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.

This place is truly a hidden gem! The owner is very friendly and really cares about introducing the Georgian culture and cuisine to you. Georgian Amber wine served in their authentic clay bowls is second to none!

It is such a treat to have authentic Georgian cousin. Lovely food. Amazing atmosphere and if you lucky and owner is not busy he might tell you about Georgia. Food is fresh. Veggies and fruits fresh from the farmer's market. I had the best Napoleon. Looking forward for visiting again. Will highly recommend Georgian salad, Napoleon pastry, chicken kebab, coffee, poached pear in red wine reduction was just out of this world delicious.
