A great restaurant. The interior is very cozy. Interesting storytelling both about the restaurant itself and about the menu, which, by the way, changes every two months so that guests can try as many dishes as possible from the very cookbook of the early 20th century, which, according to legend, formed the basis for the creation of the restaurant.
The cuisine is author's, Georgian rather in terms of ingredients, in fact closer to European.
After a week, khinkali and khachapuri are just like a breath of fresh air.
Probably the best restaurant in Tbilisi that I visited during two trips.
It was incredibly delicious and beautiful! All the dishes look like works of art. The prices bite a little, but it is absolutely justified. Service, food, interior for 10/10! In honor of my birthday, I also received a free dessert as a compliment. In general, if you are in Tbilisi, be sure to visit this restaurant 😊
An unusual restaurant. The staff is very attentive. A cozy atmosphere. Unconventional, original cuisine. Beautiful dishes. Delicious. The average check is two or three times more expensive than in average restaurants in Tbilisi.
A wonderful restaurant for connoisseurs of fine cuisine. If you want not just to "eat delicious food", but to enjoy the aesthetics of the restaurant and cuisine, then you are here. All the staff is very professional, we were very satisfied.
The prices are above average, but they fully justify themselves
5/5
Great restaurant, excellent service.
I haven't seen such etiquette anywhere, there were 3 plates.
In expensive restaurants, they put 2, and here 3 (for bread and butter), as is correct.
If you go out for a smoke, the waiter brings out an ashtray and wine.
They open the doors there , put a napkin on their feet
In general, it was wonderful 👍
We celebrated our birthday with a small company. Most likely the best place in Tbilisi. Haute cuisine with a hint of Georgian. It's expensive, but definitely worth it. There is no wine list, but the sommelier is willing to offer wines of any price category. The whole company was left in awe. I do not attach photos of the dishes-be sure to try them yourself.
The best restaurant in Tbilisi in my opinion. Everything was perfect, from the taste and design of the dishes to the atmosphere and courtesy of the waiters
The restaurant is very decent. The staff is pleasantly polite, tactful, and professional. The food is standard! The taste, aroma, visual perception are only excellent sensations. A real gastronomic delight!
Let's go after reading the reviews. We were booked, but when they came they wanted to put us in a walk-through cabinet, where there was a hanger and there was a passage to the toilet, after the claim we were transferred to the common room, not a single dish came to us, not even compote. It's all pathos and the statement: "it's delicious." It was not tasty for us, out of 6 people, none.
It is a very atmospheric place, as if you are visiting a Georgian princess, in fact, according to her recipes, the menu is compiled here. Interesting serving of dishes, high service, beautiful table setting, if you want to try another Georgian cuisine and plunge into the refined atmosphere, you are here. They will meet and conduct you at the highest level! The check is above average.
Dear Restaurant Team!
Thank you very much for the perfect dinner organization for my team on 06/28/24 - an unforgettable evening, the most wonderful reviews. Good luck and prosperity to you. We came and we will come.
A chic restaurant with authentic local cuisine. Waiter Maxim will make your dinner perfect. He will tell the history of the restaurant, help with the choice, pick up the wine. I have never been greeted so warmly anywhere else. The check for one came out 144 with a glass of wine, but it reflects the quality.

I was here 7 years ago and then I wrote an enthusiastic review on fb. Then everything was fine: the food, the wine, and the service. But times seem to be changing. The food is delicious, although not so good anymore. An ordinary simple wine, after being kept in a bottle for 3 years after bottling, turned into a bitter mess. The service is good, I didn't notice any intrusiveness. The price tag was deservedly horse, now undeservedly horse. There are restaurants in this price category that are a cut above.
Good afternoon! I was surprised by the reviews 100% after visiting this restaurant. They invented a story with an ancient book that they found, and they are now cooking according to the recipes of this book. The cuisine is far from Georgian, it is more tailored to European .....I did not like anything. Maxim, the eldest in the restaurant, imposes dishes himself, since there is no Russian translation on the menu, he also picks up the wine himself, at prices it turns out to be a complete surprise, the check is sky-high. Outerwear is hung on top of each other on standing hangers, it takes a lot of time to find clothes. Pathetic, not tasty (absolutely not in Georgian) and delicious!!!
A great restaurant, really a restaurant in old Tbilisi. It's very atmospheric. Service, serving, taste. Super, I recommend it. Not cheap, but it's worth it!
Very tasty cuisine. The place is pleasant. We made a surprise in honor of the fact that we had a holiday on this day. The only negative was treated to some water and included in the receipt. Well, it wasn't serious somehow) The waiter Maxim told about the history of the institution, which he also liked very much. We will definitely come back for a new portion of unusual Georgian cuisine
Great place.
Exquisite taste.
The service is very responsive.
Gastronomic journey👍
In general, I don't know what can be distinguished in Georgian cuisine ...
But here we were really pleased!
The food is very tasty, I change the menu 1 time a month. They cook according to some old book from 1904. The service is at a high level, they will tell you everything, show you. The interior of the 20th century is very beautiful. 200 GEL is too much for two main dishes, a snack and compote.
The food is too salty, the waiter Maxim is very intrusive, he sold wine and food not the way they wanted. As a result, then he said, "I told you not to advertise it." There were 650 laras for three people. These are not the top restaurants in the world, as they position themselves. The usual divorce for tourists. The cuisine is NOT Georgian.
A wonderful restaurant.
It's become a little expensive lately, to be honest.
2 soups 3500 rubles :-)))
But delicious, contagion)))))
A restaurant with a history! Beautiful interior.
At the same time, there is a museum, a theater and a concert hall. In which they also do not feed banal food. But there is no point in visiting more than once, it will not be so interesting anymore. Expensive. GEL 150 for dinner for one person.
The restaurant has an exclusive interior, reminiscent of the style of the 19th century. It is rich and atmospheric. The menu of fine cuisine, the prices are appropriate.
The staff is pleasant and polite
The restaurant as a whole is a three-star. The price tag is horse, and tomatoes are like the cheapest of the five. The drinks are too sweet. Only one dish of all has more or less gone…
The show and the legend about the book with terrible food and intrusive staff, the prices of wine are not given immediately, but believe me, then there will be a surprise for you) the dishes are heated, apparently someone prepares them for them, pour liters of sauce so that you can somehow eat!
I rarely leave reviews, but I can't help but write - I liked it. The service, the atmosphere, the food - the level is high. Yes, it's not cheap, but it's worth it.
Great restaurant! Georgian cuisine is not familiar and traditional, as in most Georgian restaurants, but based on rare ancient recipes. Excellent table setting, original serving of dishes. The restaurant is focused more on the European visitor. Delicious, beautiful, expensive.
Everything is on top, including prices. The idea, the atmosphere, the interior, the dishes, the waiters, the kitchen, the sommelier, the music - there is nothing to complain about. This is a unique place, and it's worth a visit, but get ready to leave a round sum for such a pleasure! It's worth it)
