"Nunuka makes the strong case that Madrid needs more Georgian restaurants. Just devour their adjaruli khachapuri, packed with flawless melted cheese that you can sop up with the crisped bread surrounding it if you need convincing. Dishes at this inviting spot in Chueca look like jewels—the delicately rolled beet carpaccio’s ruby red color against a white radish sauce is so stunning you almost don’t want to eat it. But do so, because the crunchy, sweet, and spicy flavors are explosive. And the leek meatballs drenched in a creamy kefir, citrus, and nut-infused sauce, are a must, especially when paired with one of the Georgian wines from their short list. The space is as jewel-toned as the food, with bold sofas, turquoise napkins, and cute patterned pillows. It's exactly where you should be for a date night or casual catch-ups with friends." - lori zaino
