What a lovely restaurant! We recently had lunch here and ordered a few items, including the famous Khachapuri. Also ordered some delicious khinkali (steamed and fried) and lamb chops - yum! For drinks, we had some pear kompot (quince) and Georgian red wine (one of my favorites). Service was decent (the restaurant was not busy when we were there) and the ambience was quiet. Definitely recommend trying it if you’re in the city!

went here for a birthday dinner and couldn’t recommend more. everyone in our group was absolutely blown away by the food, it was some of the best and most unique food i’ve ever had. also our waiter was incredible and so nice and made a great birthday toast. halfway through my meal i texted my parents to recommend the restaurant to them. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be returning.

The food was delicious. We ordered several different khachapuri, khinkali, meat and potatoes dish and beef kebab wrapped in lavash. All were super flavorful! The waiters were attentive, and great. We also had delicious dessert- napoleon cake.

This is my go-to place every time I’m in Chicago. I’ve recommended it to a bunch of friends, and they all loved it too. The food is always great, and the atmosphere is really nice. Last time I went, the staff was especially friendly and welcoming, it made the experience even better! Thank you! Keep going!

Just hit up Chicago's Diplomat Cafe on Lincoln Ave for a chill Friday night—and wow. Split a Megruli khachapuri and a plate of Khinkali meat dumplings, plus a cold appetizer mix. Cheese was oozy, dumplings juicy, apps fresh. They had upbeat weekend tunes and the vibe felt grown‑up but not stuffy. Staff walked us through the menu real nice. For Georgian comfort food in Lakeview, this is the spot—def coming back!
