The chef, Gia Rokashvili, uses local ingredients and serves the food with local wines. Tony had boiled beets in wild plum sauce, freshly foraged mushrooms with chili pepper, mint, and tarragon; baby lamb stewed with cumin, cooked with wild rice; fresh tonis puri, bread made in a tandoor-like clay oven. He ate with Keti Bochorishvili, former Deputy Minister of Economy and Sustainable Development, and Tamuna Gvaberidze, gallery owner.

The Oldest Newest Wine Region in the World

"A hilltop Kakheti winery founded in 2007 by an American expat and a Georgian partner that was among the first to export traditionally made Georgian wines to the U.S.; it’s closely associated with exuberant supras—massive, toasting-filled feasts—and serves a parade of regional dishes (foraged mushrooms, khachapuri, rolled eggplant with walnut sauce, lamb chakapuli, shkmeruli). Its inky, plummy Saperavi is formidable and benefits from decanting." - Ray Isle

This was my favorite restaurant in Georgia (I've been here 12 days). It was exceptional. The food, wine, art, music, and service were all terrific. Highly recommend. I loved the lighting and ambiance -- candles, indirect/soft lighting made an intimate and enjoyable vibe.

A must visit! We did a wine tasting at Pheasant’s tears and we were completely stunned! What a lovely little place. It has beautiful decor and art work. It felt very authentic and the wine was delicious. They played some music in the background and the fireplace added a lovely ambiance to the whole place. Definitely recommend doing a wine tasting here if you are visiting this small town.

Outstanding food & wine and lovely team. They couldn’t be more accommodating and even helped book us a table for dinner in Telavi. We particularly loved the fried aubergines, chicken in tomatoes and herb and honey cake. Recommend the wine pairing, all delicious. Can’t wait to come back already.

We went without booking on a Sunday night. There is an English menu. They advise what wine is suitable for you so we took a full bodied red which was amazing. We didn't finish the bottle so took the rest to our guesthouse. Food was amazing. We had an aubergine based salad and a vegetable ones. Absolutely amazing. So was the chicken stew. Not cheap, but amazing food and decor. It is worth it

Three of us went to a wine tasting here. This took place in a delightful cozy room, with a real fire, and the surroundings were really characterful. We had decent measures of six wines, and felt that this represented good value, not least because our very pleasant host gave us just the right amount of information about each wine, which enabled us to choose our favourite and enjoy another bottle on the premises. I would heartily recommend this wine tasting experience.

The place is absolutely amazing: calm and with its own charm. And the food…. oh it is amazing! I could never think that eggplants 🍆 can be so good. Big thanks to the chef 🧑‍🍳! I highly recommend this family run restaurant 😌

Absolutely loved this place, what great vibes! The Saperavi wine was very good and we ended up buying a bottle. Great veggie selection, we had the bread, butter with salt and red beans, all very yummy. Great service

Special place. Quality and fresh ingredients. Recipes that stay true to Georgian roots, on a more refined level while tasting like great home food (truly from Mum’s kitchen!). The waiters were lovely and really won me over 🥹 Must-try: the fried aubergine, chips, choux dessert, and a glass of saperavi !
