I had to think a bit before deciding how many stars to give to this this new entry in Munich's restaurant scene. I'd give 5 to the food and 3 to the décor/atmosphere/service.
5 food stars: I had never eaten Georgian before and I was surprised with the variety of dishes this corner of the world has to offer. I ordered random, three Georgian specialties I had no idea about and I was positively surprised: the first was a beetroot-walnut-cilantro dip, the second steamed dumplings filled with cheese, the third a black bean stew with cilantro. All very tasty and original in the combination of flavours. I also got to try some of what my friends ordered and a bread filled with cheese, also very good. And the freshly baked Georgian bread, OMG, I could've eaten tons of it. There were quite a few vegetarian options, all clearly indicated on the menu with a little green leaf symbol next to it.
3 atmosphere/service stars: let's face it, if you like this place you will go back for the food not for the atmosphere/decor which is really basic and a bit tacky I must be honest. Differently from my friends who were disappointed with the service, I must say for me the guys there were just authentic not impolite. Personally I prefer this mediterranean approach to customers than the totally fake one in most restaurants here where waiters all smiley will ask you was it gooood??? And before you start answering they are already gone (=they really don't give a sh*t :-)))
So the average is 4 stars. I liked this place and I will go back. read more
