"You can count the number of dedicated Georgian restaurants in the Austin area on one hand—or one finger, really. So the next time you find yourself hypnotized by photos of cheese-filled bread canoes online, head to The Depot for your own tasty khachapuri, complete with a molten egg yolk swirling in the middle. Sami Sumeli has a full roster of Georgian classics—soupy khinkali dumplings, savory lamb kebabs, grilled eggplant rolls stuffed with cheese and walnuts—plus regional wines you won’t find anywhere else in town. If you really want to lean into the experience, start (or end) the meal with a shot of chacha, the clear Georgian brandy that goes down dangerously easily and might make you forget you’re sitting in a strip-mall train depot." - taylor tobin, nicolai mccrary
