I ordered takeout after finding this place online? The food looks amazing and I thought my lamb dish with potatoes, eggplant, and bell peppers was very good. But for how expensive this place it is not worth the prices they are charging. In total I received two tiny tiny lamb chops, which after weighing both of them they weighed less than 60 grams with bones in both (look at the pictures I posted). I also order some bean and bread item, but in my opinion it was not worth $18 for refried black bean in fresh bread with four tiny Greek peppers. If you do it have a budget, this place is great. But if you re like 90% of the people in the US, this place is way over priced for what little you receive. - Michael Putek

What is Worth Choosing Badageoni

Choosing Badageoni goes beyond simply selecting a place to eat; it is an immersion into a unique and welcoming culinary experience right in the New York region. For local users in New York and surrounding areas, Badageoni offers several compelling reasons to visit.

Firstly, the distinct cuisine is a major draw. Georgian food, known for its rich spices, unique bread varieties, and savory dumplings, is a less common offering in the U.S. dining landscape. Badageoni provides an authentic gateway to this delicious corner of the world. Patrons can enjoy substantial, flavorful comfort food like Lobio, Tolma, and Signature Strews, or sample delightful Cold Plates such as Adjapsandali and various Pkhali preparations. The extensive Khachapuri menu is a highlight, offering numerous ways to experience this beloved national dish, from the boat-shaped Adjaruli to the layered Penovani.

Secondly, its dual identity as a high-quality wine bar and restaurant is a significant selling point. The great wine list, paired with an excellent selection of cocktails, positions Badageoni as the perfect spot for date nights, professional gatherings, or simply unwinding after a long day. The bar onsite amenity and focus on small plates make it ideal for those who prefer to graze and savor fine beverages. The recognition for "Great wine list" directly speaks to the quality and care put into their selection, which is critical for any true wine bar.

Finally, the welcoming environment, fast service, and commitment to inclusivity solidify its position as a top choice. The casual, cozy atmosphere ensures that guests feel comfortable, whether they are enjoying a solo dining experience (for which it is popular), a family meal, or a group gathering. The fact that dinner reservations are recommended suggests its high demand and popularity within the area. By choosing Badageoni, you are supporting a women-owned business that is dedicated to fast service, accessibility, and a fantastic, unique culinary and beverage experience right outside of NYC. It is a must-try for anyone looking to expand their dining horizons with authentic, high-quality Eastern European and Georgian cuisine paired with a thoughtfully curated wine selection.
