Georgian fusion small plates, unique khinkali, subterranean cocktail bar
"Offering something original to the Charlotte Street dining scene, this trendy restaurant takes its name from the Georgian dish khinkali. These dumplings come with a ‘handle’ at the top and fillings could include langoustines, pumpkin or beef. Accompanying the khinkali are a selection of Georgian-influenced small and large plates, from chkmeruli to pkhali. Keep the night going with a trip to Kinky, their basement bar serving a selection of creative cocktails, accompanied by a techno soundtrack and the same fabulous buzz as the restaurant." - Michelin Inspector
"A London eatery offering Georgian cuisine with unique dumpling fillings." - Annick Weber
"Kinkally is a Georgian restaurant in Fitzrovia that could double as a Bond villain’s lair. It’s very cool, very dark, and very photogenic, but the dishes are hit and miss. Get the tender guinea fowl or meltingly soft baked aubergine and you can have a good time at this Charlotte Street spot, sitting next to a collection of branches which are dangling in mid-air like an art exhibit. The Georgian wines are also excellent, and after a few glasses you and a group can all but drown out the music, which is actually a soundscape featuring rainfall, the occasional haunting pipe, a rattle here, and some drum beats there. The khinkali themselves are disappointing—small, underfilled and stingy on broth—but this isn’t where you go for comforting Georgian classics. Instead, go for Instagram story content, a fun, subterranean bar, and the sort of stripy black and white dumplings that'd please Beetlejuice. photo credit: Kinkally photo credit: Sinéad Cranna photo credit: Sinéad Cranna Pause Unmute" - Sinéad Cranna
