Jijil Tavern in Yerevan, Armenia, is by far the worst eatery in a city full of great restaurants. Even though a friend had gotten food poisoning from eating there before, we decided to give it another chance. Only the service is as terrible as the food. The place caters to questionable people, so the staff act like thugs. Even though it’s illegal to smoke in restaurant patios, they allow people to smoke like chimneys. Expect to have the waiter get pretty much everything wrong about your order. If you order more than one thing, each will come about twenty-five minutes apart, so you won’t be able to eat properly. Don’t bother speaking with management; they are rude and have no concept of customer service. If there were a zero option for starts, they would get zero.
It's beautiful, delicious, and crowded. "Fog" is sprayed around the perimeter of the establishment on the street to cool it. There are tables for large companies, there are small round tables. The food is delicious, and so are the drinks. The waiters are nimble.
Very tasty and aesthetically designed food. Awesome sea buckthorn tea. The food is served quickly. The staff is polite, considerate, caring. I am pleased that the acquaintance with Yerevan began here)
This is the first restaurant we visited in Yerevan. I liked everything-the service is super! The staff is friendly, the portions are large, the food is very tasty! I really liked the dessert - ice cream with halva , as well as everything else. No complaints, well done👍👍👍
It's a great place, the staff is wonderful, it's always delicious. We came daily for breakfast and dinner, we liked everything, it was very tasty. The prices are pleasant, it can even be noted that they are cheap, a lot of people are always sitting there. The portions are large. The waiters are attentive, the change is brought immediately.
Great food, fish kebab is very cheap and delicious by Moscow standards! The staff is very good, always kind and glad to see you! I've been coming here for days in a row, but I still haven't had time to try everything from the menu!
During the week of our stay in Yerevan, we came here three times! Fast service and good food (although the fish was pumped up on the last day, it was dry, but this did not spoil the overall impression). In the tabula here, I just fell in love. The wine was also of good quality served in glasses. The hodgepodge is beyond praise. Thanks!
Everything is very tasty. The bread is incredibly delicious. In general, it is impossible to give up bread in Yerevan. In many places, they bake it themselves, but here it is especially delicious, like everything else.
An ambiguous assessment, I can't recommend visiting, personally I had slightly higher expectations from food. As if the dishes are too simple, I would work on both the taste and the serving.
On the other hand, it is the best service in general from all the places where we have been in Yerevan.
A very nice and cozy place with an adequate price-quality ratio. Be sure to come for breakfast and try the salmon and egg sandwich benedict, it's a bomb. I'm shooting a star for the staff. From my experience: one time they forgot to serve the dish, the other time the sauce for the meat, ordered separately, was carried for so long that the meat was already eaten and so, and the sauce eventually brought a BBQ, although we asked for a kebab..
In general, the impression of the restaurant is positive and we went here many times, but the staff needs to work out their mistakes!
The very good staff is sociable and will always prompt you with a choice. The food is very tasty. The kitchen makes everything fast and delicious. And finally, this is the best restaurant in Armenia.
A place in the center of the city, a nice veranda.
Very tasty dishes- excellent cuisine.
But.. something needs to be solved with the waiters.
They asked me to recommend a quiet dry wine. It was clear from the waiter's face that he did not know what he was talking about. Then we decided not to be smart)) and they explained on their fingers, but they repeated 3 times that it was dry. The result: semi-dry 1 glass and 2nd- semi-sweet ...
There are no complaints about the location and kitchen!
Definitely the first thing I will do upon arrival is come to this wonderful place. The food, the service, the staff are a delight. Of course, on the recommendation of the author of the channel Hands of the Caucasus, Eric Jan.
We went to the place closest to the rented apartment to have dinner at random and pulled out the main prize. Unrealistically tasty, huge portions, for the first time unknowingly took a salad for each, and so on, tired of eating. Then we were smarter, we took 1 salad for two. The prices also pleased me. I highly recommend it.
A cozy place, average prices, everything I tried was delicious, I'll come back on occasion.

The food is delicious, nothing can be said, but the staff leaves much to be desired. The man served us twice and walked with such a face that his appetite disappeared, moreover, he approached the table with two men who had a very rich table with a different face, and he had no desire to approach us who went to dinner. I think it is precisely because of this attitude of the staff that there are empty tables, compared to other establishments on Fridays and weekends
I was in Yerevan for the first time last November and had my first dinner in this place. Did you have dinner with wine, soups (spicy) and wonderful tortillas??? I forgot what they're called.
Everything is very nice, quiet, calm.
According to reviews: I want to get here for breakfast :)
I rarely give reviews, but I can't keep my irritation down. A CATASTROPHIC problem with the staff. During the whole time that I was sitting, not a single empty dish that I had collected on my table was removed. To call the waiter, you need to look out and call them. To ask for a menu, to ask for an order to be accepted, then a bill, to ask for change, you have to prowl the waiters, who seem to be many, but they don't seem to be looking in your direction on purpose. All by force, as if I should say "thank you" for sheltering me in this place. There are no questions about the kitchen and bar. One star for the service, I apologize to the cook. It was delicious. But the service negated the whole impression.
while we were at the hotel, we had breakfast in this cafe almost every morning, we really liked the breakfasts, it was very fast and delicious, we enjoyed the cuisine
