This was a great place for Georgian food in the West Village! A friend had been here before, and she suggested that we go together, and we had a great meal together. Between the two of us, we ended up sharing four dishes (no entrees), which was more than enough food for us so we actually got to take leftovers home. We got: - Georgian Garden Spreads (4/5) wish this came with more bread, but loved the mushroom and pumpkin spreads - Georgian Salad (4/5) hit the spot! - Round Adjaruli Khachipuri (5/5) this was soooooooo good. Absolutely delicious. - Mushroom Khinkali (4/5) this was a good portion size! The servers were all super friendly and very attentive with refilling our waters. The food also came out pretty quickly! We never felt rushed finishing our meal. And the restaurant is beautifully decorated and spacious. read more

We were a party of three and ordered: - Shrimp Pistachio Satsivi $27 - Boat Shaped Adjaruli khachapuri $23 - Cornish Hen from Guria $36 - Cabbage Tolma $35 - San Sebastian Pistachio Cheesecake $19 - Mukado Mtsvane Qvevri 2022 glass $19 - Tsingandali Estate Kakhetian Qvevri Blend glass $20 It was the perfect amount of food and we honestly enjoyed everything. Our waiter was really good with recs, especially if you're deciding between 2-3 of the options. Service was good and vibe was immaculate. read more

I had such a great experience at Askili Orchard. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a cozy feel that makes you want to stay and enjoy a long meal. The food is outstanding -- full of authentic Georgian flavors and clearly made with care. The khinkali were juicy and perfectly seasoned, and the khachapuri was rich, comforting, and freshly baked. Every dish felt homemade and thoughtfully prepared. Service was friendly and attentive without being overwhelming. You can really tell the staff takes pride in what they do and wants guests to have a good experience. Overall, Askili Orchard is a gem for anyone who loves Georgian cuisine or wants to try something new and flavorful. I'll definitely be coming back again. read more

Leaning toward 3.5. Let me explain. Relative newcomer to w village this Georgian spot aims to go above your average Georgian place which until recently wasn't many to choose from . For the good , we got the obligatory khinkali dumplings and adzharuli khachapuri . Both were tasty and hit the spot. The kninkali weren't particularly "soupy" but the meat was well seasoned and tasty. Next we got chicken and pork skewers. Out came 3 giant hunks of protein each with bib lettuce salad . Both proteins were dry. I had to send the pork back it was that inedible. They offered kubdari baked bread which was decent but a bit bready. All in all we liked the starters and noticed other tables also ordered "opening notes" selections that looked decent and perhaps that's what is good ? For almost $120 + tip this wasn't horrible but didn't leave us craving more . read more

Incredible food at this Georgian spot. Location is prime near Washington sq park. Our waiter was so knowledgeable and passionate in sharing his cuisine and culture, definitely made our experience 100x more memorable. The food itself is very diverse and tasty. The wait staff did an incredible job describing how each dish is prepared and how best to enjoy it. Atmosphere was great. A bit loud but only because everyone was having a good time. read more

Came here with a group of friends on a Saturday night. Overall, we had a great dinner. We ordered a bunch of stuff from the menu and ate family style. Garden spreads: tasty, but they are so stingy with the bread. The dip to bread ratio is wild- makes no sense and we had to ask for more orders of the bread (and still have spread to spare) Khachipuri: this is a unique dish and one of the most famous dishes of Georgia. Get the classic boat shaped one with egg and cheese and experience pure salty, creamy, umami heaven. Their other options are also pretty intriguing as well- I forgot which we got in addition but it was good! The dumplings (khinkali): we LOVED the lamb dumplings. I could eat an entire bowl of those and happily fall into a food coma. The crab ones were a bit too fishy for my taste, but might be a hit for the right pallet. Everything else we got was solid. The cabbage tolma was delicious, although small-ish portion size. The blackberry raspberry sauce over the Cornish hen was excellent. Oh and they had a bunch of great drinks. Definitely plan to get a cocktail. I'm sure I'll return. read more

The flavors were nice, but the dishes are really too expensive, which is probably not that surprising for the neighborhood. The three mushroom khinkali had a nice texture, and a savory filling. Beans from Samgrelo were slightly smoky beans in a spiced tomato sauce. Lots of warm flavors here. These came with two rolls of chewy cornbread. The issue is, the dishes are $45 before tax or tip, and the portions are kind of modest. Though the food is decent, I felt the cost isn't justified. read more

Checked this new Georgian restaurant in Greenwich Village. Not bad . I had the beans from Sangrelo which is like a stew, came with cornbread. The dish was luke warm, could've been more hot. Dessert was winter orange winter wonderland. Can't say it was the best meal I ever had but it was different and tasty . Prices were high considering portions were on the small size . read more

We had a party of 12, and were impressed with the amount of space for us to fit comfortably in Manhattan. Our server, Tony, was awesome and attentive to our large group. This my first time having Georgian (country) food. The table split a variety of options, which were all delicious. My favorites were Georgian Garden Spreads and Dumplings. Definitely add this place to the list of restaurants to try in NYC! read more

My absolute favorite place to go. Food is so amazing, I catch myself dreaming about it sometimes. Love the ambience and the service is so welcoming, feels like you're greeted by your family members. read more

Unfortunately, no amount of excellence in food can easily overcome rudeness from staff.

We (party of five) had the most amazing dinner at Askilli Orchard last night. Our waiter (I think his name was Joel), was friendly, knowlegeable and helped us pick out wines, apps and main courses. He could not be more attentive! And don't get me started on the authentic food - everything was delicious! I will say it's not cheap, but certainly worth the price -- I would go back in a heartbeat! read more

A friend and I had dinner the other night and LOVED our meal, service, and decor!! Everything was incredibly tasty with amazing flavor. For appetizers we had the Georgian garden spreads and the trout tartare. For dinner we had the veal steak Kharcho served with elarji (Georgian grits with cheese) and it was to die for. And we had Tolma - beef wrapped in purple cabbage. So many incredible flavors it's hard to choose a favorite :) in addition to great food, everyone was helpful and attentive. Don't hesitate to try this restaurant! read more

Unfortunately, the worst service I have ever experienced. I booked a reservation 3 weeks ago for 6:30pm. When I arrived at 6:30, they told me it would be 15 minutes before I could be seated. Never had this happen for a reservation, but it was busy and it was Valentine's Day, so I accepted. I waited as they continued to seat others. After 30 minutes, I checked with the host. She told me I was still in line and she would get me soon. Remember, I had a reservation. I would have left at this point, but it was Valentine's Day, so I wouldn't be able to get a walk in anywhere else, I was sort of trapped with this place. It was over an hour before I was seated. A 6:30 reservation, and I wasn't seated until 7:35. Already the night was ruined, but I didn't have a choice but to stay at this point. Took the waiter 20 minutes to take our order. Took even longer for the food to come out. Didn't get my food until 8:25. Food was fine, I liked the khachapuri. They were clearly understaffed, so most of the food was cold aside from the khachapuri. There was no apology, no understanding, nothing from the staff or management. Very expensive place for being such a horrible experience. I would hope on any other day the place is a good choice, but it absolutely ruined Valentine's Day. Waiting over an hour to be seated for my reservation I booked weeks in advance cements that I could never go back to this place again. Humiliating and painful dinner. read more

probably the most over priced under serviced restaurant in NYC. Appetisers came in after 20 mins after reminder and entrees to ok an hour. Bartender didn't understand liquor types. Charged extra for 'Georgian' hot sauce - basically crushed calamata olives. What a rip-off. Avoid. read more

I saw a comment above about the service. I came in at 7:15 pm and asked if I could be out in time for my 8pm film down the block. Very friendly hostess. She said, "yes, no problem." Very friendly waiter. Told him of my time issue. No problem. He suggested a wine and wanted me to taste it. I did. It was good. He asked me what to order and I said whatever you suggest. I should have said"whatever's fastest." At 7:55 there was no food and I said I'd take it to go. He said it wouldn't be ready for ten minutes. He said he'd "keep it" and I paid $25 for the glass of wine. I went down the street and had a slice for $1.50. I wouldn't mind the slow service if I didn't have a time crunch. And they should have told me. read more

Food is really nice with texture and flavors, service is wonderful and atmosphere is beautiful

What an innovative twist the owner has created to present Georgian food to match the fast-paced track of New Yorkers! One will not be disappointed with anything that is served there. The Georgian vegetable spread leaves a memorable taste in the mouth that lasts well after one finishes it. The Georgian Mukado wine will, I believe, be a fan favorite and a regular repeat. Great service and a fine ambience make this establishment a much-needed welcome. Josef F. read more

Absolute gem in the village. Brilliant cocktails, pristinely mixed. Beautiful atmosphere---modern yet a comfy feeling. And the service is notably top notch. Looking forward to this being a regular spot for us. Just delightful read more

We came here for brunch on a Saturday morning and our experience from start to finish was top notch. We couldn't get over how friendly everyone was--from the hostess, to our server, to the bartender, etc. We immediately felt so welcome and were excited for a nice meal. The atmosphere is absolutely beautiful and we loved their choice of peaceful background music. It's nice to enjoy a brunch and not have loud bass blasting in your ears. And now most importantly...the food! We have had Georgian food in a couple of spots throughout the city and we solidly agree that this has been the best. We shared their dip assortment (GET THEM), the squid ink and crab dumplings and one of their special breads with strawberry butter. Everything tasted as beautiful as it was presented. Our cocktails were also mind blowing. Looking forward to coming back here. They are a very welcome addition to the city and we hope they do very well. read more

We loved our experience here. Not too crowded, good service and amazing food. The spreads, warm aubergine salad a d kachapuri were so delicious. Will be back! read more

We got FIVE drinks and they charged us $188... $21 for ginger beer alone. And we had to waive down the servers in an empty restaurant for a drink. Diva no. This ain't the place. read more

Food was good. Portions were not big, especially for the price. Also the dips were good but it only came with two small pieces of bread for 4 large scoops of dip. I'd try it again but still some things that could be improved. read more
