Chama Mama, a place where the magic of gastronomy happens! One of the most celebrated restaurants in the United States, Chama Mama is an intimate and vertiginous place filled with culture and traditions of ancient Georgia. Full of flavors, colors and history, classic Georgian cuisine is presented here with a modern spin. Situated at the crossroads of Europe & Asia, Georgia has fallen within the Silk Road orbit of many cultural influences where the foreign ingredients and styles were incorporated into their own. That is why the Georgian cuisine is unique with its rich, extensive interplay of a wide array of tastes.
Georgian cuisine & organic wines are offered in this industrial-chic restaurant with a terrace.

I like Georgian food, so I decided to try Chama Mama for dinner. The atmosphere was cozy and the service was friendly and attentive.
We ordered Georgian salad, lamb khinkali, crispy smashed potatoes with tkemali, lamb chops, and chicken mtsvadi. The khinkali were a bit mediocre — I’ve had better at other Georgian restaurants. Portions also felt a little small for the price.
The Kindzmarauli wine paired nicely with the meat, and we finished with a Napoleon dessert, which was very good. Overall, the food was somewhat mediocre. It wasn’t bad, but it didn’t really stand out.

Loved the whole experience! You will get to have authentic Georgian food that’s tasty beyond words.
The Khachapuri is a dish you’ll never forget for the rest of your life.
The staff are well versed about the dishes and cuisines. Service could be a bit quicker.

Sooo amazing. Want to go back with more than just 2 people so we can order more stuff and sample everything.
The best meal I’ve had in ages. Nothing seemed exotic, but everything tasted so different that anything I’ve had before!
Husband got a wine flight. I got a Pretty in Pink mocktail. We ate the lamb stuffed grape leaves before I could get a picture. Then we had Adjaruli Khachapuri- Georgian bread filled with amazing cheese, raw egg yolk, and butter that they mix at the table. Imagine Georgian raclette level cheese pulls. It was so good!
Husband’s entree was Braised Lamb and Tarragon Stew (Chakapuli) which was very good. We got a side of house fermented vegetables. I got the Pork Mtsvadi which is Marinated Pork skewers served with tarragon tkemali, red onions and pomegranate. It was a party in my mouth.
Dessert we split the honey cake. Again, amazing and unique. Kind of graham cracker flavor, whole grain, honey and cream combination. I also got a cappuccino.
So, so good. Can’t wait to go back.

I’ve been to this restaurant’s Chelsea location before, and while this one isn’t quite as homey, the food, service, and overall comfort are still absolutely five-star! We ordered two appetizers and two mains to share among four of us, and it was the perfect amount. The standout dish for me was the Georgian sampler—so flavorful and beautifully presented. I’ll definitely be coming back!

One of the best restaurants in town. Unique dishes exquisitely prepared with walnuts, cheese, vegetables in ways you’ve never seen. Ask for their wine recommendations and check out their holiday specials. Photos are from Thanksgiving in prior years.

Checked off Georgian cuisine off my bucket list. Food was hearty and delicious. Service was exceptional. Everything I imagined Georgian food would be.

Chama Mama is a fantastic Georgian restaurant in NYC — not just for the food, but for the people. While I did run into a small issue during my visit, what truly stood out was how the situation was handled. The owner is one of the kindest people you could ever meet in New York, and I say that with full confidence.
Their genuine hospitality and care completely turned the experience around and left a lasting impression. It’s rare to feel this level of personal warmth and attentiveness in a city as fast-paced as New York, and it honestly made my day.
The food itself is flavorful and unique — a wonderful introduction to Georgian cuisine, from the warm khachapuri to the delicious grilled meats and vibrant salads. The setting is cozy and inviting, perfect for a casual dinner or special outing.
I will definitely be returning — not only for the food, but because kindness like this is unforgettable. Thank you again to the owner and the team at Chama Mama for turning a small hiccup into a heartfelt experience. Highly recommend!

First time experiencing Georgian cuisine. Everything was interesting and flavorful. The only lacking element was that the deserts were underwhelming. The staff were delightful, charming and helpful. Finding out that it was a birthday dinner, not only did the staff put a candle in the dessert we ordered, but they gave us a second on “on the house”. Thank you!
