Customer Reviews
Fantastic restaurant with a unique food offering of authentic Georgian food. Recommend their khachapuri and their lamb kebab. We tried their Pkhali Spinach which is an acquired taste and the beef khinkali dumplings, which had good flavor. We also tried the assortment of drinks from the traditional Georgian soda (pear and tarragon flavors) and the mixed berry compote. The tarragon tastes like fennel/licorice. We wanted the Chakpuri, but they stopped selling it when we arrived at 6:30, since they had run out, so make sure you arrive early to try it! Please note that the food does take a while to arrive. We waited 30 minutes for food, but the staff are very nice and the owner spends a lot of time and effort in ensuring quality food. Generally, there is plenty of space and never too full, b
We had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. When we arrived, no one greeted us at the entrance. The host seemed unhappy to serve us, there was no smile and no enthusiasm, and no effort to recommend anything from the menu. The menu lists a fish dish, but when we asked about it, we were told they don’t serve fish because it’s Georgian cuisine. That was confusing and misleading. I ordered a Georgian salad, but it was not Georgian at all. It lacked the fresh greens that are essential: no dill, parsley, cilantro, or green onions. Instead, it was made with old lettuce and soggy cucumbers and tomatoes. The quill dish was extremely salty and came with no side dish. We also ordered chicken kebabs, but they were just overcooked pieces of chicken with no flavor. The khinkali was a
Excellent Georgian food! The spinach pkhali was a perfect start, and the chakapuli lamb stew was rich and flavorful. The khachapuri was cheesy and delicious. It's a 4-star experience only because the service was a bit slow, but the freshness of the food makes the wait worth it. Highly recommend for an authentic taste of Georgian cuisine.
Absolutely delicious and the owners are amazing. I had visited Georgia a few months prior to my visit here and was craving the food. This place hits. I highly recommend the shkmeruli and khachapuri.
Tamari was a perfect date night pick! - I had a Georgian wine, Mukuzani, which was a great full bodied red - The Khinkali were exceptional, with dough that was properly thin and meat that was seasoned perfectly - The Khachapuri was great (we got the simplest one and it was a great accompaniment for the kebabs) - The chicken kebab was juicy and just the right amount of char - For dessert we ordered the Tamari's Favorite, a creative pear-focused dish with a very unique cream and sauce combination, as well as some Georgian coffee Overall a great experience! The owner was very friendly and we had a great time chatting with him about his recent vacation in Georgia. We'll definitely be back.
