A beautiful new Georgian restaurant with a large summer terrace and an atmospheric interior. The menu has Georgian dishes with an Italian accent, such as satsivi with prawns and mini-khinkali with pesto, and the other way round: spaghetti with suluguni and Svan salt, or lasagne with adjika and pomegranate.
