Elardzhi

A Georgian restaurant surrounded by the old Moscow mansions of Khamovniki, with an atmosphere reminiscent of southern resorts. The meals here are cooked exclusively according to family recipes. At weekends there is live music, and you can play backgammon or checkers while waiting for your order. The main feature of the restaurant is its mini-menagerie: the living corner by the entrance is home to songbirds, rabbits, and a goat. 

Elardzhi’s menu offers classic homemade Georgian cuisine based on traditional dishes: khachapuri, satsivi, lobio. You can also try the restaurant’s namesake specialty – a porridge made of corn flour with plenty of suluguni cheese. The list of dishes is supplemented by all sorts of pickles and sauces, which are also prepared according to family recipes. 

In the warm season, the restaurant courtyard becomes the site of public events, such as 35 mm film screenings, art and photography exhibitions, and master classes on cooking Georgian cuisine.
