Bread House Bakery & Cafe

“ I'm not Georgian, but I'm thinking of moving to Georgia after trying this place. The country, not the state. The biggest call to fame are the Khinkali (meat dumplings) and the Ajaruli Khachapuri (those bread, cheese, egg float things). I showed up on 5 separate occasions in the afternoon and evening, and they always had a table for me, so reservations aren't too necessary unless you're bringing a big crowd. If you need to feed multiple people, better to order ahead of time and bring everything to your house instead. Of this restaurant's menu items, I've had: - Chakhokhbili - Khinkali - Ajaruli Khachapuri - Chashushuli - Satsivi Satsivi is the least liked out of them for me. It's basically chicken in garlic sauce, but it's cold. Appropriate since it's an appetizer, but I, in all my illiterate glory, was caught off guard by the chill temperature when I first tried it. My most favorite is a tie between the Ajaruli Khachapuri and the Chashushuli. As a fan of pizza and eggs, I do appreciate the Ajaruli Khachapuri's bold decision to forgo tomato sauce and go all in on the sunny side up egg at the center. It is a hefty, baked item, so I suggest bringing a partner to share. Otherwise, you would most likely have to save it for leftovers. For people who like beef stew, Chashushuli is as close as you get. One final thing to mention is that they give you a generous portion of baked bread to have alongside your meal. If you're trying to reduce carbs, this place is temptation central, and you should probably skip or request they don't give you any or only a little. If you are not and like freshly baked bread, this place is Heaven. Don't know if they include free baked bread in deliveries or pickup, though. Expect to pay a maximum of $30 (tips included) if you have one entree with no dessert. ”

“ I've been wanting to give this place a try for a very long time. We finally got a chance to come for dinner. We were immediately seated after arriving.The place is small and cozy, with a loaded bakery counter situated in the back alongside another counter that's loaded with jarred and bottled goods. The counter with the jars and bottles also has the Georgian flag hanging over it and the brick walls have framed pictures and cultural clothing hanging on them. We got the eggplant boat, which is marinated and grilled eggplant, squash, bell peppers and sweet caramelized onions, seasoned with fresh herbs and purple basol. Hubs loved the eggplant boat and said that it was his favorite item all night long. Daughter was going to order the Stuffed Cabbage, which has chopped meat and rice with Georgian herbs. Sadly, they didn't have it available because it was seasonal. She chose Chashushuli, which is slow cooked beef stew with fresh herbs and house bread served on a summery clay plate, and thought it was very soft and delicious. She said that she never had meat stew that tasted like this before. The flavors were out of this world and she would order it again. Hubs ordered the Chanakhi, which is slow cooked lamb stew with seasonal vegetables, Georgian seasonings and fresh herbs, served on a summery clay pot with house bread. The presentation looked cute but Hubs liked the eggplant boat more. Lastly, I got the Ajabuli Khachapuri, which is a baked boat shaped pie with gooey, cheesy cheese and a raw egg that you stirred into the cheese. This was nice and delicious and is usually a favorite of mine whenever I go into a Georgian restaurant. Service was friendly and fast. I was really surprised at how quick our food came, considering everything was freshly made. Will definitely return to try other items on the menu! ”

“ I can't believe I didn't know this place existed! It's the cutest little bakery/restaurant. Our server was super sweet and made suggestions as well as answered all of our questions. I loved every single thing we ordered and wish I had more room in my stomach to try more. The food came out quickly after we ordered. We already are planning our trip to return and try more off the menu. ”

“ If Bread House has no fans, I'm literally DEAD. DEAD I say! No, but who was going to tell me amazing Georgian food was a hop skip and a jump from my house?? It's a very small, VERY cute little bakery with five tables for dine-in. There's tons of parking all around. We ordered the Gebarabude salad, Ajaruli Khachapuri, Julien, and the Phkaali Trio to share. Great googley moogley...how I've missed Georgian food!!! The Ajaruli is a cheese lover's dream (certified cheese lover here). And the eggplant rolls in the Phkaali Trio - PERFECTION. Our server was so so sweet and answered all of our questions. I'm already planning my next visit. ”

“ We started with great bread (Shoti) and butter and then Khinkali (steamed dumplings), which were great! Then I had Lamb Lula Kebab, which was a little dry for me, so I needed a lot of dipping sauce. That did the trick, I enjoyed it. MY wife had the Julianne Chicken , which she loves. Nex time, I will try something different. Friendly service. ”
