Armenia Food Guide: 10 French food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Yerevan
Find out what French restaurants to try in Yerevan. Long fought over by warring empires, the city of Yerevan survived centuries of foreign occupation, finally becoming independent with the fall of the Soviet Union. This capital city, a center of Armenian culture, has celebrated its freedom with a flurry of construction and a growing population. Despite this push forward, history survives in Yerevan - The Institute of Ancient Manuscripts houses books dating back to the 9th century, and the ruins of the Erebuni Fortress, built in 782 BC, still stand.

Great restaurant over the city of Yerevan. And the city view is an experience. The restaurant focuses on French cuisine, the menu is very interesting. Every prepared meal is a small piece of art. Both in terms of taste and presentation. The staff of the restaurant is perfectly professional, and the young waiters who are learning the craft are very sympathetic. The attention of the staff to the guests is exemplary and very pleasant.I used the restaurant for six days and every dinner was an experience. The piano accompaniment mediated by the young artist's experience intensified. It is not possible to recommend one meal because all was great. Visit this restaurant and you will be happy.Dear guest, thank you so much for sharing your valuable opinion and experience at our Restaurant. We would definitely love to have you at us once again!!!

Do not be fooled by this place's decor, if you end up going there you will be wasting your time and money,and you'll be in for a nasty surprise.The service is poor,the music playing at 11:00 am is too loud as i was unable to hear the person sitting across the tiny table,the food took ages to arrive, and when it did, it was the wrong order, as the waiter somehow messed up the order eventhough it was a simple one and we were the only guests there, and I ended up waiting another century for the right order to arrive, and still it was not as described on the menu.And finally they tried to bribe me by discounting the item ( which i left behind untouched) from the bill and offering me a baguette on the house to get on my good side,after they managed to ruin my morning.Thus my fellow readers, do yourselves a favor walk across the street go to Tamanyan street and there you will definitely find better options .Dear simonz778, thanks for sharing your feedback. Weâre sorry your experience didnât match your expectations. It was an uncommon instance and weâll do better.We will use your feedback to make us better and to ensure this doesnât happen again.

best place I visited in Yerevan. We arrived late and were warmly accommodated by the staff, food was great and all tasty (plus we got good portions on everything we ordered). We were given a complimentary drink which tasted really nice and the shisha menu was great. It offered many different types and staff accommodated us and offered advice on strengths and how to make it lighter if it was too strong. they were very accommodating throughout and I would definitely visit again. If in Yerevan, you must visit this lounge!

After reading some reviews about this restaurant we decided to visit for dinner. There is a wine room where you can choose what you would like to drink, either bottle or glas. My husband was eating Peking duck and he was in heaven during the whole meal and then need to be mentioned that we have been in China eating the same.
2. The Club Yerevan

The Club is an uncommon combination of gallery, restaurant, tea room and a wine cafe. It's neither snobbish nor exclusive. The real star here is the creative Armenian cuisine prepared with a French touch and served with truffle and paired wines.

I've fallen very sick with gastroenteritis after eating in this restaurant (I guess the culprit was the trout appetizer), and had to stay 2 days in an Armenian hospital completely ruining all the trip - after 10 days i'm still recovering.I'm sure I have just been very unlucky about it, the restaurant has a good reputation in Erevan.Dear Gabriele,We are very sorry for the trouble you went through and hope you are feeling much better now. We are very puzzled because Trout appetizer is one of the most popular dishes that we serve all the time with no problems at all. The trout we purchase comes with the certificate from the National Institute of Standards, The Ministry of Economy of the Republic of Armenia. The symptoms of the disease youâve described usually manifest themselves during 12-72 hours from the time of the infection and there are many ways gastroenteritis can be spread. For example, through contact with someone who has the virus, contaminated food or water, unwashed hands after going to the bathroom, etc. Since you have visited many restaurants, Iâm not sure why you have decided that this unfortunate event was caused by our food. In any case, we would have loved to meet with you but, as we understand, youâve left Armenia. If you visit Armenia again, please contact us. Weâll be happy to have you as a guest and our chef will share with you how he prepares the trout and other dishes from our inventive menu. We sincerely wish you well and hope that you are in good health now!Thank you!
