Restaurant Tiflisi

We had the cheese bread with yolk and butter. It was fantastic! We had the chicken in garlic sauce as well which is pretty amazing. Its creamy and the chicken is tender with a good portion. We also had the lamb soup dumplings. They were over salted and made my mouth burn from salt. Other than that flavour was good and they came out hot. The lamb meat was a bit chewy. I would definitely like to try some different dishes as well in the future.

Delicious food and a lovely atmosphere in a nice neighborhood. Tried the eggplant stuffed with cheese, the beef stew and the dumplings and every single one was a hit! Good portions and very friendly staff who are happy to recommend items if you aren’t familiar with the cuisine.

I could eat their khachapuri adjaruli every day - so amazing. Tried the fried mushrooms with cheese this time and they were absolutely incredible as well. We were scraping the last bits of cheese off the dish... Also highly recommend the pear lemonade - very unique and delicious taste.

So, full disclosure - I don't have a lot of experience with Georgian food. Maybe this restaurant is an exceptional example of Georgian cuisine and it's just not for me. I also came alone for dinner, and I get the sense that this place is really more of a "bring a lot of people" restaurant and less of a "get one main and go" kind of restaurant. That being said, this was my experience. I got the chakapuli, a lamb stew topped with tarragon. The stew itself tasted pretty good - it had a nice savouriness and an undercurrent of spice with a pleasant sour note. The lamb, despite being an anemic grey, was tender if not particularly seasoned. The bread it came with was warm and paired well dunked into the broth. The stew also came in a small bowl and had a very watery consistency and cost $24. I wouldn't have minded as much if this had been labelled an appetizer or something, but it was explicitly part of the mains portion of the menu. I came to the restaurant for dinner and after I'd finished the stew I was still hungry. Not wanting to leave hungry after spending $24, I ordered the lamb chops after, which came with a side of mashed potatoes. The lamb chops were, again, relatively tasty - they were well and uniquely seasoned and tender. The dish was also $30 and came with four (really three, since one of the chops just had two bones protruding and wasn't particularly thicker) medallion sized chops and half a plate of pickles. I don't know if the pickles were meant as a palette cleanser or if pickles are just a large part of Georgian cooking, but they tasted like regulars pickles and I wasn't interested in eating half a plate of sliced pickles. Suffice it to say, it didn't leave me particularly satisfied either. I also ordered a Georgian lemonade - for $10 it was a little disappointing the soda wasn't even an imported product but was produced locally in Canada. All in all, I wish I could say better things about this restaurant. It's in my area and I'd been looking forward to trying it for a while. The food was not bad, but the portion sizes were really disappointing. I spent $80 after tax and tip on a meal and came away not much more full than I felt going in. On that alone, I can't recommend it. Also, the online menu is out of date despite the upload being labelled "July 2024." The prices have gone up since then - I ordered off the online menu for the drink and the second dish since the server had taken my physical menu by then, and I didn't realize that the lamb chops had gone up by $4 and the sodas by $2 when I ordered. No one's fault since I could've asked for a physical menu back, but just be mindful that the online menu isn't correct.

This is my second time visiting this place, and I have an even better impression. The Gourmet Plate is 100% worth the food. I ordered a lamb kebab, pork shashlik, and aubergine rolls with cheese.

Good place for a family dine in. Ambience is unique with the feeling that you're in Georgia with the art around. Limited seating inside, but they also have seating outdoors during summer. Georgian Food here is non spicy but delicious, hearty and full of flavour. Freshly baked bread is outstanding! Each dish is sufficient for one person. So you may have to order quite a bit if you come in as a family.

I’ve never tried Georgian food previously, but I went to Tiflisi to see what it tasted like. We ordered four random dishes to split. The flavours were unique but the portions were on the smaller side. Service could be improved a bit too.

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here. First time trying Georgian food and it is delicious. The eggplant starter was really tasty. The main course of grilled lamb was tender. The homemade Georgian bread was good. Their khinkali are dumplings with soup inside, which is similar to xiao long bao, but bigger and more savoury. We had leftovers as we are gluttons and ordered too much. We heated up the leftover khinkali the next day for lunch with a bit of butter in a pan ... heaven. The service was friendly. Will definitely be back.
