Georgian Cuisine in Tbilisi
Tamar Gegechkori recommends...
Keto and Kote restaurant is a hidden gem located in the historic Vera district of Tbilisi.
Named after an iconic Georgian comedic opera, Keto and Kote's remodeled house is tricky to find if you haven’t been there already, so don’t feel bad for relying on Google Maps for the time being. It only adds to the excitement of discovery and anticipation of some truly authentic Georgian cuisine.
Mingle with locals who like to get away from overdone touristy spots, enjoy the views from the veranda, and don’t forget to try such Megrelian cuisine staples as elarji and gebjalia.
Keto and Kote, Zandukeli Dead End, 3, Tbilisi 0179, Georgia, Tel. +995 322 93 02 00
