Great food! But The waitress works slow

Topaz — это настоящий народный ресторан, который держится на кухне, а не на «туристическом» сервисе». Столик заказывали заранее. Еда была вкусной, особенно хинкали. Официанты обслуживают средне, не торопятся, долго ждали счет. Цены порадовали, они намного дешевле чем в центре.

Amazing food and the service was great. I couldn’t believe my eyes at how big the Ceaser’s Salad was. Portion sizes, atmosphere and everything… I recommend!

One of the most famous places in Yerevan where they serve the most delicious KHINKALI and other great dishes. Good prices and excellent service!

Were with a child on recommendations acquaintances. We were terrified. The waiters confused the order several times, the ingredients of dishes do not match the menu, visitors smoke indoors + instead of apologies faced with humility from a woman named Mania (her position - "not very responsible"), drove us and shouted, although we stayed due to service errors. One score for the attentive man who planted us at the table and delicious meat hinkali.

We stayed nearby at the Venice hotel, found a cafe according to reviews, the nearest one, came for lunch and were satisfied) Yes, at the entrance they ask whether they booked or not. There are always places during the day. In the evening, there are really a lot of locals and there are no empty tables. The food is delicious, huge portions. For the first time they tried Dolma and Tabouleh salad, but they couldn't find anything tastier.… Khinkali and mutton are all delicious. The prices are adequate. An atmospheric place ) I would love to come back!

I will support some of the reviews, but they are met with a dissatisfied face. Of the dishes ordered, half were so salty that it was almost impossible to eat. No one is interested in whether they liked the dishes. They asked for the bill 3 times and waited for more than 20 minutes. After that, we waited another 15 minutes for the change. To be honest, there was a certain feeling of a dining room. You open a beer for yourself, and the leftovers are cleaned from plate to plate in front of you at the table. I don't recommend it.

Previously, both the quality and the discussions were excellent! But that's all in the past., We drove by and had a desire to have lunch. 80% of the place is free, but they still ask if they have reserved a table? And it seems like they're already doing you a favor by accepting you. Well okay. We ordered khinkali, And there's a black hair sticking out of one of them right on the ponytail, and the most disgusting thing is that the waitress looked at it very calmly, changed the plate and didn't even apologize. Apparently, this is a common occurrence among them.In short, if you want khinkali with hair, you can immediately order it in the color of your hair. Separately, you can ask for a menu of hair shades. Customer orientation 0 The quality is also not the same! Don't come here anymore!

There were 2 times. Both times at the entrance, the hostess/ manager was not particularly friendly, each time making a displeased face when we said that we had not booked (although there were enough empty seats). The waitresses were much more willing. but! The food is quite tasty, especially khinkali. Salads and kebabs were also pleasantly pleased both in taste and in portion size. The chicken kebab was slightly salty and dry. Prices are lower than in the center. The interior and atmosphere are in the spirit of the 90s.

I found this restaurant according to reviews, it is located far from the center, but you can easily get there by taxi. Without a reservation, we barely sat down on Friday evening. The place is clearly popular with locals, and for good reason. It's not a fancy place, but the food is incredibly delicious. We ordered Topaz salad, pork shish kebab on a bone and khinkali. The portions are huge (you can even have one salad for three people), it's incredibly delicious. I've never eaten this kind of salad anywhere. Shish kebab and khinkali are also beyond praise. I advise you immensely

This place was recommended to us by the locals. I've never eaten more delicious khinkali with cheese than here. They melted in my mouth. These are the best khinkali and dolma ewe! Everything is incredibly delicious. You must visit :)

The terrible service that I could see, they point out to customers and force them to buy a plate from the store to take out Khinkali, and the funny thing is that this store also belongs to them, you say, but there is another method, they say that we pour a lot of water into khinkali and you don't understand if you want to buy it or not, We understand what's there delicious khinkali but it's filthy to treat customers this way

We visited the restaurant on 05/5.25. The restaurant was chosen based on ratings and reviews in Yandex Maps. 5.0. There were four of us adults and two children aged 6 and 7. It was raining outside. They greeted us with the question "have we booked a table?" and after a negative answer, the attitude towards us changed dramatically. With an expression of great favor on our face, we were escorted to the table. It smelled like smoking. No one smokes in our company, so we moved to another table away from the smoking tables. Despite the fact that the signs "NO SMOKING" and a fine of 50,000 drams were placed on the first and second floors, all the tables were smoking. The waiter was very unhappy that we moved away from the smokers, said that they "didn't do that", but allowed us to stay at the table strictly for 2 hours!! (the restaurant was filled to a maximum of 20%, working day, 15 hours). The next requirement was to remove the wet umbrellas, because they "don't do that" so that the visitor could open the umbrella and dry it in a corner where it wouldn't bother anyone. Further, since we had two families, we asked to make two invoices to simplify the payment. And that lady ... "we don't do that."... Four-point meal. Very tasty khinkali, cucumber/tomato salad, kebab. But there are many doubts about chicken shish kebab and veal shish kebab. The meat is rubbery, not chewed at all. The steak salad was claimed to be made from angus meat, but it wasn't close to angus. In general, you can eat. But disdainful attitude and lazy service. The unwillingness to comply with the rules of reception forced the rating to be lowered. The restaurant is located in an impassable location, that is, visiting only by "friends". Of course, you can eat and even find something delicious, but you need to work on everything else. Although... They don't bother much with it.

I came here after the phrase - the best restaurant with the best prices in Khayastan. I tried all the dishes 2 times and couldn't choose the best one because all the dishes here are delicious. On my own, I recommend khinkali and topaz salad, and hot dishes of Arbat. We sat for 5 hours with vodka and beer for 7 thousand, but our bellies are full of delicious food)) Service 5* The food is 20 stars out of 5 possible Thanks to this restaurant. I would come back here when I would like to go to a Michelin restaurant.

Here we ate the most delicious khinkali. Moreover, they tried it in different countries and establishments with different pricing policies, but they couldn't find a better one. A special recommendation is their signature salad) But keep in mind that the portions are huge: one serving of salad is enough for a company of 4-5 people. It is better to book in advance, often there are no tables.

We decided to eat, but we didn't book. When we arrived, the attitude was that they were doing us a favor for accepting us without an appointment. We were given one menu for two, we waited for the waiter for 20 minutes, even the call button did not help, we pressed it many times. The wife went to call the waiter, and when she saw her, she turned around and went to serve another table. "The hospitality is off the charts"!!! If this is such an attitude towards Russians, make a note somewhere. P.S. there was no aggression or negativity on our part, we behaved politely.

They didn't understand the general excitement of this place. We lived nearby and decided to go to an advertised place. Fortunately, a table for four was found at 4 p.m. without prior reservation. But the Armenian aunts obviously served us without pleasure, through their lips. It is clear that a family with two children will not sit all evening with alcohol worth hundreds of thousands of drams. Music in the style of Stas Mikhailov was blaring in the hall, as if there was a disco (on a weekday at 4 p.m.), but fortunately we got a table on the second floor, where it was quieter. Khinkali is the most common, in a chain village in Voronezh and Rostov they serve exactly the same. There are only 3 types left to choose from: simple with meat for 300 drams apiece, fried with meat for 350 and fried with cheese for 350. Fried khinkali is like fried dumplings, there are no miracles. We also ordered grilled trout-just baked trout, nothing supernatural. Given the high prices and the remoteness of the place - don't even think about taking a taxi here - with all the rich food choices in Yerevan, you absolutely won't lose anything.

A place with a very interesting menu, but very strange. At the entrance, they asked for reservations, with tables available... They offered to eat within an hour, including the order time and cooking time.. We preferred to go to other places where they really want to feed us .

Great location near the railway station. A pleasant cool room with plants and gazebos. Very tasty food - I ordered tolma and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Tolma is the best in the city! Polite and attentive service - at the entrance they offered to leave heavy luggage at the reception, which was pleasantly surprised. The waiters are intelligent and helpful. According to the combination of factors (location, food, service and surroundings) - 5/5

I really liked fried eggs with tomatoes and khinkali (unusual dough, delicious. not fatty meat) is much tastier than in chain restaurants in Yerevan. I liked the sorrel salad, but it's more for an amateur. Cool enclosed patio, very green. With natural light.

Delicious, but salty (they love it so much). The staff is as unfriendly as possible. Maybe they don't like Russians) it's been a long time since I've met such vicious waitresses. Therefore, 1 star. They did us a favor by feeding us for our money)))

The best Khinkali, we have been visiting Topaz for two years and bringing all our relatives and friends. And not only khinkali is good - salads are top, meat, kebabs are top, chmur is just a dump of the face, about dessert in the form of khinkali with homemade nutella and banana, strawberries and mint - it's hard to just think, so immediately salivating! The prices are very affordable, alcohol is inexpensive. The service is excellent and sincere! We strongly recommend you to visit ☺️

The place is a 30-minute walk from the center - I do not recommend walking (there are almost no footpaths), it is better to take a taxi or bus. We arrived on a weekday evening. After we replied to the staff that we had not booked a table, there was a displeased face and some phrase in Armenian (apparently so that we would not understand) and only then that there were no empty tables. At the same time, two companies of Armenian men came in and all the attention abruptly shifted to them. To our questions "is it possible to wait?" "how long to wait for the table?" and so on. we were simply ignored. After 5-7 minutes (we were standing and trying to talk to someone), the girl still decided to answer us: "I don't know, girls!" 🥲 We went to this place specifically on a recommendation, but in the end we left hungry and angry.. I do not recommend this place to visit But I heartily recommend Dari Pandok in the city center.
