" What an incredible dining experience! From the moment we entered, the warm and welcoming atmosphere enveloped us. The owner personally recommended the kebabs, and now I see why they’re talked about so much - they were outstanding! The service was attentive yet unobtrusive, just how we like it. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was a bit disappointed with my visit. The food had potential but lacked authenticity and flavor. I was expecting better based on prior reviews. Although the ambiance had charming décor, some of the service felt rushed, which detracted from my experience. I left feeling unsatisfied, and I am hesitant about returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can’t believe I waited so long to try this place! The moment I stepped in, the aroma of fresh spices captivated me. I sampled a variety of dishes, including shashlik and grape leaves, and they were all delicious! The owners are so warm and inviting, making the experience personal. If you're in the neighborhood, don’t miss out on experiencing this fantastic culinary journey. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just visited for lunch and I was blown away! The khachapuri was cheesy and flavorful, and the fresh baked bread was the best I’ve had. The interior is cozy, making for a great dining experience. Plus, their homemade juices are to die for! I'll definitely be adding this restaurant to my regular rotation and highly recommend it to all! " (*Curated Review*)

" This dining experience was somewhat disappointing. Though I had high hopes, the food lacked flavor and authenticity, and the service was inattentive. I was puzzled by the assortment of dishes on the menu but confused by the lack of attentiveness from the staff. The atmosphere was inviting, but it didn't compensate for the overall lack of satisfaction during my visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Restaurant Ararat is everything I hoped for and more. The food is flavorful and beautifully presented. Each meal is served up with love, and that’s evident from the first bite. My only downside was a bit of inconsistency with service, as the staff seemed somehow overwhelmed with orders. Overall, I'll definitely be coming back for another taste of those delightful kebabs! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is truly a hidden gem! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for an intimate meal or a family gathering. The food is simply amazing, bursting with authentic flavors. I tried their lamb kebabs and baklava - both were excellent! My only downside was the slight delay in service during peak hours, but the staff’s friendliness makes up for it. I highly recommend giving it a try! " (*Curated Review*)
