SAPERAVI UES

Loves my lunch here! The pizzas are so delicious. You have to get their Georgian dumpling with meat, it’s like a crazy soup dumpling. Love their sausage dish. Don’t skip dessert here they have some great options. Definitely a good spot for a date and I will be back to check out the rest of this menu.

I had a wonderful experience at this Georgian restaurant today. I stopped by between 4 and 5 p.m. for a late lunch/early dinner, and everything was spot on. My server was very friendly and knowledgeable, took the time to explain the menu, and made excellent recommendations. I ordered the Adjaruli — a beautifully presented baked bread shaped like a boat, filled with melted cheese and finished with an egg yolk. It was rich, comforting, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this place for both the food and the service.”

This was my first time eating at an authentic Georgian restaurant, what an amazing experience! The staff was incredibly attentive and gave tips on how to properly eat Georgian dumplings which was crucial. Each dish was one flavor bomb after another I have never tasted anything like this. An absolute must visit! We will return to explore the rest of the menu.

A true hidden gem! I had an amazing experience at Saperavi. The food is absolutely delicious — full of authentic Georgian flavors. I especially loved the khinkali, Adjaruli KHACHAPURI, and, of course, the wine, which was rich, bold, and perfectly paired with the meal. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. You can really feel the passion behind everything they do. If you’re looking to discover Georgian cuisine or just want a warm, memorable dining experience, I highly recommend this place!

Since we visited their original Lower East Side location last year, we had to try their new spot on the UES, and we loved it! Our favorite as always is the bread with cheese. There are also plenty of delicious traditional dishes to try, and don’t miss finishing with the strawberry dessert (photo attached). Highly recommend this place!

Saperavi is an amazing spot! The flavors were rich, the portions were great, and the service was warm and welcoming. Highly recommend for anyone looking to try something new and delicious.🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪

HOLY AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! I was floored with everything about this place. The service, the ambiance, the drinks and THE FOOD!!!! Never have I felt such a need to go back to a place before when I don't live in the city!!!!! Also as someone who doesn't know Georgian food, they explained Everything TO ME!!!! So nice

Hubby and I finally got to try Saperavi for brunch! While they had the typical brunch with egg dishes, we opted for more of the typical Georgian dishes. We ordered the traditional khachapuri with the cheese and egg yolk, followed by the Georgian salad with tomatoes, cucumbers and herbs, and 2 orders of the dumplings khinkali, both in meat and the spinach cheese. We definitely felt the heaviness of the cheese lunch. The service was extremely attentive, our server George knew a lot about the dishes and had great recommendations. He was always checking in on us and made sure we were comfortable (especially with our baby!) Overall really great hospitality and service. Food was good but definitely heavy. Perfect way to warm up in the winter.

Delicious food and such friendly staff. Fast service and never disappointing. I strongly recommend you come here either for lunch or dinner

A new Georgian spot in the UES! We really enjoyed the Georgian classic Khachapuri here; comes in a big shareable portion as a great option for an appetizer. They have a cute outdoor seating area; since it was filled we sat inside, which also had a nice vibe. The Napoleon cake was a favorite for my party. Very sweet but also quite light!

I was invited to dinner tonight at Saperavi in UES by my doctor who is also one of my favorite BFFs. Neither of us had eaten at a Georgian restaurant before and we were both pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and wine, the good sized portions and reasonably priced dining. The staff was very friendly and very attentive. Our waiter - George was spectacular and we came away feeling absolutely delighted !! We were seated outside and the decor and location was amazing - not forgetting to mention that the weather was perfect !!

Just came back from dinner here and it was delicious! My friend got the khachapuri and I got the chicken skewers and everything was delicious. Welcome to the neighorhood, because we are in dire need of good food in the UES and Saperavi is helping remedy that issue! I felt a little boring ordering the chicken skewer, but was feeling something lighter and now I wish I ordered the rest of the menu bc it was so delicious. The chicken was cooked extremely tenderly, warm, and the sauce had a nice gentle heat to it. The onions crisp and fresh, the potatoes and broccoli that accompanied it roasted to a perfect texture. Simple but delicious. The khachapuri was also very solid, and while not my first time enjoying it, could tell it was really great quality. Great job, Saperavi!! Wishing you all the success :)

My husband and I love Saperavi! The food is delicious and they serve generous portions. For me, the standout dish is the eggplant salad. It's so unique and incredibly filling. I also love the mushroom and onion dish. The service is polite and prompt. Pretty decor, spacious back room. We've already been twice and we're excited to go back again!

Started with their Georgian-style spritz -- light, refreshing, and full of flavor. It was the perfect drink to ease into the evening and set the mood for everything that followed. Next came the Khachapuri, a warm, cheesy bread that's one of Georgia's most popular dishes. The crust was soft and golden, and the cheese inside was rich, gooey, and perfectly melted. Every bite was pure comfort. Then came the Khinkali, Georgia's signature dumplings. I had one filled with seasoned meat and another with cheese, both perfectly shaped and full of flavor. The texture and warmth made them the ultimate cozy dish. To finish, I had a layered honey cake that was light, creamy, and delicately sweet -- the perfect way to wrap up the meal.

It's a lovely place! we came here after watching a movie at the Angelica. We ordered the khubedari which they don't have at the moment but they will have from tomorrow onwards. They are updating the menu as well. The server was very friendly and helpful. We asked for wine recommendations and he gave us good ones. definitely ask him for his recommended wine choices. The places rather on the small side, they have about 10 tables proceeding two people tables, but they also have a bar where you can sit. The food was extremely delicious and authentic and I would definitely come back here. The prices are very good as well.

Wonderful Georgian Restaurant, serving freshly prepared delicious Georgian specialties. Lovely ambience and great service.

I live around the corner and am so happy to see a restaurant in this space thriving. Finally came recently with a friend and sat at the bar where Giga (sp?) was so kind and helpful and explained the different dishes and the best way dig in to each. My aunt has always made khachapuri so I was only familiar with one type but learned that all of the cheese breads on the menu were khachapuri but each type was named for the region and how they are made in each. We tried two different the adjaruli and the imeruli (the type my aunt makes). Both were great. We also got the dumplings and some Georgian wine. Everything was amazing and the service was fabulous. Will definitely be back often. I will say I think the best experience to try these dishes is in person rather than takeout. I did order takeout of the imeruli one night after as well.

This place is a great addition to the UES. Super friendly staff and they were able to give recommendations on what to get.

Always greeted with a warm welcome -- and the food is magnificent/ comforting. The wine is worth the trip alone !!! George is the consummate professional going above and beyond to ensure a wonderful experience from beginning to end. It is so beautifully decorated too. I am so glad they are my neighbor.

So excited to have this new Georgian restaurant in my area the food is absolutely delicious. Had the kinkhali last week & had the adjaruli khachapuri & the chicken and walnut sauce with a bottle of saperavi & it was delicious!

Amazing amazing amazing. Best khinkali and khachapuri. Can't recommend more. We love the food, we love the place--a real gem in UES.

The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The food was amazing and very filling. Prices are great. I will definitely go back here. We had the dumplings and they are out of this world! Great little place and friendly staff.

The food in this place is INCREDIBLE!!! Everything we ordered was delicious! The meat dumpling is a classic but do not skip the cheese and spinach one. The service is also spectacular! The staff clearly take pride in their restaurant and are super helpful in helping you pick items! The interior is also very authentically decorated and beautiful. I can't wait to go back!

Just had Sunday lunch with my husband and two adult kids, and we all loved this restaurant. The place is comfortable, spacious, and pretty. The staff couldn't be nicer! But of course, it's the food that will keep us coming back! We started with the beef Khinkali which was better than the best soup dumpling you've ever had. Next was the adjaruli that everyone talks about. A little rich for me but delicious. My kids flipped over it. The Chicken Shkmeruli melts in your mouth. Chicken Tabaka another winner! Crispy but not dry with an unusual, delicate sauce, lighter than the Shkmeruli. Try both. :) The Chashushuli, a traditional veal stew was also wonderful, tomato based and served with fresh bread. The big surprise was the Penovani Lobiani! A flakey pastry square stuffed with a smoky bean puree and topped with assorted pickled vegetables. The combination of flavors was so delicious. My daughter had a glass of their special wine. I'm not a drinker, but she loved it. We were too full for dessert. Unfortunately, there were no leftovers! We'll be back!
