overall the food was good, i got Khachapuri, some soups which were good, i didnt like the shashlik it was dry and felt really hard. The waitress also looks like she doesnt care about anything, could at least smile a little bit even if its fake. But overall, i like the food just some things needs to be improved

Nestled at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, the country of Georgia is a land rich in history, culture, and gastronomy, showcasing the bounty of the region's agricultural landscapes.

Georgian cuisine has been attracting increased attention among chefs and food enthusiasts in the U.S. for a few years. Unfortunately, the number of truly authentic establishments is small, found mostly in larger cities that are home to sizable numbers of the Eastern European and Russian diaspora.

Located on River Road in Fair Lawn, my partner, some of our Yelp friends, and I were lucky to have this hidden gem so close to home without going into Gotham and decided on lunch today. A reservation was easily made via Google Assistant.

Labelled after shotis puri, the name of a traditional Georgian bread baked in a clay oven similar to a tandoor, we were greeted upon entering as first-timers at Shoti Bread House. With a cozy, casual, and welcoming vibe, we were seated immediately by the window.

Their menu features a variety of traditional dishes like Khachapuri, Lobiani, and Kubdari. The star of the show is the Adjaruli, a boat-shaped bread filled with gooey cheese, butter, and a poached egg, grilled to perfection.

We opted for family style and decided on Meguli (pizza), Adjaruli (boat-shaped cheese bread), Khinkali (chicken and lamb dumplings), Tabaka (roast chicken), Chicken Shish Kebab, and Chakapuli (lamb stew). Our meal started out with the Shoti.

Every dish was fresh, full of authentic flavor, and made with care for authentic food. The portion was healthy, which didn’t leave room for dessert, and the prices were surprisingly affordable. Friendly staff made the experience even better, especially our server, Taylor.

We look forward to going back soon!

Georgian cuisine = arguably the most underrated cuisine. They have so many unique flavors and whether you’re an American who loves stuffed crust pizza ( they make a super fresh stuffed dough with cheese with egg and butter in the middle of this boat shape ) or a vegetarian who never tasted their beet / walnut salad balls ( forget what they’re called ) you can’t go wrong

Plus amazing veal stew .. prices commensurate with the quality and flavor are very fair . The owner is really cool and even if you’re intimidated not knowing the menu , Shoti is very accommodating into educating you on the menu and you’ll be surprised how quick you can learn it !

Don't come here with a party of over 8 people, total MINIMUM tips and all service fees was 46%. 18% minimum tip, +18% for party >8 people + service fees. Food was good but it feels like a scam because of all hidden fees

Still even after trying Georgian food abroad this is one of my favorite places to get Khachapuri. Every time I order from this store I immediately feel happy that I decided to order from this store. The Khachapuri cannot be beat at all!

I first went to this Georgian restaurant on the third day of July in honor of Belarusian Independence Day. I drove from home to Fair Lawn that day, and that day was my first time going to Fair Lawn. Additionally, this was my first time trying Georgian cuisine. I loved the food I ate: the blinchiki, the Ajapsandali (the Georgian ratatouille), and the Penovani Lobiani, which was a puff pastry with red bean paste. Then, after I finished my meal, I ordered Georgian dumplings, which were delicious. I would love to dine in this eatery again one day.

I visited this place recently and loved it! Shoti bread was delicious, and Khachapuri was perfectly cheesy. Khinkali were juicy and flavorful. Friendly staff made the experience even better. Great food at reasonable prices - I'll definitely come back!
