The waitress seemed very frazzled when she took our order, as another few customers came in soon after us. Her eyes kept on darting to them and back to us. It was a bit odd... But soon all was forgiven. I got the cabbage roulette with carrots and spicy walnut paste, and the beetroot purée with walnuts, garlic and spices for a starter. Let me say, the portions are quite hearty for a starter. Both were delicious. I was particularly pleased with the beetroot as it was diced finely. I got the lobio- red kidney beans with walnuts and seasonings with "salad" and bread as well. It's served like a chili in a piping hot clay bowl-like item. The salad is just pickles and pickled veg but I loved it! The bread is just sadly white bread. My husband ordered the stellar Georgian cheese bread- khachapuri- which is just so damn good. It reminds me of stuffed crust Pizza Hut bread I had when I was a kid but SO MUCH BETTER. My husband got the Besides the food, this place gets top marks for giving both a brandy,a glass of white wine AND a Diet Coke on the house. Also we got a jug of water which I was eternally grateful as 90% of restaurants I've been to in London won't. (I drink water like a fish). The house wines- both the white and red- are fantastic. The white is a great dry wine and the red has a full-bodied flavour. Overall we loved it and can't wait to return.

Having recently visited Georgia my friend and I are now obsessed with Georgian food…read more Tbilisi had everything we wanted: Badrijani - aubergines with walnut paste. I actually preferred this version to the many versions we tried in Georgia, not so bitter Ajabsabdali: ratatouille, excellent Khinkali - spicy meat dumplings. Highly recommended although texture not quite as good as in Georgia itself, the filling was great though Lobiani: red bean filled flat bread. Very good although could have been toasted a bit more for my taste (I took some home and toasted it more though, so it all worked out). If this is your first Georgian food experience though, you should go for hachapuri We also got a chicken dish with walnut sauce which I think was called satsivee. To be honest at this point I was too full to cope with it so cannot remember what it was like - pretty good but overall I would focus on the above mentioned starters/khinkali/bread on future visits. That's what I like! And for drinks, plenty of Georgian wine but I went to town the Georgian lemonade. Georgian lemonade actually comes in multiple flavours - my personal favourite is pear but grape and cream (like cream soda) were also delicious. They also have the tarragon flavour I was too chicken to try on our trip...one day....maybe. Highly highly recommended for good quality, authentic Georgian food, drink and polyphonic singing!

Then, it was now our turn to introduce us to our set of friends...may the introductions continue! We really liked it from the moment we sat foot into the restaurant: the decoration is retro and Georgian-movie themed...not that I know anything about Georgian movies. The service on both occasions was friendly and very helpful. And for us helpful was helpful as we needed someone to explain the menu items. Speaking of the menu: when I first thought of Georgian cuisine, I had Russian/Soviet style food in mind. Yet, I was surprised to find the food to be quite "Mediterranean"? Aubergines, bean salads, flaky breads. I would definitely recommend the mezze with the cheese bread. For everything else, trust your waiter.

There was a large (25ish) group of Georgians celebrating something, with toasts we did not understand (but happy to join in) and live Georgian musicians playing (no, we did not understand a word, but happy to join in). On arrival we received a free shot of vodka to set the tone. The Hachapuri and Beetroot puree appetizers were excellent. We ordered each of the three vegetarian dishes on the menu and enjoyed them all. You may not have the good fortune to be on the sidelines of a Georgian party, but the restaurant is well worth going out of your way to visit.

When I first sat down I had my doubts about this place. The upstairs tenant above them were very…read morenoisy and a strange mix of throwback 70s American and Foreign songs was played to cover up the noise. This all changed when the first of the my order arrived, the Borscht (a cabbage/beetroot soup with herbs and sour cream). The soup was seasoned perfectly, ingredients cooked evenly, and simply delicious. The Khinkali (dumpling of sorts that resembled an enlarged steamed Chinese dish called Xiaolongbao) was well seasoned and had a good balance of parsley and meat flavor. The only part that made it rather difficult to eat was a lack of a spoon. Eating the dish with a fork+knife proved to be a challenge and watching the juicy dribble away onto the plate pained me. Overall the food was well prepared and tasted delicious. Aside from the fore mentioned issues, this restaurant deserves a solid 4/5. Edit:5/5 the noise factor was out of the restaurants control and the spoon problem could have been solved by me simply requesting one.

Like the previous reviewers I had passed this little restaurant many times and always wondered what…read moreit would be and taste like inside there...I found out yesterday! The first thing that caught our attention (I was accompanied by another Yelper in fact) was the Yelp sticker in the window! Yeah...and only the Yelp sticker...apparently the business owners have good taste. I've never had Georgian food (and my friend was a Georgian-food virgin as well) and so we were both very excited to find out more about it. We ordered from the small-dishes menu: a meat blini and an order of the Georgian Meze. I have to say, the food was not quite what I expected...but not bad, just different. The taste palette is quite different from the usual Chinese/Indian/French/Italian...but well worth the try. The service was a slow, and the waiter was not really a great sales-person, but he was also all by himself and the restaurant was quite packed. Nevertheless, I would have loved to hear a little bit more about Georgian cuisine in general. Will I come back? Yes, because I have to try the main dishes as well.

Let me start with the positive: it's in London, easy to find, and is centrally located. The…read moreatmosphere is really good and staff is friendly, courteous and welcoming but I felt they were somewhat stressed out. The space is small and it's really filled up with tables to a point where waiters have to navigate gingerly but it IS London and space is $$$$ but they could easily offset it with great food but alas, that wasn't the case. Perhaps, an unsuspecting non Russian tourist might enjoy the experience, but as a native, if I had to use one polite word and not a lot of Russian expletives - dreadful would be it. If you own this place or work there you will know that all pickles came from a jar. You'd know that pastries were not made by you and weren't made today but you don't charge yesterday's prices. Even the bread was ehh. Not going to list the dishes but they all were not that tasty and possibly not made by a Russian cook. Notice, I didn't even use the word "chef" which is what this type of restaurant ought to have. A MAJOR disappointment and an expensive one at that. Don't do this. If you happen to travel to LA, I will make Russian food for you or at least tell you where to go

The four starters and mains I had a chance to try ( no I don't have four stomachs - it was shared between a group of five ;) ) were served in hot clay bowls and plates making it even more authentic. The Meze had an original taste and unusual ingredients. All meet dishes were well cooked, flavoured and nicely decorated and the roast pork was served with a famous unique Georgian plum sauce - heavenly delicious!!! The restaurant is relatively small but very clean and has a nice vibe despite being almost empty. I would have scored this place as four stars however the dessert section was slightly lacking quantity and taste. There were also certain dishes ( like dumplings for example) which have to be eaten in a specific way. Had one of us not been previously to Georgia, we would have ended up struggling with a knife and fork. The deserts were quite expensive as for what they included and I was quite baffled with the 'tea and jam' dish which was indeed a pot of tea with a pot of jam (£4 by the way).

I only tried Khinkali(dumplings) there. They are not really juicy and there is a fat layer of dough.read more

I think every American mother/daughter duo was checking this place out for lunch or high tea. Mom and I opted for the lunch experience in the room called "The Glade." 3 courses, for a very reasonable price. Something like 36 pounds if I remember correctly. We did this over the more pricey high tea, but that certainly looked like a good time as well. That dining room was gorgeous. The food was pretty good. Nothing that absolutely blew my socks off, except for the strawberry dessert. Everything was certainly well done, though. I mean, there's a restaurant with 3 Michelin stars upstairs - the food should be good! Would def return with new people that hadn't been before.

We started with the Korean tofu dumplings + beetroot carpaccio, both were light, perfectly seasoned and lovely starters. Mushroom arancini with carrot ginger coconut broth was well balanced and craveable. Cod brandade was delicious as well but a bit heavy, could only eat half. Pistachio chocolate peanut ganache was the perfect end to a lovely meal. It's a visual spectacle in the best way, and service was lovely as well.
