We came here during Sunday lunch hours to meet up with some amazing Yelp friends. There were parking spots right in front and around the store. They had a cozy small dining space with few tables and booths to dine-in. The interior of the restaurant was so nice, with the beautiful art and paintings on the wall. We started with soft and fluffy Shoti bread. We got to order a bunch of things from the menu. Shish Kabab, chicken/lamb dumplings and Tabaka (small fried chicken) were decent dishes. Chanakhi (lamb stew) was a best dish to be, had amazing flavor and stew was delicious. Adjaruli was the iconic Georgian dish on the table, filled with enormous amount of cheese, mixed with poached egg. Our server was super friendly. All our dishes kept coming out within small interval. The prices of the items were so cheap, we were surprised to see the total of the check. Overall it was a wonderful dining experience at Shoti.

Georgian cuisine in the area. This is my first trying Georgian food. Overall a solid spot for good meals. We went in as a big group. The waitress was efficient and helpful. Informed us regarding the ingredients while bringing the dishes out due to some of us have diet restrictions. The cuisine has a lot of cheese based dishes, soft bread, grilled meat and stew. All are flavorful and big portions. Dumplings dough is a little thick for me. I highly recommend to go with a big group so you can try different things.

Nestled at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, the country of Georgia is a land rich in history, culture, and gastronomy, showcasing the bounty of the region's agricultural landscapes. Georgian cuisine has been attracting increased attention among chefs and food enthusiasts in the U.S. for a few years. Unfortunately, the number of truly authentic establishments is small, found mostly in larger cities that are home to sizable numbers of the Eastern European and Russian diaspora. Located on River Road in Fair Lawn, my partner, some of our Yelp friends, and I were lucky to have this hidden gem so close to home without going into Gotham and decided on lunch today. A reservation was easily made via Google Assistant. Labelled after shotis puri, the name of a traditional Georgian bread baked in a clay oven similar to a tandoor, we were greeted upon entering as first-timers at Shoti Bread House. With a cozy, casual, and welcoming vibe, we were seated immediately by the window. Their menu features a variety of traditional dishes like Khachapuri, Lobiani, and Kubdari. The star of the show is the Adjaruli, a boat-shaped bread filled with gooey cheese, butter, and a poached egg, grilled to perfection. We opted for family style and decided on Meguli (pizza), Adjaruli (boat-shaped cheese bread), Khinkali (chicken and lamb dumplings), Tabaka (roast chicken), Chicken Shish Kebab, and Chakapuli (lamb stew). Our meal started out with the Shoti. Every dish was fresh, full of authentic flavor, and made with care for authentic food. The portion was healthy, which didn’t leave room for dessert, and the prices were surprisingly affordable. Friendly staff made the experience even better, especially our server, Taylor. We look forward to going back soon!

I first went to this Georgian restaurant on the third day of July in honor of Belarusian Independence Day. I drove from home to Fair Lawn that day, and that day was my first time going to Fair Lawn. Additionally, this was my first time trying Georgian cuisine. I loved the food I ate: the blinchiki, the Ajapsandali (the Georgian ratatouille), and the Penovani Lobiani, which was a puff pastry with red bean paste. Then, after I finished my meal, I ordered Georgian dumplings, which were delicious. I would love to dine in this eatery again one day.

First time eating Georgian food; it was amazing! The restaurant is cute and quaint, and comfortable. Our waiter was super friendly, and helpful when it came to the menu. We ordered the Kubdari (meat pie), soup dumplings, and cheesy boat bread, along with the house cake and Bird’s milk cake for dessert. The portions were huge and reasonably priced. Everything was delicious and definitely tasted homemade. Super satisfying, and we left super full :) We are fans, we will be back!
