Araks Restaurant Yerevan

Tasty Middle-Eastern cuisine

"Araks offers affordable, delicious Middle Eastern food in a cozy setting. Come for a quick lunch or relaxed dinner and try the Krdieh or falafel."

Araks restaurant has relatively affordable prices and great food. Founded by Syrian-Armenian Ms. Jorjetta Ohanian, this place has some delicious Middle Eastern food. At first sight, it may look slightly chic, but in just a few minutes, you will feel comfortable here. This place is great for having a quick lunch or a long dinner with friends or family.

My favorite dish here is the Krdieh. In fact, I discovered this dish right at Araks. It was the easiest dish to make and yet very delicious for my taste.

The falafel sandwiches are also popular.

Now with laws in place forbidding smoking inside (unlike a few years back), it is a great place for spending some relaxed time around great food.
