Tavern Yerevan
The institution for a first Armenian dinner: wood-panelled rooms, enormous platters and every classic done properly. Always full — book ahead.
📍 Kentron, Yerevan — Amiryan 5
★ Обязательно попробуйте: Khorovats platter with grilled vegetables
Walking into Tavern Yerevan feels like arriving at an Armenian family feast that has been running, uninterrupted, since the nineties. Waiters in traditional dress weave between long wooden tables carrying trays that defy physics.
What to order
- Khorovats platter — the benchmark of the city: pork, lamb and summer vegetables over vine-wood coals.
- Spas to start, especially in winter.
- Gata with soorj to close, if you still can.
Good to know
Book a day ahead for dinner (they answer on WhatsApp), ask for the cellar room if you are a group, and expect live folk music from 20:00 — it is part of the deal, not a disturbance.
