Service is so bad that they don’t even speak with you, just ignoring. They have free tables but lie that there’s no free tables. Don’t recommend this place if you are normal person

If you want to feel a real Georgian vibe and taste Georgian cuisine - welcome. But this place is very popular and touristic, so in high season the quality is getting lower.

That's great! A chic interior inside, cool and clean. Prices for khinkali are below average, not frozen, a lot of broth and meat. We were both at lunch in the afternoon and in the evening. After 20 o'clock, there is a queue for boarding, as the place is popular not only among tourists. Live music, dancing in the evenings. The hostess girls are very nice and all the staff speaks Russian. I recommend trying homemade lemonades, khinkali of all kinds and salad with nuts. I have never tasted tastier in Georgia. From the nuances - in the evening, on a first-come, first-served basis, they can put you on the second floor, it is impossible to order khinkali there, although they cook on the veranda. 10% will be included in the service receipt.

A decent restaurant in the center of Batumi!
The price-quality ratio is excellent.
Khinkali is well the most delicious here, the price is 1.5 lari per piece (approx. 50 rubles).
I drank beer for 500 rubles and ate a lot of hinkaley! One day I shooed: and dried apricots, and mushrooms with cheese, and khinkali with mushrooms, and khinkali with meat, and beer - 1000 rubles out!
There is live music, but only on the second floor - a banquet hall, uninteresting... And khinkali cannot be eaten on this 2nd floor.
It is better either on the veranda, or on the 1st or 3rd floors.
Important:
- khinkali is cooked for a long time: at least 30 minutes to wait, and maybe even more during rush hours;
- tips of 10% are automatically added to the bill;
- on the 2nd floor with music, but without hincals;
- there is almost always a queue at the entrance, but it moves quickly.

A good Georgian restaurant!
It resembles in style the format of a banquet restaurant: the location of tables, tablecloths, and the atmosphere itself....
There are two floors, on the second floor there is a veranda area.
There is live music.
And one more thing at once — if you want khinkali, then you can order them either only on the ground floor or on the veranda (apparently so that there is no smell in the hall :))
The service is good and fast!
According to the menu, there are quite a lot of things.
I ordered cappuccino (since there is no boiled coffee), mushrooms on ketsi with suluguni and eggplant with nuts.
I liked everything, the portions are good.
By prices, ₽₽₽.
All of the above came out in 30 lari (~905₽)
Clean room and toilets.
Quite a good location, in the city center.
P.S. Without a photo, because I forgot to take a picture first, and then it was not beautiful :)
But a day later I decided to visit this institution again.... III khinkali — for five!
Gorgeous khachapuri (it is also "purified" in the common people)!
The bill is also 30 lari — coffee, khinkali 3 pcs., khachapuri without dough, sour cream, tkemali and a tip of 10%.

My favorite restaurant in Batumi. Upon arrival, we definitely go here for delicious food, high-quality wine, impeccable service and entertainment. In the evenings, on the third floor there is live music with wonderful vocals, incendiary Georgian dances in national costumes, and then a disco. You will be welcomed here as dear guests, and you will be escorted as close friends. I recommend it to everyone!

The interior is very beautiful, clean and inexpensive. 4 floors. The main thing is very tasty! Khinkali for 1.5 lari, if not meat, then 5 pieces of 5 lari. Soup is a huge portion) the order is brought quite quickly if the time is before lunch, because after that you first need to stand in line on the street (as we understood, Georgians are allowed to go ahead), and then wait at least an hour inside the order. You still need to shout to the waiters to bring / take something away.

We recently visited Tavaduri and were completely delighted! The atmosphere of the restaurant is simply charming, the aromas of spices and delicious food - all this created a truly unforgettable evening.
It is impossible not to mention khachapuri! Khinkali with juicy meat, juices are already splashing!
The prices, considering the quality and the atmosphere, are very pleasant. We will definitely come back here again to try other dishes of Georgian cuisine!
I recommend it to all lovers of Georgian cuisine, and those who want to try it for the first time!

Great place!!! Very tasty!!! The portions are excellent!!! Beautiful!!! They don't always serve you quickly, but it's not critical!!! Prices are normal!!! Khinkali is probably the best in Batumi!!! Well, I can't compare it with Moscow restaurants either. Khinkali should be perfect here!!! Thank you, Batumi!!!

A must-visit!!!
We had a vacation with my husband in September 2024 in Batumi. We had a great time at the Tavaduri restaurant. Very tasty cuisine, good service, huge portions. Khinkali 5+. We will be happy to come again. Keep in mind that in the evening (during the season) you will have to wait outside when a free table appears. But it's worth it ❤

Excellent restaurant in three languages - English, Georgian, Russian.
They planted it right away without any problems.
We ate delicious. Fast, pleasant service, despite the heavy workload.
According to the prices, the check is average for Batumi.
Clean, pleasant, the music is not very loud, it's one thing to talk.
Khinkali with meat is huge, with mushrooms and smaller cheeses. A portion of Caesar for two. They brought everything quickly enough.
I liked the wine from kvevri.
The desserts are beautiful and delicious.

A crackling restaurant! Everything is divinely delicious, the serving is very fast compared to the whole of Batumi! The service is excellent, the waiters are friendly and responsive! Waitress Kristina for 10 points! Thoroughly try the khachepuri on a skewer! It's a bomb! On day 4 in Batumi, this is the best place! Welcome to visit!

We asked the locals, they recommended this restaurant, and indeed, of all the places, the best. They are greeted with a smile at the entrance, the waiters are tired and pleasant. Khinkali, khachapuri and homemade wine are all you need in Georgia. At prices, there is probably nowhere more pleasant. There are different halls, tables are reserved in one wing in advance, there was music and a program, but they do not serve khinkali, we came without reservation, waited for 10-15 minutes, we were escorted to the second floor in another wing. A wonderful place, I advise you to visit. In others, where we went, the staff shows with all their appearance how tired they are of working, I was very surprised by this fact in Georgia.

A restaurant with reasonable prices in the center of Batumi!
We decided to hold an extreme evening dinner in a popular place in Batumi, the only one where we found the famous "Mama Hinkal".
I met the restaurant with a queue at the entrance, in which we stood for 10-15 minutes, they put us on the balcony with a beautiful view.
The food is quite tasty, but there was a very long wait for the dishes to be served.
Instead of the promised 25-30 minutes, "Mama Hinkal" was brought in 75 minutes, which was very upsetting and spoiled the impression of the restaurant.

I did not like the only, but decisive moment, I want to note right away. We have been resting in Batumi for four days. We read in advance and found out where it is delicious and good in Batumi. On the first day we went to this restaurant. The impressions are very positive, delicious khinkali, rich wine, excellent service. But we have been waiting for these 8 Khinkali for a very long time, 35-40 minutes for sure. But the landing is complete, maybe that's the whole point? There was a queue at the entrance, I had to stand for 15 minutes. Unfortunately, the second visit discouraged any desire to return here. Everything was delicious again until a separate moment: I really wanted satsivi (a traditional Georgian dish), it was not on the menu, the head waiter assured me that there was. I ordered it. They brought a monstrously inedible dish of chicken parts, where for some reason there are two ridges and not a single breast. When I asked what I could eat here, the head waiter, raising his voice, began to pick out pieces of chicken and throw them into my plate. The tin is full. Now I probably will never be able to eat satsivi. Summary: the restaurant is good, just DO NOT ORDER "homemade boiled chicken" and by the way it costs 65 lari (almost 2000 rubles). The rest is good , but the sediment remains…

I liked the place, it was atmospheric. Shish kebab and kebab are fried on the street near the restaurant. We had a rest in Georgia, went for a walk around Batumi and, according to reviews, stopped in Tavaduri. The place is popular, I had to wait 15 minutes for the table to be free. The service is fast even with a full landing. The waiter speaks Russian, so there was no misunderstanding, they explained that the child needs the first, not the sharp one. The only thing I didn't like was the completely dry meat in ojahuri, the meat just wasn't chewed (returned to the kitchen. We ordered khinkali, they are for 5, Caesar is wonderful, chicken soup is delicious. We liked the Lyulyakebab, the child said it was rubber) still, the place is good, I recommend it! The point for Ojahuri cannot be removed))))

It's a great place. The restaurant is quite fashionable and spacious, has two floors plus balconies above. Everything is beautifully decorated. The staff is friendly, they will meet and escort you. The service is quite fast and attentive. The portions are huge, we had to take them with us, because we couldn't handle what we ordered. Everything is very tasty. The choice of dishes is large. The prices are surprisingly very affordable. I can safely recommend this institution.

The only place in Batumi with decent service. There is no nationalism. The waiters are kind and attentive in everything. The girls are doing great. The girl Nino served us just great.
The place seemed a little dark, but when it's delicious, you don't pay attention to anything.
As they say, when it's delicious, then it's delicious. And most importantly, at reasonable prices.

Overall, it's a good place for appearance, but being a waiter myself, I can see perfectly well how much the restaurant is getting worse🥲
It seems that the food is good, really Georgian, but there is no service at all
They came as a family for the second time, at least they forgot about us, they remembered later when they called. They called the waiter as a waiter, because they don't have badges, hahaha, they don't even have badges!!
They asked for a menu, the "man" was sent to the menu by qr code… Should I have offered Wi-Fi in that case? He made his face unhappy, went, found the menu and (from my point of view) threw it on the table. They asked me to take an order from us, the waiter said, "just a second!" But 5-10 minutes passed and only after I had to get up and come over, ask again, he came over. The wait turned out to be very long, the khinkali was prepared for an hour (even in the best restaurant in Yekaterinburg, dishes cannot be prepared for so long) ... they forgot about us a couple more times, well, that's all, it was an extreme trip to this restaurant, maybe the last one, before that it was a little better, the waiter at least came up and asked or removed the napkins and was with a satisfied face, not sullen and scary☺️
In general, I recommend it! If you want to wait, but only khinkali is delicious to eat😘
Date of the visit 20.07.24

There really is a queue at the entrance, they defended quickly, in fact there are a lot of spaces: on the ground floor there is a hall, upstairs the hall is louder - live music is playing and singing, we were sitting on the veranda - very dark, to be honest (photo attached) there are clearly not enough waiters or I don't know what the problem is , then everything will take a long time to wait: the bill, food, even just asking for an ashtray
Khinkali is delicious, they gave 40 lars for two glasses of wine, mullet fish and khinkali
Everything is delicious, four for a very long wait, we just waited for khinkali for about an hour, I understand that there is a large flow, but the aftertaste remains

The best Georgian restaurant in Batumi. If you are not confused by the huge long queues at the entrance, then it is definitely worth a visit. Khinkali and kindzmarauli are just a piece of cake.
What disappointed me was mom-khinkali - ordinary khinkali is much tastier and juicier, but it's done more and more for the sake of the show, so if you don't mind the money and want something unusual, then you can order

The restaurant is too overpriced. No "Caucasian hospitality", everything is too pretentious.
Boarding - if there are seats in the main hall (it is no longer the season and a weekday), they offered a table only on the veranda (it will not be cold - there are IR heaters, but all photos will be in the red spectrum - who cares - take into account!)
Waiters - everything is too long! No one approached us until they asked for the menu themselves. The same situation is with the order - until he called, no one came up. They look bad at the table, the dirty dishes were removed only when we stacked them on the edge of the table. They constantly walk by, but they are probably busy with some other important business, and not with the guests of the restaurant - for example, talking to each other.
Nothing supernatural about food! We've been to many other places, everything was faster and tastier by a lot! The only thing is the submission of "mama khinkali" - this is of course. Such a lure for tourists.
And one more thing - you will ask to pack food in a container - keep in mind that it is paid!

I would like to highlight the staff
The waiters are very pleasant, attentive and friendly. They don't forget about you, like in many restaurants
The food is also on the level
Khinkali and meat definitely
The only thing is that the khinkali has cooled down slightly, although it's not a problem for me
And the atmosphere is gorgeous! On the second tier, it's like entering the wine cellar of kings!!!

A story about the agony of pleasure
I have a best friend. She came, like me, on vacation in Batumi. Seeing her is always a special event. And so, my husband and I, and she and her daughter, planned a meeting at the restaurant. We decided to have dinner at a "cool" (as her daughter thought) and a little pretentious restaurant called "Tavaduri".
The dinner was great: the food was delicious, the service was excellent. We were not even confused by the fact that pork knuckle was served with the barbecue, which, as we believe, was poisoned. I arrived home happily tired, sat on the phone for a while, took a shower and went to bed. The eyes immediately closed, anticipating a sweet dream.. But then I felt a lump rise in my throat... It was the most hellish night of my life, I've never been so poisoned!
I take a couple of sips of water and run back to the bathroom to cuddle with my white friend. It seemed that my stomach had shrunk in size to a thimble, and it was spewing out everything it had eaten.1,2,7,13 - I lost count of how many times I ran to the bathroom. So until the morning! It seemed that my head would burst with pain!
I spent the next 4 days with poisoning!!!!!! This is the first time this has happened to me!
As a result, we sat in a restaurant for 378 GEL and I can say bluntly that I'm talking about this money...La!

I've heard a lot of recommendations about this place, but I got there only the second time) I am a frequent guest in Batumi, but this institution began to enjoy such popularity only this summer. In the evening, in the middle of August, we stood in line with friends for 35 minutes, eventually we didn't wait and left. We arrived for lunch on 25.08 at 15:15 - again the queue at the entrance, waited 10 minutes and finally we managed to sit down) The restaurant is very beautiful, well renovated and pleasant atmosphere. We got a table on the 2nd floor. The air conditioners work very well that even most of the visitors were sitting in blankets😅 ordered chicken soup for the child (delicious soup, not spicy ), chikhirtma- very disappointed, it looked like an ordinary broth and did not have the right saturation! But what everyone praised very much was khinkali and they were really gorgeous! I would even say the best in Batumi! Thin and delicate dough, lots of broth and delicious minced meat. The restaurant had a full boarding and the waiters did everything very smartly) in general, the impression is very good, but for the national soup, I lower the asterisk.

An excellent Georgian restaurant where you can eat delicious national dishes. Khinkali is one of the most delicious that I have tasted in Georgia, very large and juicy. The staff is responsive, despite the language barrier, they did their best to understand and fulfill all wishes. It is very convenient that there is a smoking room on the second floor, it is not necessary to go down and go outside to smoke.

We found a restaurant, excellent according to photos and reviews. There's even a queue at the entrance to have dinner, it looks great. In fact, everything is different, the hall on the ground floor may be normal, on the second floor there is a dining room with loud music and noisy guests, the appearance seems to have found itself at a wedding in the noughties. Khinkali is not served on the second floor, perhaps because of the full house. Nevertheless, we came to Adjara to try khachipuri, but as it turned out, the taste of the food was a solid three. In fact, I can't say that the place is bad or not at all tasty, but definitely not five stars.

In general, despite 5.0 general out of 1000 reviews, there are a number of strong disadvantages:
1) if you go to an evening party, there will be live music, but it is inadequately loud. It is impossible not to talk, or even to give the waiter an order normally;
2) it is not clear why the air conditioner is turned off at 18 degrees. It feels really cold, a lot of people ended up asking the waiters for blankets.;
3) despite the generally delicious menu, the pork kebab was not half chewy, and the khachapuri in Adjarian style brought butter / margarine President in a package ...
There are almost no questions about the staff, everything was quite responsive, there is a manager at the entrance. But there is a funny nuance - some waiters bring dishes to special points on the floors, while others are spread on the tables on the spot. So more than once we have observed a picture when it is clear that your dish has been brought, but you are sitting and waiting for the second waiter to deign to serve it to you.

Well then. The first experiment was unsuccessful.
We came on the recommendation of the staff of the hotel where we stayed and the Internet at about 7 pm on Mon.
We stood in line for 40 minutes to enter.
I really wanted delicious khinkali.
When our turn came, we were offered a place on the terrace - we agreed. It was a mistake: it's hard to imagine a self-respecting restaurant offering such tables, here you have all the charms: street noise, smoking people, poor table lighting. It felt like we were unloved relatives and we were planted anywhere. We took the menu ourselves, accepted the order from us, but warned that the Khinkali would wait 50 minutes (by the way, they brought them in 30).
First, they brought homemade lemonade (pomegranate?) it tastes like soda with a lot of syrup - not tasty. Then, after 15 minutes, the cucumber-tomato salad was brought: delicious, but it turned out to contain several pieces of hot green pepper. Due to the poor lighting, we did not immediately notice it and my husband ate a whole piece of pepper. He is allergic and avoids the acute. It was unpleasant, but we survived. After another 5 minutes, the waitress casually threw a plate of salad on our table, we did not immediately understand whether it was for us or temporarily parked this dish on our table. Having illuminated the dish with a flashlight, we decided that this was our salad with eggplant) it turned out not to be tasty. Then they brought us what we came for - khinkali. They turned out to be .... different) there were different amounts of minced meat everywhere, somewhere the meat was with a good portion of pepper, somewhere there was no pepper and salt at all. Perhaps the cooks got so steamed up that they stirred the minced meat and molded khinkali in a hurry. On the plus side: the khinkali was cooked, the dough was thin and they were brought to us earlier than promised))
We ate faster than we expected a table, and screwed out of this wonderful place in search of dessert.
The service is so-so
The taste of the dishes is so-so
The situation is so-so

We lived in Batumi for 4 years, we always went only to Tavaduri. Birthdays, holidays, with visiting friends, just to have lunch -only there, "Tava duri" never failed. A variety of dishes (but we always preferred Georgian cuisine only), taste, service - everything is at an excellent level. Young people are trying very hard, experienced staff help, the hostel is always friendly and try to land faster, advise places ... Now we have arrived, immediately there, and only pleasant emotions. The management and staff did a great job! Thank you for the many happy memories!
