Restaurants cuisine du monde Yerevan

In the luxurious setting of the Armenia Marriott Hotel, on the second floor, overlooking Republic Square, this elegant restaurant offers a wide variety of pasta and dishes whose authentic Italian style is guaranteed by the chef. In addition to peninsular specialities, the restaurant has added more international dishes to its menu. Sacrificing a well-established habit in the local restaurant business, two private lounges await guests who want even more privacy in the already hushed atmosphere of the room.

A very good address, again and again in the lively Opera district, for lovers of Western Armenian cuisine. The restaurateurs are more precisely Armenians from Syria, which broadens the palette of flavours to the whole Middle Eastern cuisine. The establishment has been in existence for some time, but it has retained all of its assets, despite competition from many restaurants offering similar cuisine, which were created shortly after the arrival of Armenians fleeing the civil war in Syria.

Located in the heart of Yerevan, near the Opera House, an address that local gourmets exchange and that has reached the ears and palaces of people from all over the world. They are mentioned at the entrance (including Gérard Depardieu, Alain Delon and Nicolas Sarkozy). This temple of dolma, declined on all leguminous modes, offers many other dishes. A refined family cuisine, authentically Armenian. Note that all the meat comes from open-air farms in Dilijan. Note the pleasant garden at the back, ideal in summer. But small budgets abstain.

Built behind a beautiful black stone façade of a building from the tsarist era on Abovian street, this restaurant, with a vast courtyard, is the latest addition to the Tsirani brand and is a credit to the other two establishments. The atmosphere is pleasant, the decor typical and authentic, as shown by the "tonir" at the entrance, as well as the wide range of culinary specialists, tastefully prepared and also served on the terrace with warmth, all at reasonable prices.

An establishment that opened its doors at the foot of the Cascade in 2012, in a trendy area of the capital. Here, French cuisine is guaranteed organic and prepared on demand, under the authority of a French chef. Everything is homemade, even the bread, and not in a tonir. The decoration and the atmosphere are resolutely Provençal, ensured by a pleasant summer terrace, where you will not fail to meet French speakers. A real good surprise to find this restaurant with Provençal flavours in the heart of Armenia!

Neither private nor confidential, this "Club" (which translates as agump in Armenian) is an address that has always been very popular in the Opera district and has not gone out of fashion. Interesting value for money with a varied and copious traditional Armenian cuisine, while the abundance of mezze or hors d'oeuvres, of which a vast choice is offered as an appetizer, nevertheless allows you to taste the other specialties, all in a pleasant setting. Animation guaranteed, especially in the evening when the basement converted into a basement piano bar.

On the edge of the Hrazdan, an unusual Tudor-style castle, redesigned by Disney... In addition to this medieval castle décor with drawbridge and turrets, this restaurant, which is accessed via the Kievian Bridge, is worth a visit for its menu, which offers the classics of Armenian cuisine, khorovadz, mezze and salads, as well as European dishes. The prices are higher than those of neighbouring establishments, and the atmosphere is more uptight... even if the original setting attracts a local clientele, families and groups of friends, who take it easy on the dance floor from 8 pm

"Chez Artashès" (the name of the restaurant), located behind the cathedral, offers a choice of grilled meats and kebabs(khorovadz) which have made it a great success. The meat is tasty and the service is fast on the first floor as well as on the more intimate second floor. The quality of the khorovadz and other grilled meats with mushrooms has made the reputation of the place, where it is better to reserve if you want to taste the specialities. Such a success that there are "Artashi Mot", more fast-food, on Spendiarian street in the north and Yervant Kotchar street.

As the sign underlines, subtitled "nacha derevnia" in Russian ("our village"), authentic Armenian specialties are offered in a decor that reproduces the atmosphere of the traditional villages of Armenia and more generally of the Caucasus, which means wood, kilim and crafts. The service is done in traditional costume, to the sound of Armenian folk music. Among the dishes offered, specialties of rural Armenia at reasonable prices: khash or harissa, or manti, these Armenian raviolis served in a broth.

Set up in an original and typical Caucasian tavern setting evoking the rich history of old Yerevan, even if it is located at the entrance of this newly created Northern Avenue which symbolizes the will to modernize the capital, this restaurant, with a lift, offers a naturally typical Armenian cuisine, served by waitresses in traditional costumes, to the sound of often folk music, but varying from floor to floor, all at prices that remain reasonable, even with the wines.

Tortillas and tacos at the foot of the Ararat, or rather the Opera! For several years now, this great restaurant with its Latin décor has been offering Mexican or Texmex specialities, and although it is no longer alone in this culinary niche, it still attracts a large number of customers, seduced by the specialities of the house as well as by the musical atmosphere. The youth of Yerevan has gotten into the texmex and salsa era, and goes there to eat or just to have a glass of mojito or other cocktails which the establishment makes a speciality!

In the coolness of the very pleasant winter garden and its pond with fountain of the luxurious Grand Hotel Yerevan, ideally located on Abovian Street and in the greenery of the terrace overlooking Charles Aznavour Square, great Italian and international cuisine. An elegant setting, but not too stuffy though, for a tasty cuisine, offering the most refined specialities, served by attentive staff, all washed down with the best Italian and Armenian vintages, which are likely to make the bill soar.

This restaurant located in the northern outskirts of Yerevan, towards Komitas Avenue, in a lively quarter with green areas, offers, among other Armenian specialties, those enjoyed in the province of Shirak and its capital, Gyumri. Only connoisseurs will know the difference, but the cuisine of Gyumri and the Shirak province is more rustic and sober, suited to the harsher climate of this northern region, where khach and other body-friendly specialties help to cope with the rigours of winter ,

This restaurant located near the Republic Square is dedicated to the cuisine of Western Armenia, more exactly of Cilicia, as the sign says, which pays homage to the city of Ayas, the only large port that Armenia ever had, on the Mediterranean Sea, at the time of the Kingdom of Cilicia. However, no seafood platters. In culinary terms, the cuisine of Western Armenia does not really differ from that of Armenia, but you will be able to savour the diversity of it in this tastefully decorated restaurant to the sound of traditional music.

Somewhat off-centre, on one of the main sloping streets on the edge of the Hrazdan gorges, this restaurant is one of the survivors of the good times in a district that used to be full of khorovadz and other grilled meats, offered in stands on the pavements of Prochian and Paronian avenues until a few years ago. A good sign for the value for money and the typical decor, as well as for the Armenian specialties on offer, among the restaurants located in this area where the scent of kebabs still emanates.

The sign is Italian, the cuisine is Italian, but it is also international and the clientele is made up of the nouveau riche who like to show off in the flashy and slightly kitsch decor of this restaurant with orchestra, without looking to spend money. Perhaps as much ethno-sociological as gastronomic interest, although the menu has improved, for this establishment located between the heights of the Cascade, on the edge of the greenery of the Victory Park, and the northern outskirts of the Armenian capital, therefore a little far from the centre.

This bar-restaurant, located in the lively Opera district, offers authentic Italian cuisine, whose specialties are popular in Yerevan. All kinds of pasta, but also dishes from different regions of Italy, a wide assortment of cold cuts, and very hearty pizzas too, which are tastefully presented in a rather sober decor, all washed down with Italian wines, but also Armenian vintages, served on large tables to create an atmosphere that is meant to be convivial, in the Italian style.

Situated to the right of the Cascade, in a district rich in all kinds of entertainment, this very nice newly created restaurant is worth visiting, especially during the sunny days: it is indeed one of the still too rare places in the capital where you can have lunch and dinner on the terrace and be offered, by a friendly and helpful staff, a varied and good quality menu, which does not spoil anything, of Armenian and international specialties. The "expats" of the capital have made it their Q. G.

A sign installed in the pleasant and relaxing greenery of Hakhtanagui Aiki (the Victory Park), on the heights overlooking the "Waterfall" and all of Yerevan. This bar-restaurant offers a wide choice of Armenian and also French specialties, even from other countries, at moderate prices, even with the addition of Armenian wines, all in a friendly atmosphere, on the terrace in the summer, where children can enjoy the surrounding green areas without fear of cars.

Located in the northern suburbs of Yerevan, but nevertheless in a lively area, relatively green when the summer has not been too hot, this restaurant specializing in Middle Eastern gastronomy offers a wide variety of Lebanese and Syrian dishes, quite similar to Armenian cuisine but whose subtleties have been appreciated by Armenians since the arrival of many Syrian refugees in the country. To be eaten on the spot or to take away, day or night.
