Lolita started a little rocky for me… there was no organisation of seating first of all, staff do not organise the customers and thus seating is essentially a free for all, first come first serve. Furthermore, this place was PACKED FULL with very little seating remaining at 12:45 on a Tuesday in early September, a little noisy but very multicultural which is a plus - I heard Russian 🇷🇺, American 🇺🇸, Georgian 🇬🇪, German 🇩🇪 and I think Ukrainian 🇺🇦 as well. I’m English 🏴, so there was a very good mix of people here! However, once seated and I got my menu things improved massively… the young Georgian dude serving me was really cool, spoke fantastic English and was super polite and professional. Service was super quick and even the food was super quick to arrived, maybe 15 minutes maximum which is insanely quick for how busy it was at Lolita. I ordered Shakshuka and bread 🍞 🍳 🍅 🧅 🫑, Eggs Benedict with bacon 🍳 🍞 🥓 and a Cappuccino ☕️… it was amazing, Shakshuka was 8/10, bread was 8.5/10 (veryyy good, better than I expected), Eggs Benedict with bacon was a solid 7.5/10 and Cappuccino was solid like 8/10. All this comes to 53.10 GEL (£15.68) and was well worth the price, I would definitely recommend dropping by for a quick late breakfast if you are in the area! P.S - I have previously visited with my mum and the ricotta & nut tortellini mushroom was pretty good (7/10) but unfortunately I didn’t get any pictures.

Pretty popular spot with good food. The service is quick most of the time. A lot of younger locals come here to have a meal. I cannot say any of the dishes I have tried were exceptional (except for eggs Benedict maybe) and I want to try them again but the price/quality ratio is very descent. Chicken wings were spicy and the portion was pretty generous. Chips with cheese were a big strange since the cheese was stiff and it took a lot of effort to break it apart. The salad with pumpkin and bacon was pretty good. Pizzetta margherita was a bit sour to my taste because of the tomato pure. The dough was thin and crunchy though! The place was also crowded when we came for breakfast. Eggs Benedict were great, something you want to try again. Kikliko was good, better than what I tried in other places in Tbilisi. Ricotta hot cake was definitely not what I expected - it's just pancakes with banana and not a cake at all. Coffee was not so great - especially the iced coffee. They have interesting way to serve hot chocolate - it's really something like warn chocolate pure which you eat with a spoon - it's not a drink. Their home made lemonades are tasty but the taste is not very rich so the price/quality is average. I'd recommend this place for a descent meal but certainly not a special occasion

English version: Finally, I had the pleasure of visiting “Lolita” for lunch!🥳🥳 5th place out of 7 from my list. Review: 16/35😔 Objectively: 1) Answering with the introduction of place, employee name, and correct text (1/3 points) 2) Polite and helpful (1/1 point) 3) Confirmation or not confirmation of reservation (1/1 point) 4) Greet and escort to the table (0/1 point) 5) Menu was delivered in 2 minutes (1/1 point) 6) Menu is clean and proper (0/1 point) 7) Ask for the aperitif before the meal (0/1 point) 8) Taking order at a time (1/1 point) 9) Suggestions and upselling (0/2 points) 10) Ask about the consequences of dishes (0/1 point) 11) Double-check the order (0/1 point) 12) Special table set-up depending on the dishes (if needed) (1/1 point) 13) The food was delivered on time, presentable, hot/cold as it has to be (2/3 points) 14) Feedback (0/1 point) 15) If the order was served as per guest request (0/1 point) 16) Paying attention during the whole dinner period (1/2 points) 17) Bill was delivered in 2 minutes (1/1 point) 18) Farewell the guest in a proper manner (0/2 points) 19) Staff grooming (2/3 points) 20) Staff attitude and behavior (1/2 points) 21) Staff professionalism (2/3 points) 22) Overall atmosphere (1/2 points) Here's the translation: 1. Cannot reach the hostess: No response from any of the three calls within an hour; 2. The menu was dirty; pages were torn and greasy. (What happened?); 3. I couldn’t cut the dessert because it was super dry; 4. The stuff gathering was everywhere; 6. There was no hot water in the WC; In summary, I want to express both positive and negative aspects: ✅ The ambiance is very nice with cheerful music and friendly staff. ❌ I ordered a coffee, dessert, and a cocktail together, but first, they brought the coffee and after 10 minutes - the dessert. The main course was served at time. Cocktail came only after the main course was finished. The dessert was delicious, but still couldn't cut.

Definitely not recommend. Worst service ever. Manager refused to host 3 people. Lost order. No sorry from stuff. —————— The place is all about being arrogant and contemptuous. “Security” at the entrance is rude and look down on you. There were 3 of us and our friend was already waiting inside. When we came no one welcomed us and no one gave us menu. We took a random table inside and moved extra chair ourselves. And straight away a waiter came up to us and said that we cannot move chairs. We asked why because it sounded weird as all other tables were free and we did not cause any inconvenience to other visitors and the waiter said it was due to the restaurant policy. In return we asked a table for three and he said that this is impossible and the only way is to sit double at the couch for one. We asked to speak with the manager and the woman was absolutely not friendly and basically repeated same words that this is the restaurant policy and they cannot help us and if we are not comfortable we are free to go. The absurd thing is that there was a stray dog lying on the couch of nearby table and when I asked the manager if it’s okay that you refuse to comfort guests when literally the whole table is busy by a stray dog - she said that it is fine because they are dog friendly. We were quite shocked by the answer and still somewhy decided to stay and when it was 40 minutes after we ordered, we asked about the status of our order and it appears that they simply “lost” it. And they even didn’t say sorry for that. We asked for the bill (for the cocktail) which they brought immediately. We paid and left. And no one even said that they are sorry for the situation. The dog is nice tho

Lolita is a great place where you can go with your friends or colleagues and have a great time. Lolita gives you different kinds of experiences, you can sit next to the kitchen or bar and watch how they make your order, it feels like you are in the process of cookig and it's so funny, also you can sit outdoor and have some wind blowing,while watching beautiful decorate trees and plants that kinda gives you jungle vibes and is so refreshing and relaxing.The design of the Cafe is so minimal and vintage. Vintage utensils, decorations are everything you need to be comfortable and familiar with the place. Stuff is great. They are very attentive, nice and have a great attitude with visitors. Every minute they make sure that you have everything you need and they are always ready to serve you. Also orders didn't take too long to get ready. Food was great too. Cafe was little bit crowded and noisy. Overall, Lolita is a very nice place, with great stuff, delicious food and cleanliness. Cafe gives you Old Tbilisi and European vibes and is very organic to the city. So if you are in Tbilisi and looking for some vintage place, with delicious foods and drinks, to have an interesting time with your friends or alone, Lolita is for you. Enjoy!

The first night we went the place was so packed we couldn't get in. But we didn't give up and next day we made it. Definitely was a great choice, the live cooking- casual style, open air and vibrant ambience is an amazing combination for dinner and cocktails. The guy behind the bar was pretty busy and in the beginning I had the impression that cocktails will be rushed and unbalanced but i was wrong. They were perfect, flavor profile was tasteful as well as the presentation. One of the bartenders, Androv or Andrei (not sure of how to spell his name) was kind enough to give me a taste of Georgian Gin, which was very interesting. Food was awesome like always in Georgia. Only the fish and chips were kinda mid. The pizza with sun-dried tomatoes was top notch. Georgians know how to make a dough, no doubt. And one thing about service. There is decent service in Tbilisi once you talk to the staff, they are shy most of the time but as soon as you talk to them they open up and are very friendly. Thank you very much. I'd love to go back
