Georgian khinkali, khachapuri and kharcho, served by staff in national costume

Why it’s worth visiting

Good if you're craving Georgian food. Reviewers especially praise the khinkali, khachapuri and kharcho. Worth knowing: staff don't primarily speak English, and one reviewer found prices a bit pricey for the city.

The story

Georgian restaurant in Centru, with staff in national costume. Reviewers praise the khinkali, and one review says the khinkali and khachapuri recalled the flavors of Georgia. The kharcho is called by one reviewer one of the best they've ever had. The kitchen stays open until closing, which one review calls a big advantage. Staff don't primarily speak English. One reviewer found this made communication difficult, another says it still went well, and a third found prices a bit pricey for the city.

What visitors wrote
  • “The venue is clean, large and welcoming. The staff, even though their primary language wasn't English (which is ours), were great in assisting in ordering and service. The food is incredible. We enjoyed the 2 course lunch special for two persons plus house wine. Nothing but thumbs up for this restaurant and their staff.”

  • “It was very tasty and atmospheric, but a bit pricey for this city. The kharcho was one of the most delicious I've ever had. The cheburek was simply good, and the khinkali were wonderful. An excellent Georgian cafe, with prompt staff in beautiful national costumes. And the kitchen here works until closing, which is a big advantage.”

    - Kyrylo Shevchuk
  • “The name 'Chakapula' itself promised an authentic Georgian experience, and it didn't disappoint. The Khinkali and Khachapuri were excellent, reminding me of the wonderful flavors from my trip to Georgia. However, the cucumber and tomato salad was a bit underwhelming compared to the incredibly fresh versions I had in Georgia. Overall, it's still a very good spot to satisfy your …”
