I'm working on an app where the "engine" is written in C++ and the GUI
is written in Objective-C/Cocoa. The engine compiles and runs on both
OS X and Linux. The OS X GUI works thanks to the Objective-C++
compilier.

If you want your code to be cross-platform you lose out on using the
nice Objective-C utility class library. But cross-platform GUIs are
rife with difficulties and more trouble than they are worth (IMHO), so
there's no reason to not use Objective-C for your GUI.
