"El Depo has a tall claim – of having the best Khinkali and Lobio in all of Georgia. Yes, it is open 24 hours – just in case you get that craving for one juicy dumpling!"

"A fairly modest place with around 10 wood-boothed tables, Pasanauri is frequently packed thanks to its khinkali, which are among the best in town. Top choice is the meaty 'Pasanauri special', but there are vegetable khinkali too."

"Where to eat in Tbilisi: Sofia Melnikova's Fantastic Douqan - Quite possibly the Georgian capital's most hard to find restaurant (you'll find it through the yellow door into the courtyard of the State Museum of Literature), Sofia Melnikova's khinkali are handmade to order in the style of the northern mountainous region of Khevsureti."

"The brick walls and track lighting at this popular branch create a bright and airy space, and the cooking displays a refreshing contemporary sensibility, with the always luscious hinkali (large dumplings you eat with your hands) available with salmon or pumpkin in addition to the traditional ground beef."
