IN THE SHADOW OF METEKHI

World cuisine restaurant €€
4/5
1 review

High quality Georgian cuisine, slightly less luxurious atmosphere than in Meidan (which belongs to the same group), but still select. The restaurant is superbly located in Avlabari, at the top of the cliffs overlooking the Koura River. The bay window allows a dinner with a splendid panorama. High prices. There are often music or dance groups. The noise level can be a little too high. Superb view of the fortress and the river. The dishes are varied, and you will enjoy good service. At the end of the day and at night, the panorama is magical.

LAGHIDZE

World cuisine restaurant

It is one of the favourite Sakhatchapourés of the Tbilissiens, especially those nostalgic for the past. It was its founder, Mitrophane Laghidzé, who invented a kind of syrup served here, a mixture of different fruity syrups, sugar and water, called Laghidzé water. You can still drink here. Laghidzé was the first facility to serve adzharians adzharians in Tbilisi, and the cook of the 1950 s, which introduces a commercialized form of the Georgian doughnut, still works here! The garden is in the very style of 1960 and the prices of the khatchapouris are derisory: It's also a mission of the place to feed not very rich mouths. The place is threatened by the project to renovate the avenue, it may have to close its doors for a while.

Don't be fooled by appearances, contrary to its name, this restaurant serves Turkish, not Georgian, cuisine.

You will enjoy Turkish dishes with a very fast and efficient service - it seems that Turkish restaurateurs invest a lot in its quality. According to tradition, one orders his dishes in the window, as in popular restaurants in Turkey.
