    About Chama Mama:

    Chama mama is a collection of cozy family restaurants that pays tribute to the Georgian culture and way of life. Our menu is reflective of the diverse influences that have shaped the Georgian nation and is informed by the home-made traditions of an authentically artisanal culture. We proudly subscribe to that most quintessential Georgian proverb: "a guest is a gift from God" and view hospitality as a vocation - not as an industry. We aim to surprise and delight, to connect and enlighten. After all, it's the Georgian way.
