A small, intimate bistro on 14th Street (East Village at 2nd Ave) and two full-size restaurants on the Upper East and West sides of NYC.
Vision
Saperavi NYC is an authentic Georgian restaurant and wine bar chain with three locations across Manhattan: the East Village, Upper East Side, and Upper West Side. Named after Georgia’s legendary native dark-skinned grape, we honor an 8,000-year culinary and winemaking legacy, bringing the warm hospitality of the traditional Georgian Supra feast to New York City.
ABOUT GEORGIAN WINE
Nestled at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, Georgia is a treasure trove for wine enthusiasts, boasting an unparalleled viticultural heritage that dates back over 8,000 years—making it one of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world.
Georgian wine is not just a beverage; it’s a vibrant tapestry woven with history, culture, and tradition. The country’s unique fermentation method in qvevri—large clay vessels buried underground—infuses these wines with distinctive flavors and character you cannot find elsewhere.
With over 500 indigenous grape varieties flourishing in this fertile soil, every bottle offers a glimpse into Georgia’s diverse terroir—from crisp whites to bold reds—the spectrum is nothing short of breathtaking!
We’re excited to introduce you to Georgian wine. It embodies not merely taste but also our history and culture. Share it with us.

EXCELLENT Based on 88 reviews Posted on Yelp Isaac R.Verified This place was an incredible experience. The Adjarian khachapuri simply melted in our mouths and was absolutely delicious. Everything coming out of the kitchen looked amazing, making you want to try the entire menu. Great flavors, great experience, and definitely a place I'd highly recommend.Posted on Yelp Anna S.Verified This place is great! If you haven't had Georgian food, definitely come try them here. I recommend getting the appetizer platter to try all the dips and small bites. They do all taste very similar - creamy and earthy. We tried this creamy white sauce chicken and it tasted really homey, perfect for a cold chilly day. The service is great as well - very attentive.Posted on Yelp Claudia A.Verified I has never had the opportunity to eat before authentic Georgian Cuisine. The cheese, wines, dumpling, honey cake freshness and flavor are the best. The lamb chops with salad delicious. The service and cleanliness of the place were excellent. I will visit as often as possible.Posted on Yelp Irika S.Verified Super tasty food, good drinks, and cute vibe. We absolutely loved everything we got and everyone was very friendly. However, it was super busy and the outer area can be cold so I would recommend getting a reservation.Posted on Yelp Rebecca C.Verified Servers were attentive and helpful in answering questions about the menu. Did not have wine but the selection mated well with the menu flavor profiles. Space is a bit cramped but also makes you feel cozied up in someone's kitchen in a way. Arrive hungry - it's all delicious!Posted on Yelp George B.Verified There's a snowstorm in New York , however Saperavi is open ,thank God for this delicious place that never disappoints, thanks to Saperavi my houseguests and I are in so much comfort this evening is one for the memories , we didn't dine in , We ordered a takeout. All I can say is thank youPosted on Yelp Anastasiia N.Verified A cosy place with an amazing food and vibe. You get a great service there, everyone is very welcoming.Posted on Yelp Ronit S.Verified Great food, great service, Sanford went out of his way to ensure we had our food delivered in a timely manner. He was courteous and helpful and we will definitely order from Saperavi again. Worth every penny. THANK YOUPosted on Yelp Jillian B.Verified My husband and I finally had the opportunity to check out Saperavi... and boy oh boy was it worth it! We got the eggplant rolls, adjaruli, and crispy pork ribs. Eggplant rolls were smaller than expected, however the walnut sauce was so rich that we felt it was the perfect starter. The adjaruli is probably my favorite that I've had in the city.. cheesy and rich, and the bread was perfectly crunchy around the edges. By the time the ribs came we were stuffed, but they were delicious. It was a lot of food so we did end up taking some leftovers home, but it was super delicious!Posted on Yelp Debbie F.Verified Food: My friend and I shared the megruli khachapuri and the shkmeruli. Both were absolutely delicious. The latter was outstanding. I was only visiting town for a few days, but have already told my friend that I want to go back! Ambience: Even for a bistro, the tables seemed crammed together too much, but maybe that's just how it is during the very cold weather; there's room to expand in a covered outdoor section. But it's overall a small place, tight fit. Service: Extremely good. Wait staff very attentive and pleasant.
