All of the tapas we ordered was excellent!!! The chef’s charcuterie board- phenomenal. We had both cold octopus salad & grilled octopus over corn puree!!!! Both were outstanding! The steak with mushroom foam!!! I will dream about this dish. Tuna tartare & squash soup are so so yummy! Our server, Christina, so sweet & fantastic! Drinks were great. I gave a lower score on ambience due to the fact their HVAC as malfunctioning & it was cold in the restaurant. Definitely returning for more!!!

We moved from Atlanta years ago and always loved this restaurant and we came back for a visit and it was as great as before. The value is still there and all the flavors were great. Ordered a Mescalita and it was the perfect balance for the drink.

I would highly recommend Gypsy Kitchen to anyone wanting to celebrate or just have a fantastic meal/drinks. My husband and I went for his birthday and had a great evening. We had the broccolini, mushrooms, cheese, scallops and lamb and would order them all again, or go back to try an entire new set of dishes. We had the opportunity to chat with the manager Andrew and he was very kind and personable. Highly recommend! It looks like a high price tag, but you could go for a couple cheeses and glass of wine and still have a great night in a fun ambience.
