This restaurant is such a fun adventure. I love that it feels casual and wacky, but the food is still really solid and crafted with so much attention to detail. It's really the best of both worlds. We went recently for my husband's birthday, and we sat at the chef's table (I think that's what you call it) where you can see the chefs at work. It felt like an episode of The Bear, minus the cursing, stress, and accidental locking of oneself in the freezer. We were right next to the freezer/fridge though, and it was nice to get a burst of cold air every now and then, and see inside! Each chef walks around with their dish of the night, quickly explains it, and you get to choose if you want that dish (like Dim Sum, sorta!). If you do, they mark it on your paper menu. At the end, your server collects your menu and adds up the total. It adds up quickly, but it's all delicious! And you can eat as much or as little as you choose, thought it does feel sad to turn away the chefs, haha. We absolutely loved the incredible lamb dish served with lemon yogurt sauce, and the tuna served on a fancy hashbrown was also divine. The chefs and servers all had such a great attitude, and we had a blast! There is a choice of three desserts, and we got the banana pudding, and they also gifted us the coconut dessert as a birthday gift. We could have been rolled out of there at the end of the night. We wanted a photo of us, and one of the chefs ran to get the Instax to take one of us in addition to our cellphone camera. A bunch of chefs are in the photo with us, and that will stay on our fridge for a long time to come. Can't wait to return with more friends and family for the next special occasion.

This place was AMAZING. Not every dish had flavors or ingredients that excited us, but every dish we ate was fantastic. The cocktails were imaginative and well-made. The servers were extremely kind and helpful. Be aware that it can get warm, but not uncomfortably so, because the entire concept is an open kitchen. The dishes change every few weeks and I can't wait to see what the chefs come up with next.

The restaurant is unassuming and basic, but everything is open including food prep and the people that you're sharing a table with. The drinks are extreme in zest and flavor. All are really good and run the gamut from each end of the taste chart with no two alike. The service is on point. You won't feel neglected in any sense of normalcy. These folks are pros. The food is amazing. It's very diverse and complex in description but it all comes together nicely. The price is high. It's a unique dining indulgence and the cost of eating and drinking everything that is presented to you can add up really quick despite the meal taking several hours to experience. Is it worth it? In my opinion, absolutely. I consider Gunshow as one of those indulgences that is nice to experience every now and then... like throwing yourself a party.

Gunshow is an upbeat and energetic foodie tasting experience. You get a little of everything, if something doesn't pique your interest you can either choose to accept or decline the dish that the chef has presented. Very dim sum in a sense. Be ready to spend if you want. We went to celebrate my birthday and everyone came by and said Happy Birthday. They also put a candle on my dessert. Pro: Tasty food from a Michelin star restaurant and exactly what you're looking for from Chef Kevin Gillespie of Top Chef. Bar Cart was an exciting idea but I got my drink from the bar and it was great. Service was on top of it, always refilling drinks and clearing plates. Great desserts. Inviting experience that makes you want to come back. Con: We sat next to other couples and not at our own table, but it's not as intimate of a restaurant as you would want, but if you make conversation with the people next to you, you may enjoy! Overall: ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!! Will be recommending to everyone.

Came here for an anniversary dinner and it was an interesting, fun experience. As many have mentioned it's like American dim sum with the chef's parading their creations to your party and you saying yes or no. Between my girlfriend and I we got 90% of the menu and because this is a 1.5-2.5 hour dining experience we somehow managed to get full. I will note if you want more than one dish you are able to do so. On the board my the restroom you can see which chef(s) are responsible for which dishes. Each time the chef's came around we pretty much said yes or yes chef!! Which they loved. Some dishes were really simple and others more complex my personal favorites were the egg/caviar sandwich, beef cheeks and monkfish. The inside is a large open room which can get quite loud but it looked like there were a few large groups dining so will keep that in mind for future group dinner outings. At the end of the meal we asked our server for a picture with all of the chefs and they happily obliged. Cool experience to have but could be hit or miss on the dishes - not sure how often the menu switches out.

If you are in town and/or want to try something totally different? This place is for you. First off, don't think you are going to casually walk in without a reservation. Be sure to have reservations or you will not be seated at all! 8:15pm reservations on a Saturday night we were seated a few minutes after, shared long table for two we sat right across from each other. The server handed us a paper menu and explained the way this place works. Allow me to break it down: There are anywhere between five and seven (+/-) talented chefs cooking in plain view and offer a menu of shared items. The list of about 10 items or so will come out randomly, brought out by the chef who made it and you get to decide whether you want it or not. The catch - if you decide to pass on it there is no guarantee it will come back again. So, review the menu and when it comes your way you have an idea if you want it . Anxiety level? 10 at first! We said YES to the first three dishes but after that we got the hang of it. Don't like it after you accepted it? You're stuck with it, buddy. Drinks? Cocktail menu is broken down into two - the ones they have at the bar and the ones they prepare table side. Yes, table side - pretty cool. There's a video i posted. Take a look! The menu changes either daily / weekly but here's my ultimate lowdown. Food: Talented chefs. The creation on the plate makes you think you're on a TV show (except you're paying for it). The flavors primarily were on point and the presentation was without fail. The tableside cocktail drinks were definitely a show but felt it was lacking on the alcohol level. Final thoughts: Great place for something DIFFERENT. Who knows, you may have just stumbled on the next greatest chef. The concept is like something we've never been part of. Food was good overall, even the ones we passed on looked appealing but we can't eat EVERYTHING! The service? For being this busy was top notch. Very attentive and making sure we were good. 5 Stars. You'll have a great time if you are open-minded. Just give it a try. Oh - last thing. Crab Stuffed Chicken Wings. HOW? You'll have to go to find out.

The gun show is a dining Mecca in Atlanta. The outside is very unassuming and the interior very minimalist. Your food comes kind of dim sum style: they bring prepared small dishes to your table to accept or refuse. Each night a handful of chefs prepare signature dishes to be shared at your table. The creativity of each dish served felt like being at a magic show. Each food item was more amazing than the previous one. We learned the history behind the name of the restaurant - the owner's father used to take him to gun shows when he was growing up. It was from this fond memory the name of the restaurant was born. The food was amazing but the price will leave you in sticker shock. If you're in the ATL check this place out.
