Incredibly tasty georgian food. Feeling like we are back in Georgia with their generous hospitality. Size of portions is great. Khinkali, khachapuri, tkemali, we were coming every day we stayed in Canggu. We spoke with Georgian lady who cooked all these harvest and she advised us about the way of cooking and how they use local products to gain the same taste. Took only one photo of shakshuka because everything was so tasty and disappeared immediately. Highly recommend

I ordered these dishes and they were absolutely amazing I’m so happy with the experience! My overall rating is excellent! As you can see, I’m just one person and I finished all three dishes I found them more than enough and totally satisfying! The only thing I didn’t like was the location at night it’s hard to find, the lighting is poor, and there’s no sign outside with the restaurant’s name. Also, the indoor temperature was quite warm, and I was told one of the AC units was broken but will be fixed soon. They also mentioned they’ll be taking care of the signage and lighting issue. I hope next time everything will be perfect The food is truly fantastic!

I've never tried Georgian cuisine before but first time for everything. The dumplings were very juicy with a soup based broth in the middle with a good amount of meat. And the Georgian chocolate cake was very rich in flavor which was delicious and my partner said she would eat a whole cake almost! Only issue we thought was weird was what appeared to be the owner I presume, didn't seem to talk to us but talked to other tables. Maybe due to a language barrier. We would still go back!

Authentic Georgian flavors in the heart of Canggu! I had the khinkali, and they were absolutely delicious juicy, flavorful filling wrapped in perfectly tender dough. I also tried the tarragon lemonade, which was refreshing with a unique herbal twist. The ambiance is elegant yet cozy, making it a great spot for a relaxed meal. Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience Georgian cuisine in Bali!

The most delicious Georgian cuisine in Bali — and here’s why. After trying all the Georgian restaurants on the island, my choice is Kulinaria. Every dish here is thoughtfully crafted and made with love, because at the heart of this place is a woman who carries the culture within her — and you can feel it in every bite. Let me highlight a few favorites: — The khachapuri is outstanding, made with suluguni cheese that’s crafted right in the restaurant — always incredibly fresh and flavorful. — The eggplant rolls are perfectly balanced in taste, with a soft, delicate texture. — Tashmijabi is a less common dish, but if you love mashed potatoes — this one will surprise and delight you. — The kharcho is made with broth that’s simmered for hours before serving, giving it an incredibly deep and rich flavor. — The khinkali are also wonderful — don’t expect a flood of broth inside them, though. These aren’t the overly juicy kind. Instead, they’re packed with meat, very flavorful and moist, but not overly soupy — so keep your expectations in check accordingly. I also tried the mushroom soup — it’s not a cream soup, but a clear, rustic-style one. Personally, I found it a bit too simple in flavor, but it might appeal to those who prefer light, straightforward dishes. One thing to note: the restaurant is still under construction, and currently only the first floor is open — which means there’s no restroom on-site yet. However, there’s a bathroom available at the neighboring restaurant, and they’re always kind enough to let you use it. Evenings can get quite busy, but daytime offers a calm, laid-back atmosphere. Thank you for truly warm, home-style cooking. I’ll definitely be back.

I guess this Georgian restaurant is new in Bali, and it’s really nice and cozy. I wanted to have a balanced meal so I chose lobiani and tsacivi, and also tried a tea latte — everything was absolutely delicious. The ambience is cozy and welcoming, with beautiful paintings that showcase the culture of the country. The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home. It’s a good spot to enjoy unique cuisine with a great attitude and atmosphere. Recommend checking it out!
