Loved the food, drinks, and service. We started with the sampler and lamb stuffed grape leaves. The sampler platter was delicious. Loved all the different flavors and especially loved the cheese. The bread was great as well. The stuffed grape leaves were so good and the cream it came with was also delicious. The cheese and egg bread boat was so good and surprisingly not too heavy. We ordered the half chicken and the cauliflower to share among 4 people. This was enough food for 4 people. The chicken was cooked perfectly. I loved the sauce. The cauliflower with the grits and flavorful sauce was also good. Grits were kind of stuck together though. For dessert we had the grape pudding and honey cake. The grape pudding was really good. Loved the texture. Flavor had some kind of spice mixed in which was very interesting. I think it was cinnamon. The honey cake had a nice texture and wasn't too sweet. For drinks I had a glass of the red natural wine and also had the spicy margarita. The margarita was made with grappa instead of tequila. It was really interesting and not what I expected at all. The natural red was very nice. Our server was very nice and friendly would definitely recommend this restaurant!

Delicious cuisine typically found in southern Brooklyn in a gorgeous south Brooklyn setting. So many great Georgian restaurants in Brighton Beach, Sheepshead Bay, and Bath Beach. Chama Mama combines the stand out food you'd find in those areas with the upscale atmosphere expected in Brooklyn Heights.I started with a glass of house wine and my wife had one of their specialty cocktails. The wine was ultra dry. It had a super dark hue. It was a generous pour that lasted the whole dinner.Our first course was the Georgian salad. Thick cut cucumbers and tomatoes with cilantro, pomegranate seeds, and a generous amount of sunflower oil and vinegar. It reminded of the salads that my grandfather makes. A very comfy salad for me.Next came out the khinkali filled with beef and pork as well as the adjaruli khachapuri. Khinkali were huge, stuffed dumplings. Very doughy with a soupy and savory filling. Classic execution. The khachapuri was excellent too. Smaller bread bowl with plenty of cheese and butter giving it the highest cheese to bread ratio that I've encountered for a khachapuri. I liked the smaller portion as I didn't feel exhausted and stuffed as I usually do after adjaruli khachapuri. For the main course, we shared the roasted half chicken in shqmeruli. This might have been one of the best chicken dishes that I've had. Chicken was juicy with a crispy and wonderfully seasoned skin. The sauce was outstanding. It was a creamy garlic sauce that would go toe-to-toe with the best Alfredo or butter garlic sauces in the world. I highly recommended this dish and did not expect it to be the star.Service was attentive. There were two single occupancy restrooms. The one I used was spacious and handicap accessible. No reservation was needed on a weeknight.

This place is so good!! Everything on the menu is super tasty and fun to try. I recommend ordering the Taste of Georgia sampler platter because all of them were different and delicious. Definitely get the cheesy bread. The beef stew is good but if you're not necessarily in the mood for it, I may recommend skipping it.Service is impeccable and the ambiance is fun, trendy and lively. I'd recommend making reservations because it was pretty busy on a weeknight.

Great brunch spot! The dishes are meant to be shared so I would recommend tapas style. I loved the pancakes and egg benedicts and the bread was so fluffy.

I was disappointed in the food of Chama mama but the ambience is niceFood: the seasonal katchpuri a bit disappointing! It was essentially a pizza with some herbs on top - this didn't have much flavor to it. I should have gone for the adjaruli katchpuri. The lamb khinkali was probably the best thing we got but I wish they gave 1 more within the miz. The matchkatebi was good overall but very small portion size! Ambience: really nice, open and welcomingService: good but a bit slow! Price: a bit high for the portion size in my opinion

The restaurant was festively decorated for the holidays and quite busy when we went. The server apologized for not being as attentive as a result. It was hard to gauge what was gluten-free and I had to verify -- though having the menus updated to show this would've been helpful. We had adjapsandali (cold veggie spread would have been perfect in summer), saperavi & pomegranate beef stew (interesting mashed potatoes had cheese), chicken mtsvadi (the garnish was good the chicken meh), crispy potato with house tkemali (good!), Georgian style freshly baked cornbread (not my favorite), ghognasho adjika (okay), and my husband loved the baked bread.

Sitting outside here is absolutely wonderful in the summer, spring and fall. Great people watching. Every single thing on the menu is amazing! If you haven't tried Georgian food... it's time and if you start here you are starting with some of the best. My top favorites are the Georgian salad, ADJARULI KHACHAPURI, and KHINKALI.The service was okay. Nothing mind blowing ... I sat down before another table and they got served first which tends to annoy me but honestly the food was so good I almost forgot about that.
