Restaurant & Lounge — Bar at Pool Cafe, Tbilisi

In short

Restaurant & Lounge is one of three dining venues at Ambassadori Kachreti, a golf resort hotel in the village of Kachreti, Gurjaani Municipality, in Georgia’s Kakheti wine region. The hotel describes it as a new, loft-style lounge that opened in September, intended as a venue for events and entertainment alongside regular dining. It sits within a larger resort complex that also includes a Banquet Hall and a Pool Cafe, plus rooms, villas, a golf course, a spa and a range of outdoor activities.

The concept, the chef and the room

According to the hotel, Restaurant & Lounge was fitted out in a loft style and opened to guests in September. Beyond that description, the official page does not go into detail about the interior, seating capacity, or design inspiration, so visitors should expect the kind of open-plan, industrial-leaning look that “loft style” generally implies — exposed surfaces, open sightlines and a more relaxed, bar-and-lounge feel than a formal dining room — rather than a traditional Georgian supra hall.

The hotel says it plans “many events and entertaining activities” in this space and invites guests to join at any time, which suggests the venue is used flexibly: part restaurant, part evening lounge, and part events space, rather than a single-purpose dining room with fixed seatings. No chef, culinary director or kitchen team is named on the official page, and no cuisine style (Georgian, international, fusion) is specified for this particular venue, unlike some hotel restaurants that spell out their concept in detail.

Restaurant & Lounge is one of three named food and drink outlets at the Kachreti property. The Banquet Hall is the resort’s dedicated space for larger, formal gatherings such as weddings and conferences, and the Pool Cafe serves the outdoor pool area with lighter, informal food and drink. Restaurant & Lounge sits between the two, functioning as the resort’s more flexible, loft-style indoor venue for both everyday dining and organised events.

Because Ambassadori Kachreti is built around a golf course and a wider leisure offer — including a shooting range, stadiums, horse riding, bowling and an art gallery, plus spa, gym and both outdoor and indoor swimming pools — Restaurant & Lounge should be understood as part of a self-contained resort ecosystem rather than a standalone destination restaurant that travellers would seek out on its own in the village of Kachreti.

What to order

• Specific dishes — not published. The hotel’s official page for Restaurant & Lounge does not list individual menu items, set menus, or signature dishes, so no named recommendations can be given from the source material.
• Drinks list — not published. No cocktails, wines or other specific drinks are named for this venue on the official site, despite the “Lounge” branding suggesting a bar component.
• Local wine, in general terms. Kachreti lies in Kakheti, Georgia’s principal wine-producing region, home to appellations such as Tsinandali and Napareuli nearby. While the hotel does not publish a wine list for Restaurant & Lounge specifically, travellers in this part of the country can reasonably expect Kakhetian wines to feature somewhere on the resort’s drinks offer, and it is worth asking staff directly.

Readers should treat the above as a note on what is and is not confirmed, rather than a menu. Anyone planning a visit who wants to know exactly what is being served should contact the resort directly before travelling, since the website gives no further detail.

Menus, hours and prices

The official page for Restaurant & Lounge does not state opening hours, a price range, or whether the venue operates on an à la carte, buffet or set-menu basis. No seasonal variation or booking windows for events are mentioned either. Given the venue’s stated role in hosting “many events and entertaining activities,” its schedule may vary according to what is taking place at the resort on a given night, which is another reason to check directly rather than assume fixed hours.

Reservations and practical details

No dedicated reservation line or online booking form is given for Restaurant & Lounge itself. General enquiries for the Kachreti property go through the resort’s own contact channels:

• Ambassadori Kachreti Golf Resort — phone: (+995 32) 2 18 06 06
• Email: kachreti@ambassadori.com

The wider Ambassadori hotel group also lists a general number, 032 2 43 94 94, and a general email, info@ambassadori.com, for enquiries across its properties, which include Ambassadori Tbilisi and the Goderdzi Golf Club in addition to Kachreti. Guests booking a stay or a table are advised to specify that they mean the Kachreti resort and the Restaurant & Lounge venue, given the group operates several similarly named restaurants across its hotels.

Location and getting there

Restaurant & Lounge is located within the Ambassadori Kachreti resort in the village of Kachreti, Gurjaani Municipality, in the Kakheti region of eastern Georgia. Kakheti is Georgia’s best-known wine region, stretching east of Tbilisi along the Alazani valley, and Gurjaani Municipality sits among its vineyard towns, not far from Telavi, Tsinandali and Gurjaani town itself. The resort’s golf course, villas and leisure facilities are set in this rural, vineyard-dotted landscape rather than in a town centre.

Kakheti is typically reached from Tbilisi by road, a drive that generally takes a little under two hours depending on the exact route and traffic, making the resort a feasible day trip from the capital as well as a stay-over destination for golf, wine touring or events. The hotel’s official pages do not give turn-by-turn directions or a precise GPS pin for Restaurant & Lounge, so travellers driving from Tbilisi or arranging a transfer should confirm the exact address and route with the resort when booking.
