It was a beautiful day outside for December and we got to sit outside by the fire pit. The outside is just an inviting as the inside. 10/10 will be back“

“for $5 per sample, and being less than an oz no way to get a good sense of flavor profile. Very Disappointed.“

“Great place! Have gone there for years and always treated great!“

“You’ve really gotta hit Gypsy at least once every time you’re in the Quad Cities. I mean, where else are you getting a legitimately great hamburger and amazing Thai food under the same roof? Nowhere I’ve been, that’s for sure. In fact I have never experienced a bar / restaurant quite like this. My experience there has just been… different. The name really fits—gypsies were travelers, learners, storytellers—and this place has that same vibe, like a bunch of interesting characters drifting together into one warm, lively little scene. It's open enough to where you can have these conversations with people. I’ve sat in this bar a dozen times, which is wild for me. I don’t usually stick around anywhere that often. But this place feels comfortable in the way most bars don’t. It feels safe. The crowd’s chill, the energy’s easy, the staff feels like a little family, the music always matches the mood, and the toys on the wall are basically a shrine to rock’s greatest eras. And the staff? Super approachable. They actually talk to people—real conversations, not the standard “How’s everything?” fly-bys. They’re a genuine part of the whole experience. You’ll even catch the owners hanging out with everyone like we’re all in some cool, low-key clubhouse we stumbled into together. If you come to the Quad Cities and skip Gypsy’s live music night or open mic night… honestly, I’m not convinced you’ve actually experienced the Quad Cities at all.“

“Stopped in with my daughter son in law and father for lunch prices are fair and service was excellent. And the food. Well let’s just say damn good“

“Anthony is the best mixologist anywhere. The menu is five star. Charcuterie served for 2,4, or 6. Whatever you do, don’t eat before getting there. Gary & Patty.“

“Only good thing about this place is the view. Went last night to celebrate a birthday and I spent more time waiting for my beer than being able to sit down and enjoy my time. 10+ minute wait for a beer with only 5 People around the bar is pretty ridiculous. Needless to say I was pretty upset by the end of the night.“

“Cassidy is the greatest bartender out there. The food was amazing, we ate til we wanted to puke. The bar itself, the greatest atmosphere. The employees, friendly & family oriented. Cassidy welcomed us in, was quick on his feet to make us feel satisfied, and even played uno with us. We came to try a new place and left with smiles from ear to ear with new friends. 10/10 recommend.“

“The food was outstanding, and the atmosphere is intimate and unique. Great cocktails. Probably my favorite restaurant in the QC.“

“Great atmosphere, quick service. I ordered the fried chicken Ramen and it was pretty spicy, which I like. The serving size was plentiful. The chicken was cooked perfectly and paired well with the Thai basil and poppy seed. Jalepeno and onions gave it a great kick.
The bartender was friendly and helpful.“

“Wonderful food & atmosphere! 100% recommend💖“

“the food was delicious! I usually don't eat the refried beans bit here there are fantastic! great service as well! Definitely coming back!“

“It was an amazing experience! The server/bartender I think his name was fingers & he was so personable and made it a memorable experience for my mom’s birthday! The duck wontons are TO DIE FOR & that phoenix pizza is 🔥 ! The only complaint I have is the salad tasted like dirt you could tell the romaine wasn’t washed well or something cause I couldn’t get passed the overwhelming earthiness of my garlic salad . All the drinks were amazing & if I had to recommend just one it would definitely be the nerds martini! I will be back and I would definitely recommend this place for any birthday , anniversary or just a nice dinner! Don’t forget get a piece for that homemade cheesecake either 🫣“
