Dolmama - Armenia's Restaurant

Dolmama sits on Pushkin St in Kentron, Yerevan's central district, and serves a compact Armenian menu split into two sections: soups/salads/appetizers and stews/entrees. Starters include sepas soup and pipert soup at 2500֏ each, aveluk soup at 3500֏, and sturgeon bisque at 4000֏, alongside an Armenian salad (2500֏) and arugula salad (4000֏). The entrees lean toward slow-cooked stews: mountain lamb stew, goat stew with tarragon, and beef stew are each 9000֏, while rabbit stew runs 11000֏. The signature dish is Dolma "Dolmama" at 7000֏, alongside a separate lamb meat dolma also at 7000֏. With soups starting around 2500֏ and stews reaching up to 11000֏, a full meal with a starter and a stew comfortably lands in the higher range, though the venue's average check is listed around 4500 AMD, suggesting many guests order lighter combinations like a soup and salad or a single dolma dish. The menu suits diners looking for a focused Armenian meal rather than a large spread — someone wanting to try dolma, aveluk soup, or a tarragon-seasoned goat stew in one sitting. At 4.2 stars across 836 reviews, it has an established base of feedback. Located at 10 Pushkin St in Kentron, it's positioned for travelers and locals exploring central Yerevan who want a sit-down Armenian menu rather than a quick bite.
