Lobio, dolma and lamb khinkali with a glass of Kindzmarauli, in 10-20 minutes

Why it’s worth visiting

Good for a quick Georgian meal with a group or family, in a big space · lobio and lamb khinkali gather praise, and the food comes in 10-20 minutes. Not everyone is convinced: one review finds the grill boiled and only the wine truly Georgian.

The story

A Georgian restaurant in the shopping centre at Arborilor street 21, in Botanica, open daily 10:00-22:00; the site is only a delivery menu. The good reviews are enthusiastic: "honestly the best restaurant I've ever been to in my life · I've dined in many Michelin-star restaurants, but nothing compares to this lively and authentic Georgian place", with "incredible food, full of flavor" and staff "friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm"; "spacious restaurant with delicious Georgian cuisine · the waiting time is very short, everything is prepared within 10-20 minutes", with lobio, dolma, lamb khinkali and Kindzmarauli wine as favourites; "one of the most tasty food experiences we had in Moldova", with one reservation: "the waiter came and took back our plates before we had finished". One 1-star review sees it differently: "nice ambience, good service, unfortunately very bad food · grilled meat and vegetables were like boiled, not grilled, three starters, all at a bad level · the best part was the Georgian wine, the only truly Georgian part of this 'Georgian' restaurant".
