Georgia’s western region, Adjara, is home to many summer destination spots. However, Batumi is more developed than others. Thus the dining scene offers far more options than any other town in the area. If you’re interested in learning where to eat in Batumi, read this comprehensive guide to some of the best restaurants in the city.

Laguna

The Adjara region is home to one of the varieties of Khachapuri or pizza-like cheese pie. Adjaruli Khachapuri is different in shape and presentation from the typical pizza. You can eat Adjaruli Khachapuri almost everywhere in Batumi, but Laguna has the best recipe and technique. Laguna makes Kachapuri with more cheese and less dough, which makes it seem less fatty. The venue offers small, medium, and large sizes.

Retro

Retro is another excellent place to find the most delicious Adjaruli Khachapuri. Similar to other venues, Retro offers the cheesy dough in different sizes, but take note that the small size might be enough for two if you are not used to eating heavy meals.

Grill Town

It’s evident that Grill Town focuses on grilled meals; however, the menu is quite diverse and offers pasta, pizza, and Georgian delicacies as well. If you’d like to have a stylish dinner and enjoy delicious food, then Grill Town should be on the top of your list.

Heart of Batumi

Heart of Batumi offers something truly unique: its atmosphere encapsulates the city’s incredible culture through traditional meals accented with international twists. Being a guest here feels like being part of a big family. Lose yourself on a culinary exploration of the best communities in Batumi with Heart of Batumi’s extensive selection of dishes.

Ukrainochka

Ukrainochka is another trendy restaurant popular among locals. It serves mainly Ukrainian, Slavic, and Georgian cuisine (among other international recipes), and has an excellent choice of fish and meat specialties. You can also try the world-famous Ukrainian soup Borscht or their tasty dumplings.

Clouds Restaurant and Bar

If you fancy an elegant dinner, then Clouds Restaurant and Bar in the Radisson Blu Batumi Hotel will do nicely. The choice of meals here are vast and concentrate on European cuisine. Sipping a glass of Georgian wine, eating delicious food, and enjoying breathtaking views of Batumi is what will make Clouds Restaurant and Bar live in your memory for years to come.

Spectrum Rooftop Restaurant

While we are feeling elegant and sophisticated, let’s stop by another restaurant with great views over the city. Spectrum Rooftop Restaurant offers both local and European cuisine, an excellent choice of cocktails, and beautiful atmosphere. It’s a winning restaurant to take friends and loved ones for a special night out.
