Indonesian noodles with tofu
Binal T.

Fourth time here and the food is equally good as years ago. I am not sure why their menu doesn't show Indonesian noodles but you can order it nevertheless. We were in NH for 4 days and out of that we were at Gypsy cafe for 2. We love this place it has a lil bit of everything. we tried their malai kofta, fried fritters, Indonesian noodles, Brazilian rice, butter pasta(from kids menu) and corn and cauliflower patties. Everything was delicious and the service was good. Just one thing to be mindful of is they do require you to make a reservation in advance eventhough the place might not be as crowded at 5:30 PM. Coming back again when we are in Lincoln!

Grilled cheese fondue
Kent S.

Rating: 4.3 Came to try this place for dinner due to its popularity. It's a restaurant that serves fusion dishes combining different cultural food. Small parkings lot available. Inside is nicely decorated and seems hippie. Inside is spacious and has many seatings. It was not too busy so we were sat down immediately on a side table with chairs. We ordered grilled cheese fondue, Indonesian swordfish noodle, and Thai style salad with chicken. The grilled cheese fondue was tasty. Buttery and savory grilled cheese goes well with sweet and sour anchovies bbq like sauce. Indonesian sword fish noodle was delicious. The sword fish was a bit dry but sweet and savory peanut sauce helped keep it moist and flavorful. Noodles had good texture and veggies and peanuts added to the flavor/texture profile. My partner enjoyed her thai salad. Service was good and staffs were nice. Overall the place was pretty good. Great flavors and vegan options are plus for some people. The place is unique in a way that offers dishes combining different cultures which was refreshing. Downside was that the price was on higher side for some of its menu and that there were ants everywhere on our table and the side of the window which can be seen as unsanitary.

Italian Duck Grilled Cheese
Lauren B.

The Gypsy Cafe is a very eccentric and eclectic spot. Their menu covers the globe, and there is something that will satisfy everyone's taste buds. I normally pop in for dinner, but this day, I stopped in for lunch. I ordered the Italian Duck Grilled Cheese with goat cheese. It was the perfect amount of food for a quick lunch. I do wish there had been more basil aioli and fig jam, but it was tasty nonetheless. If you stop in for dinner, I highly recommend the Sea Flower Shrimp and Sugar Pie for dessert. They also have such a fun variety of drinks and weekly specials. The service is always fast, and the servers are always lovely. Whether you're visiting Lincoln to ski, hike, or mountain bike, a stop at the Gypsy Cafe is a must!

Margaritas
Jamie A.

Here for dinner hours! We needed to try this place after some deep research on its unique taste of different cultural foods~ it's a mix of Asian, American, and Mexican foods (might be missing another culture) with a twist and some vegan/veggie options~ The atmosphere and vibes are "chill" and a place to bring a group of friends for drinks. The decor is so trippy and cool. It's mosaic of letters, flowers, disco, with some faux cactus, and mosaic tables~ my complaint is the small ants appearing out of nowhere. TBH, I was a bit creeped by ants, and it was a nuisance, but after a couple sips of my margarita, I didn't care~ these margaritas are mostly alcohol which is worth your $$~ if I had just one more, I'd be ready to party ~ very enjoyable~ For appetizers, we shared a fondue, which consisted of mini cheese sandwiches with a pot of sweet and tangy warmed sauce. I couldn't pinpoint what it was because it tasted like a mix of tamarind, bbq, and sweet and sour. Delicious and worth the order. Loved every piece! For my dish, I ordered the chicken Thai salad which was delicious~ the dressing came on the side which was wonderful because I like my salad dry (very controversial I know). Everything was delicious but standard salad wise. My partner ordered the sword fish Indonesian, and it was delicious~ it has peanut sauce noodles and the sword fish was good~ very heavy, but delicious. Service was prompt and luckily, we weren't waiting and there was no line because we arrived at dinner opening of 5pm. I lifted very satisfied!

Thai Red Curry Duck
Ann S.

The reviews led me here. Service was good. It's always amusing to me when people find it odd that you come to a restaurant and you're eating alone. This should be normalized as there are many solo travelers all over even if you might not see them where you live. Anyways...... As an appetizer, I got the curried kale salad, which was recommended by the waiter. Because it's kale, I had very low expectations. But surprisingly, it turned out to be quite tasty. Rating: 4.5/5 I got Thai Red Curry Duck as an entree. The peanut-based sauce was where all the flavor was. The duck by itself was bland but cooked tender and maybe a little rare. It was a little chewy. The rice was cooked right and had some flavor. The asparagus was cooked just fine. Overall, the meal was pretty good but I got tired of it halfway through. I think the dish had a little too much duck for me or maybe it was because I was getting full. Rating: 3.5/5 I was full by the time I was done with my last few bites. Shouldn't have ordered a beverage beyond water.

Interior

We recently had some chimney work done and the owner wanted to thank us by eating here. We have been going to the Gypsy for over a decade and it remains consistently good. The service is professional and the food is always varied and well prepared. The full bar offers top shelf labels as well; in other words, a pleasant dining experience in Linwood. My Korean chicken stir fry was tasty and filling; worth having again for sure. Unfortunately, no room for dessert.

Australian Lamb With saffron rice and asparagus
Dean D.

The Gypsy Cafe is right in the heart of Lincoln, NH. We stayed at the Holiday Inn down the street with plans to do some hiking in the area. The restaurant has a pretty nice menu, mostly Mediterranean type dishes. I had the Australian lamb chops for my main entree. It was on the specials menu and was very tasty. We also had their hummus appetizer which was very good. It comes with hummus, Baba ghanoush, olives, feta cheese, Tzatziki sauce and pita points. Great appetizer...baba ghanoush was a little on the oily side but tasted pretty good. For dessert, we had the salted caramel lava cake...to die for! Overall, solid four star restaurant with five star service and comfortable atmosphere. If you're in Lincoln, the Gypsy Cafe is a solid choice. Enjoy!

Great food nice ambience and a amazing staff . Definitely recommend to check this place if like vegan food .

grilled cheese app

The service was very subpar. the water refill service was nonexistent, which was surprising given how hot it was indoors. waitress was quick about taking our orders but rarely seen afterwards. food was good, but slow, maybe a staffing issue. not sure if it's worth it given the above.

My husband and I love Indian food. We're glad we found this place via web search. We went for an…read moreearly dinner on a Sunday. It wasn't busy since it was off hours. We were greeted by a polite gentleman and was told we can sit anywhere we want. He proceeded to give us menus. He gave us ample time to make our selection. We chose pani puri for appetizer then my husband opted for their masala dosa while I ordered the chicken korma. I love that they have two options for meal sizes, the 8 oz and 16 oz. I only had the 8 oz and I still had some leftovers. The pani puri was tasty though a bit different from the ones we've previously had. I had a bite of the masala dosa too and that was also delicious. The portions were not humongous which was appreciated. Prices were reasonable. In fact, the prices are favorable. There are plenty of dining space, the place is clean and staff is friendly. Food is good value for sure so I am positive we'll end up being regulars. If you love Indian food, I suggest you give Haveli a try!

There are hardly any other Indian restaurants in the area, let alone good ones - if you're craving Indian food - I'd recommend you to try it. Oh, and they have a big restaurant - so they can accommodate really large parties.

Miso soup was delicious and hearty - just what you need on a cold day outside. Both, noodles and fried rice were great. Btw their spice levels are catered to North American taste buds, so if you're an Asian just tell them highest spice levels and you'll probably still feel like moderate. Having said that, great flavours. The staff was nice and friendly. I used the restroom and they were clean and well maintained. Definitely recommended.

It is a tragedy that I was only planning to visit Portland for less than a day, so I didn't have the opportunity to dine in at the Green Elephant. However I would contemplate driving up from Boston just to have their Singapore noodles again. It was so flavorful, and the noodles were cooked to the perfect texture. The level 2 spice in the online ordering menu was not spicy at all, but the food still had a good amount of sauce and flavor. The dish was definitely heavy on the noodles and probably only had 4-5 bite-sized pieces of tofu for protein, but the noodles certainly were my favorite part. And for only about $15-20 per main dish, this is one of the more accessible/affordable restaurants for vegan options in Portland!
