  While looking for a place to eat on Saturday night, Saperavi was recommended to me by a close Friend. Although I was skeptical after not eating Georgian food before, I was very impressed by the meal. The cheese bread with hot sauce was recommended to us. It was an excellent appetizer.The salmon and chicken shashlik arrived shortly after and were delicious as well. As a bonus, they are also the only place I know of in town that had both Erdinger and Delirium on tap.Overall it was an amazing experience and I will certainly be back.

  I am rating it 1, because of lack of trust and satisfaction, not the food. I am not overly fussy at all. Went there a lot last summer, but stopped when an order was argued about. I definitely ordered lavash, but was told I did not. Then was told that he would not charge for the wrong item. When the bill came, we were charged and since he was nowhere in sight, but a waitress came to collect payment, we paid for the item. The food is good, although some a bit overpriced and some things are a bit overcooked. I had an incident with a large walnut shell that i mentioned, at one visit. My last order was pick-up, and upon coming home, I found my soup inside tin foil, which was then placed in the plastic bowl. I assumed someone in the kitchen told the helper to place soup in bowl and then wrap the bowl in tin foil…..these mistakes can happen, but it was a mess getting the runny soup out of the tin foil. I was shocked though when I ate the beet Pkhali, and felt an object in my mouth. I went back personally and brought in the object. The owner found the soup incident did in fact happen, but seemed unaware of the ‘nature’ of the object in Pkhali and spent 10 minutes looking at it. Since his cook denied it being from the kitchen, it was obvious that he believed that version……. AND THAT is what bothered me. If it was my restaurant and someone presented such an item, I would bend over backwards and not make it seem that 50% off my food is a good deal. I will not be going back to get my 50% off. There is no excuse to make the customer feel they have to defend finding foreign objects in food. I would never have posted this if not for several times where it seemed they were right and I was wrong, but this time it was no small thing. Accidents happen, but this item was not related to food at all. I’m not happy with the long humming and hawing to arrive at a reduction on my meal. Funny thing is, in hindsight, he never bothered to even offer to refund the measly amount that I spent on that pick-up.Thing is, the Phkali was one of my favorite things combined with the lavash.
