A strange feeling remained after visiting this restaurant. I seemed to like the food, there are no special complaints. But there was nothing to compare it with, for example, I tried dolma for the first time.
When the bill arrived, it turned out to be much higher than we expected. Some items were more expensive than on the menu. The juice is listed on the menu as 800 drams, but the receipt has already reached 1800. The service fee is 7%, and the receipt indicated 10%. There were other dishes whose prices seemed higher to us than they were on the menu, but we either couldn't prove it there, or we agreed that we had made a mistake ourselves. For example, pomegranate wine cost 1,500 instead of 1,000 simply because it was not clear on the menu for which item the price was due to the location of the translation.
In general, they were not going to rewrite the check for all our objections. Even the service fee, which is clearly indicated in the menu as 7%, was not redone for us.
Everyone can make mistakes, both the customer and the restaurant, we all make mistakes. But the fact that the restaurant is not going to improve after this is not right.
I think the main focus of this restaurant is tour groups. And there's no one watching who's paying for what. So if you are an independent traveler, I advise you to avoid this place.
Great staff, huge portions, long branches, prices like everywhere else. Even in early March, fresh flowers are on the tables. Very cozy, friendly and beautiful :)
A picturesque place. A restaurant with a very large territory, a fountain, and an authentic tandoor. The process of making tortillas in it is impressive. There are a lot of tourists. The food is on the highest score. The kebab is above all praise. The red fish is like a fairy tale. Greens , vegetables like from grandma 's garden
It's a good place, but it feels more suitable for tour groups or some kind of organized events like weddings.
The kebab was hard and dry. The potatoes and salads are very tasty.
The restaurant area is very pleasant.
The staff is good, the place is beautiful. But the food is mediocre. Many items on the menu are presented as cooked here, but when the dishes are brought, it turns out that they were just bought in a store (for example, lemonade and pita bread). But it's atmospheric.
We had lunch here from the tour on 06/25.23, the approximate time is 14-15:00. Briefly:expensive, tasteless and boorish staff. And now it is expanded: 6 people out of 11 did not like the food. People ate shish kebab (lunch), dolma, kebab and, as far as I remember, steak. The kebab and steak were with lard, which was simply impossible to chew, kebab and dolma were bland. Well, let's say the food was 3.5 out of 5 in terms of price/taste/quality ratio.
Regarding the staff: they didn't put napkins on two large tables, it's certainly not scary, they asked at the end. Next, they took turns going to the checkout, the first girl approached the staff (a boy of 17 years old at the checkout) paid and said that she did not like the food, they did not give napkins, he said that this was the first time they were told this. Then several more people came up with the same comment, the answer was identical. In my opinion, it's okay to say if you didn't like something, the restaurant itself is interested in correcting some shortcomings + we were taken here from the tour, that is, this moment also negatively affects the travel agency.
But then something unimaginable began. We were still standing in the courtyard for 5 minutes, for some reason this boy comes out, approaches the girl who came to the checkout first, and begins to sort things out: "You talked the others into saying the food was bad. Why are you lying? Nobody told us that." Well, naturally, no one got into an altercation with him, we are guests in the country, we explained once again, but this did not lead to anything and we parted.
What is good to say: the entourage is not bad, they showed how to make pita bread, a clean toilet.
But I will express my opinion by concluding that I regret visiting this institution.
It's a great place. We learned how to bake pita bread, had an incredibly delicious meal and had a great rest. The territory is very beautiful and spacious.
Delicious, inexpensive (by Yerevan standards), quiet and cozy. The entrance is in an alley, there is no sign. If you come to Garni, I recommend eating here.
06.07.22 we ordered trout 2 for 4. as a result, we ate too much, got drunk on delicious homemade dry white wine. then we were treated to fresh gotha. it was very emotional and delicious. The waiter girl is nice. after a walk to the symphony of stones, it is definitely worth visiting.
A great place, minus - they carry it for a long time, because there are many tourist groups. The food was delicious, the kebab was better than the kebab. Overall, we enjoyed our lunch here
A very cozy place, far from the roads - it feels like somewhere in the country or in the village, so there are no unnecessary city noises. The portions are very large and delicious!

We had a big dinner here. The kitchen is good, I can't appreciate the surroundings, because we were sitting outside under the trees. I note that the baked trout is very tasty.

It's really delicious, average prices, lots of space, there's even a fountain — freshness in the heat!
It is impossible to advise here, it is necessary to insist on sterlet in a tandoor without fail with potatoes from under fish, and to have a snack after peach vodka of their preparation and to interrupt the aftertaste is a crime against the person.
