Kartuli is a restaurant and wine shop presenting the best authentic Georgian cuisine and wines in one of the most beautiful and historic buildings of East Dulwich, the David Grieg premises at 65 Lordship Lane.
Kartuli, which simply means Georgian, was founded by friends from Georgia who have known each other since their university days. Their aim is simple: to demonstrate the world-renowned Georgian tradition of hospitality through the production of beautifully cooked and presented classic Georgian dishes that might be found at any Georgian feast or, cooked with love, in any Georgian home. By bringing an authentic slice of Georgian culture to South East London there is an underlying desire to promote awareness not only of the wonderful food and wines of Georgia, but also its traditions, stunning landscapes and its ancient history and mythology. Everyone here at Kartuli respects and observes the Georgian philosophy that "a visitor is a gift from God".
