Armenian cooking in Yerevan runs from stand-up lahmajun counters to linen-napkin taverns, all built around grilled meat, herb-heavy stews, and flatbread. Kentron holds the highest concentration — fifteen spots between Republic Square and the Opera — while Cascade leans contemporary. Average checks land near 9,500 dram for two, though lahmajun-only joints drop that to 2,500 and wine-cellar taverns push toward 15,000. The core menu rarely changes: khorovats (charcoal-grilled pork, lamb, or chicken), dolma (grape leaves or vegetables stuffed with rice and meat), and lavash baked in a sunken clay oven.
