Ciskari Tbilisi

Restaurant & free space

""Ciskari" in Tbilisi's Turtle Lake is the most beautiful, breahtaking place in the city. I like it for the location and for the amazing restaurant here..."

Do you have a child? A puppy? Are you on your own and just need to relax? Then Ciskari is the place for you. It is at Turtle lake, where you will get by cable car. You must start walking on your right and you will find glass heaven.

It is the most beautiful and breathtaking place in Tbilisi. It is a restaurant and a free space for everyone. They have various activities during the week, my favorite one being the yoga days. They're also trying to add many new things daily...

I like this place, because it is an open air space with a lot of trees and plants on top of Tbilisi and it is open for everyone who wants to have a peaceful connection with nature. 

The menu is amazing and the chef updates it every month. You can have some Georgian food there but also Asian or European. The menu is so varied that if you have an issue with choosing (like I do) it’s going to be a problem. My favorite thing was their burger and ribs, but now, since I decided to become a vegetarian, the spring rolls are my favorite. Oh! And I almost forgot the chef’s special gnocchi.

Unfortunately, the restaurant only works from spring season to autumn season. In winter I live without Gnocchi.

Pho Asian Food

A taste of true wok

I think it is the real fire that gives the wok dishes, especially fried noodles, the kind of flavor that reminds me of Georgian national barbecue, Mtsvadi!

Soviet Border

Historical brutalism

Tbilisi's center has all the nice places but the soviet parts surround it like a fence. To me, this part is the more unique and interesting...
