Nice to have a Georgian cuisine option nearby. Service was great, our server spoke fluent Russian. 20% tip automatically added to every bill no matter how large your party. Standouts: $26 Khachapuri Adjaruli | Boat-shaped cheese bread with butter and an egg. - delicious and unique, can see why it's so popular and their signature dish! $16 Artichoke with Baje | Fried artichoke, walnut sauce, tashmijab (cheese melted into mashed potatoes), red adjika oil, svaneti salt. - the tashmijab was really good texture and flavor, unique. The main courses ended up tasting all kind of similar in flavor and accompaniments, ended up blending into the same style from dish to dish. We tried the Khinkali dumplings and ate them the traditional way, holding it upside down w hands - these were okay. The skin is thick and kind of blots out the flavors in the meat, and the soup inside was not particularly juicy. Cocktails were excellent, faves were Seo, Bounty Hunter, and Metamorphosis.
"Bevri" (): is a Georgian word that translates to "a lot" or "much" in English. This restaurant in toney DT Los Altos (was formerly in Palo Alto?), is a gem of a restaurant. I came here to meet some people in the rear private party room, but walked through it's beautifully appointed front dining space. The food is delicious, well prepared, and although somewhat familiar to other mediterranean styles you might be familiar with, it is also quite different in many ways. The spices are different, and the mix of accent ingredients have a healthier touch, at least at this restaurant's offerings. (Cucumbers, Pomegranate, others. Perhaps this is just California's fresh cornucopia of ingredients meeting Georgian recipes at Bevri?) Our little sub-group ordered or shared: PKHALI - Chopped baby spinach and beets with walnuts and herbs fashioned in 2 separate half scoop domes, served with eggplant rolls and grilled rosemary bread with olives. Good appetizer starter. KHINKALI - (Georgian Dumplings) - these are like Xiao Long Bao's (XLB) bigger brother! There is a little soup in there, but the dough is heavier. You can get Beef, Pork, or Mushroom, in 3, 5, or 8 pieces. You are actually supposed to hold these upside down by the tail and bite and suck out the soup with the bottom on top! AJAPSANDALI - Vegetable stew with eggplants, bell peppers, onions and carrots, cooked with tomatoes, cilantro and spices. PORK CHALAGHAJI - Marinated, slow-cooked baby pork ribs with Adjika sauce. (Adjika is a spicy, savory, and flavorful condiment or spread made from chilies, garlic, herbs, and spices. It's similar to a tomato pepper salsa and is often used in Georgian cooking.) KHACHAPURI ADJARULI - Boat-shaped bread with cheese, butter and an egg! (Bevri put this in their logo, it is so tasty and popular.) MTSVADI - (chicken or pork) Grilled medium-size meat cubes marinated in onions, herbs and spices. WINTER PEAR - (dessert) Ripe pear cooked in Georgian wine with Ice-cream paired with fresh mint and walnuts ZANDUKELI - (non-alcoholic beverage) - Pear flavored Sparkling Lemonade Soda Service was excellent, with a roomful of 25 - 30 diners, all arriving at different times, with separate checks, the staff brought out all the orders in timely fashion, hot and nicely plated, with no mixups! And Bevri doesn't charge for tips! You know, all these dishes sort of rhyme, makes my mind create a sort of Drake slow song/rap about sweet girls and good food... We had a party at Bevri, the first inside was Beverly, We shared a nice pear beverage, no alcohol, no leverage, Beets and Spinach Pkhali, then walked in pretty Dolly, We slurping up Khinkali, hold upside down, no folly, Queue AjapSandali, as here comes Jean and Molly, Served Pork Chalaghaji, Chicken, Pork Mtsvadi...... Play it on Repeat!
I really enjoyed this place! My favorites include the Baked Brussels sprouts appetizer, the cheese bread boat, and the Napoleon Cake. For the Brussels sprouts, I really enjoyed the flavor with the combination of cheese - I don't usually see that combo. The cheese boat was soooo good, but I'd definitely recommend sharing it if you can, it is very large. The Napoleon cake was much bigger than I thought. It tastes like cream puffs and was easily shareable among 4 people. I think my entree was a bit too dry for me. The portion sizes for most of their dishes are also a bit smaller, so I'd recommend ordering more than just one entree. In general the ambiance was nice and calm! We went on a Sunday evening and there was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.
Bevri is a popular Georgian restaurant around Main Street in Los Altos. There's plenty of parking nearby. Food 5/5: every dish was a star in flavor and presentation. Everyone on Yelp recommended the boat cheese bread and it did not disappoint! It's extremely filling and delicious. I would recommend sharing with 3+ people. The lamb Khinkali Dumplings were also quite delicious. It's more similar to a baozi (Chinese bun) than a soup dumpling. In total, we got 5 dishes (4 + 1 dessert) to share for 3 people. The restaurant automatically adds a service fee to your receipt and does not ask for tip. The servers were incredibly friendly, attentive, and helpful. The overall bill came out to over $40 per person. It was a little pricey for the quantity of food, but taking into account the service, presentation, and quality of food, it's definitely worth coming for a special occasion.
Yum! I had never had Georgian food before so I didn't know what to expect, but my mom picked it for her birthday and I'm so glad she did! We loved the dumplings (all three flavors) and the chicken with potatoes dish. We also really enjoyed the bean filled pastries and the burrata filled bread (although that was a little too cheesy for me). I had the pear vodka soda and loved it and the desserts were really pretty (but didn't taste like anything spectacular). In the future, I hope to try the rosemary olive bread, one of the other cheesy breads, and their warm pear dessert. The ambiance and decor were cool - felt authentic. I will say our first waitress was nice, but it took a while for anyone to check on us after the food came out. Then, she seemed to have gone home because no one came to check on us until we pulled another guy over and asked for dessert and a drink, and he seemed confused about the menu, so it was a little disappointing. Had to deduct a star for the slow service. Overall I hope to come back soon!
Amazing food and good vegeterian options! Pkhali 5/5 My favorite dish on the menu. Khachapuri 5/5 Hype is real! :) Artichoke with baje 4/5 The mashed potato could use some more flavors/cheese. The adijka oil elevated the dish. Pista cocktail 2/5 it's sweet as opposed to tart as our server mentioned. They didn't take it back, but they were able to reconstitute it for us. Desserts seemed overly priced and uninspiring. Portion sizes are a bit on the smaller side. No typing policy is a nice touch. Service was a bit slow, ambiance is pleasant. There is a parking lot right behind the restaurant.
Tried this place for the first time and will definitely be back! I love the unique touch of the 'no tipping' policy--just enjoy the European cuisine. The cheese bread was my absolute favorite! I also tried the dumplings, which were okay for me, and the lamb was a good choice. The lamb kebab was flavorful, and the beef ribs were incredibly tender. We added a side of spicy sauce, which was a great complement. For dessert, we finished with the lava cake--it had a beautiful presentation and was perfectly gooey inside. Cozy and pretty inside! Servers were nice! Overall, a great experience!
Exceptional experience trying out Georgian food for the first time! Great location in downtown Los Altos, and excellent friendly and helpful service. All in all a 5-star. The best dish highly recommended to try is Khachapuri Imeruli, the boat-shaped cheese bread with butter and egg I strongly suggest to have the waiter to prepare it for you (see video). The second recommendation is the dumplings. Make sure you ask waiter to explain how to eat it properly as it's not traditional! It's dumplings with soup inside with your hand, and you are supposed to pick it up, turn it upside down, eat the bottom first and enjoy the soup/juice! We also got the chicken liver pate, which was amazing, too.
Great main and apps, not great dessert. But to be fair, the waiter did say we should go with another one. Everything here was great for the savory food. Cooked perfectly, great and strong flavors, and high quality ingredients. The pictures of the cheese boat are spot on and the hype for it is legit. If you like Chinese Xiao Long Bao, you should try the dumpling. It's a different flavor profile but still good. The beef and pork one reminded us of the spices you get on a beef Kafta. It was good but we would want to try the mushroom next time. The dessert was where it was lacking. The size was small (that's fine) but the pastry was soft and my wife caught notes of staleness. I think they just make it in the afternoon and stick it in the fridge. To me, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. The service was... service. We went at 5:15 and for 80% of our meal, the whole Wait staff was sitting at the bar scrolling whatever they were looking at. They didn't check on us and we had to flag them down for more water. It wasn't bad, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt and they discuss we wanted to not be disturbed. The food came out hot and they mixed the cheese for us, so honestly it was ok, hence not marking them down a star. We would definitely come back it was very unique as we've never had Georgian food before
Mind blown! I'd never tried Georgian food before, and it was amazing. The food, service, and drinks were all fantastic at Bevri. I came in on a Tuesday for dinner to catch up with a girl friend, and Bevri was a perfect place. It was easy to relax and talk and hear each other over good food and tasty wine. The Khachapuri Adjaruli was out of this world - you've gotta try it! I drool just thinking about that cheesy bread with an egg on top. We also thought the chicken mtsvadi was tasty. The staff were very welcoming and helped us navigate the menu and pick a wine. If you're into wine, you've got to try the Georgian amber wine here! We went for the Dilao Mtsvane/Rkatsiteli Amber wine, and it was fantastic with hints of melon and cantaloupe. Can't wait to bring more friends or come back on a date!
Delicious food!!! The short ribs were really tasty. The cheese bread was a touch messy but still enjoyable. The natakhari drink was too sweet for me.
This was my first time at Bevri, and my first time trying Georgian food, and I was pleasantly surprised! Not because I expected it to be bad, but because I didn't expect to LOVE it this much. I highly recommend the Lobiani--hands down my favorite dish. I'd never had anything like it before: a flaky puff pastry filled with beans. It's totally vegetarian-friendly, but honestly, it's a great choice for anyone, regardless of diet. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of this one, but try it! You won't be disappointed. :) We also had the chicken kebab, which was flavorful and well-cooked. It was more familiar to me since similar versions appear in Indian, Afghan, and other cuisines I've had - but still, it was tasty. That said, the Lobiani really stood out. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!
My first time having Georgian food, and I loved it! Parking is relatively easy. There is either street parking or the downtown area has some public parking lots just a short walk around the block. For a starter, I recommend getting the Pkhali. These tasty spreads come in spinach and beet flavors and are made with chopped walnuts and herbs. The colors are so vibrant and pretty! They also give you bread to spread it on, as well as eggplant rolls. You also must try their quintessential Georgian dishes--their Khinkali and Khachapuri Adjaruli! The Khinkali are Georgian dumplings filled with soup (similar to an xiao long bao if you've had those before). The Khachapuri is a boat-shaped bread with cheese, butter, and an egg. It's so yummy! Definitely big enough for sharing. For entrees, I was able to try a few different dishes, but my absolute favorite was the Kalmakhi! This grilled whole rainbow trout is stuffed with herbs and spices and is amazing! Sometimes when a whole fish is served, it can be difficult to remove the meat, but this one wasn't difficult at all. The inside stuffing was so tasty and really made this fish dish stand out! Highly recommend this and would definitely come back just to eat this rainbow trout! The Chicken Mtsvadi was pretty good, but a more standard dish of marinated chicken. Pork Chalaghaji ribs were also tasty. All entrees come with a dressed side salad. Many dishes are also topped with pomegranate seeds, which I thought was a great addition! Overall, I enjoyed my dining experience here. Get the Pkhali, Khachapuri, and Kalmakhi!
My friend had been eyeing this place for a while, and so we came here over the weekend to celebrate her birthday! Although she had had Georgian food prior to visiting Bevri, she said this establishment was superior to those in SF! We'll both be back! Service was friendly and fast. Also, they seem to not accept tips! Ambiance was modern, inviting, and not overwhelming. Food was memorable! Presentation was on point and Eve egg thing was fresh. The bread was an experience, and honestly a bit heavy for me, but it was still delicious. The starter with beets and nuts was so scrumptious. I would return just for that. My 9 month old son also approved; he devoured the beets! As a plus, parking was plentiful around the corner in the outdoor parking lot. Thanks, Bevri! read more
The most Ooey Gooey Cheese Bread! So good that it became @bevrifood logo This was our first time trying Georgian food and we just have to say WOW. Everything was so authentic and delicious that it's definitely a must try in the Bay Area. We also really appreciated the staff teaching us how to eat each dish. And not gonna lie, we would return just for the pear Georgian soda inside was also very clean and spacious - -- -- - Chicken Liver Pater Khinkali Dumplings (Beef & Pork) Khachapuri Adjaruli Chicken Mtsvadi Pear Georgian Soda read more
I've never had Georgian food before so this was a fun and new experience! Inside is somewhat casual and they also have a nice outdoor space. They were super busy when we came for dinner so the service was a little slow but they were so nice. The food itself is amazing! I thought the Brussels sprouts and artichoke appetizers would taste the same but they were distinctly different and packed with flavor. The ribs were cooked to perfection. If you've never had "momo" before, I'd recommend trying the dumplings. And definitely get the cheesy bread! I might suggest skipping the beef stew unless you're really craving it. read more

Celebrated International Womens Day with my family at Los Altos location and we loved it! We had a reservation and had no problems with seating. The interior differs from Palo Alto Bevri (its more spacious here), however its still very warm and pretty. The service, food and drinks are as good at the other location. We ordered our favorite lamb hinkali and hachapuri adjaruli and decided to try chicken Tabaka this time. Everything was delicious! My recommendation is Grape soda for your soft drink. The lady who hosted and served us that evening was very welcoming and pleasant (wish I have asked her name). Thank you Bevri! read more
I LOVE BEVRI. I tried Bevri recently for the first time and have already gone back twice because it's THAT good. The waitress recommended that we try their Khachapuri Adjaruli ($23) is a boat-shaped cheese bread with butter and egg, and mentioned that it's a favorite among tons of people who visit Bevri for this. LOVED IT! Honestly I'm not really a big cheese person typically, but this was SO delicious and is now one of my favorite foods! It's also a cool experience because they come to your table to mix the egg and cheese in front of you! Definitely make sure to order this!! Also really love the Georgian salad ($14) which has cucumbers, tomatoes, and walnut dressing. I get this every time I come! The service here is also so wonderful. The waitress was so friendly, answered all my questions, and gave awesome recommendations. I LOVE Bevri and will forever keep coming back! read more
There isn't enough hype around Georgian food here! It's one of the most underrated cuisines in my opinion and we're so lucky that Bevri does Georgian food justice! We ordered a bunch of different menu items and loved EVERYTHING. We ordered the Georgian Salad (did not expect the salad to be so good!! Highly recommend this!), khikali dumplings (filled with soup and you eat them upside down!), khachapuri adjaruli (boat shaped cheese bread with butter and egg!!!! MVP!!), tapaka chicken (pan fried cornish chicken deliciousness!!!!!), chalagaji (bomb pork ribs!!), and kalmakhi (rainbow trout!!!!). We loved EVERYTHING! Definitely worth a trip to @bevrifood for some Georgian food! They also have a location in Palo Alto! read more
Georgian food is so seriously good, and Bervri does it right! It's similar to Mediterranean and Turkish food, but the spices are different and I love all the walnuts in the food. I particularly love Bevri because they do mushroom dumplings, and as a vegetarian that option is just not as common as I'd like. If you get the chance, definitely make the stop! read more

As a long time patron on Bevri at the PA and Los Altos location, I was extremely disappointed the last time I dined there with a group. A couple of years ago, I held a private holiday party with my company at the Los Altos location and was very pleased with the quality of the food, especially the fish. The last time I dined there, the fish (which is the most expensive item on the menu), came with a very plain and bland salad (not the typical one Bevri accompanies with this fish). The fish itself was not seasoned and the skin was very soggy. It was barely edible. On top of that, we found that service was inattentive and badly timed. My food came out 15-20 minutes before everyone else did. I did not touch it until everyone else's food arrived, as it's incredibly awkward and impolite to eat in the company of 6 other people who have not received this orders. I understand that this may have been an "off" night for this spot, which was always a hit. I ended up spending a lot on fish that I could not eat, and it didn't seem like service staff noticed or cared. read more

I never even heard of Georgian food before until here! And by Georgian, I mean Georgia the country, not the state If you didn't know - Georgia is a country located in Eastern Europe and West Asia (I had no idea). The cuisine is hearty, but doesn't leave you feeling bloated. * Khachapuri Adjaruli - the infamous boat shaped cheese bread * Khinkali Dumplings (Pork & Beef) - meaty dumplings * Kupati Combo - sausages * Chalaghaji - slow-cooked baby pork ribs * Passion Star Martini & Cosmopolitan - these come with a fun bubble on top! read more

More spacious than the Palo Alto location with hospitable service. A little pricey all in all, but quality of the food was well worth it. Ordered entree style, but seems like you may be better off family style here. Would definitely come back Favorites: - Khachapuri Adjaruli: bread with egg and cheese: $21 -- like a very cheesy but delicious thick pizza with egg + butter - Chicken kebabs Mtsvadi $22: tender chicken, served with potatoes and salad - Chicken stew: Chahohbili $24: tomato-based broth, light and tasty Just ok: - khinkali beef dumplings $20, 5 pieces -- Georgian dumplings, warning that they do have cliantro! was great otherwise - Roasted chicken: Chicken Tapaka: $36 -- split cornish hen, a little difficult to eat with the bones TLDR: would come back if nearby! read more
We came here to try out Georgian food and didn't get disappointed. And we know if we visit Georgia the country (not the state), we won't be hungry! The staffs were very warm and friendly to introduce their dishes, drinks and culture. We loved their boat shaped bread with cheese. It is a must try dish. The dumplings were tasty but a little dry. The ribs were a little heavy on tomato sauce in it. I like their pear soda a lot and my hubby enjoyed his alcoholic cocktails. A good experience to something new! read more
We came here for a friend's birthday with a group of 7. The restaurant is on the small side inside but they were able to combine 2 tables to accommodate our party. Overall the service could have been better as our waitress was slow to bring us water and get our order and often we had a hard time flagging her down. It was also difficult to get a clear recommendation on how many dishes to order. We ended up sharing a variety of dishes including the well-known Khachapuri, the mezze app, the beef & pork Georgian dumplings and 3 entrees - the grilled pork, pork ribs and pan fried chicken. We enjoyed all the dishes and thought the portions were definitely generous enough to share and try different items. The star of the meal was definitely the khachapuri which was super yummy - soft pillowy bread with cheese, butter and an egg yolk to add extra creaminess. How could it not be delicious! The Georgian dumplings were also good. Similar to a large mono, it was full of meat and very juicy almost like a soup dumpling! We really enjoyed trying Georgian food for the first time but most of the dishes were overly salted and we found ourselves reaching for water a lot. When the salad on the sides of the entrees has an odd amount of salt on it which made a really unpleasant bite of veggies. Towards the end of our meal, we added on an extra bread, waited 15 min and were brought a soup. We clearly ordered the bread and couldn't wait any longer to put in another order so we just got the check. Service could really be improved but the food I would give 3.5 stars. read more

Phenomenal service and even better food. Take a date and sit at the bar if you want a vibe. The bartender and owners are total people people who clearly love what they do and 100% added to the bright atmosphere for the evening. The food was astounding. The Khachapuri was everything I look for in the dish: buttery, slightly sharp, rich but not aggressively oily or salty; a nice, lightly crisp exterior on the bread; a warm, soft, lightly chewy interior that creates a perfect textural harmony with the gooey and crispy. The liver pate was nothing short of the best I've ever had. It had zero gaminess, possibly because of the spices they added. I wasn't expecting it to come in this molecular gastronomy type gelatin mold, which was a nice surprise. read more

Bevri expands to Los Altos bringing Georgian food that is a bit pricey but worth the splurge. Bevri seems to have caught the attention of foodies with their eye-catching cheesy khachapuri which is even featured in their logo. Their first location in Palo Alto claimed to be the first Georgian restaurant in the Bay Area. Located on the restaurant filled Main Street in Los Altos, there are no shortage of dining options, but if you have not had Georgian food, I would highly recommend checking it out! Although the dining culture from that region appears to be centered around wine, but I was pleasantly surprised that all the food was delicious. Here is what I ordered: Khachapuri - Easily their signature dish for a reason! Soft and pillowy bread envelopes a pool of cheese, butter and egg yolk. Supposedly, this mixture is supposed to be mixed first but even without doing this, I found this combination was even great on its own. I could bathe in this combination! A bit pricey for the size, but definitely worth getting if you make a stop. Khinkali - These reminded me of soup dumplings on crack! The size of these things are much bigger than a typical dumpling with a good amount of meat to consider them quite filling. With a bite, they oozed with juicy goodness. After some research, apparently you are supposed to pick them up from the thick tips but am sure they could be enjoyed with fork and knife :P Pork mtsvadi - These Georgian pork skewers was a solid meat dish - flavored well and tender. What really made this dish stick out was the sauce that is supposedly a mixture of pomegranate, black pepper, and onion. Otherwise, I would say not super exciting. The service was quick and attentive. There are several two hour parking spots around the area, and more free parking the further out you park. If you are going to enjoy the downtown area anyway, would recommend finding parking a bit further and walk over. Overall, Bevri introduces Georgian food to the Bay Area that is exciting, but be ready to spend a little money to enjoy. read more

Shivangi, thank you for your review!…
Nice to try Georgian food for the first time. The kids loved the bread with cheese& egg, butter. Pork ribs - tasty & great quantity. Lamb kabob was tender and tasty, kids approved. The first pork dish was a bit dry, but pork roast cut is always dry. Service was excellent, multiple servers asked how things were, etc. ambiance is perfect for date night. read more
Lamb chop is okay Pork rib is kinda boring and nothing special for the price The chicken dish with potatoes is super salty! But the things that I dislike the most is the service. When I asked about the salty chicken the server said she didn't know what to do lol. Don't even refill water! Definitely not worth the price! read more
I have to eat my dumpling upside down, what?! O R D E R E D * Pkhali Sampler [chopped up beets with their rosemary bread is mouth watering] * Gebjalia [their NEWEST item: cheese roll] * Khinkali Dumplings [so flavorful!] * Khachapuri Adjaruli [that cheese pull was chefs ] * Kalmakhi [grilled rainbow trout] * Mini Napoleon Cake [so flakey] * Winter Pear [who knew Georgian wine was SO strong ] V E R D I C T Actually, that IS how you eat a Georgian dumpling. You turn your dumpling upside down, take a bite, drink all the soup then eat everything around the "stem" part. You wouldn't eat them stem because 1) it's very doughy and 2) you'll get full fast. This is the first time I had Georgian cuisine and it was such a wonderful dining experience! The staff is so friendly and gave such awesome recommendations in every time we ordered. If you haven't tried Bevri they have one location in Los Altos and one in Palo Alto. The one I tried in Los Altos has a relaxing outdoor dining area. read more
My 1st time trying Georgian food and it was a wonderful! For starters, we got the khachapuri which I highly recommend if it's your first time. It's bread, cheese, egg and butter so what's there not to like? :) For entree, I got a chicken kebab plate which came with chicken, and some side greens. The chicken was cooked well and was very flavorful. As for service, we were seated immediately and our orders were taken shortly after. Our waiter was also very helpful in guiding us through the menu as it was our first time having Georgian food. An interesting observation was the robot bus boy that would occasionally go up and down the aisle. Haven't seen something like that in a restaurant before. read more

Tonight, Bevri made dinner into one of my favorite dining experiences ever. My parents are foodies. Whenever they visit, they are big on sampling new restaurants, but they've never been a Georgian restaurant before Bevri. The host was so gracious with us and answered all of our questions about ingredients and menu items. He helped us pick out several dishes that were perfect for our table. Every dish + drink we were served was extraordinarily delicious. He even sent us home with some bonus treats :) I will be singing Bevri's praises for years to come because of our family's experience tonight. Ten out of five stars!! read more

Are the Kinkali vegetarian ? What other choices are there ? The stew?
Nope. The menu clearly marks vegetarian options. I recommend the ajapsandali
