Republic Restaurant & Terrace — Gastronomy in Tbilisi, Georgia

In short

Republic Restaurant & Terrace occupies part of a four-level building called Republic, on First Republic Square (also referred to by the operator as Rose Revolution Square) in central Tbilisi. According to the official website, the building houses three venues: an event hall on the two middle floors, a ground-floor dinery called Republic 24, and Republic Restaurant with its rooftop terrace. The terrace sits directly across from the Radisson Blu Iveria and is described by the operator as an open-air space for evenings, gatherings and celebrations, with panoramic views over the city.

The concept, the chef and the room

Republic is presented by its operator, Silk Hospitality, as a “state-of-the-art multifunctional building” positioned as “an elegant addition to the historical center” of Tbilisi. The site does not go into the architectural history of the structure in detail, but it does describe the building’s layout: four levels in total, with Republic Event Hall taking up the two middle floors, and the restaurants bookending it. Republic 24, described as a “Georgian modern Dinery,” sits inside what the website calls an “ultra-modern glass box,” with street-facing views toward the Radisson Blu Iveria. Republic Restaurant & Terrace is the rooftop counterpart, reached from the same building, and is the subject of this profile.

The website does not name a head chef, a design firm, or give a date of opening for the restaurant, so none of that is repeated here. What it does say is that the terrace is meant to work for a range of occasions, from “relaxed evenings” to “lively gatherings” and “memorable celebrations,” and that the view takes in Tbilisi’s skyline. The square itself, historically known as Republic Square in the Soviet period and later renamed Rose Revolution Square after the events of 2003, sits in one of the most central parts of the city, directly opposite the Radisson Blu Iveria — itself a well-known Tbilisi landmark, originally built as the Hotel Iveria and later redeveloped into the current Radisson property. Republic’s position on this square places it within easy reach of Rustaveli Avenue and the wider government and business district of Tbilisi.

What to order

The official website does not publish a menu or list specific dishes and drinks for Republic Restaurant & Terrace, so no individual items can be named here. What the site does set out is the general character of the venue, which is summarised below.

• Evening drinks on the terrace — the website describes the open-air terrace as the setting for “relaxed evenings,” suggesting a drinks and cocktail-led offering, though no specific drinks list is published.
• Shared or celebratory dining — the site frames the space as suited to “lively gatherings” and “memorable celebrations,” pointing to a format built around groups rather than solo dining, though no menu detail is given.
• Catering-style events — Republic’s catering page states the group handles “a reception, birthday party, a corporate event, or a seated dinner,” which implies the restaurant’s kitchen can support set menus for private occasions, again without naming specific dishes.

Travellers who want to know exactly what is on the plate or in the glass should contact the restaurant directly or check its current menu through the booking channels listed below, since this is not something the official website sets out in text.

Menus, hours and prices

The official website does not publish opening hours, a printed menu or price ranges for Republic Restaurant & Terrace. Nothing in the source material indicates seasonal hours, a dress code, or a minimum spend. Anyone planning a visit should treat the restaurant’s own booking channel or direct contact as the only reliable source for current hours and pricing, rather than assuming anything from general Tbilisi dining norms.

Reservations and practical details

The website carries a “Book now” link for Republic Restaurant & Terrace, indicating that advance reservation is possible and, by implication, advisable for an open-air venue described as a setting for gatherings and celebrations. General contact details given for the Republic building are a phone number, +995 591 08 71 72, and an email address, sales@silkhospitality.com, both run under the umbrella of Silk Hospitality rather than the restaurant alone. The group also operates a loyalty programme called Silk Rewards, described as “the first Georgian loyalty application in the hospitality industry,” which lets guests earn points on payments and redeem them at any Silk Hospitality venue, including, presumably, Republic Restaurant & Terrace. The app can be downloaded via a link on the main site.

Location and getting there

Republic Restaurant & Terrace is at 6, First Republic Square (listed elsewhere on the operator’s site as 6, Rose Revolution Square), 0108 Tbilisi. This square sits in the heart of the city, within walking distance of Rustaveli Avenue, Tbilisi’s main thoroughfare of theatres, museums and government buildings, and close to Freedom Square. The site’s own description places the terrace “just across from the Radisson Blu Iveria,” a large hotel tower that is one of the more recognisable buildings on the Tbilisi skyline and a useful landmark for anyone navigating on foot. Visitors arriving by metro would typically use Rustaveli or Freedom Square stations, both a short walk from the square, though the website itself does not give transit directions and this is general orientation rather than an official instruction.
