Toné Café

We absolutely love the food here and come every time we visit Coney Island and stay in Brighton Beach. The food and service is outstanding and every dish we try is spectacular. Georgian food is soooo good! Highly recommended.

Although I’m Russian, I truly love Georgian cuisine — it’s unique and absolutely worth trying. There’s a small Georgian café near my home, and while I’ve never dined inside, it usually looks decently busy, which I take as a good sign. I always order takeout. The staff is always polite and courteous, which I really appreciate. I’ve bought their bread several times — it’s outstanding, fresh out of the oven. However, it’s always packed in a thin paper bag, making it almost impossible to carry. It’s so hot that you either burn your fingers or struggle to hold it properly. Today, I ordered Adjarian khachapuri to go. As you may know, the egg yolk on top is the key element of this dish — but unfortunately, it spilled all over the box before I got home. That was really disappointing. The khachapuri itself was still delicious — as good as it could be without the yolk — but I do wish the takeout quality matched the dine-in experience more closely. I will definitely continue supporting this place — with just a few improvements to packaging, it could be nearly perfect.

All the food was delicious! Khinkali are very juicy and have thin, neat dough. Khachapuri is delicious - so cheesy! I will definitely come again! It should be noted that this restaurant also has good service!

ideali georgian dessert, nice bakery, must try their dessert and coffee, Georgian food is always delicious and usually add a nice flavor to any restaurants bay.. definitely worth the visit again. Highly recommended

This is the best Georgian restaurant in the area. Food is the best , so delicious. I like small authentic cozy restaurants like Tone. Very Nice stuff. Please keep going. Have a great business .

Best Georgian food in NYC. Real atmosphere and vibe.

Lady in the picture cleaning windows. Just sprayed a bunch of cleaning solution right over all these fresh breads. Also we had hair in 2 out of 4 dishes we ordered. Could be a great experience if they were taking better care of food ethics.

Delicious home made organic food ! 🥘 Georgian style food. I love it ! 🥰

This place is soooo cute! Came after bath house hungry and relaxed, and it turned out absolutely satisfying experience! The food is so fresh and delicious, I got my favorite lamb stew that was cooked in its best with different spices and herbs that made meat taste so delicious! Will definitely be back there for trying other dishes. And the deeps - oh my god, beets, spinach and eggplant- I loved this combination!

After the long stroll from Coney Island to Brighton Beach, I was ready for some dumplings. I found this spot through an online article about local gems (many of which were sadly closed), so I landed here--a couple of blocks from the boardwalk. The service? Absolutely unbeatable. I felt as though they'd read my mind--everything I needed, they had covered. I went for the classic Georgian soup dumplings, packed with beef and incredibly tasty. I also tried the emerald green tarragon soda. If you hadn't told me the flavor was tarragon, I'd never have guessed--it was subtle to the point of mystery, but now I can say I've tried it! The atmosphere was lively, buzzing with diners. I avoid restaurants with TVs, but the music festival showing added a unique vibe. Even with every table full, the noise level was low enough to have a real conversation--no shouting required. Next time I might have to go for the cheese boat.

Food was not as I would of expected Service was great But it's mostly a place for bread that's their specialty If you decide to try them order only their amazing breads w bread choices W cheeses or meat or beans Amazing Food is not great Dry chiken Soup too watery Salads are good too So know what you want to order Ask the waiter he will steer you in the right direction Also I don't do corn or vegetable oils They don't have olive oil Unfortunately for me it's not a great choice

I only ever got the khinkali with beef to go here but OMG they are so good and so filling! I was super hungry and craving khinkali like I've eaten in Georgia but most places sell them frozen or with pork mixed in. This place has a choice of pork, beef or lamb and that's a huge difference! They were yummy and filling and made just the way they're supposed to be. I'd love to one day sit down and have a full restaurant experience here.

We took a very long walk out to Brighton this summer, largely on hopes of trying out this Georgian restaurant's apparently world famous khacipuri. This bread boat of melted cheese with an egg on top did not fail to disappoint--with those ingredients, how could it? But this was moony, swoony, fight your partner for the last bite good. The cheese permeates every nook of the perfectly-baked fresh bread while the egg cooks slightly on the bubbling cheese and mixes. Tearing it apart and eating it somehow feels simultaneously fine dining and a bit primal. There are--perhaps shockingly--other options besides melted cheese bread boats. We also shared grilled sausages with pomegranate seeds--very tasty, the pomegranate providing a nice punch of contrast to the rich merguez. I didn't entirely love the Georgian wine we tried-- a bit sweeter than I like for a white--but was fun to try.

This cafe is good enough for lovers of Georgian food. It was a good service too. But having been to many excellent Georgian restaurants in Georgia, Russia and US, we were not super impressed. There is a room for improvement definitely!

The chatbostnili (a cold eggplant dish) was our favorite. It's so full of amazing flavor and goes well with the baked pies. The mushroom cheese called solo ketze was also very good. I usually don't eat meat but the chicken on the hot plate was not bad and pretty tender. The meat dumpling was too meaty for me.

Lovely, small Georgian restaurant with friendly service and hearty portions. A little walk from the Brighton Beach subway stop walking away from the beach and the hubbub. Prices much more reasonable than Georgian restaurants in Manhattan, and the food was just as delicious, if not more so. I was too hot to feel like drinking wine, but there is a good selection of Georgian wines. I will be back in the colder weather to try some. I was in the neighborhood with my son so he could practice his Russian, and the wonderful server helped him out with that as well.

Pretty good spot! This is my second time having Georgian food and my boyfriend and I were pretty obviously not Georgian so our server was super patient with us and explained how to properly eat the food. I wish I remembered the names of what we got but we got the dumplings and the cheese boat. Both were great, but also pretty filling. The dumplings were HUGE, almost the size of my palm and I couldn't eat more than one. The cheese bread boat was delicious but definitely would not be able to eat it alone. Recommend sharing it with one or two other friends. Also this place sometimes doesn't accept card so bring cash just in case!

Food 5 had cheese boat w egg 5 cheese taste like goat cheese , mozzarella mix. Awesome Mushroom in melted cheese 5. Very cheesy. Soup dumpling. 5 huge. Size of a fist. Had beef. Thick dough. Had semi sweet white line. Taste like trialing Deco 5 clean. Had Jordan music. Mostly locals. Service: 5. Most locals were rating traditional salad. I'd love to try potatoe and pork dish, salad and pastry next time.

Generally good and tasty Georgian food. Best to go with a group of people with whom you can share everything. Their pear flavored soda is a large bottle best shared with others, but it's also very sweet. We couldn't finish it. Best to sit indoors because the outdoor seating is on the street with high and fast traffic. Someone trying to park their car also bumped into the shed we were eating in and rocked the whole structure. It felt very dangerous to eat out there. We were also exposed to lots of smokers while eating outdoors, so it made the dining less enjoyable. Our waiter was very pleasant and attentive. He came out to check on us often and got us everything we asked for. Good service.

Overall I enjoyed the food here and thought it was very authentic. Our waiter didn't speak much English, which was fine, but I also couldn't find him half the time. We ordered this garlic chicken dish at his recommendation-- the sauce was delicious but the chicken was a tad dry. I liked their soup dumplings, which provided that perfect comfort food feel on a rainy day. Salad was fresh. We tried the cheese bread, I thought it was alright but a bit salty (all the dishes were a tad salty, actually) and heavy (but it'll definitely fill you up!).

This place was so freaking good omg omg omg Zomg omg I remember it like it was yesterday omg omg omg race!!!!

We ordered miruli, trio and eggplant Everything was so good. Would definitely recommend and would return next time I'm in NYC.

I had a ukrainian friend recommend this place and it did not disappoint! The dumplings were awesome and massive, though I prefer a thinner skin. The breads were delicious and everything was unique. I've never had Georgian food before, but I am now a fan of it! Get that cheesy bread and ask for other recommendations. I'll have to be back and try the other things.

Yum! First time trying Georgian food and had to come to Brighton Beach to try it out. Really interesting cuisine, come here for the authenticity! The cheeseboat is so great.

Only one couple was dining in on a cold Saturday afternoon. After 5pm, the cafe filled with customers representing an older demographic of Georgians & Eastern Europeans. A line to the bakery, adjacent to the cafe, to purchase fresh bread. Simple, casual decor in the cafe. Chill Georgian music playing in the background. Our waitress was accommodating, food was brought out quickly. Adjaruli khachapuri $12/$15 small/large, was the best adjaruli khachapuri I've ever had. Plenty of gooey cheese, fresh and delectable bread, great ratio of cheese to bread. Very filling--split this and you both will be full for the rest of the day. Sad that they no longer do the Yelp check in promotion. Taking off stars for the smelly bathroom. Staff smoke in there, and I though I'd suffocate from spending a few minutes in that tiny place. I started going dizzy from how heavily fumed it was. I reeked of cigarette smoke the whole day afterwards. How hard is it to take a smoke outside, in the fresh air?

I've had the khachapuri here before, but on this occasion, our megruli khachapuri tasted distinctively like a souped-up Dominoes pie, in the best way possible. A bit on the heavy side for a summer day, but thankfully accompanied by ocean breeze. The sour cherry juice was amazing - overly sweet, but somehow with a highly addictive tartness as well. Service is quite slow, so don't come here in a rush. The music was also "eclectic," consisting of slow jam remixes of Radiohead and other intriguing melanges...

Love Tone cafe! My new local favorite! Great quality food with large portion sizes. Everything tastes homemade. The dumplings are bigger than typical dumplings. They are soup dumplings so be careful when biting in to them! The lamb was tender and goes great with the fried potato side.

Best Khachapuri ever... YUMMMMM. If Willy Wonkas factory was for cheese instead of chocolate it would be this.

Food was delicious! Service is excellent! Adjika bomba I recommend everyone to come here if they wanna taste real Georgian food!

Best Georgian food in Brighton beach! About 10 minutes walk up to Neptune, so it's not on the beach, but just a few minutes' walk north of the Brighton beach Q station. We recommend the pkhali appetizer, which is three big balls of vegetarian spreads. Goes well with any of the khachapuri breads, which are big enough to share between four people. For a vegetarian entree, we loved the Qotnis lobio, a hot bean stew. Try the tarragon soda! You can eat very well here for under $20 per person. There's a bakery in the other half. Gender neutral restroom in the back is clean, and the service here is much friendlier than most places in the neighborhood. Pay cash or card.

Review is for pickup/take out. Food was opened and tasted 20 mins after pickup lamb Shashlik/kebab was pretty dry and was not cooked on charcoal or wood. It shouldnt be called shashlik if it is cooked on a gas or electric grill. Lamb 'shashlik' is 4/10 Adjaruly is questionable at best. I asked my adjaruly with 'two egg yolks'. You can see what we got. One egg was completely cooked and second one was half way cooked. Dough is sub par, not crinchy or airy as it should be This adjaruly is 3/10 at best. Khinkali is 5/10

This was, remarkably, my first time having a proper sit-down Georgian meal since I visited Tbilisi four years ago. This highly anticipated meal at Tone Cafe more than lived up to my expectations. We ordered the pkhali trio and a half serving of bread to start, as well as the khinkali dumplings with pork. By checking into Yelp, we also got a complimentary small khachapuri bread. Our order was more than enough for two people. The phkali trio, which comes with spinach, green bean, and eggplant mixes with ground walnuts and spices, was absolutely delicious. The fresh parsley and pomegranate seed toppings made all the difference. Eaten as a spread with the warm bread, the phkali have a nice heft that for one person could easily be a meal. We thoroughly enjoyed the khinkali dumplings. Our waitress helpfully suggested pork, rather than lamb, as the filling. Indeed, the pork broth was very flavorful. She also suggested that we eat the dumplings with our hands and biting into it carefully so as to not squirt the broth all over. Though larger and spiced more strongly, these were reminiscent of Shanghainese pork dumplings. We would happily return to Tone Cafe to try more dishes. Service was great and the ambience simple but lovely.

The service, the food, the restaurant, the placement are just perfect!!! I can't explain how I love this restaurant because I eat there everyday and recommend it to everyone

Delicious food in Brighton Beach. Just a short walk from the boardwalk. Good menu with lots of choices. The Khachapuri was A+++ lots of cheese and the dough was great too! The hinkali were great too. Tasty meat and dough not too thick. Great place to come with the family and enjoy some delicious georgian dishes.

After my vaccination at Coney Island Hospital, it happened to be lunch time. Checking into Yelp for interesting places, I stumbled upon this place. I ordered a Ajaruli Khachapuri to go, along with a smaller cheese bread. (I don't recall the name, but the nice lady recommended it for children - maybe they aren't excited about the runny egg, she said.) Now, I had to wait a bit because the oven was full, but wowee was that amazing. I had a few fresh bites before spilling the yolk all over myself while walking to the train. (not ideal for travel), but it was even a hit 40 min later when I was home sharing it (and the bread for kids). Can't wait to go back again and try a few other things.

10/10. If you're in Brighton or Coney, I recommend checking out Tone. The food is super good, service is great, and has a cozy atmosphere. It was my first time trying Georgian food, and I am so happy I did. Loved everything we ate.

First visit to try their Ajaruli Khachapuri. So much cheese. Bread is very soft, stuffed with more cheese. The egg adds a nice layer of complexity. Check the beverage fridge for Georgian sodas. Got a pear and a tarragon lemonades. The pear one is quite sweet. Haven't tried the tarragon one yet. Totally regret not getting a shoti, their traditional bread. Friendly staff

Hello, I'm obsessed with this place and would like them to cater my wedding, the births of any children I have, and also my funeral. I forced my friends to schlep out to Tone Cafe and I would absolutely do it again. What to order (from someone who is by no means an expert in Georgian food but really good loved every single dish): - Chakapuli: the tarragon flavor in this is SO strong and SO good, I wanted to drown in the broth - Adjaruli Khachapuri: not gonna lie, our waiter rolled his eyes at us when we ordered this, but I really can't not get the boat full of cheese and butter. And oh wow, it was really good. - Khinkali: so juicy! Really peppery! Absolutely enormous ! - Chankhokbili: super flavorful chicken!! - bread basket: no explanation should be needed for this. We had so so much fun as people who don't have a lot of experience with Georgian food -- it was a really fun cuisine to try!!! -- and everything was so incredibly delicious. Can't wait to be back, I wish Brighton Beach was easier to get to for many reasons and Toné Cafe is one of them.

Back in the day this place was just a tiny store front with a giant ceramic thing sticking out of the floor.. a giant pit that is a special Georgian bread oven. They make this bread that is in the shape of a Georgian sword. It yields a loaf that if you prefer the heel of the baguette, offers exactly what you want.. lots of crusty goodness. So I forgot about this little bakery years ago when I moved to jersey. A fellow yelper was posting this place! Looked like my little Georgian spot was all grown up... they knocked down the wall and took over the place next door! Added tables... and an expanded menu! In truth it's still the bread that has me coming back... but with my baby girl's first birthday approaching I need a joint to bring the Russian family together to break bread.. and I can't think of a better loaf to please everyone. They have a huge banquet menu for parties of 10 or more... so I will update this post in a month with more pics.. and expanded review.

I enjoy Georgian food and the eats here were pretty good, and they offer a Yelp check-in offer for a free kachapuri bread! The harcho soup was hot and flavorful, went great with the bread. The roasted potato and mushroom dish was rustic and hearty, good vegetarian option. I'd get the eggplant dish next time instead, though. They have a good variety of Georgian wines and beers, so be sure to add one on to complement the cuisine. However, the service leaves something to be desired. Had I not been accompanied by someone who speaks Russian, I probably would have left. Server took his time approaching our table, we had to initiate placing an order, multiple reminders for water. The space is small, you either have to be completely ignorant or intentionally ignoring customers. Not a fan. It's not like there aren't other options right up the road.

This is a true hidden gem. It's open since 2000, and we just discovered it. Amazing everything!!!! Although it is quite a small place, you will definitely enjoy it's ambiance , and what is more important it's cuisine , authentic Georgian cuisine. Everything's very fresh and delicious, service is fast and courteous. If you are not familiar with Georgian cuisine, that's the right place to do that. Appetizers are extremely tasty - Phali Trio- super !!!!but spicy!! Khachapuri Ajaruli, and the Tone Cafe Khachapuri are the winners !!!

TONE CAFE OVERALL: 6.5/10 Will come again but only for the boat bread with cheese. FOOD: 6.8/10 - Claypot Chicken w/ Plum Sauce Chicken was alright, a little too salty... Plum sauce made it a little better. Would possibly get again. Price was fair. Chicken a little dry. Not really a highlight of this Georgian cuisine. - Veal Stew Not good, Veal soup. Not much taste. Price was unfair for the quality and portion. - Dumpling Not good, skin was way too thick. WAYYYY too thicckkk like my girlfriend. Pork was not flavorful. Will not get again, price was unfair for the quality. - Boat Shaped Cheese Bread THIS WAS GOOOOOD, highlight of the restaurant. Always wanted to try this. Simple dish, fresh bread. Enough cheese, will get again. Price was not fair for the item type but I would say I don't mind. SERVICE: 6.3/10 Service was not good, felt like the waitress yelled at me at one point for looking at the menu too long. Was alright after, nothing too crazy. CLEANLINESS: 10/10 Clean. Didn't check out the bathroom though. ATMOSPHERE: 10/10 Decoration was definitely on point, very cozy atmosphere inside. Wooden tables.

Eat all the bread things! Bread with things on top, and things inside of bread, khachapuri and khinkali, soooo goood! Atmosphere is amazing too, with quiet family dinners and vodka soaked bacchanalias gracefully coexisting inside the cozy space. Going back ASAP, with a bottle this time.

Sometimes, the insanity that is living in NYC gets to me. Just the psychic energy required to get from point 'A' to point 'B' can sap even the perkiest girl's spirit, let alone that of cynical me. And then I eat someplace like this and all is forgotten. NYC forever: Anyway, wound up here for an impromptu brunch with hubby. I was practically peeing my pants with excitement 'cause I knew this was my big chance to finally try Adjaruli Khachapuri I mean, c'mon. Warm, crusty, boat-shaped bread with a well in the center that's filled with buttery, salty, ooey, gooey melted cheese and topped with a lightly poached egg? Um, yes please! Our server suggested we eat this slathered with a trio of Pkhalis, aka various vegetable spreads pureed with ground walnuts. We decided to go for it, and while tasty enough, I wouldn't say this is a must. We had a ton of it left over, too. Definitely better shared with a big group. And since I can never resist the lure of doughy parcels filled with stuff, we got some Lamb Khinkalis. These HUGE, purse-like dumplings, six to an order, reminded me of Shanghainese XLB since they were filled with soup, along with the aforementioned meat. Their wrappers were ridiculously thick, imo. Hubby was impressed, though, that the lamb filling didn't taste overly gamey. Our server was really sweet, even giving us a tutorial on how to eat our 'cheeseboat bread.' I think she used her not inconsiderable charm to upsell us, but whatever. I was amused when she asked us if we wanted to order some Georgian wine. It was 10 am. I would've contemplated it, but hubby vetoed the idea. Curses. Oh yeah, we got some regular Khachapuri to freeze for later, so the jury's still out on that. Bottom line: That Adjaruli Khachapuri was the stuff of carb-loading dreams. But it's the only thing we tried that I'd rush back to eat again. It's enough though.

Very good Georgian food, atmosphere is nice and good people. Khachapuri and denkali is must

There are foods one can enjoy even without feedback from taste buds, just relying on the visuals and on texture & temperature changes. Even though I lost my favorite senses, I remember eating Toné's amazing "fresh-melted-cheese-with-egg-in-a-freshly-baked-bread boat" when I still had them. That hot bread aroma when you're hungry... mmm. The khatchapuri is... well... it's really good. Their matsoni yoghurt is also the silkiest, richest cool thing to have for breakfast. Someday I'll be able to taste things again and I'll tell you about the other lovely savory things on their menu: the walnut salad, the grape leaf thing. Until then, I can still enjoy Toné's menu, albeit with some nostalgia.

Fantastic meal at Tone. The server was helpful in making suggestions and advised us that we need not order more, the acharuli was great and a meal in itself. Don't miss the Georgian orange wine and some Georgian Grappa.

I loved the imeruli, which is like a cheese bread. I wasn't so much a fan of the khinkali, which are dumplings though. The meat inside wasn't great.We got a free bean kachapuri, which was amazing. I would come again just for that and the bread. The place is small and was pretty busy when i went. I would come back.

The food is great, the service is horrendous. Come for the food, but remember where you are, and what kind of a restaurant Tone is, which totally explains why the service is basically nonexistent. It's a teeny tiny restaurant in the heart of Brighton Beach, so you know you're getting the most authentic, legit Georgian eats. My friend and I came here and seated ourselves at one of the few tables. It took forever for someone to notice we were there, and then we finally got menus. We shared the phkali trio (three different dips) and they were excellent, though not served with bread, the adjaruli khachapuri...AMAZING, and a napoleon for dessert (skip it). Don't forget to get wine! Georgians love their wine. Good prices, awesome food, pretend the waiters don't exist because they pretend you don't exist. Solid. Also, CASH ONLY, and pay attention to your check when it comes, they add 10% gratuity automatically.

As usual, amazing food. Outdoor seating and social distance protocol is in effect here. Closed off top, from rain. Try the boat khachapuri (center stage, we had to order some bread to get all the cheese out. It's like cheesy dip) and migruli khachapuri ( the one to the left that looks like a pizza). The stuffed mushrooms topped with cheese are in the clay pot and khinkali (large lamb or pork dumplings) are in the middle between the 2 different khachapuri). This and a couple of salads are enough for an appetiser for 5-8. We ended up taking home our 2 main courses, stuffed full of cheese and bread, NOT COMPLAINING! Main course, we stuck with kebabi and shish kebab. Some pork, chicken and seasoned ground beef/ pork in flat bread. Better than Turkish, 100% Georgians mastered the art of bbqing, spices are not all we know, it's keeping that bbq moist, that's the key. Who wants to chew on rubber? You can't overcook meat, this place understands that quality is key. Anyway, 2 Nd time here and I brought a small group, 3rd time I'll be bringing a small crowd. You can also stop in to take it home, call about 20 min in advance and enjoy your fresh khachapuri, khinkali or entree of your choice in the comfort of your home. I should of taken more pictures of the bakery section , next time.

Hard to believe that Georgian food is only now having "a moment." How did this not happen sooner? If TONÉ-CAFÉ is an example of how delicious and diverse Georgian cuisine is, sign me up. Had lunch there today with the wife and a friend; we stuffed ourselves silly and couldn't believe how wonderful every dish was. As a veggie, I'm thrilled when I find a variety of veggie options, and TONÉ-CAFÉ doesn't disappoint. The Ajaruli Khachapuri (there are many on the menu; this one has farmers' cheese and an egg in the middle) was to die for, and the Chabot Nili (cold eggplant) was smoky, rich and bursting with flavor. Also got and thoroughly enjoyed the Ajaruki (three-dip appetizer). The wife and friend also got the Chakhokhbili (grilled chicken) and an order of the pork Khinkali, and enjoyed both. Oh, and we got an unreal quince water; had to buy a bottle of it in the adjacent deli/bakery to bring home. And last but not least, the waitress was super friendly and attentive. Wish TONÉ-CAFÉ were closer; it'd definitely become a habit.

Yet another overdue review. I remember it was really hard to find parking before we arrived which is surprising to me. This place seems to be divided in two parts as one part is take out and another for dinning in. We dined in for dinner and order two overpriced Georgian wine which I would say I am a fan of. It's only for the occasion and hey trying their food anyway. I was led here by the amazing looking food which is obviously super hyped in my point of view. It's something that looks great and excited to try but a totally letdown. I am not saying the food isn't great. It's just not my taste. From being small portion for location wise to a bit over priced, I wouldn't recommend driving or traveling this far. You would enjoy a good meal at home with all the trouble. Well I wouldnt consider this a cuisine as more of putting a bunch of preserved veggie on a plate. The soup is like can soup put in a bowl and the dumpling I was looking forward to isn't that exciting at all. Taste isnt something I would add to the description as it's more about the look and that Instagram picture. I did enjoy their cheese and mushrooms dish but who can hate burned cheese and mushrooms. As I said, the food is mainly about putting two separate parts together. Service is good. Place is small but fits anyone pretty well. I actually love the decro.

We come here every time we are in NYC. We drive probably 40 minutes out of the way just to stop here for Kachipuri. I personally prefer the ones without egg or meat- just cheese for me. This trip we took a bit of a gamble and tried the pickles and lobio to go alongside our usual kachupuri and cheese plate. The lobio was life-changing. I already have a recipe to make at home. Walnuts may sound like they don't go with beans but the flavor is stupendous. The walnuts give a little 'meatiness' to the dish, while the herbs highlight each other perfectly. In order to enjoy the cheese platter, you REALLY need to like sheep's milk cheeses and extremely salty feta type cheeses. The platter is worth it because it appears to be crafted out of cheese along different stages of its ripening process. One is easy to eat- a fresh cheese. The next is a salty brined cheese. The third is a smoked version of that salty cheese. Finally there's an extremely salty brined cheese that is often too hard to finish. Overall, this is a favorite and will always be a favorite.

I will drive here from Queens just for their Georgian Khatchpuri and Khinkali. A true winner in my book for sure. There are few spots in Queens that serve khinkali but at some exuberant price which is a no for me. First time knowing about Georgian cuisine was from a late night NY1 channel review on hot foods to try and it turned out great to bring for Superbowl parties! Cheesy bread for everyone is a win win! The first time I went was by train and it was a little scary because I didn't know the neighborhood well haha but now I'm fine! It was just a simple bakery but nowadays it's an actual cafe/restaurant which I'm happy for them for serving for authentic delicacies! All I need for them is to make like toasted khinkalis and you can always take my money hah! I tried toasted kninkali when I visited Russia and it was just super. I couldn't have enough of it! I hope to visit soon!

Best Georgian cuisine in Brooklyn. They got their khachapuri on point here. We came here even during Covid when it was still nice enough to sit outside. Banquet style so we got to test out most of the varieties of khachapuri.

It pains me to give it less than 4 stars but my food was just okay. THE QUALITY OF THE BREAD IN THIS PLACE IS JUST OUT OF THIS WORLD. SOFT. FRESH. DIFFERENT THAN ANY BREAD I'VE TASTED. The staff was sweet but there was a significant language barrier which I didn't mind because she tried her best... it was just hard to understand her. Service needs a little help....Everything is served in the prettiest plates, cups and dishes. Its really cute. The place is not very big and has a cozy feel. I ordered the Ajaruli Hachapuri($12) and, as per the yelp deal we also got a free small khachaPuri cheese bread. The little cheese bread was pretty awesome. Soft and flaky. They have one of those authentic oven contraptions chilling out in the opposite room that you can see through the glass if you sit in the dining room. The Ajaruli Hachapuri was a bit to heavy and cheesy for me. When you get it you mix the egg with the cheese and its really cheesy, as a cheese lover this took it to a different level, a bit too much for my liking. I tried my friends kabob with veal and beef it was just okay I wasn't impressed. She waited about 30 minutes for her meal. They said it would take longer to cook but that is a bit much considering there was only two more tables in the restaurant actively eating. The Georgian pear sparkling drink was just horrible. So bad. Maybe its an acquired taste but it tastes like artificial preservatives with a sparkle. Definitely don't ever want to try that again. My suggestion is if you go to Tone try the bread! Share an Ajaruli Hachapuri if you love cheese and eat the bread!!! I will be coming back for the bread......

Very tasty Georgian food. When we go to Brighton Beach, we go there for sure. It's very nourishing and homemade. Thank you. PS. There is a weird 10% service charge at the end of the check - not the tip.
