If you are searching for the best Georgian dishes in Prague, Vazi Prague is the place to begin your culinary journey. Georgian food is warm, comforting and made to be shared among friends and family. In this guide, we introduce the dishes you absolutely must try when visiting our Georgian restaurant.
1) Khachapuri – Georgia’s Signature Cheese Bread
Khachapuri is one of the most well-known Georgian dishes in Prague. Made from soft dough filled with rich, stretchy cheese, it is served freshly baked and warm. At Vazi Prague, we offer several regional variations, including:
- Adjaruli Khachapuri – Boat-shaped bread filled with cheese, egg and butter.
- Imeruli Khachapuri – Round bread with cheese inside and outside.
Soft, rich and incredibly satisfying, khachapuri is often the first dish guests fall in love with.
2) Khinkali – Juicy Handcrafted Dumplings
Khinkali are handcrafted dumplings filled with seasoned meat and flavorful broth. They are traditionally picked up by the top knot, bitten slightly and enjoyed slowly so you can sip the juice first. Khinkali represent the heart of Georgian hospitality — generous, comforting and made for sharing. They are one of the most popular Georgian dishes in Prague among locals and travelers.
3) Pkhali – Colorful Vegetable Appetizers
Pkhali is a collection of vibrant vegetable pâtés made from spinach, beetroot, carrots and beans mixed with walnuts, garlic and fresh herbs. These dishes are served with fresh bread and highlight the balance between bold and delicate flavors in Georgian cuisine. Light, healthy and visually stunning — perfect for a shared table.
4) Ojakhuri – Family-Style Roasted Pork and Potatoes
Ojakhuri means “family-style” and it truly reflects the warmth of Georgian cooking. Tender pieces of marinated pork are roasted together with potatoes, onions and herbs. It is served sizzling hot and bursting with flavor.
5) Shkmeruli – Chicken in Garlic Cream Sauce
This comforting dish features chicken baked or grilled, then simmered in a creamy garlic sauce. It is rich, aromatic and especially popular during cooler months. If you like cozy dishes that feel like a warm hug — shkmeruli is your match.
6) Grilled Specialties
Georgian cuisine features excellent grilled dishes, including marinated meats and vegetables cooked over high heat. The result: smoky aroma, deep flavor and tender texture. These dishes pair beautifully with Georgian wine.
7) Georgian Wine Pairings
Georgia is known as the home of natural winemaking. Many of our wines are made in qvevri — large clay vessels buried underground. These wines have a deep, earthy and unforgettable taste, especially amber wines, which pair perfectly with khachapuri and grilled meats.
