The Ubani Experience
Our Mission and Story

Our mission at Ubani is to share the warmth and richness of Georgian hospitality with New York City. We believe that Georgian cuisine is one of the world's best-kept secrets, defined by its incredible balance of savory, spicy, and nutty profiles. Our restaurant is designed to be a haven of comfort, where we honor the ancient techniques of our ancestors while bringing a fresh, modern perspective to dishes that have been loved for generations.


Culinary Craftsmanship

The kitchen at Ubani is a tribute to the art of Georgian cooking:




Artisanal Khachapuri: We take immense pride in our dough. Our Khachapuri (cheesy bread) is handmade to order, ensuring the perfect balance of gooey, rich cheese and a golden, crusty exterior.




Hand-Folded Khinkali: These signature Georgian dumplings are crafted with care, featuring perfectly spiced meat or vegetable fillings wrapped in delicate, thin dough.




Fresh, Local Ingredients: We source the finest seasonal produce to ensure our salads, walnuts-based sauces (pkhali), and fresh herbs taste exactly as they would in the mountains of Georgia.




Traditional Flavors: From our slow-simmered stews to our vibrant, spiced meat preparations, every dish is an invitation to explore the complexity of our cuisine.

The waiter rushed us out because apparently there was a reservation after us... There were 4 of us and we ordered quite a bit of food including dessert. Food was pretty good, but the service needs a lot of work. Disappointed - given the legendary Georgian hospitality.

I almost went to another Georgian restaurant and then found this. Absolutely delicious food and extremely friendly staff. I questioned for a moment if I was even in NYC.

The best Gerogian food I’ve had in the city. The food is authentic and extremely fresh, delicious. The vibes and music are a great add to it. I would eat here for every meal if I could

Service and seating were really nice. The food didn’t hit for me. The salad had too much cilantro (my fault for not mentioning but also, wish they asked for preferences). The Georgian bread was good, but didn’t KNOCK my socks off. Was very rich too. The eggplant rolls weren’t for me - bit of a weird savoury / sweet dynamic.

Such a cozy and welcoming spot. This was our second time coming back and definitely not the last. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious — fresh ingredients, beautiful flavors, and food made with care. The atmosphere feels warm and almost family-like, which makes the whole experience even better.

The natural wines are also a must try. Service was lovely, welcoming, and genuinely kind. Highly recommend this place if you want amazing food and a cozy atmosphere.

Everything we ate was worth it
The Khachapuri is pure happiness- you could order the classic or any of the special versions. No wrong choices.
The Mhkali Trio made for a great appetizer with the cornbread, & the Beef & Pork Khinkali Dumplings are a 10!

Wow! I was so pleased by everything here. I never eat vegetarian but the cheese beans bread and pickles left me feeling like I wasn’t missing a thing. My advice - stir in pickled stuff with the cheese to get that perfect mix. Food coma - better walk it off. Thanks Ubani!

The food was OK, but these were the khinkali with the smallest amount of meat I have ever had.... asked the server if that is the standard and he said that indeed it was.. disappointing

Khachapuri and khinkali are good , Gorgonzola cheesecake is fine
Honey cake was a big disappointment - cream is overly heavy and greasy but at the same time the cake itself is super dry

Upon entry we were told we only had 90 minutes to complete our meal. That's not how a hospitality business should be run.

And during the meal the staff allowed child candy sellers to enter and go table to table...TWICE! Not what I look for in a dining experience.

The cheeseboat was quite tasty!
