Food was good but service can be a bit more tentative. Overall experience was good. We ordered the double cheese khachapuri and it was super good and cheesy. The chicken and pork kababs we good too. We got both the steam and fried dumplings and we like the fried ones more, fyi they are huge in size. The best thing was the mushrooms and fries. This was one tasty dish and got us by surprise. And we got to try a green soda/leamonade (tarragon) and it was pretty. It's worth a try if yiure in the area.
We were in the neighborhood with hunger, so we just checked any restaurant with good reviews and Mtskheta Cafe popped up. Another reason why we chose it was because we never had Georgian food before and were curious about how the dishes taste like.
The options on the menu are decent but in Kartvelian languages, so we had difficulties making up our decisions. The staff was friendly and suggested a couple of dishes to us. We got their Khachapuri, Chakapuli and Chicken with Garlic Sauce. The food was not really our type except the cheesy & satisfying Khachapuri and I believe it’s authentic.
First time having Georgian food and it was really good! We ordered a few dishes. We got the khinkali (meat soupy dumplings), khachapuri (a sort of flatbread with Georgian cheese), eggplant with walnuts, and the Neapolitan for dessert. My favorite was the eggplant and walnuts dish. It's served cold and has a nice pomegranate filling. The khachapuri was alright if you really love grilled cheese type foods. The dough was really good. It would have been good to have something to dip in. The khinkali I was looking forward to since I heard good things about it. The meat was alright, but there was a lot of meat so that was appreciated. The soup was a little too salty for my taste. The Neapolitan was pretty decent. The cream in the middle was just the right amount of sweetness. The waitress was really nice and the vibe was very chill.
