We were choosing where to take my wife's mother on the first day in Yerevan, and we settled on this restaurant. They didn't regret it at all!
The food is delicious, the prices are quite reasonable, and the staff is very responsive (special thanks to the waiters Eric and Davit).
Throughout the evening, Soviet-era melodies and occasionally modern ones were played by the beautiful pianist Karine, who politely communicated with all the guests and even helped the children play simple melodies.
All this together created a cozy, almost homely atmosphere.
I will name two disadvantages, but they are not enough to lower the rating:
1. Lemonade is made not on simple carbonated water, but on mineral water, the taste is peculiar.
2. The piano is upset. Please invite a customizer, and the evenings in your restaurant will become even more enjoyable!
P.S. In the photo there is a lamb dastarkhan, it was a lot for three people, so it's probably worth taking it for four with a couple of snacks.
Delicious, beautiful, movie atmosphere. Everything is done to make the guests feel comfortable. They cook quickly. They serve us politely. I recommend it because I liked the place. I consider him one of the most worthy.
As usual, a cheerful company of 20 people came in the evening on 08/25/2024 to have dinner. The food is great (all tastes were satisfied), the service is excellent, the staff is polite, those who had questions explained everything to everyone. Great live music, thanks a lot to the lady who played the piano for the mood she created, a wonderful performance! We plunged into the atmosphere of the 60s and 70s. Many thanks to all the restaurant staff for a wonderful evening!
A very cool place, the most customer-oriented staff! Thank them for their hospitality! In addition, it was also very tasty. Fast serving of dishes. I highly recommend visiting this institution!
A good restaurant. The atmosphere inside corresponds to the name of the movie. Good delicious food, live music, toper playing (in the evening). Friendly and good-natured staff. I advise you to visit.
A wonderful atmospheric place. It is very tasty, fast and high-quality. Thank you for the hospitality and the cozy atmosphere. Prosperity to you and grateful guests.
The restaurant has a beautiful interior, there are a lot of moments, I want to consider, the dishes are delicious, the price is pleasant, only the service was not pleased, an obvious manifestation of unwillingness to serve, dissatisfaction, the female waiter showed everything, the guys were smiling and polite, only from this they did not return with friends for the second time.
We were in the "Caucasian Captive" on 11/21/24. On weekdays there were free tables, but we were warned that there would be a full boarding on weekends. The interior is styled after the film of the same name. Polite staff. We ordered tolma with veal, khinkali with meat, tan and dogwood compote. The dishes did not cause delight, the compote is delicious. Among the advantages: it is located in the city center, a large selection of dishes, prices are not cosmic, they accept Mir cards.
The food is very tasty, the cuisine is varied, the service is very good, the atmosphere is pleasant, live music, a woman plays the piano very well there.
Great interior. Fast service. Khinkali tastes better than in Tbilisi (may my friends forgive me). The same delicious coupons! We found a table, despite the weekend workload. Karine made the evening magical by welcoming us as dear guests with pleasant conversation and music! We sang together!
Good afternoon. The first time and the first day in Yerevan. And the first restaurant is the Caucasian Captive. We are traveling with a big family. We have been to Georgia, Crimea, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, of course, in many European countries, i.e. there is something to compare it with. The restaurant has a wonderful interior, but the food as first courses (pea soup, lentil soup), second courses (dolma, etc.) is ordinary table food, salted, cold, without any decoration. It's not tasty!At the same time, we were all unanimous, and there were seven of us. Of course, it's a pity. And you feel ashamed. We definitely will not recommend this restaurant to our friends and acquaintances
Great restaurant! The prices are pleasant, the atmosphere is good, the staff is friendly, the food is delicious, the portions are rather big, they cook quickly.
We had a great lunch, delicious, khachapuri waited no more than 20 minutes.
Live music was playing - piano, an additional plus!
At first we came to the restaurant of the same name closer to the center, but there were no seats there and the hostess kindly booked us a table in this institution.
Thanks!
A great restaurant, the prices and portions are excellent, the barbecue is beyond any doubt cool! Another important thing for Russian tourists is that they accept Russian cards, which is very pleasant
I always take tourists to this restaurant. The scenery is great, the food is super, the prices are not high at all! There is live music and performances. You need to book in advance by phone ☝️
The Caucasian Captive chain restaurant in Yerevan. The stylistic design corresponds to the film of the same name.
The kitchen is for five, the dishes are large. They took tolma, khachapuri, khinkali (with cheese turned out to be a little dry), salads with eggplant and fresh vegetables.
In the evening, pleasant music sounds from a friendly and kind woman.
I was unlucky, khachapuri with an egg, and the horror of poisoning and the whole trail. The day was bed rest, and there was a table next to me, the girls came, the locals also wanted khachapuri, they were told that there was no one! Then I talked to both locals and guests of Yerevan, they immediately guessed what I was poisoned from (when I told them where I had lunch (it's probably not the first time! Very sorry
Thematic restik 👌🏻 we liked it 😊 classy interior 🤓 delicious food 🥘 delicious wine 🍷 😎 nice atmosphere when we were there , a woman was playing the piano or piano 😁 😁 I don't understand 😅 but she played like a virtuoso 🤩 all modern tracks 😎 pleasant staff , and do I in Yerevan liked 😁 restik class 👍 🏻 😜suggest
I ordered turkey cutlets with vegetables. They brought it quickly, but it would be better not to carry it at all:
1) the cutlets on the menu take up half of the plate, in reality - a quarter.
2) The cutlets are burnt and hard, they were only cut with a knife.
3) instead of vegetables in the photo, there were mushrooms in the plates, drowned in oil and a couple of pieces of pepper. There was a lot of oil.
Fried suluguni was also ordered, it was brought barely warm, and the cheese inside had already cooled and hardened back.
But the khachapuri on the skewer was awesome! Hot, fresh, the cheese inside stretched, delicious!
It's a very atmospheric place. They chose it by its appearance. We were on Saturday evening, there was live music, it's always very pleasant. Everything was delicious from what was ordered, the only thing in the smoothie was a lot of ice, but it was to taste.
Very tasty)
They cook quickly. But, of course, it depends on the number of visitors.
The service is good.
Keep in mind that every cafe charges 10% for service.
It seems to be more of a tourist destination than for locals. Delicious kharcho, meat dishes. But in general, it feels like the guests are not very welcome. No one met us at the entrance, waiters and other employees were passing by, everyone was not up to us. The waiter was a very young boy, he tried very hard, but he mixed up the tea, but we drink any kind, it's not scary. In general, it's not bad, but so far there is no desire to return, or you need to go at hours when there is no one at all
When you are in Yerevan, be sure to come in and taste the dishes of this restaurant. Everything is very tasty. The atmospheric interior will take you to the episodes of the film "The Caucasian Prisoner", there is also live music, Karine, thank you for the musical selection on the piano.
On the advice of friends who live in Yerevan, we visited this restaurant and were very satisfied. Friendly staff, delicious dishes, charming live music in the evenings, I liked everything so much that during my vacation we came here more than once. Thank you very much)))
I ordered a pork neck for 3600 drams and brought 2 pieces of meat, one of which consists of 3/4 bone.
The manager argued for a long time that it was 300 grams and that it was just such a bony neck.
I've ordered a barbecue a lot of places, but this is the first time I've seen such a neck.
There was no time to wait for a new portion for another 30 minutes, and the impression of the evening and the place was greatly spoiled.
Amazing atmosphere and incredibly delicious food.
We were very lucky when we were in the restaurant, there was live music. The magnificent pianist Kara charged the guests of the restaurant with enchanting emotions and a joyful mood.
This restaurant is worth visiting at least once. And better - more)))
In general, a great place, but a little expensive (a little more expensive than the average in the city) and strange, like an Armenian restaurant, but there is no lomaggio, and the waiter made it clear with gestures that this is a "so-so" dish, not worthy of this restaurant. Strange.
A wonderful place! The staff is simply amazing!!! We were on a tourist trip with friends, went to this atmospheric place and could not help but return to it)))). I definitely recommend it!!! The dishes are so huge that you can safely take for two. Wonderful pianist ☺️. Thank you so much for your hospitality 😘😘😘
The design of the place is interesting, in the evening there is good live music, a girl on the piano plays melodies from Soviet films, that's it!
The service was disgusting, the menu was brought, no one came up for a long time, I almost had to wave my hands so that at least someone would come up, when they finally caught the waiter, they heard in response:now the boy will come up, a boy came up, who apparently went for a smoke break while we were calling him here, because the guy smelled great of cigarettes.
the kitchen is straight for three. the dishes are not delicious.
in general, you can only go for the interior.
The place is not the best. The lamb kebab is dry, I liked only the chicken kebab and khinkali. The waiter did not say that the dish was missing, brought another dish, and began to argue. Then he walked around with a sidelong glance . The appliances were waiting for a long time ( there were only knives on the table ) . There is little food for children and soft drinks . The bread is similar to yesterday's, as is the meat. Does not match the pictures in the menu . They asked to pay for the terrible service, but they refused. The restaurant is popular with Russian tourists for this film. Maybe we were unlucky, but I don't advise walking. The restaurant spoils the impression of Yerevan
Delicious, atmospheric. Live music in the evening. Maybe we were lucky and there were empty seats. The food is served quickly, the waiter (girl) is friendly.
The food is not as tasty as it was 5 years ago. The restaurant has turned into a home restaurant, the hostess plays the piano and is very loud, interferes and not very high quality :). The waiters are polite, but very tired and you don't really feel relaxed :)
Delicious, interesting interior, but that's it. The service is disgusting. It all starts with the fact that there is nowhere to take off their outerwear, people are forced to wave their hands near densely arranged tables. Two menus were brought to us for three, only one of which is in Russian. We took turns leafing through and choosing what to order, but waited even longer for our order to be accepted. There are no desserts on the menu, but we were given an additional sheet with cakes. We ordered hot and dessert. The first set brought cakes, one of which was with ice cream… Then they brought drinks and half an hour later they brought one hot one, later the other two. For such an expensive cost of dishes, it is unpleasant to tolerate such service. I do not recommend it!
We ordered kebab and khinkali. The kebab was brought, but it was dry, khinkali was waited for half an hour, they did not bring them to us. We were at lunch, there was an empty hall, the workload was low. We turned to the waiter, at first she said that they had not been punched in the receipt, after we found the receipt, she told us to wait some more. We decided to leave without waiting, without compensation. The waiters are slow and not very friendly, the cooks are apparently even slower. I don't recommend it.
If 10% tips were not automatically included in the receipt, they would not have left a tip at all
