First time here and I'll definitely be back. Our waitress was amazing.. Very welcoming, attentive, and helpful. Here's what we ordered: Cheese Plate & Charcuterie Board - Would absolutely order again. Great variety and perfect for sharing. Zhengalov Hatz - Loved it. Grilled Khachapuri - Solid and satisfying. Mediterranean Salad - Refreshing with a great mix of herbs that blended perfectly together. Khinkali (Fried Cheese, Beef, and Mushroom) - All were amazing. Definitely a must-order. Pork, Osetrina, Shrimp, and Lamb Skewers - Not bad at all, but probably wouldn't order them again. Overall, really enjoyed the experience, food, and service. Looking forward to coming back :)
We came for a light snack before dinner It was my first time trying Armenian-Georgian soup dumplings (the khinkali). We tried the lamb and the beef boiled ( traditional way) and then we tried the mushrooms fried. I would say traditional method is ok but those mushroom ones fries were excellent so I'm thinking them fried must be even better. The dumplings are quite big but they're mostly empty with a bit of ground meat and a thin broth. It's tasty but if you're expecting a soup dumpling like DTF (din tai fung) then this isn't it. It's heartier and less refined than the DTF version. The hummus is great and so was the khachapuri (Georgia egg and cheese bread boats). The staff was super nice and very accommodating to our family. We had a bunch of rambunctious kids and they're were super nice with them. The restaurant is nice and very spacious it can definitely have some big parties in there. They have a full bar and the prices are reasonable for their drinks. Would def come back
We had several delicious variations of meat and cheese and dough that were very good. Wasn't really feeling the white tablecloth setting/vibe. We thought they would have a fun selection of Georgian wine including orange wine but that was not the case. The one Georgian dry white wine and one Georgian dry red wine we tried were not good, but I guess they were kind of cheap at $10/glass. The only issue is they accidentally poured us an extra glass of red, took it away from our table, and still charged us for it (and we didn't realize until after we'd paid and left). We also wanted to try a little baklava at the end and they made it sound like the pieces were really small so we ordered two not realizing they were massive and $10 each! It was a...fine restaurant but I do not think I will be coming back.
Khinkali House 8/10 Found this gem one Saturday when we were in town. Originally, we were going to this other place down the street but even on a Saturday at ~2 pm, the other place had almost an hour wait. Regardless, this place was amazing. No wait around 2 pm and really quick service. Famous for their dumplings, you can really see why. We grabbed the mushroom ones, both a steamed and fried. I do recommend the steamed. You're able to really taste and savory the soup. The cucumber salad and bread were highlights as well. Pro-tip: bring a group here so you can share things family style! Service: 5/5 Food/Drinks: 4/5 Price: 4/5 Atmosphere: 3/5
The food was not what we expected. We had one of each Khinkali dumpling (boiled lamb, boiled beef, fried mushroom, friend cheese), the pickled veggies, borscht, and zhengyalov hatz. The salted chickpeas were a strange app, but could've be also we aren't regular connoisseurs of this cuisine. Maybe we incorrectly came in thinking this was comparable to Din tai fung which it definitely was not. Our experience here felt like every dish was an appetizer. The best dish we had was the zhengyalov hatz which is probably purchased from the place nearby that only does this and unlikely to be prepared in house. We left full but unsatisfied. Most of the food was heavy / greasy to us and no real main entree. The best Khinkali of the ones we got was the steamed beef. It didn't have a whole lot of flavor still. We likely won't be coming back because this type of food I guess just isn't for us, but clearly they have a lot of supporters who like it so it just comes down to personal presence for us. We came on a weekday late lunch hour and it was not too busy and service was great. The first water glass brought to me was chipped in two places but was replaced when I mentioned it. Definitely should be doing checks before putting it on the table. They could do much better on presentation. It's just - couple wet dumplings laying there on a white plate. It's what it would look like if I were to serve this at home"m. When you pay to eat out, you expect a little extra of an experience that you wouldn't be getting at home - for the preparation, plating, and presentation. Feedback is to add better presentation of your food, it could help it taste better for having the extra visual appeal.
Food was good but the service was absolutely abhorrent. We ordered beef shish kebab, it only came with one sad excuse layer of lavash that was already soaked. We asked for more lavash and they did not disclose that they would charge us for it. They charged us 4 dollars for a sad amount of lavash(see photo below). Genuinely baffling. It did not end there. We also ordered a Caesar's salad. They brought out fries instead, and at the time we thought they were just being nice so we didn't say anything about it. The salad never came out and the server made the poor excuse of saying that they heard us say "seasoned fries". (What is the "seasoned" portion I don't even know it was regular fries.). Do better khinkali house. Train your employees. Very disappointing.
Came here today for lunch. Never had Georgian food before. So I was quite excited to see what that's all about. I really like the interior. Its quiet. It looks elegant. I like the exposed ceiling with the chandeliers. There's also seating outside as well. They have a pretty good menu. With so many Eastern European dishes and drinks. We ordered the following: 1. Mashed red bean (Lobi Pashtet)- 4 little clumps of red beans. Reminded me of raw meat. It was a good appetizer. Good seasoning. Not over powering. But pleasing to the palate. 2. Khinkali- they have 4 different types of these large Georgian dumplings. And they have them either fried or traditional, which is boiled. Reminds me of Xiao Long Baos or Chinese soup dumplings. But just a lot larger. Good flavors. Good amount of filling. I prefer the fried ones better though in that it held its shape easier than the boiled ones. The beef and lamb ones are a lot better than the cheese and mushroom ones. There's definitely a technique to eating them!! 3. Quinoa salad- this was really good. I enjoyed the slices of green apples. Added some sweetness and tartness. It was light and refreshing. 4. Beef skewer- the beef was tough. Maybe because we ordered it medium well. It wasn't that great. 5. Khachapuri (regular)- it was small. Like a little loaf of cheesy bread. Bread was crunchy on the outside but very cheesy and warm on the inside. 6. Chicken wings- this was one of the bigger disappointments. $15 for 4 anemic tiny chicken wings. Not crunchy at all. Extremely salted. And they just looked really sad. They belong more in the dollar per wing sode of things. 7. Okroshka drink- a yogurt based Russian drink. Had lots of dill and cucumber in it. It was interesting and unique. 8. Honey cake- this was really good. Light, fluffy, not crazy sweet. It was just really small though. 9. Armenian coffee- little cups of coffee with the grounds on the bottom. It wasn't strong at all, like turkish coffee. It was kind of weak and anemic. 10. Chickpeas- they had a bowl of this on the table to begin thr meal with. They were really tasty! Cooked well, had a nice bite to them. And flavors were just popping! Overall the food was good. Is it authentic? I think so. I have nothing to compare it too. But it was new and unique to me. I love the vibes here. They use that ugly butcher paper for the tables like Raffis does. Food does come out quickly here. Its family style type of eating here and we did order a lot of food, but the bill does reflect that. They charge a non cash pay fee which I find to be upsetting, because who payd cash these days...... And they didn't tell me about it beforehand. Must try here that we ordered would be the quinoa salad and the honey cake. I would never order the chicken wings again. The okroshka I was glad to try but wouldn't order it again. Everything else was OK to pretty good. If you've never had Georgian food or Armenian food, I'd definitely recommend it.
Im a fan. I've been here a few times and have enjoyed each experience. When I think Armenian food, this is the place I think of. Grilled Meats - it's all good. My favorite will always be the lamb with the salmon following as a close second. Dumplings - I like that you can order per unit so you can try a variety of different flavors. Honey Cake - my absolutely favorite. Say yes, every time. General Abiance - I prefer sitting outside. It's a bit bright inside. The outdoor area is more vibey and a bit more intimate.
First time having Armenian/Georgian food. My friend took us here so that we could finally try it. We ordered: Khachapuri- Georgian Cheese bread Mediterranean Salad - Tomatoes and cucumbers tossed with herbs, olive oil and spices Khinkali (Boiled) - Beef, Cheese and Mushroom Khinkali (Fried) - Beef, Cheese and Mushroom Napoleon Mikado Overall, everything is excellent. I loved the Khachapuri and the fried Khinkali. The Napoleon was also great. Would definitely come back and try other items - specially the skewers.
Dinner night with the family here. I tried their zhyangalov hats, cheese khinkali (fried), and mushroom khinkali (boiled), and we got a Mediterranean salad to share. Salad was good; refreshing and not over salted/seasoned. The zhyangalov hats was ok; I ordered it only because they were sold out on the khachapouri (which I def want to try next time). I thought there was more bread than greens (personal preference). The khinkali were great though. Fried cheese is the only way to go for the cheese and was an excellent pair to the boiled mushroom. Mushroom was deliciously juicy and very well seasoned (almost a little bit too much salt but the dumpling dough adjusted for it). The cheese was excellent. It was pretty busy on a Saturday night, with very few open tables and a bit loud/rowdy. Our waitress was really kind and patient the whole evening. Food came out reasonably paced (the khinkali was the slowest component). Def would come again. I'd do a redo of the khinkali and hopefully try the khachapouri next time.
The food was so delicious, sadly it was ruined by the poor service and staff attitude. Not only were the portions so tiny- i mean come on! 10 pieces of pelmeni for $23+!! We were seated right away but didn't get menus until 10 minutes later. Got our food 15 minutes later and before our drinks- which we had to ask for twice. The short slavic girl with a brown pony tail was our server and didn't come check in us not once. Didn't receive our appetizer and still got charged for it. When we mentioned it to her all she said was "okay" and changed our bill and acted salty toward us after the confrontation. I wish the service was as good as the food was. It was nice having to get a taste of home but the u professional services ruined that experience.

The food was surprisingly delicate and carefully prepared. The service was outstanding - the lovely Hispanic lady guided us course by course and gave us a well-rounded meal. The portions were large enough that my family enjoyed several dishes afterwards. (There is a clickbait review on this thread that is so noxiously self-serving I was compelled to write this review to cancel it out. If you're reading this, you'll probably know what I mean. Weird to use _Yelp_for clout. But I guess it takes all kinds!) read more

I had this place on my to-try list but never got around to trying until today. I was in the area and was picking up some food from another restaurant when I decided to pick up some popular items from Khinkali House. After reading reviews, I went with the khachapuri and steamed beef khinkali. It took about 30 mins for the food to be ready for pick-up (although I did call right when the restaurant opened so that could be the reason). I had to stop by the Galleria nearby to pick up something, so by the time I arrived home, the food did get a bit cooler. The khachapuri was still warm and flaky, although smaller than I had imagined. If you are a cheese lover, you will love this. The bread was very flaky and the insides were nice and oozy cheese. The khinkali was also very good - it reminds me of Xiao Long Bao, but with different meat and spice. Be careful when biting into it, as there is so much juice ( way more than what I'm used to from Xiao Long Bao) , which I really enjoyed. I did read from the reviews and from online to not eat the top dough part of the khinkali, but my sister did not take my advice and bit into it. She does not recommend anyone to repeat her mistake. I'm keeping this place on my to-try again list, because I can only imagine how the food would taste if I had it piping hot and fresh. read more
I wanted to try a cuisine I'd never had before. I was meeting up with a friend who lives near Glendale. I never had Georgian food before, and didn't recognize any of the items on the menu, so I decided to try Khinkali House with my wife and my friends. Naturally, being called Khinkali House, we got khinkali. I got one cheese and one beef khinkali. I also got lentil soup, okroshka, the honey cake, and an Armenian coffee. The khinkali are designed to be eaten with hands, as one of the other patrons explained to us. The other patron also recommended adding freshly ground pepper, so we did that as well. As instructed, I ate it with my hands. It was like a big soup dumpling, full of soup on the inside, and it was super delicious. The cheese khinkali was ok, but the beef khinkali was absolutely amazing. The lentil soup was thick and very creamy, I love the crisps they serve with the soup. The okroshka tasted like the yogurt and cucumber dip in Greek cuisine, as a drink, so it was ok for me. The honey cake was great, as was the Armenian coffee. The atmosphere is very friendly, and the food is great. Never had Georgian food prior to this experience, and can't wait to have it again. read more

If I had ordered the only Khinkali Ground Beef, it would have been 5 stars Khinkali were delicious. But we have ordered also Khachapuri and Lamb Chops. Guys, almost fell down laughing from the size of the portions. I have never seen such small dishes anywhere before. Please find the photos attached to compare. Even more, Khachapuri was burned down and the cheese inside was extra sour. Chops were so small that we're not even able to understand the taste. Service was good. Ambiance is unremarkable. read more

Ok, actually it's not Georgian food (except for Khinkali). I've been to Georgia 2 times and tried local cuisine. It's actually one of my favorite cuisines, but if you miss real Georgian food, choose different place. Khinkali are fine, but anyway they are twice less tasty than in Kutaisi (Georgian city of Khinkali) Cheese plate is mostly made of vegetables, there's almost no cheese Khachapuri (cheese bread) is completely different from the real ones! It's not khachapuri at all. Actually there are many types of khachapuri: 1. Mingrelian (cheese on top) 2. Imeruli (cheese inside) 3. Adjarian (filled with cheese and eggs) 4. Penovani (square and puffy) 5. Gurian (like Imeruli, but with shape of ) I hoped to find at least one of them, but they have only fried cheese and bread. And it wasn't delicious at all Prices are not reasonable for portion sizes and taste. I had bigger expectations about this place. I don't recommend visiting this place even if you have never been to Georgia. read more

I had been wanting to try this place for about a year and finally brought myself on a date to do so. I love it's almost hidden area, it really makes you feel like you've unlocked something special. I ordered the mushroom and cheese Khinkhali. Very delicious! I was not expecting the cheese to be that good! The salmon skewers were grilled to perfection although I will say one of the four pieces isn't taste as fresh as the others but it's forgivable. I was also given a small bowl of salty chickpeas to start. I wasn't sure what to do with them but I will say they were a fun thing to munch on and mix with my choices! Definitely recommend this place for a different experience. Service made me feel like I was a fancy person out on a fancy person lunch. Thank you to my server Jenya and all the other staff for making me feel special! read more

Our planet is the home to a never-ending list of ethnic groups and cultures scattered among the seven continents and its respective countries with an even longer list of food/beverage/meal/menu options. What is one food that crosses all borders, seas and mountains and is revalent in every single country? A dumpling: a mound of dough often filled with meat, vegetables or cheese and either fried, boiled, or steamed. We have pierogies, wantons, gyoza, kreplach, ravioli; and the list goes on and on. Georgians have their own famous dumpling, the khinkali, which is often filled with a protein and spices; either steamed or fried and is very similar to its Chinese counterpart in appearance. Although I am Celiac and unfortunately am cut off from the dumpling world (waaa); I DO love Middle Eastern Food. Khinkali House in Glendale specializes in these dumpling treats but also offers other traditional fair I was eager to try. Unfortunately, I had one of the most uncomfortable dining experiences of my entire life. Khinkali House is located minutes from the Glendale Galleria by the major intersection of Brand/Broadway on Artsakh Avenue. Although access is down a brick paved alley-way in between buildings (this is actually quite charming!); street signage is available and is next to underground (paid) parking. Initially, I was optimistic about my visit to Khinkali House as I found the alleyway and Khinkali House's outdoor seating to be quite inviting. Oh boy, was I wrong! The first red flag happened immediately at the hostess stand as my dining partner and I arrived on a Sunday afternoon. The young Middle Eastern hostess barely even looked up at us, didn't smile, say hello and seemed as disgusted as if we hadn't showered in weeks. We were seated in a full restaurantof Middle Easterners and were literally the only white people in attendance and trust me: everyone let us know we were outcasts with stares. Our table was a small wobbly table for two with a bad leg by the bathroom. I mean literally: next to the bathroom door. Both my dining partner and I immediately knew there was an issue because we were not of Middle Eastern descent (let's stress that I am Eastern European from Hungary and am super tan with olive-skin, dark brown hair and eyes: I am actually as dark as the Armenians in the restaurant if not more). Staff walked by our table what felt like hundreds of times and we waited about 15+ minutes before even receiving menus and having drink orders taken by a young lady waitress who was equally rude and obviously would rather us go anywhere else to eat. We should have just left then and there. The menu is NOT extensive and Khinkali House is probably best for the actual khinkali dumplings. Otherwise there are some appetizers, skewers, salads and soups to choose from but offerings are limited. We had to wait another 20 years before our order was taken but when the waitress finally decided to visit us; we ordered the Cheese Plate appetizer (chanakh cheese served both plain and herb-crusted, fresh tomatoes, radishes and herbs); while my dining partner ordered that Pork Skewer ($10) and I went with Lamb Chops (New Zealand Lamb Chops, marinated and grilled - $15). The Cheese Plate is very rustic (I am used to this from my own Hungarian plates) and consisted of a whole tomato slices, sliced radishes, some whole basil leaves and the chanakh cheese. Although not exactly what I think of when I hear, 'cheese plate'; I enjoyed the garden-fresh element and the cheese spreads were delicious almost like a cross between feta, ricotta and goat. The lamb chops and pork skewer arrived together served on a lavash-style bread served with sliced, fried potato slices and a red dipping sauce that was a glorified ketchup. My dining partner literally laughed at the rabbit food portion of the food: it was basically a snack. However, the potatoes were extraordinary and my lamb chops were delicious - not the best I've had but quite tender and tasty for $15. I don't eat pork products so didn't try the pork skewer but my dining partner said it was only so-so. It took another lifetime before we could flag down the waitress for the check which was still followed by "Get out" - looks from everyone else inside the restaurant. She's lucky she got tipped. Long story short, I am 100% accusing Khinkali House of discrimination and racism. I haven't felt this uncomfortable or poorly treated in ANY of the other ethnic restaurants in Los Angeles and I've lived here for almost 14 years at the time of this review. If you view the other reviews, other ethnic groups and skin colors have also had similar complaints and experiences so it wasn't just us. Khinkali House apparently should be avoided unless you're Middle Eastern and truly needs a business revamp. Their food isn't that great anyway. Absolutely horrible business and I would give negative stars if I could. read more

I'd been meaning to stop by this spot for a while now and finally got around to it! Interior is very clean and spacious- there was lots of room to sit and nice music choices as well We started off with the Khachapuri which was warm and toasty, the cheese inside oozed onto the plate and was very delicious I also got the cheese and mushroom khinkalis (fried and boiled) and both were to par! The boiled khinkali resembles a soup dumpling and both types tasted great with sour cream For dessert, we tried the special honey cake and mikado which were both just sweet enough! I will warn my fellow foodies with a weaker stomach- go easy on the Georgian cheese!! It is delicious but I had a stomachache for a day or 2 after because I had too much Overall a great place to try Georgian cuisine for the first time read more

Dined here many years ago and loved it, so I was really looking forward to coming here for lunch. Service was good, help was provided in navigating the menu, and the food came out very quickly. The menu itself was very a la carte. You want bread? You're paying extra, pickled vegetables? Extra. Their bread is good so we got it and it didn't disappoint. The rest was pretty meh. Had one of each dumpling, beef, mushroom, and cheese. Had the beef boiled and the other two fried. Fried Cheese dumpling was my favorite. We also ordered the lentil kofta and chicken satsivi. First off I did not know they were served cold. The lentil kofta was incredibly bland. Some pickled vegetable or sauce, anything would have been nice. The chicken satsivi was very tasty. Glad we paid for bread or I don't know how we would have eaten that-it definitely needs to go with something. Dumplings were all good, but again, they could have used some extras, sauce, pickled veg, anything to give it some oomph. We also had the mushroom medley, good, but still fairly bland. In hindsight I wish I orders the extra sides, but that all adds up. Maybe with a larger party you can get more items that help give the dishes some flavor, but for two people, it got expensive pretty quickly. Given the huge amount of restaurants in the area, I'd pick somewhere else. read more

The restaurant - now at 113 Artsakh Ave and called Khinkali House - is terrific. Very friendly, helpful, and attentive servers and delightful dumplings -- soupy and flavored wonderfully. Other items in the menu are tasty, too - I loved my chicken skewer, Thumbs up! (Try all the dumplings, both boiled and fried. ) However, The food is kinda overpriced as the portions are small . In general , the food is good and the service too. read more

My first foray into Georgian food. My husband and I wandered in after seeing a movie at Laemmle nearby and strolling to enjoy the block's holiday decor. The boiled beef and pork dumpling was the star of the evening - flavorful, soupy, light, and tender. The bread stuffed with greens was really tasty too, especially with butter spread on top. We also tried the boiled mushroom dumpling which was very earthy and not as complex tasting as the beef. And we sampled a couple fried dumplings - beef with pork and cheese. While the fried ones were tasty and easier to eat by hand (the traditional way according to our wonderful server), we preferred the boiled beef dumpling across the board. My Moscow Mule was nicely balanced. Everyone on the staff was very sweet and our server didn't miss a beat. It felt like visiting another country or going to a friend's house from another culture who was excited to share foods from their homeland. I'd happily return to try more of their country's cuisine. read more

This is a Georgian restaurant and I don't mean the state of Georgia. The restaurant is located off the street in between Brand and Louise. It is not a very casual table, I was glad I was not in shorts or flip flops. We were immediately greeted and sat. There are many tables inside and a few tables in a covered patio area. Since it was a pleasant night we sat outside, the patio was a little dark but it was pleasant. The bus boys were helpful but the waitress was in charge of the entire restaurant on Tuesday. Our waitress was very friendly and knowledgeable about the food. We ordered the popular dishes and thought it was an interesting change of pace. We had to ask for the bill. My favorite dish was the Khachapuri, it was served on a skewer. The thin bread crust was crispy and the cheese inside was melted and flavorful. I could have ordered my own and not shared. Yum! The dumplings were large and tasty, we were told to use the top as a handle and not eat the handle. The traditional way of boiled was perfect for the soupy beef, we even ate it on a spoon. The cheese dumpling was nice fried but not too crispy. We will come again. read more

Dear Diane R,…
Not sure if this restaurant has switched owners or just names but it seems to be different place now however the type of food is the same. These are hands down the best dumplings I've ever tried. These dumplings are the size of your fist and served either boiled or fried and filled with juicy meats or delicious cheese. I travel from far away to eat here and it is definitely worth the drive when I take my first bite into one of the juicy dumplings they serve! I have shared this restaurant with several people and highly recommended to anyone looking to try a dumpling that will for sure blow your mind. read more
Our favorite Georgian dumplings place!! If you are ever in Glendale this is the place to go! If you love dumplings you have to try khinkali style dumplings they are soooo amazing!! My bf and I discovered this Georgian restaurant a couple of years ago and we are still very crazy about their soupy dumplings! The nice restaurant is kind of hidden because it's not located on a main street but rather tucked away inside a plaza. The place is very spacious with plenty of round tables perfect for big groups. There have two options for dumplings either fried or boiled, both of which are very good and each dumpling is only $2.50!!! They only have beef, mushroom and cheese type of dumplings. They also have other entrees like kabobs which look really good but every time we come here we are simply craving their very soupy yummy dumplings! I ordered all the different fillings and both fried and boiled. First of all the dumplings are the size of a baseball!! And they are very filling! I think my favorite was the beef boiled dumpling and the cheese fried one. The boiled dumplings are very chewy and light. You have to be careful when eating them because the filling is very hot. Also, the tasty soupy juice inside the dumpling oozes out with every bite and the challenge is to try and eat the filling without making a mess!! The fried dumplings are easier to eat but again they are also filled with delicious juices. I highly recommend trying both!! read more

This is my first review in the usa. But I really liked the khinkali house. I didn't expect it to be so good. We were with my wife and friends company on Sunday, very nice and friendly hostess found us a table despite the fact that it was full and people were waiting outside. Then we were served by a waitress Kalina and she was very helpful and attentive, I noticed that the staff works harmoniously, which is important to me. We didn't have to wait long We ordered khinkali with meat and cheese in boiled and fried form, we absolutely loved it! It is definitely worth a try, I will come again and call my friends. We also had pork and chicken and lamb skewers, they were also delicious, but we thought they were small and there were not enough potatoes. There should be more of these delicious dishes. Also Honey cake for dessert completed our pleasant impressions! I would like to thank Khinkali House for such a wonderful evening read more

I love the ambiance of this restaurant. Was excited that my daughter brought me here as a welcome treat. Unfortunately, Irina, who served us has an attitude problem, rude with a terrible customer service. After taking our order, I asked her, I would love to have my wine first thing. She responded, you can go to the bar and they will give it to you right away. Lastly, I asked the bill from this other server (who looks like mexican), and Irina came with the bill placed it on our table and said she'll be back. We were waiting.... and finally recognized her sitting at the bar, eating!! Ok... until finally the other server (with a blonde hair) came and I said, thank you that you replaced her (our waitress), and she replied, oh! She's taking a break! I'm like in my head, REALLY?! She could have had the courtesy to inform us like, someone will be with you shortly or I'm on my break now somebody will be with you shortly, whatever! Instead of letting us wait.... now I must say that her type of customer service is how you lose a LOT of customers! I highly suggest that she needs to take customer service training. I feel sad because this restaurant or every restaurant deserves to be cared for, deserves the love and concern by the employees treating it like their own. All the best, Khinkali. Hope you fix this problem asap before it's too late. read more

I have not met a dumpling I did not like. True story. So, when my friend suggested a dumpling house for dinner one night, guess who was the first to RSVP? That's right, this girl. This was my first foray into Georgian dumplings and my mind is blown. First of all, these dumplings are like mutant size packed to the skins with filling. Second, the flavors were tongue tingling. Every bite was delicious down to the nub. Ground beef dumplings (boiled)- Imagine a Xiao Long Bao, but 10x in size. When you first bite into it, make sure you are slurping up the broth inside. Adds so much depth to the dumpling. Meat was seasoned well. Ground beef dumplings (fried)- Dumpling skin was crispy and filling was still juicy. Similar to the boiled dumplings but less broth inside. Mushroom dumplings (fried)- This was my favorite of all the dumplings we ordered. The mushrooms were tender and flavored so well. Cheese dumplings (fried)- Deep fried cheesy, gooey deliciousness. The cheese was oozing out after every bite. Khachipuri- Again, cheesy, gooey awesomeness. Need I say more?! Steak skewer- A little skimpy on the meat but flavored well. It was a little tough and well done because of the small cuts of meat. I would suggest skipping this and ordering another four dumplings. It's almost the same price. Sturgeon skewer- Nice size portion but it was grilled a little too well for my liking. Blinchik (mushroom)- The mushroom filling might be the same as the mushroom dumpling filing. But it was still delicious. Located on a side street right off of Broadway, there is a parking structure to the right of the restaurant. There is indoor and outdoor patio seating. read more

Hello I was wondering if any of the meats served at the restaurant is kosher or halal? Thanks in advance!
Hello Nima, unfortunately, none of the meats served at the restaurant are kosher or halal. Thanks!
Do you not have a liquor license?
Hello Yulia, of course, we have a full alcohol license. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to sell any alcohol at the restaurant.
When I call nobody picks up the phone?
Depends on when you're calling, the servers usually answer the phone but when you call on times when there's a lot of people at the restaurant it will take a little bit till someone picks up. Or if you're calling before 11.
What's the dress code?
There is no dress code me and my family come there in all sorts of clothes and they never said anything.
Is there anything that might be safe to enjoy here for someone with nightshade allergies (tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, peppers including red pepper spices)?
Are you open for dine in?
They are open for dine-in, but it is outdoor seating only.
