Maisi Restaurant
მაისი
A small, refined restaurant at the trailhead in Gergeti village, with an open kitchen serving seasonal mountain dishes. It is considered the best place to eat in Kazbegi.
Located beside the hiking trailhead for Gergeti Trinity Church, this restaurant is run by the team behind Kazbegi Cabins. It has only about a dozen seats, an open kitchen and a small terrace. The seasonal menu uses local ingredients and reinterprets Kazbegi mountain cooking with modern techniques, such as young potatoes and croutons in a cheese and herb broth, or tomato with tempura caper flowers. The breakfast French toast and zucchini fritters are also popular. Seats are very limited, so book well in advance. Closed on Wednesdays. About 50–80 lari per person.
Opening hours
Thu–Tue 9:00–13:00 and 17:00–22:00, closed Wed
