We came on a packed Saturday night, but Adelina handled everything with grace. She was polite, friendly, and made us feel truly welcome. Her attitude added so much warmth to the restaurant’s atmosphere. Servers like her make you want to come back

Yan V.

We had an amazing experience at the restaurant! The meat was incredibly juicy and tender — it just melted in our mouths. The khachapuri was absolutely delicious, with perfect dough and rich flavor. A special thanks to our server Anastasia — she was so attentive, caring, and friendly. She made the evening even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Tetiana

Excellent drinks. Can’t comment about the food. We stopped by to relax before going to a dinner nearby after a funeral. We needed a short break and were welcomed to sit at the bar where we got a first hand view to watch happened behind the bar. We enjoyed two hand crafted cocktails created just for us. Eric was personable and impressively professional and invited us to return for what he promised was excellent food. It’s on our list.

Sardor A.

We really enjoyed this place! My husband and I ordered Uzbek-style plov and Adjarian khachapuri — everything was incredibly delicious. The restaurant is clean, cozy, and has a pleasant atmosphere. Our waiter, Michael, was very friendly and attentive, and it was great to see that the staff speaks several languages. We’re very happy with our experience and will definitely come back!

Liubov P.

We have been to Kara's a few times and there is a reason why we keep coming back...it's amazing! Their chicken kabob is perfection, juicy and not dried out with plenty of flavor. In general Kara's have large portions so it makes the meal worth it. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is great. I would recommend checking Kara's Dine-in out if you've never been and ill definitely be back.
