Restaurant in Tbilisi, Georgia
Eponymous Georgian Authorship

Chef Konstantin Tedeluri is a chef-driven address in Tbilisi suited to first-timers who want something more considered than a standard Georgian menu. Booking is easy relative to higher-demand Tbilisi venues. Visit in autumn for the strongest seasonal produce window, and let staff guide your order rather than relying on older reviews.
If you are visiting Tbilisi for the first time and want to eat at a restaurant built around a named chef's identity rather than a generic Georgian menu, Chef Konstantin Tedeluri at 5 Shalva Radiani St is the kind of address worth seeking out. This is a venue suited to diners who want something more considered than a traditional supra spread but are not yet ready to commit to the full tasting-menu formality you would find at a place like Le Bernardin in New York City. It sits in a city whose restaurant scene has shifted noticeably over the past several years, with a new wave of chef-led spaces pulling Georgian cooking away from folklore and toward technique.
Tbilisi's dining culture rewards patience and curiosity. Chef-driven restaurants here tend to work closer to a seasonal rotation model than to fixed menus — what you find on a visit in spring will differ meaningfully from a winter return. For a first-timer, that means you should not arrive with a specific dish in mind based on an old review. Instead, let the kitchen's current direction guide the meal. Georgian ingredients follow the seasons tightly: expect bolder, more preserved and fermented flavours in colder months, and a lighter, herb-forward approach as the year moves into spring and summer. If you are visiting between autumn and early winter, the kitchen is likely working with peak-season walnuts, pomegranate, and late harvest vegetables — the core of Georgian larder cooking at its most expressive.
The address places the restaurant within Tbilisi's inner city. For logistics, Tbilisi is compact enough that most central hotels put you within a short taxi or ride-share ride of Shalva Radiani St. If you are planning a wider Georgia trip, the restaurant scene in the capital is the natural starting point before exploring venues further afield such as Pheasant's Tears Winery in Signagi or Doli in Telavi. Our full Tbilisi restaurants guide gives broader context for planning across the city.
Tbilisi restaurants anchored to a chef's name tend to evolve their offerings around the Georgian agricultural calendar more than their counterparts running fixed tourist menus. The practical implication for you as a visitor: autumn (September through November) is when Georgian produce is at its most abundant and the kitchen has the widest palette to draw from. Spring is the second strong window, when fresh greens and early herbs shift the tone of the food considerably. Midsummer can be good, but Tbilisi in July and August also runs hot, and some smaller chef-led kitchens reduce their pace during peak tourist months.
For a broader sense of how Tbilisi's dining and drinking scene connects across seasons, the Tbilisi wineries guide and the bars guide are worth reading alongside your restaurant planning. Tbilisi's natural wine culture and its restaurant scene overlap significantly, and a meal at a chef-driven venue pairs well with an evening exploring the city's bar offering.
Booking difficulty at Chef Konstantin Tedeluri reads as easy relative to Tbilisi's more-booked addresses like Barbarestan, which operates on higher demand and requires more lead time. For most travel windows, a few days' notice should be sufficient, though weekend evenings and the peak autumn season may warrant booking earlier. No phone number or website is listed in available data, so the most reliable approach is to book through your hotel concierge or check for a current reservation link directly. Tbilisi hotels with active concierge services are generally well-connected to the city's chef-driven dining circuit. See our full Tbilisi hotels guide for properties with strong concierge support.
For first-timers eating across Tbilisi more broadly, venues like Alubali, Azarphesha, and ATI each offer a different entry point into the city's current dining range. Akura San is worth noting if you want to see how Tbilisi handles non-Georgian cuisine within the same chef-driven format. For context on the wider Georgia dining circuit, Sazandari in Batumi and Sisters in Kutaisi are among the addresses worth adding to a multi-city itinerary. Our Tbilisi experiences guide covers how to structure time in the city more broadly.
