Robert FuksJune 3, 2019The food is beyond delicious, the open faced Khachapuri, and the Taste of Georgia are a must, but every single thing on the menu we ordered was so good that we wanted to order more and more of it!

SaraJune 16, 2019Sample the wine before you buy a bottle — we ended up with our own tasting courtesy of the most delightful waitstaff. Unique, authentic, traditionally produced Georgian wines.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
CarolApril 1, 2022Get the Taste of Georgia and Adjaruli khachapuri (cheesy bread). The megruli kharsho was flavorful and interesting because of the fried grits. Overall good food and vibes- they charge for extra bread

Love to be there. It remains me best Georgian memories. Food is tasty and atmo is very friendly. If you are lucky you can even get complimentary dessert from the owner. :)
- Probably the best khachapuri you’ll find in New York, but make sure to try some of their other stuff as well. Herbal soups, good wine and friendly staff.
Elizabeth BursteinSeptember 2, 2019The plate is good! But eggplant w walnuts is best. The red pepper and yogurt are also good. The chakapuli w lamb was ok but not amazing. The honey cake is great !
Ian SteyerJune 4, 2019It’s not bad but there’s better and cheaper Georgian food in NYC, especially if you’re willing to go to Brooklyn. The atmosphere is really cool though (the kitchen!) and the wine selection is great
Cam_in_BrisOctober 31, 2022The cheese breads are fantastic to share among two - they’re rich but tasty. Some of the vegetarian dishes are on the smaller side, but have good flavour. Good, unfussed service.
Clara EloyDecember 14, 2023It was good and an interesting food experience. Definitely get the cheesy bread and the dumplings

SiobhánJanuary 19, 2020Super delicious and a lovely menu for sharing with friends to have a good evening.
Mark J.January 28, 2020The khachapuri is spectacular but only the tip of the iceberg! Definitely need to come back a few times to try everything else!- Elizabeth BursteinJune 9, 2019Incredible! Megruli kharsho, adjaruli khachapuri, eggplant dish, and wine sampler where i loved the red, white ok, amber not so much
Carlos GuillénMay 6, 2019The adjaruli is very tasty! I enjoyed the beef ribs and the Georgian wine was very good.
Dustin LeeDecember 1, 2019Pork Mtsvadi was excellent, but pass on the shkmeruli and Khinkali. Solid but Brooklyn has better and cheaper.
Steo SNovember 19, 2021TERRIBLE experience. If you are in a group of 10 or more you either accept to pay a minimum of 55$ per persone (before tax) or you have to split in multiple tables.
Mitra SalaselJanuary 21, 2023Food is good but entire staff from host to server to runner are cold, rude, dismissive and uninterested in hospitality.
