A very strange thing happened:
I stopped by, ate, the food was excellent (and for this money it was just excellent), the staff was quite nice.
I waited for my friends, and as soon as they came in, the owner changed from good-natured to negative (we didn't understand why at all, they literally didn't even have time to undress).
Well, in fact, we were kicked out "go to other restaurants." The children were upset.

Delicious, cozy at home. 79-year-old grandfather cooks. He loves Russians. He treated me to some delicious cognac. We took shish kebab from chicken, the meat is excellent, the khachepuri is the most delicate, the salads are also decent. He said that the cafe starts working somewhere from 10.30 am not earlier.

Grandpa is really very nice and welcoming. That's all we have on the plus side.
We saw 3 tables. It's a basement covered with carpets and paintings. We went in, there were visitors from Russia too, the second one apparently just got rid of a large company, we were put behind the third one. There are oilcloths on the table, reusable napkins under the plate, plates, glasses. Oilcloths, glasses are greasy and dirty, greasy. They began to wait for the menu, but the first table was very talkative: and how many children, and which wife, and how many years, and who helps you, and that's all. The menu has been waiting for a long time, therefore. We decided on the order quickly, although the menu leaves are quite specific, you will understand. Then we waited for 10 minutes for people from the next table to chat and take our order. There was Ajarian khachapuri on the menu when Grandpa came over. after about 10 minutes, we named him. He threw up his hands, said that he did not do such a thing, would not do it, he did not have such a thing and left. He did not take the order further. We sat for 3-4 minutes more, then the order was not accepted, and we left. So I can't appreciate the food
He's alone. I think that it is comfortable here only if you are the only visitors and you are not embarrassed by the lack of cleanliness

I don't understand how the cafe scored such a high score. I've been living in Georgia for 2 years now and this is the first time I've seen this. I don't care about the surroundings, it's even fun, the main thing is that the food is delicious, but it's not. It's hard to find worse food. It's just tasteless. The kebab is rubber, khachapuri is like a piece of tasteless bread, even cheese is not felt. At least they didn't get poisoned. It seems that they just buy something in the store and quickly warm it up. The toilet is a hole in the floor, I don't care, but the ladies are shocked.

An absolutely wonderful place in Borjomi. Someone wrote that it was like visiting my grandfather. That's right - at Grandfather Nodar's! A wonderful man, he has worked as a cook in various restaurants all his life and is now resting and working for himself. The Tourist cafe does not have chic interiors, exquisite dishes, there is not even a lot of space, because there are only 3 tables (three!!!). But if you manage to get at least one of them, then exceptionally delicious food, home comfort, cordiality and hospitality of the host are guaranteed to you! And it's not expensive at all. Nodar Georgievich, dear! Long life to you, health, human happiness and all the best to your family! You are a very kind and bright person! Thank you for being there! We will definitely come again, this time with the baby!
P.S. I successfully brought the sauces that you presented to Yekaterinburg, where we ate them with pleasure and remembered you) Thank you very much!

I don't know where the five stars came from. At the entrance, there was an idea to tactfully run away, but decided to believe the estimate of 4.9. Ordered. I go to the toilet, and there's a point ( in the truest sense of the word). You need to be able to spoil khinkali and kharcho. They did not eat, tried, calculated and ran away.

1) the liver is bitter and sour, in the end it ate only the heart
2) there is very little meat in khinkali, thick dough and it is a little undercooked
3) bring bread and sauce without asking and then include it in the bill. We don't really eat bread, we didn't need it and we didn't need the sauce.
4) only my daughter liked the kebab, she did not try it herself

I join the enthusiastic reviews. Batono Nodar from Nodar Dumbadze Street, thank you for not abandoning us, hungry tourists! As soon as we found your cafe, it became clear where you can always eat in Borjomi. Lobio, khinkali, fried fish, kharcho, we all ate and everything was on the level. And the cognac that you treated us to on our third visit is not inferior to the branded Granelle. I regret that I was asked to take a bottle with me.

The kitchen is super mega, especially the kebab in ketsi. I recommend this restaurant to those who want to find themselves in the Georgian flavor and feel real hospitality!!! The prices are very pleasant - 2L Kindzmarauli, chacha, two kebabs, kharcho, two salads, khinkali 5 pieces, pickles, a total of 107 GEL in total.

One of the authentic family cafes, the best in Borjomi, in my opinion. The host is a high-class chef, very welcoming. Kharcho with the taste of real lamb, cabbage rolls, stuffed eggplant, French fries, khachapuri. Everything is cooked with a soul, at home, quickly and relatively inexpensively. The toilet is made the old-fashioned way, if you are a squeamish person, it is better not to go there.

A pleasant homemade cafe in the basement of the house, the prices are average, as everywhere in the city, the interior is questionable, we have collected everything that is possible for decoration, but quite cozy. The host is friendly, the food is delicious, but the khinkali is most likely from the freeze

From the good - a nice host and a delicious vegetable salad. That's where the advantages end.
Khinkali is a persistent suspicion that they are purchased. It is difficult to cook this in the kitchen in Georgia. It's not even a disappointment-it's a shame. They have already written about unsanitary conditions and the "hole in the floor" toilet.
It's a pity, it could have turned out to be a nice place without pretensions, but the kitchen and the squalor of the toilet kill the whole impression.
