Best food in the world. Great atmosphere. Great family run business. I’m vegetarian and the menu has a wide range of amazing veg options. HUGE portions. I’m so happy to have found this place. Don’t miss it.
Definitely recommend this authentic Georgian food, it will not disappoint. To my surprise it was very flavorful (had Georgian before in a couple places) but this one tops it for sure. The kachapuri and khinkali were the highlight.
Was driving by and decided to stop by. Amazing traditional vibe and design inside. Everything is authentic and handmade. Front of the house is very welcoming and guided us through an awesome menu. Must get the garlic cream chicken, any of the breads with cheese, and meat. The dumplings are a huge and great. Everything was exceptional and definitely homemade fresh to order. Many more items I will be back to try.
