    Savoury beef boat, chicken boat, and meat pie
    Eddie K.

    I have never had Georgian food and I'm really impressed of this restaurant! The restaurant is kind of hidden and tuck away at the corner and looking from the outside the interior looked really dark - we weren't sure that if it was open at first. Parking was limited, and it's a bit tricky to park. The restaurant is pretty small inside but it has a lot of decorations and pictures/paintings. I like that they have samples for desserts and we love it so much that we took another one lol! We ordered Savoury beef boat, chicken boat, and meat pie. The sour dough was really fluffy. I love the beef boat a lot because of the savoury beef, full of flavour. The meat pie is kind of a hit or miss, I think it's a bit too much for me. However, the beef boat alone is def worth the five star! Service is relatively quick with friendly staff.

    Absolutely love this place! I got the savory beef boat and the megruli (cheese pie). The bread boat is fabulous. The bread is light and fluffy with a nice crust. The beef stew and cheese mixture is delicious, and I loved the spices in it. I recommend getting the house sauce with the cheese pie to add a little kick. The service can be a bit slow, but that is because they are making your food on the spot. The dishes came out hot and steaming. They've got a few places to sit inside and outside. I can't recommend this place enough.

    This place was absolutely delicious. I got to try several of their bread boats including the classic, the chicken, the beef, and the bacon & cheese, and every single one was amazing. The bread was fresh, the fillings were rich, and the flavors were incredibly satisfying. We also tried their dessert, which was just as amazing.

    This place is worth the spike in blood sugar, baby! Everything was delicious. Tried a meat pie (I do wish they offered smaller ones since it's a big boy, meant to be shared), a "bread boat" (khachapuri), and beef stew. Even the side bread that came with the beef stew was excellent. Flavorful meats and decadent breads, what more do you need?!

    Adjaruli Khachapuri

    I love Khachapuri and am so happy that Austin has a place making it so well! This was delicious and a huge portion. They make everything fresh and from scratch! Parking is easy and staff is super friendly.

    Breadboat Austin delivers on the magic of Georgian khachapuri, and for cheese-and-egg lovers, it's every bit worth the wait. After years of daydreaming about this legendary "bread canoe", three of my favorite foods all melded together, I finally set out to try it. The journey was more epic than expected: three separate DoorDash mishaps and four long days of anticipation, each delivery drama building suspense rather than frustration. When the warm, golden loaf finally arrived, the first swirl of molten cheese and runny yolk in pillowy dough felt like a victory lap. The classic Adjaruli khachapuri at Breadboat is everything you'd hope, gooey, savory, and deeply comforting. Even compared to Austin's other cheesy carb offerings, the unique funk of Georgian cheese and the ritual of tearing and dipping truly set it apart. All this, after my mini saga, made the first bite an absolute triumph: Breadboat isn't just hype. For those who crave cheese, egg, and bread, it's a must-try - just maybe pick it up in person.

    I was across the street at Shaman when this place was mentioned. We decided to try it for lunch and, boy, we are so glad we did! It is a small but cute place with a nice patio that will be even nicer when the building next door is finished. You order at the counter which is easy and I didn't mind the lack of interaction with someone. There are just 2 busy ladies making everything from scratch in the back. We just ordered the original cheese boat with an extra egg to add some protein and then we got the meat pie. The boat was DELICIOUS! It was hot, cheesy and bready. All the things I wanted it to be. I'm not sure if had that kind of cheese before but it was really good! The spice in the meat pie was addicting and the house sauce was my favorite - get it! Get 2! We will definitely come back!

    I was excited to see another Georgian restaurant pop up in Austin area and had to try it. As their name suggests, they have bread boats or adjaruli khachapuri, but with meat and other toppings which I haven't seen elsewhere. We tried the herbed chicken and savory beef bread boats, the special beets dish, and a megruli cheese pie. I highly recommend the beef bread boat and the cheese pie, which was simple but amazing cheesy bread. The others were good but the chicken tasted like Mexican chicken so it wasn't as special for me and the beets come with a sour plum sauce which I love but the beets themselves were ok and a bit pricy. They have a kiosk to order from and the kitchen is open so the staff if right there to help you with the menu and you can see them making the boats. The space is nice and there's a side patio area that looks nice too.

    I tried the Georgian bread boats for the first time and they were so good! The bread itself was incredibly soft and pillowy, and the melted cheese on top with the beef was perfection. Everything was super cheesy, rich, and unbelievably satisfying. I also loved the plain cheese bread boat, sometimes simple is best, and the cheesiness plus that soft bread was amazing. I wasn't as much of a fan of the meat pie, though. The meat was a bit dry for my taste. Still, the bread boats alone made the meal totally worth it! Also should try their stew. My husband was a big fan of it. Staff were very nice! It's a very casual/chill spot.

    Counter; they have like 7-8 tables inside where you can sit and a parking lot out front

    I really enjoyed bread boat. It's the first Georgian restaurant I've come across in Austin and it's near where I work so I dropped by. The bread boats are of course what they're known for and they look AMAZING but honestly I could tell just by looking at the box it would be WAY too much food for me. I asked if they do a half size and they said no. Instead, I got a bowl of beef stew which comes with a couple pieces of the same bread. I had been having a lot of congestion all week and the soup ended up tasting perfect and being the perfect amount of food. It was also hearty but not too heavy so it sat really well with me despite being congested! And the bread compliments it so, so well. If I find myself really hungry and over that way, I will definitely try the bread boat some time! Just be ready for a LOT of cheese, carbs, and fat (ie heavy, but delicious).

    Walnut pâtes
    Veronica Y.

    The food here is delicious!!!! Bread, cheese and meat... honestly how can you go wrong? The bread is fresh and fluffy, and the filling is generous, creamy, wonderfully seasoned! I mixed it all up before tasting everything individually because I was too busy talking, lol. But the mix was awesome. Also got the walnut pate appetizer which was sooooooo good! The three blobs are mixed with seasonings and each a different veg: beets, carrot, and green bean. Each has a distinct flavor -- I especially loved the green bean one. And it again comes with fresh housemade bread. And the three little peppers are stuffed with even more walnut pate and just so so so good! It's really all as good as it looks in the photos! Must come back for that meat pie --- we saw someone cut into it with a super satisfying crunch sound and rising steam. Everything is really super fresh here. Come, you won't regret it.

    Savory Beef Boat. OMG-amazing!!
    Karla D.

    OMBreadBoat I've died and gone into the savory ether world! The Georgian food is literally out of this world. Just a quick walk from our apartment, this cute little restaurant offers more than meets the eye. My boyfriend ordered the Savory Beef Boat at lunch and I went to hang out with him. Not planning on eating since I have a big dinner later today. I started with "I'll just have a bite" until I was five bites in and literally had to pull myself away. Left to my own devices, I'd inhale the entire thing myself. I kid you not. The house-made bread is baked to perfection in an old world homemade fashion. Crispy crust with a flaky interior that was strong enough to hold ingredients without becoming dense or hard. The ingredients...egg, cheese, and an incredible savory beef with onion, peppers, and authentic Georgian spices. I'm telling all of you right now, this is the stuff dreams are made of. Period. The end.

    Herbed Chicken Boat
    Andrew L.

    Came here for lunch early on a Sunday afternoon. The service was fast and friendly. The indoor space is fairly small, we were able to get seats, but it can get overwhelmed with noise pretty easily. I was surprised at how much takeout business they seemed to have, cheese boats don't strike me as a food that would travel particularly well, but there was a pretty constant flow of noise as a result. If the weather is nice out I'd recommend opting for the outdoor seating I went for the herbed chicken boat and thought it was solid! The cheesy/eggy part worked really well, but I wish the flavoring on the chicken had been a bit stronger. The bread itself was good but had a pretty heavy dusting of flour that I wasn't a huge fan of for some bites I'm intrigued enough to want to come back and try the meat pies, but overall don't think it will be a regular in my rotation. Given the lack of Georgian restaurants in the area I'd recommend giving this a try if you live in the area, but if you're visiting from somewhere that has Georgian food I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to try here

I absolutely love the vibe of this place--it's definitely a high-end Mediterranean restaurant, perfect for special occasions. What really stood out was how beautifully everyone was dressed; it added to the upscale, elegant atmosphere of the entire space. The restaurant offers both indoor seating and a beautiful outdoor seating area, which really elevates the overall experience. The outdoor space, in particular, adds to the charm and makes it a great spot for a relaxed yet upscale evening. Since reservations weren't available, we decided to arrive early, expecting a long wait. Luckily, being a Sunday evening, it wasn't too crowded, and we were seated within about 20 minutes. For drinks, I ordered a Tender Robot Hazy IPA, while my husband went with the Verdant Mai Tai. I was a bit disappointed to learn they only serve canned beer and don't offer draft options, as I personally prefer draft beer and am not a big fan of cocktails, which tend to be too sweet for my taste. For the main course, I had the Heirloom Chicken Thighs, and my husband ordered the Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes. Both dishes were cooked to perfection--flavorful, well-seasoned, and the meat was incredibly tender. That said, the portion sizes felt a bit small considering the price point. We ended the meal with the Sticky Date Cake, and it was hands down the best I've ever had--rich, perfectly balanced, and absolutely delicious. Overall, we had a great experience. Between the beautiful ambiance, flavorful food, and exceptional service, it's a place I'd definitely return to. I'm giving it 4 stars mainly because of the lack of draft beer and the smaller portion sizes for the price, but it's still a fantastic spot worth visiting.

They also serve flatbreads where you can have two different toppings. The food focus is on bold, traditional flavors rather than modern takes on middle eastern foods. On the desserts front, they have an assortment of desserts and several sections of ice cream. I had the baklava, which was surprisingly delicious...it was not eye-squinting sweet like a standard baklava. It was crunchy, flavorful, and had nuts that were substantial. Layla, my server, was so super sweet and welcoming. She pointed out that Usta provides its customers free tea. How cool is that? I cannot remember last time I received a free drink.
