Askili Orchard is a true gem that recently appeared on the New York dining scene. This is not just another Georgian restaurant it’s a place that reinvents the classic flavors of Georgian gastronomy with elegance and innovation. The menu offers a wide range of traditional dishes, but each one comes with a refined, modern twist. From beautifully plated starters and fresh salads to hand-rolled khinkali and perfectly baked bread, every plate feels like a balance between authenticity and creativity. The presentation is exquisite, and the flavors are bold yet harmonious you can taste the respect for tradition while enjoying the sophistication of fine dining. The atmosphere of the restaurant is another highlight: stylish, warm, and welcoming, with a modern bar that perfectly complements the dining experience. It’s the kind of place you can enjoy for both a casual evening and a special occasion. As a Georgian, I couldn’t be more proud to see our cuisine represented at such a high level. Askili Orchard sets a new standard, and I believe it will soon become one of the city’s most talked-about culinary destinations.

I had a wonderful experience at Askili. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the service was attentive and friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. I especially loved the modern interpretations of traditional Georgian cuisine — creative, thoughtful, and truly memorable.

The best Georgian restaurant I’ve been to in the city so far! Chef Maya is so sooo sweet. We tried the truffle khachapuri which was absolutely delicious. The desserts were really innovative as well, must try the pistachio cheesecake!

From the moment I walked in, I was struck by how elegant and inviting this restaurant felt. The interior design is stunning—warm lighting, tasteful décor, and thoughtful details that make every corner feel special. It’s the kind of place where you instantly relax and know you’re about to enjoy something memorable.

Amazing spot with elevated Georgian cuisine! The chef’s signature veal stew kharcho was absolutely delicious, and the Georgian garden spreads were fresh and full of flavor. Lively atmosphere, attentive service, and a perfect mix of tradition with a modern twist. Highly recommend!
