Okay Georgian restaurant conveniently situated for tourists and with a reasonable price range. I had decent expectations for this place due to the amount of reviews but I was more disappointed than satisfied.First, the service is very slow. It took them 30 minutes to bring the first food and that was some sauces, without even the bread we ordered. The next dish was served after 40 minutes since the order and that was a vegetable mix that doesnt even require mixing or anything. Literally a plate with washed vegetables took 40 minutes! Other dishes came within 50 minutes and werent even worth the wait.The coffee took 10-15 minutes to be prepared and the water also took 10 minutes when it seemed like there werent many guests in the restaurant... There were also many guests who came after us but got served much faster although they ordered the same menu.If the dishes came in 20-30 minutes it would have been great.Otherwise, Id recommend getting khinkali (though a bit salty), chashushuli (tender and sweet) and the beetroot pkhali (unique taste with the pomegranate bits). The dolma was pretty salty.The staff wasnt necessarily friendly but wasnt rude either.

It may just be what we ordered, but...A true case of expectation vs. reality disappointment. Photo of the corn salad in the menu looks NOTHING like the salad you get (see photos)... where was all the corn?The mushrooms and potatoes were quite oil drenched and very sparse compared to the image in the menu.However, desert was delicious - we had the poached pears with ice cream and mulled wine sauce. Again, nothing like the picture - was more a sticky vanilla custard than mulled wine sauce - but it was tasty!I think what Cha Cha can learn is that if you have pictures in your menu, you should ensure that the food at least resembles it.

Hot piping tasty Georgian cuisine served alongside the beautiful view of the city and the embankment. Classical!! Loved every dish that we ordered. Definitely recommended

Great location, prices are very acceptable and the food is delicious. The place is always crowded due to warm Georgian welcome ;) the music can be loud, but service is very friendly. We tried many dishes from the menu and georgian wine - everything was super good. Don’t hesitate to ask the waiter about dishes - they help a lot.

Tasty food closed to one of the main cathedrals lot Saint Petersburg. Staff was very friendly. Highly recommended.

Delicious restaurant! We went there on the evening of our arrival in St. Petersburg and we really had a great time. The staff was really nice and explained to us the different specialties on the menu. The food was really good and we tried many different dishes. I recommend this place without any hesitation.

Charming interiors and authentic Georgian cuisine are what makes this place great for a lunch or dinner with friends and family.I had the Georgian salad, made with eggplant, paprika, purple onions, cilantro and spices, topped with pommegranate seeds and it was delightful, especially if you pair it with the Mengrelian Khachapuri - the traditional pizza-like bread with local cheese. It’s very filling so I recommend getting only these two dishes and some Georgian wine if you are not too hungry.If you are - try some of the many stews served in minj saucepans.

Always very good typical Georgian cuisine. Very good wines on a extended wine list from Georgia. Warm welcome and attention from the staff. Cosy place to find a refuge when winter knocks at the door in this northern Venice.

Good Georgian food. I was only wondering why I had to wait my vegetables so long time, that I had eaten almost all of my lamb. Got good spicy sauce, when we asked for it, but why isnt sauces included by default or at least suggested.All in all tasty food, just info and service have some room of improvement.

The food is so far so good but the service is very nice. The location is nearby the Cathedral which is located at the center in the city.

Delicious food and drinks, very friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere

We came across this Georgian restaurant by complete accident and was a bit doubtful as it is situated at a very touristy street. But it turned out to be a good accident as every single dish we had was the best in St. Petersburg. The strawberry lemonade was chilled, tangy and refreshing. The salmon salad fresh with basalmic vinegar and orange sauce. The grilled mushroom and potatoes super hot, soft yet chewy. The Sulgini cheese and meat stuffed savory Khachapuri was flavourful where you can taste the aroma of the baked flour. The pork and beef kebab is also and excellent dish with its spicy sauce. Lastly, staffs there were very friendly!

Best restaurant in St. Petersburg. Relaxed atmosphere and great food with the BEST Napoleon cake in town! Definately worth a visit.

Absolutely my favorite place to eat in Russia! Very clean place and the food is always absolutely amazing! Prices are not expensive and well worth the food and atmosphere. I highly recommend!1 year EDIT: wife and I just got back from Tbilisi Georgia. Turns out THIS IS the BEST Georgian food in the world! My local friends and family took us to every worthy restaurant in TBILISI and The surrounding areas and to our surprise, NOTHING was better than Cha-Cha! How can that be??? MIND BLOWN!!

Excellent quality of Georgian food. The khachapuri was excellent, the khinkali was tasty as well. The phkali (dips) were truly the highlight. My favourite was the green bean phkali as well as the eggplant stuffed with walnut and Georgian spices. The eggplant had a perfect, smoky taste while went so well with the walnut. The fruit tea was also excellent - not too sweet, with rich fruit flavour.#localguides #georgianfood

A good place for Georgian cuisine lovers

Good service and normal prices

Georgian restaurant in St. Petersburg with Georgian food and St. Petersburg prices lol. The food is good. Hash puri nicely made, but a little small. We had some type of nut and beetroot balls. They were nice and something different. Overall good but a tidbit pricy.

Best khachapuri, chicken satsivi and strawberry mint tea. Vegetables in the salad are also fresh and tasty.

Absolutely amazing stuff. I had 3 dishes. One was some bread bowl with cheese, butter and an egg. Stwewed lamb and some very large dumplings. My only regret is that I couldnt eat more. Also, if you like good whiskey/ scotch be sure to drink dont of their nice ChaCha. Very smooth

The Foods are very good looking but the the taste I dont think so,

Once you know it, you can’t help to come back 😍. Even Russians said that Georgian food is the best ! 😏🤫 in secret, of course.

Delicious Georgian food. Situated at a prime location, just a few steps away from Savior of the Spiller Blood. Lot of options for both meat lovers and vegetarians.

The best restaurant in Saint Petersburg.

Great location just walking distance from the iconic spilled blood church and many others monuments, as well as and the Gostinyy Dvor metro station, great food and drinks

Fabulous authentic Georgian food in more than decent prices. Cosy atmosphere and great service. Highly recommended!

Great Georgian restaurant in the heart of St. Petersburg. Georgian food is unbelievable, try lamb shashlik, add Georgian style salad and a glass of Kindzmarauli wine... nice place, good service. Very enjoyable.

Promoting themselves as Georgian restaurant, they dont really have an idea of how it is made. Some members of their team are also quite rude, although I was welcomed with a warm greeting. Overall, I wouldnt recommend this place.

Took 15 minutes to wait for one beer and water. Waiters were standing beside the ready beer by the counter for five minutes doing nothing.

Excellent food and service!

Visit when she qas very hungey

Don’t come to this place if you don’t want to spend the whole day here. Slowest service ever. 20min for a drink, 60min for food.

Google says that you need a reservation, but I was able to just walk in. The kabab plate I ordered was huge and very delectable. The waiter, Sergii (sp?), was a bit surprised that I was ordering just for myself. I admit that I did struggle a bit (would have been a piece of cake in my early twenties), but managed to finish.The menu does have a great variety and had me excited about all the different possibilities.I posted a picture - in case you can’t tell, there’s more meat under all that vegetation.

Great and delicious food with perfect taste, the staff wasnt frinedly to us at all and they try to take our dishes when we werent finish our meal.Atmosphere was perfect.

Great food and great service

Good service, nice picture menu and English-speaking waiter really helped. I didnt love the bean dish or the cheesy corn bread I ordered, but the wine was excellent and I think I just made unfortunate food choices. Get the khinkali or the khatchapuri, I saw those on neighboring tables and was jealous!

Very good restaurant & very kind stuff

Amazing food

Good food and good service👍

Good food that was well priced. Nice outdoor seating so you can watch the people go by. Staff were busy (Saturday night) but still friendly.

Food was good, but service was terrible. Waiter seemed tired and didnt say thank you, you are welcome etc. Waiter tried to make us order more expensive dishes. I ordered local beer and waiter charged more expensive exported beer.

Its a really accessible place within the city center.You are hungry and you dont know what to eat or where.This is the place. Good quality, good price.I loved the salmon steak it was splendid, but do tell them you dont like it dry, Ive noticed this tendency in St. Petersburg.The only drawback is the orange salad, its tasteless, its not very difficult to make a tasty citrus salad. Some lemon here, some salt (or garlic if you will) olive oil, and the lettuce of your choosing.If you wanna go fancier but minimalist, go for curly endive, lemon juice and pomegranate seeds (a pinch of salt if you want), and its delicious.And well, if we are going picky, the mushrooms from the mushrooms and potatoes would definitely benefit from being sliced, full bodied they loose the flavor and texture of the sliced ones, and truth be said, they look quite brute unless you grill them, but thats a different story.Also the lemonades, despite the fresh fruits used, they have an EXCESSIVE amount of sugar syrup, which in turn kills the flavor of the freshly cut fruits that have been introduced inside.Maybe if its an ultra sour lemon juice, some significant amount of sweet could be justified, but this is not the case.

Lovely place, good service, nice interior, tasty food. I would definitely go here ones again.

What an unmitigated disaster. There arent many ways you can go wrong with raw salmon, but serving it half frozen is one of them. Our server was fast to help (which was a saving grace and the reason there are 2 stars) but getting back the same dish after a dive in the oven is really not a great experience. The Georgian salad I ordered was a sorry excuse for it l, with just a sad mash of tomatoes and cucumbers. Im sure slips happen, but on a 3 courses dishes here was nothing worth saving. Better luck next time.

The best restaurant we went to in St Petersburg. The eggplant with minced walnuts were SO good. The dessert (pressed grapes?) wasnt my cup of tea, but its interesting to try.

Fine dine restaurant

Nice food, however abusive 10% surcharge for service only for 2 people. Also I found the wine very expensive. At least twice expensive compared to other place in the area.

Visited to have dinner after long day tour. Staff Elizabeth who happens to understand English was very rude in order to understand the food and menu to be ordered especially to the tourist. May be experienced staffbut not expected to be rude especially when the food is being paid for. Asked for chicken fillets which we tried to understand if served are raw or cooked but the reply was rude so decided to ask other server who managed to understand and help. Please watch out for the rude behaviour served with the paid food.

Beautiful place.. average food .. very good service. Location is superb

Very good Georgian food compared to other places weve been in Russia. Friendly staff and great service (plates were gone at the second we took the last bite of the dish... seems to be a Russian thing).

Fantastic Georgian cuisine with a amazing view the the channel.

Food was good but service was terrible. Waiter didnt even look at me while taking my order, never said thank you, here you go, etc.. Didnt say anything at all. First time during my two week trip to Russia that I didnt want to tip, but they charge 10% service automatically! No wonder he doesnt even try.

Very wide selection on Russian foods. Very tasty food and reasonable prices. Terrace was very convenient.

Amazing Georgian food with good vegetarian options. Lovely bread and grilled vegetables and wide array of Georgian wines.

Good music.. the food was not special. friendly staff except for the main waitress... last dish was unpresentable.

Good Georgian food. Nice staff, signal them if you want attention. Bit of cross cultural miscommunication on our part I think but all good.

Food quality was okay. Personnel refused to speak English and was not so friendly. Expensive place for the quality.

Very slow service

Amazing food. Great staff. These two should define a great restaurant by themself. I would highly recommend this place

The evening I was in the restaurant it was very busy and the staff seemed to be under pressure. I had a bit of a wait before I got served. The food was delicious and the desert was to die for.

Gorgeous decor and spicy Georgian food! The stews and breads are the best in Leningrad.

Excellent Georgian food, great atmosphere. I love this place

Good food. Kind of small portions and slowish service

My first experience with Georgian food. Excellent flavors for all the dishes we had. Service could be improved. The wait staff is not friendly.

Great food, great atmosphere! If Im ever back in St. Petersburg I will definitely come back

One of the best restaurants Ive ever been to in my life. Went a year ago and still think about the meal I had. It was a bread thing with cheese and egg. We also had shots of Georgian vodka. We had a super nice waiter who spoke English. Dont leave St. Petersburg without eating here.

We can taste traditional food, lactation near freedom square

We received the main dish 20 minutes after the side dishes allowing them to grow completely cold

Food was good. Its Georgian Russian. Wanted to try borsht but they gave me Georgian soup. It was good but no cabbage in it. We got the cheapest and still cost around $32 usd. Did get the pickle treat which was good.

Local very welcoming, fantastic food, fair price, friendly and efficient staff

Cha cha and some more cha cha! Good food and staff. Must visit again.

Very nice food from Georgia with nice wines although a little bit overpriced. Interesting environment. Good service although most of the waiters speak poor English.

The portions were huge, but the food itself was just alright. The garlic fried potatoes were a bit bland. The interior is lovely. I was there with great company.

Tasty food, polite people, nice central location

Excelent place for fusion food and traditional Georgian food. Very clean and nice.

A nice place in a central location, a little bit noisy but overall good food. What was strange is, that the waiter tipped himself. She just added 15% to the bill without even asking how we liked it there. Very strange, since tips are determined by the dostumer based on his overall experience. After the payment she also wanted a signature copy from me and I didnt get any reciept after paying by credit card. For safety reasons I deactivated that credit card after that visit.

A very good restaurant with a great variety of georgian dishes. They also add pictures so you can see how the dish looks, before you order it.We ate there a business lunch and we only paid 1140 rubels. In business lunch the dishes is smaller then regular. However we, for example, order three dishes to a person (salad, soup and a main dish) and we ended with our bully full and great satisfaction.

Best georgian food I never tried.good armosphere.very good price.very kind and young service.I would totally recommend it.

Good food, fair price .

Highly recommend! Very tasty meals! 🙂

Tasty food

Great food! The little cheese boats and ravioli are incredible, and service is great. They do not speak English though, so get ready to show what you want on the menu!!

Fantastic, awesome good, nice location. Very friendly waiters. And the Jazz bar Dom7 right across the street

Very nice Georgian cuisine!!! A must visit. Pls order Cha Cha... Georgian Vodka))

Quick, affordable and very tasty.

A great place to enjoy authentic Russian cusine. To start with you could order Morsh, which is a fruity drink. For appetizers you can try Russian pies and cutlets with their myriad fillings, make sure some of them contain the staple potato. I would recommend getting the Khachapuri which is delicious. Ill suggest the Borsh soup and assorted meat platter (make sure you try the pigs fat).

Nice place with a lot of different food.

Great food and service. Really recommend this place.

Fantastic location.Kind staff.Great choice of food.Good quality and tasty food.Good Wi-Fi in the bar.Amazing draft beer. You have to try Ziguli (жигули пиво) Russian beer.Good appetite

The service is TERRIBLE. Ive been here twice (because the food is good), but it will be my last. Waiters are lazy and rude. I order one lemon juice and got one squeezed lemon, no water or sugar or mixed. Awful.

Great Georgian cuisine, and surprisingly great tea. Highly recommend!

Really yummy Georgian restaurant located really close to Saviour on the Spilled Blood. The lamb khinkali (dumping) and kachapuri (egg inside bread with cheese) were both great. A lot of the reviews say the service is lousy but our waiter was very sweet (Viktoria) and really tried to understand everything we said even if she didnt always understand. They are very busy so I would recommend booking a table! The salads are also really good.

Great place, modern decor and delicious food. Menus in English and Russian. Best to book ahead.

Great food with good price and friendly staff

Food was ok, but i dont like when the waiter charge you the tip without prior notice. If he would have asked me, i would pay it but the tip was already added

The place where you can eat halal food such as sibas fish menu of Rusian cuisine

Really a lovely gerogian food experience in Saint Petersburg. People who works I this place are pleasant and give best suggestions on the dishes available.

Defintevely, the best resturant in St. Petersburg!

We were a group of 8 and entered this place by chance over lunch - we ordered half of what was on the menu card and shared everything - was super tasty. Staff was very friendly.

I love the food there. Some times you wait too long to find a Waiter to take the order but not happened much only when they are over crowded.
