This review is mostly for their private catering service services, which is held on the top floor…read moreof the restaurant. I was invited to attend a private service here (for a repast). It feels a little strange for me to write this review, given I was there for a bigger purpose. However, it's still a restaurant that serves food and I have opinions, so I guess this review is still appropriate. I would say this place comfortably seats 50 people. The food was good and they also have options for coffee/tea and an open bar. My favorite items were the garden salad and baked salmon dish. The staff were also very friendly and efficient throughout the event. Given that this location is only a three minute walk from the church that I was attending service for, I think it's a great option for anyone that wants to host post church related events. The stairs are pretty steep though so I don't think it's ADA accessible. However, maybe there was an elevator that I may have missed . I'm not too sure.

Food: Food is delicious here! We were a group of 5 and were able to try a variety of appetizers and…read moreentrees. For appetizers, we tried the escargots, French onion soup, calamari, and pate. Fresh bread (sliced baguette) and butter is also served after you order. For entrees, we had the pork chop, strip steak, and salmon. All dishes were excellent; I would highly recommend the French onion soup, pate, and pork chop. Overall, everything was very well made and you likely won't have a disappointing dish here. Service: Service was wonderful; our server was friendly and attentive. The manager/owner was very welcoming as well and checked in on us during the meal. Ambiance: This is a small restaurant but has a good number of tables that can accommodate both small and large groups. Both indoor and outdoor seating are available. The restaurant gets pretty packed during peak dinner time so a reservation is recommended. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant!

Rest of sitting area is narrow. Our server was amazing! She made sure everything went smooth and we were taken care of. Food was good for the most part, only confusion was beef stroganoff with would've been a good beef ragu, very tender meat, just not stroganoff. Potato pancakes were bland and very very oily, paired with fried pork belly made it a very heavy dish. Kebab was good. Octopus in the salad was decent. Overall it's a good spot to try. I'd call first to make sure they don't have a private event.

I ate their mixed mofongo which definitely filled me up. I also had fried tostones served with a garlic sauce on the side.

I enjoyed the meal and would definitely try their other savory dishes.

My name is Vladimir B., we visited this restaurant Sunday, 09,13 for birthday. This place is…read morefantastic from all points of view. It is decorated in very interesting, typical Georgian stile. Food is 11 from 10 scale, very fresh, with all authentical spices , taste of everything we ordered was just yummy, very delicious.

The place was okay overall, but the experience was disappointing. We had reserved a table, and when…read morewe arrived and said we were four people, the owner and staff looked at each other for some reason before finally seating us. The table we were given was in an uncomfortable spot near the passageway to the back. We asked if there was another table available on the other side, but the owner said no because all tables were reserved. However, when we were leaving, several tables were still available, which made the situation feel unfair. The service was slow, the food was just okay, and the owner did not come across as pleasant or welcoming. Overall, not the best experience.

You would never know what this place is due to lack of actual signage on it, and weakling by you'd think it's a grab and go of some kind BUT NOT AT ALL!! This place whatever we ordered which was a lot have great flavors and were perfectly cooked . The start of the show was also unfortunately the one that disappointed as well. So the lobster new berg flavors were amazing I'd want to order it over and over but I will never again either . Portion is abnormally small, and for the price of 40$ you definitely would expect a lot more and also seems as if the lobster was also overly chopped and not enough in the dish . The burgers were great Stroganoff was amazing And the gnocchi the duck ragu But every item are over small in portions unfortunately So if you want greys flavors or even amazing flavors but are a light eater then this is your spot

I went with a friend for dinner recently. I liked it--my friend had mixed feelings on it. Our…read morestarter (which we shared) was a roasted beets salad, and my friend thought it didn't taste as fresh as it could be. We both thought the pasta was very good--she had the tagliatelle with mushroom, and I had the Pappardelle Bolognese which I thought was excellent. Saved some and it still tasted good the next day. We also had coffee and shared a slice of chocolate mousse cake. (It was good) The service was okay, they were nice--possibly could have come over a little bit more during the meal to see if we needed anything. It was not very crowded in there at all when we were there. I'm up for giving them a chance to improve and become more seasoned, especially because I thought the meal was good. Will go again sometime.

**review is for Hanh's Banh Mi pop up only, never tried the pasta here**…read more I was so pleasantly surprised to see a new banh mi (and pho) menu pop up in this neighborhood, but a bit skeptical as it's located inside an Italian/pasta restaurant. Turns out the #1 classic banh mi is actually pretty damn good and decently priced at $9.75 (cash only). Could maybe use a little more veggies but hey, I'm not complaining. The bread was fresh and crisp and *didn't* scratch the roof of my mouth. If you're in the area definitely worth stopping in for and I hope it sticks around. Our host and server did say it was gonna be around "for the foreseeable future" which sounds promising! Personally the #2 (roast pork) was just ok, not really worth the extra $1.25 compared to the #1. Pho can also be skipped - lacked flavor and portion is quite small. It's what you'd expect for the area. They even have Viet iced coffee ($5) but it's not as strong and concentrated as it's supposed to be. Basically I'd return for just the #1 sandwich alone but that alone is worth it!

The food is solidly okay, but I am giving them an extra star based on the service I received…read more When I first arrived, I was advised that there was a large party at the restaurant. Normally, that would be a red flag as that means I would be largely ignored throughout the night. Instead, multiple servers came to check on me regularly, chatting with me, giving me recommendations on what is good to eat, and so on. No, I have never tried Georgian cuisine before. Uzbek and Russian do not count. This cuisine is similar to both but it has its own unique characteristics. The soup I got first is hearty with good spice. It comes with two pieces of bread which help clean up the rest of it. This is something I would appreciate more if it were colder outside. Definitely not something for the summer months. The Chanakhi, or lamb stew, is a little disappointing. Very tomato heavy, I could hardly taste the lamb. The aromatics completely overpower the whole stew. Even the side bread has no taste because of the heavy tomato aroma. Khachapuri, a popular cheese bread from Georgia, is insane. Cheese, egg, butter, swirl it up and dip. More restaurants are starting to catch onto this addictively fattening dish, but this one does a nice job with it. The portion is a little small, but since it was just me, I was able to eat most of it before tapping out since the rest was slop on a plate. -- Would I come back? Probably not so fast. Nargis, an Uzbek restaurant up the road, does a better job for a better price point. Good service is nice, but if the food is okay, I feel no need to run back, especially since this is not a cuisine I would run back for anyway. I am happy I tried it, now I can continue on with my day.
