Not good value for money - Edit
We came here knowing that the options available were limited. The menu was in English and the only vegan options were from the appetiser section, the prices of which were the same as the mains but of far smaller size. We had the Pkhali Plate which, whilst tasty, needed bread which had to be purchased separately. The Adjapsandali (vegetables cooked on coals) was disappointing, as the portion was very small and the flavour quite bland.

Satisfecho a medias - Edit
La comida georgiana tiene algunos platos veganos como pkhali, berenjenas o khinkalis vegetales. Normalmente, los principales tienen queso y/o carne, así que podría ser difícil si falla alguna cosa. En mi caso, probé un lobio (guiso de judías pintas) muy sabroso con un toque diferente. Aunque a mí me gustó, el restaurante no ofrece una experiencia muy vegana ya que me pusieron al lado de las brasas donde se cocina la carne. Creo que hay opciones mejores en la ciudad.

Few, but excellent options - Edit
Only a small variety of vegan/vegetarian food to choose from. However, what they have on offer is very delicious! The place is very cosy and the service was very good! Our waitress spoke excellent English.
Read moreSeveral of the starters are vegetarian, some vegan. Some are cold, others warm. Our waitress explained that the Kvelis kudi (champignons, tomatoes, onions with several spices in cheese) would be warm and big enough to have it as a 'main'. The other starters are too small to have only one. To make sure to have enough to eat, we (2 people) ordered a Chatschapuri (which is not vegan, however) in addition to two starters.

Could be better - Edit
We explained that we are not eating cheese and in dumplings we had full of it... Waiter said that white cheese is not a cheese. One meal was to throw, to pay... And big waist of food.
Read moreThere is potential a few vegan options... But we prefere other restaurants.
Pros: A few vegan options
Cons: Expensieve , Low english, Vegan options treat like a vegeterian

Wow! Fabulous Georgian Restaurant - Edit
This is a wonderful place... I had a few of their appetizers.... see the pictures of the dishes I had and the nice dry red wine I had with them! The place is made to feel like you are eating in a typical Georgian home... the service was excellent... my waitress was Danagul who was very helpful in making my food and wine selections. I would rate it 5 stars if I could... but not allowed because they serve meat dishes...

Great for everyone - Edit
Some of the crew speaks English. Unfortunately ours was not so it was a bit hard to know what was vegan.
Read moreBut the food was super delicious and meat eaters find also plenty of food. Therefore it was great for me to choose it on a business trip.

pkhali paradise! - Edit
Great food with a great range of veggie/ vegan options. Adjapsandali is a veg stew and pkhali is a walnut sauce that is used to stuff various vegetables. Lobio is a red bean dish and in season they also serve green bean lobio. Lobiani is a red bean pie so plenty of choice for vegans, just don't expect a plated main course - order an array of these dishes. Lots of salads to choose from and Georgian wine to wash it all down!

Not so many options if you are vegan - Edit
We ordered just 3 starters the waiter recommended us (especially we weren't really hungry), all were yummy. But all main dishes were non-vegan. Quality is nice, portions are small, quite pricey, helpful staff.
Read morePros: Food quality, staff
Cons: No vegan main dishes, prices, old fashioned decor
