    The food was phenomenal!!!!!!! I am sorry they don't have reviews on yelp, by reading i was expecting - so so food-but it was so much better I had chanahi ( meat in clay pot in sauce), ostriy- beef in red sauce, we had chicken dish with garlic-& salad with dressing with nuts/ every dish was excellent- fragrant - fresh- bold with flavors, sadly ( understandably) restaurant industry struggles with ingredients, labor, cost.... service was - less then ok-( i don't think he have experience, but hey-happy someone bringing the food)- its why i hold 1 star back-; alcohol was -2 options for beer( only on top( no bottles));2- red wines- Georgian( i do like them)- its-hidden jewel- i have to go back!!!!( & i don't say often that - even before Covid)-

    Chachapuri -- awesome salmaguni cheese experience

    Georgia on my mind? Well yes Ray -- with a twist. This is not the land of Jimmy Carter -- but it is that peanut farmer president's 40 year old immigration policies who these Georgians of the Caucuses have to thank -- for a soft Brighton Beach landing and a sturdy foothold for their very authentic Tbilisi-style restaurant. Brighton is, after all, the land of milk and honey for expat Soviets and their gold coast in NYC -- and a more recent influx from central asia and the Caucuses has written yet another chapter into a centuries old melting-pot food history of Brooklyn. As a well traveled expat, sweetie knows Georgian food from her visits there -- when Russia was still a "Union" -- and she was skeptical about the authenticity of everything we ate -- but I am impressed by the contemporary Georgian food culture at GH, it's service and the overall ambiance. For starters -- the room itself is warm -- as in earth-tones with wood everywhere -- which makes it very appealing on the cold and blustery day when we visited. This is also true about the wait staff -- two sturdy young gents who happily answered all of my questions about the variety of food we ate -- and the Georgian wine that we drank with it (Mariani btw - make sure the SKU starts with "86" to be sure its authentic -- said our server). The dry white was crisp but perhaps too dry and lacking in depth and fruit for my tastes. Just about everything in Georgian cuisine relies on ground walnuts, pomegranate and a spice mix known as "khmeli suneli" -- the last being an intoxicating mix of coriander, dill, basil, bay leaf, marjoram, blue fenugreek, parsley, safflower or saffron, black pepper, celery, thyme, hyssop, mint, and hot pepper. This is the Georgian version of Indian curry or garam masala and it made the lamb dishes we ate exotic and redolent with bright flavors. The Georgian salad starter was infused with this spicing and walnuts which turned simply sliced cucumbers, red onions and tomatoes into a home run of flavors and textures. Get this. The Phali is another winning first -- showcasing several versions of ground and spiced walnuts with additions -- like spinach in one, eggplant in another and a third wrapped in steamed cabbage. The shoti served with -- a traditional crusty bread delivered steaming hot -- is just the best vehicle for eating the various walnut spreads and the tastiest bread I've eaten in ages -- so good we took the leftovers home with us. The Chachapuri was decent -- this is basically a tomato-less cheese pizza -- but with Salaguni cheese -- a salty and tart version of mozzarella -- not as stringy and very creamy. Nice. Less to our liking was the Khinkali -- the Georgian take on xiao long bao -- which here is made with beef and pork (Tbilisi style) but which we've had elsewhere with only ground lamb as a filling -- which I prefer. The dough used for these dumplings was thick and rubbery -- and while the filling was decent and spiced authentically -- the overall experience was underwhelming. Somewhat better was the Chanakhi -- a traditional lamb stew with potatoes, tomato's and eggplant -- braised until all the flavors and spicing come together. Very satisfying -- if a bit skimpy on the lamb -- and heavy on the rendered fat -- but great for mopping with the gratis bread. The lulya kebab (Georgian adana) comes wrapped in lavash and is pretty standard Georgian fare -- the filling is well seasoned ground lamb served with roasted potato wedges along with house made satsebeli (tomato) and tkemali (green plum) sauces -- 2 traditional sauces served with this meal. We also ate an excellent chicken kebab that was perfectly moist -- well seasoned with Georgian spices and charred just right. On the food alone -- GH is a 3.5 for me -- I round up to 4 based on the vibe and service. This is not your average mediterranean food and you should not confuse the two -- it is much more sophisticated in flavoring and spicing -- unique really. GH also offers live music on weekends and caters to a mostly local Russian/Georgian crowd said our server -- serving until 3:30 am. If you are up for a cultural immersion foray in Brooklyn -- this is one place to consider. Top Tip: GH was empty for our early dinner -- but I so want to hang out here and drink Georgian wine into the wee hours -- with Georgian music blasting in my ear. I can tell these folks know how to party and with that in mind -- we will be back. tbc

    Fantastic !! We started with Khachapuri, a delishious I must say " white pizza " type dish. Oozy, just amazing. Then we had Kuoati, a sausage on a bed of basic French fries and red onion. Khinkali, my favorite fried dumplings, resembling soup dumplings. And finally Chicken Tabaka, a Cornish hen cut up and dry grilled with an amazing spice. A great meal with good friends, some vodka and wine !!

    I'm not one to write negative reviews, but Patrick (GM, I think owner, and my least favorite…read morepatrick including bateman) ruined this place for me. What is a very cool historic spot could be an insane hangout if it wasn't for the sauntering a**hole pissing on a good time. I went in with a friend of mine and we are both huge Coney Island regulars. Her more than me. She's been past the place a million times and they're never open. She asks him about this in a friendly way, saying we love the spot and we've been dying to come in. His response is super snide, and the he pulls out his phone and shoves the website in her face as if we didnt think to look them up. We tried twice to talk to the guy and both times he was extremely condescending and unfriendly. Then he went behind the bar and proceeded to complain about us out loud, 18 inches away as if we couldn't hear. just for trying to have a conversation? We weren't drunk or belligerent, just trying to tell him we like the spot. Guy seems totally uninterested in what it means to own or run a bar, much less a cool ass spot like this. If you go on a night (whenever they feel like being open for business--better check the website!!!!!) when Patrick isn't there and it's just the bartender Jamie-- he is super cool kind and a great time. Wish I got time to or felt welcome to exploring the place. Hope it goes under new ownership or I won't be back to try again. cheers.

    When to enjoy a good meal, my 44th anniversary i bought a steak asparagus. Baked potato fernt s***…read morewas burnt horrible food, and they're telling me it was good. Putting their hands-on my food. I will never ever go there. Eat again I don't think anybody should go there. They were very rude acting like there are 10 star rating place this place. Rates to me a 0 you go there. You taking your chances of being aggravated and going home starving. Every year I go there and eat on my birthday wide's birthday. Anniversaries, this is the worst anniversary ever. No one should ever go to this place. It's horrible. I never had a problem until today. And they ruined my day. I rate this place a 0. He actually put the hens on my food and told me it was good. So I told him, you eat it. The asparagus tastes like charcoal. The baked potato was burnt beyond burnt. Steak was horrible. Burnt Chalco tasting, never in my life. Did I ever go anywhere and have someone serve me like this? They should be closed down and I'll do whatever it takes to see that they lose this place. Thank you for bruin.In my forty fourth anniversary o sick with cancer for 2 years.Finally went out.And this is what I deserve.No, don't feel it's right.They hurt my feelings very bad forgets me is that they said the food was good and it wasn't burnt. I could show you a picture take. Your choice go. There if you want to, but I'll never, ever go there again. Not about the money I spend whatever and I get paid for the rest of the other food but I was very upset and I think this place should not be there. And they charge a lot of money. The stake that they burn baked potato, who burns a baked potato, who burns a spiral, gets in taste like charcoal. If I want the charcoal, I would have went to the supermarket and ate that bag, ha ha. It's the truth, please don't go there. Find a better place. I'm gonna call full administration. Anybody that conceive for their own eyes? What I experience. It was horrible ruin my anniversary for me and my wife and son.

    There should be a way to give No Stars! This has to be the worst venue in NYC for people with…read morehandicapping conditions. They aren't ashamed to tell you they have no ramps no elevator and no escalator to help you ascend the four (yes four) flights of stairs to the auditorium . Their only suggestion is that you get friends or relatives to assist you. I'm heartbroken I missed my granddaughter's dance recital because there are no accommodations. Even worse when my family came out they couldn't get their car for over an hour. Supposedly the valet went home with their keys in his pocket! And he lives on Staten Island! I'm not sure what the scam is but that is totally unbelievable !! Still waiting for an apology or explanation !!

    This theater is great for watching people beat each other up! It has a good sized stage, great…read moreaudio system and comfortable chairs, but the chairs are just too low (wish they could elevate that). This is our first time here and not sure would return because we came here due to invitation from our friends who sponsored the fights that night. This review came 2 weeks late. It was The Battle of the Millennium night. I don't know who the fighters were, but they were pretty awesome! Except when they knock each other down till bleeding. It was brutal. It looks like I'm reviewing the fights more than the theater. Anyway, the theater's entrance is kinda hidden. You have to walk pass the groceries store on the ground floor then turn right and walk upstairs to the theater on the second floor. I'm not sure what other activities they have in here but it could be for anything and everything.
