We hadn't been to the Armenian Taverna for a few years. There is now some unattractive building work at the street level but once you go down to the restaurant it is as welcoming and atmospheric as we remember. I made particularly good choices of food this time. My borsch was a good warming starter for a cold Saturday evening and the Armenian goulash was excellent more reminiscent of a Lancashire hotpot than a Hungarian goulash but with rice! I really enjoyed my meal. My wife's meal was unremarkable and she was somewhat disappointed. Our meals were quite expensive, coming to £70.50 for two starters, two main courses, two beers and a bottle of sparking water.
We happened upon this well established Armenian restaurant at the heart of Manchester on a recent visit, and we’re not disappointed. The menu is a great mix of traditional Armenian dishes. We enjoyed excellent grilled meats (the mixed plate was very substantial and tasty), delicious Ararat pies, a generous soup and flavoursome dolmas. The wine list has extensive Armenian and Georgian wines, most by the glass (though do taste them first if you are going by the glass). With sparkling water and dessert our bill for two including service came to just over £100.
The staff at the restaurant were friendly and accommodating when helping me find vegan options. It was my first time trying Armenian cuisine, and I was pleasantly surprised by the flavors, even though I typically prefer spicy food. Overall, it was definitely worth trying and making the trip to the restaurant.

This place is fantastic, the food is delicious. There are also plenty of vegetarian options available! Overall, I really enjoyed the selection of Eastern European dishes.
We had a delicious meal here and the service was very good. Recommend the lamb chops but everything we ate was lovely. Would recommend and will return.
I was meant to come here last Valentine's daybut didn't happen :( so I was glad I had the opportunity to come here last night.

"Excuse me, do you know someone called Barouyr Der Haroutounian?" I wasn't even ashamed to ask the question and the answer was irrelevant.
