Klike's Khinkali

We went to Klike’s Khinkali the first night we arrived in Tbilisi as it’s pretty close to our Airbnb. We weren’t sure where to go inside (see the picture), until we saw some people exiting through the door on the right. The place is somewhat underground but filled with energy of young people having a drink or a quick meal. The prices were very affordable for both foods and drinks. The only downside was that we had to order minimum of 5 khinkali’s of the same type and couldn’t do like 1 of each to try out (we’ve never eating this before). We’ll definitely return.

I think trying khinkali is a must in Georgia. Service was slow, it took a while to order, bring drinks, there was no interest, there were a lot of people behind the bar and I don't really understand why. It would be nice to be told how to eat properly and why when bringing khinkali, I miss the friendliness there. It didn't convince me or inspire a love of Georgian cuisine.

Not gonna lie, trying Georgian food for the first time here was a good decision. Great atmosphere, attentive staff and generous food portions. Also, we got the khinkali board and the Georgian cheese board for 65 GEL including tip in the bill, which is not that bad.

I'm so sorry to give this place a low rating, the place itself It's very cool since it's on a basement, but I do have to address the very strong smell of mold and humidity, it was so strong. It was so hard for me personally to breathe and be able to enjoy the food. I think this is what added to me not having a pleasant dining experience. Also the menu doesn't explain but if you are here for the Khinkali you can only get five of the same at first, which it's kind of hard to do when you want to try them all. Especially if you're here as a tourists or you have come to this place because you saw the TV show somebody feed Phil. The atmosphere fell very blunt un inviting or welcoming whatsoever. And when it comes to the taste of the food, to be honest it wasn't any special thing as the show makes it seem like, it didn't have any amazing taste. We have the same dishes at other places that honestly were more tasty and better mix and match options, but I do appreciate that they were willing to accommodate us without a reservation.

The food was very good there, the only bad thing was the service, as it wasnt the most pleasant one and the man who was our waiter forgot a out the chacha we ordered, added it to the bill and didnt allow to pay us back with cash- we had to take a plastic bottle with chacha to home which was a bad finish to the situation in my opinion; also you cannot mix the khinkali in the board so be prepared to have their choice (the mushroom one isnt almost spicy at all)

Klike’s Khinkali was a nice experience overall. Cool and friendly staff. It feels like the place has become more popular and now leans a bit towards a touristic vibe rather than an immersive local one. The food was good, but the special khinkali were too salty for my taste. Short wine list but enough. I love the bodega/tasco-style concept, very cozy and authentic. The only downside was the television on the wall, which kind of ruined the mood, but overall it was a nice and affective

I was watching Somebody Feed Phil and my friend from Culinary backstreet Kristo recommend to have khinkali. Love the place and the khinkali were delicious!

The place is very average. We went there after watching Somebody Feed Phil and it was the worst meal we had in Tblisi. We tried different meat and vegetarian khinkalis and they were okay. Nothing special to warrant a trip to this specific restaurant.
