Per-allergen evidence

Vegetarian

confidence 70% ·

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

The online menu marks many items as V (vegetarian), including salads, soups, and vegetable dishes. A separate vegan menu section also covers vegetarian needs. The kitchen is shared, but the clear menu labelling makes vegetarian ordering straightforward.

marked menu

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 60% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

Saperavi offers some gluten-free items (khinkali, khachapuri, cornbread) marked GF on the menu, and a 2019 review praised staff awareness and cross-contamination care. However, a 2024 review reports a serious incident where a gluten-containing dish was served instead of the gluten-free version ordered, and the mistake was only disclosed after most was eaten. The kitchen is shared with gluten-containing dishes, and no dedicated equipment or prep area is confirmed. Call ahead and verify current practices before visiting.

Honest caveat: A 2024 TripAdvisor review reports the venue served a gluten-containing dish to a customer who ordered gluten-free, only informing them after most was eaten.

Nut-free

confidence 70% ·

Not recommended, Documented unsafe for this allergen: refuses to accommodate, multiple bad reports, or a documented incident. Surfaced as a warning rather than a recommendation.

The official menu lists multiple dishes containing walnuts (e.g., eggplant with walnut sauce, assorted pkhali with walnut, walnut jam) and almond-crusted suluguni. There is no nut-free menu section, no dedicated preparation area, and no allergen disclaimer. The kitchen is shared, and cross-contamination risk is high. Not recommended for those with nut allergies.
