A beautiful, cozy and delicious cafe All dishes are made with homemade products.The portions are large and very tasty! We ordered Shkmeruli, beef khinkali (not comparable in taste to restaurant dishes in Tbilisi) and a huge Imeretian khachapuri, which we couldn't handle together.😅 There was also a delicious raspberry compote (they even took a rolled-up 1L jar with them😅) The owners are very friendly and open-minded people! The hostess even shared the sprouts of flowers🙌🏼

A super place!We stopped by on the way to Tbilisi. I chose a place based on reviews and for good reason, we were very satisfied and well-fed. The view is wonderful. The establishment is run by a very nice couple and their dog Pico. The khinkali arrived in about 15 minutes, very tasty and large, and 5-7 minutes later, a huge khachapuri and eggplant with nuts. Everything is very tasty. Homemade morse is a delight. We recommend❤

We were returning from Georgia and decided to have a snack before crossing the border. According to the reviews, we chose this cafe with a beautiful view of the lake and excellent cuisine according to reviews. It doesn't look like a restaurant, but we trusted the reviews. We were simply amazed by the quality and delicious homemade food. The owners themselves meet. They cook themselves. The guys are working for the result. I've been eating khinkali all my vacation: Shekviteli, Kobuleti, Batumi. They turned out to be the most delicious and juicy here. Also a barbecue. The most delicious and natural turned out to be here Raspberry compote. It's just a piece of art. In general, all the famous restaurateurs of Kobuleti and Batumi were left behind after this cuisine. We finished our vacation in Georgia with the most delicious homemade Georgian lunch.

A wonderful place, Delicious food, everything is fresh, fast delivery- everything is from the heat, from the heat. Very hospitable beautiful hostess❤️ Khachapuri is awesome- the dough is so crispy, the most delicious khachapuri in Georgia. Pancakes with meat, lots of fillings - very tasty. I didn't even have time to take a picture of Kharcho - they ate it quickly. Very convenient location: on the road from and to the border. Thank you for the warm welcome!!!We'll come back next year!!

The cafe is called SHIM-SHEMO. We stopped at this magical place for the first time on our way to Adjara, and we liked the cuisine and the wonderful, intelligent hosts, who are very hospitable and can cook delicious food. On the way back to Moscow, we stopped for two days and walked around the reservoir, visited the old fortress and the temple. The cafe is located on a mountain above the reservoir and while sitting over a glass of wine you can enjoy the views of the mountains that rise above the water.

Delicious home cooking, a pie with cheese and beetroot tops is magical, khinkali is juicy, a family dish with potatoes and meat was enough for three children, compote with raspberries is incredible. Very hospitable hosts, nice view, come by, you won't regret it.

I was led to rave reviews, but alas. The prices are like in a good restaurant in Tbilisi, but the service leaves much to be desired. We ordered a barbecue, and brought pork with a lot of fat fried in a frying pan. And to be honest, one disappointment instead of a delicious dinner.

Great place! Very tasty khinkali and veal chakapuli. The staff is friendly, they do everything themselves. Russians were also sitting at the next table, which is not the first time they stop here for Khinkali. The views are excellent- on the water. Although the cafe is on the road, it is quite quiet and comfortable

Maybe we were unlucky. Only khachapuri was delicious. The shish kebab is dry, the worst we've eaten. Khinkali is not very good either. The compote was delicious. I don't recommend it...

Raspberry compote is rudimentary, but it also costs more than the average in Georgia. But khinkali is the worst thing I've eaten not only in Georgia, but in my whole life. The meat is very spicy, not naturally red in color.

Great road cafe! Unusual, but very tasty khachapuri (the crust is like cheburek, which is pleasant in its own way and most importantly - not salty cheese) I also recommend khinkali, it feels like homemade, not store-and-restaurant. Lots of meat and great taste. Well, a separate respect for raspberry compote! 👍 You can also pay in rubles

there are no minuses found, only advantages! The four of us ate for 100 lari, barely got out from behind the table. Khinkali is a complete flight, raspberry compote - I will remember it for a long time! And the guests had a couple of glasses of wine (I'm not allowed to drive, but I took a sip for a taste - it was sherry, and awesome, not that they are now smelling in Crimea). I recommend the cafe to everyone from the bottom of my heart. And plus, an awesome view of the reservoir! And the owners are the nicest people, God bless them!
