We really liked the view there so we'd decited to come over for a café and a salad. We'd ordered eggolant salad - why some weird kind of spread cheese and some sweet and sour tao tao dip was in it idk, but... We had...really bad stomach experience after this visit. Also thé service is not so nice. My friend had ordered adjika dip that she has never gotten and when she had mention about it while paying the cashier was like 'but it' s not even on your bill so no problem'. No sorry, nothing. We had to wait for a really long time to receive for our receipe, so finally we just went to the cashier to pay, because our weither just forgot about us. So if you want to waste your evening and night, and spend this whole time in toilet then I'm strongly recomend you this place... 🙄More

At first we thought it'd be a pretty touristy joint because it's right on the river but it had a really warm, homey feel to it. It was at night and cold so the garden was closed. We sat inside and ordered enough for an...army. The staff were all super attentive and kind. We ended up making friends with the bartender who was an awesome guy. Food was simple, Georgian style and satisfying. Think there was a delicious veggie stew thing. They also let us put our own music on. Would recommend it!More

Gardenia is one of the best place of Kutaisi. The view on the river is incredible. The place is pleasant and green. The staff is really nice and you can eat and drink good georgian food and beer.
