During my recent visit to Gori, I had the pleasure of dining at Restaurant Erisoni, a place I wouldn’t have discovered if it weren’t for a friendly recommendation. The night before, while enjoying a cup of coffee at Georgia Hotel Gold, I struck up a conversation with David, my business partner. As we chatted about things to do in Gori, I asked for some tips on must-visit spots, and without hesitation, David insisted that I should check out Erisoni. He even provided me with precise navigation details, emphasizing that it was a place worth visiting.

Initially, dining at Erisoni wasn’t in our plans, but fate had other ideas. The next morning, as we attempted to get breakfast at the hotel, we realized it wasn’t an option. A quick Google search for breakfast spots in Gori brought up Erisoni once again. Remembering David’s strong recommendation, we decided to give it a try. A short 10-minute drive later, we found ourselves settling in at the restaurant, ready to explore its offerings.

The first thing that stood out was the pricing—reminiscent of Tbilisi’s restaurant scene from 6-7 years ago. The affordability, combined with the authentic taste of local cuisine, made it a delightful experience.

Erisoni captures the essence of Gori’s culinary traditions, and to my surprise, they even serve Ossetian Khachapuri, a rare find in many places.

For anyone visiting Gori, Restaurant Erisoni is a spot worth experiencing. Whether you’re looking for an affordable, delicious meal or simply wish to taste local flavors, this place delivers. If you find yourself in town, take a detour and give it a try—you won’t regret it! Our total bull about 110 GEL.
