Jano Restaurant Yerevan
Since 1946
Jano is one of the most delicious spots of Yerevan. The first Jano Restaurant opened in 1946 in Aleppo by an Armenian man Hagob-Jano Ghazaryan. When the war started in Syria in 2011 the owners decided to move the restaurant to Armenia. Jano offers Middle-Eastern food of superior quality. They also have food sets for groups to allow people to try a variety of their dishes.
Jano offers almost all kinds of kebabs and meats. The salads are also fresh and fulfilling. The Middle-Eastern appetizers are great as always. The atmosphere is nice, although it might be a bit noisy on weekends. I usually take my international guests to Jano for food and we try everything, so I can't specify a dish or two. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Overall, a good place to enjoy life with quality food!

Noy Wine Factory
Good wine, brandy and vodka
Noy Wine Factory Yerevan has tastings — it's where I had the best brandy and wine I ever tasted. What's more: it's built next to a 16th century fortress.

Eating homey
Cozy Yerevan spot with homemade-style food, great veggie options, and a vintage shop at the entrance. Don’t miss the pumpkin soup, it’s my favorite.

Jengyalov Hac
Jungle bread
On Teryan St, Jengyalov Hac serves this Artsakh specialty: flatbread stuffed with wild greens. Hearty, healthy, and best with matsnaprtosh or tan.

Yerevan Metro
Feel the smell of Soviet
The Yerevan Metro system isn't beautiful, but it's a place with people that remind me of Soviet times. I love exploring places close to the stations...
