted salmon. All the food was prepared so well, and our server very pleasant - my only nit with the evening was that the timing of the salmon to our table was pretty long after our last Tapas had been delivered, in fact so long we were wondering if they had forgotten about it, and so we asked the server if they hadn't fired it yet to just hold off (plus we were already getting full!). But it arrived a couple minutes later - we had a few bites and packaged the rest for a great lunch the next day.

    Some entrees, like the halibut, are very good. Others, like the Paella, disappoint. Portions are small and prices are high. Service is pretty good.

    Really creative dishes spiced well. The wait person seemed rushed, even though they weren’t busy at all., but gave good service. The ribeye was a really excellent cut of meat, but was not worth $75. Price gouging like this is pretty typical in Boulder especially where they can get away with it. They are on Pearl Street mall though. I’m not sure I would go back in terms of the overall value.

    I found the menu very small. Also we should have given the waitress heads up that one member of the party was ordering small plates for his dining experience, while the rest of the party ordered entrees. The entrees were not served together. The food was nice but not really exceptional.

    The food was amazing and our waiter was great. We were looking for a new tapas place and we found it!
