Since 1927

Our story

Violet was born in Soho in 1927 and never left. Known locally as the "Queen of Soho", she danced with American officers at the Astoria during the war and never said no to a late-night salt beef sandwich. Violet's was created with her to keep that old-school Soho spirit alive.

"When you live in Soho, whatever you hear, whatever you see, zip it!"Violet's number one rule

"Every guest is a gift from God."As we say in Georgia

Today the name and the spirit are the same, but the kitchen is Georgian: freshly baked khachapuri, handmade khinkali and generous dishes for sharing, served with real Georgian hospitality.
