Been to this place twice now - one for dinner one for takeout and both times the food was amazing. I love Georgian food & was so happy when another spot opened! The dumplings are some of the best I’ve had - they are super doughy but they also are NOT shy with the filling. The shkmeruli chicken is rich and decadent and divine. The cheeseboat selection incredible & the flavors S tier.
The only reason I knocked off a star is the service. It’s slow slow. I ordered wine and did not get it. I waited long after I sat to be greeted. Still worth going.
I ordered borscht, two lamb dishes, and a napoleon from this place. As a Ukrainian, let me tell you that their borscht tastes nothing like borscht. It has some weird Georgian spices in it and has no meat. This is definitely NOT an authentic Ukrainian borscht! The bread that came with it was stale. It was a very old piece of bred!. The lamb dishes were just OK and the "Napoleon"... c'mon! This is not Napoleon! Ugh. Maybe their Khachapuri Ajaruli (cheese boats) taste better, but my food was just a weird take on buzz word dishes. Very disappointing. The lamb dish in the picture costs $30. It came with no side dishes, just another piece of stale, stinky bread :(

I took a friend and family member who were visiting NYC here and it was the first time for all three of us at this restaurant...by the end I felt embarrassed to have taken the two of them here because the food and service ended up being bad. The cheese for the khachapuri was barely melted and the khinkali dough were still raw at the tips. The server would forget to bring us silverware or refill waters and disappear for long periods of time (it looked like he was staffing way too many tables to be able to provide good service)...after about 10 minutes of waiting and trying to wave over the server to give us silverware so we could eat but him not coming and the food going cold, we ended up walking up to the bar ourselves to ask them to please give us silverware. Waiting for the check so that we could leave also took a very long time. The three of us didn't finish the two dishes we ordered due to the poor quality and we left the restaurant hungry to find the rest of dinner at another restaurant instead.

Delicious, inventive takes on classic Georgian fare. We tried the Meatball and Honeycomb Brie Cheeseboats; both flavor combinations were delectable, and the bread base had a wonderfully fresh flavor. Service was timely. Ambiance was a little dark and crowded, but fine. Looking forward to returning soon.

i am very disappointed they charged me twice on my credit card. Different amounts so i will’t notice easily. Although i paid very good tip and they have very expensive prices they still stole my money. Be careful. i also trusted them before this. I am attaching picture as proof.

Need to Cheeseboat, good stuff you should give it a try. Large party we were able to sample many of the dishes. Everything is great. Eggplant rolls and meatball cheeseboat.
We went to Cheeseboat based on location next to my son's place. We had a nice long oval table in the back. We were party of 8. Food was tasty especially the cheeseboat with Brie with honey. We also had soup dumplings. It's highly recommended based on reviews, but I thought the dough was too thick. We also tried meat crepes; they were tasty. This type of food is heavy. Service was slow & not consistent. I would recommend trying that restaurant maybe once as an experience.

We had a wonderful experience at Cheeseboat -Hell's Kitchen! I loved how easy it was to make a reservation online and then the restaurant totally delivered in both friendly service and delicious food! We were a large party of 9 and our waiter and the rest of the staff were all extremely lovely and patient with us. They were totally chill about some members of our party running pretty late and were willing to do separate checks. And, importantly, the food was amazing!! 10/10 can't wait to go back and definitely recommend!
Great service, and amazing food! Hands down the best meal we have had all week. We ate until stuffed, then kept going! Don’t sleep on this place, trust me. The Shkmeruli chicken was probably the most flavorful chicken I’ve ever had, and the hummus was incredible. Not gonna lie, the steak and cheese boat came last so we only ate the steak and cheese- we were too full lol. We will definitely be back here!

My FAVORITE place to visit in NYC when I’m craving super cheesy, flavorful dishes. The pictures speak for themselves. Don’t miss out and share a cheeseboat + creamy Georgian chicken stew with your next date. I can’t recommend this place enough it just hits the spot and it’s executed perfectly every time we visit.
I just got off a flight and this is the first stop I wanted to make for dinner with friends. Well worth the $$
Great food and wonderful staff. Greatly recommended for big companies who love enjoying their time with delicious cocktails! Will be back with friends!
