I opened Cafe Gecko in 1991 "on a shoestring" after bartending in Addison for twelve years. Much of my inspiration for the menu came from my frequent travels to Cozumel and an idea to create a simple menu made up of original recipes and focusing on unique flavors. I truly believe that the key to longevity in this business is the quality and consistency of the food. 

I have been very fortunate to have had an amazing staff and a dedicated following of regular customers who come back year after year and have made this crazy dream of mine happen.

Whether you have been coming to Gecko for thirty plus years or this is your first visit, thank you for the opportunity to offer a unique place to enjoy the great food and relax with your friends or make new ones along the way.
