I am new to Georgian food in the USA in a sit down restaurant so this was my first time and it has a Michelin mention so I thought it was a good time to try it. I had no instructions. Menu was difficult to understand. I felt bad asking about every item but I asked about most. I like to know what I'm eating. Must try khinkali but it has a set of rules which I learned on my own by watching locals after my mess. You should take them from a plate with your hands, grab the dumpling by the top (called kudi), turn it around and sprinkle it with pepper. Then you carefully take a tiny bite into it, create a hole and suck the juice and only then start eating. The upper part is not for eating - they are discarded to the edge of the plate. I grabbed mine cut it in half got the juice all over and messed it up. No one told me it was a soup dumpling! Nothing like the Asian ones. This one is much larger and has a very delicious broth inside along with a meatball of two meats blended and green pepper. The Hot borscht was chunky, and was delicious once I added the sour cream. Without the sour cream it is a vegan soup. My last favorite was the eggplant rolls. They are served cold and are also vegan. They are filled with a walnut spread and topped with a few pomegranate seeds. Served with bread. I do not recommend the kebab. Too overcooked for me and they do not serve them medium. A few other things. They add a 10 percent service fee and a 3 percent credit card fee. The loss of a star was not due to the food but due to someone smoking in the kitchen and we were seated right near the kitchen and I enjoy my eating experience by smelling my food. I do not want to smell whatever you're smoking. It made me feel sick. read more
