Armenian and Mediterranean restaurant. Open since July 2017. Overall food was good. Service a little slow but okay. I think if they open longer that will have more experience.
You get home made Armenian bread made they're nice and thick with pita . A bowl of herb pour olive oil for dipping.
Appetizer: Combination platter with stuffed grape leaves (dolma), hummus, and tabouli. Best dolma I've had so far in Charlotte. Good amount of flavorful fillings, Tavoli with very good flavor. Hummus fresh and nice hint of citrus.
We got a Greek salad with beef kebab. Beef kebab melt in your mouth but needs a little bit more of salt. Greek dressing didn't have much flavor but the salad has good variety of vegetable.
Chicken Pelmeni: ground chicken and a dumpling serve with sour cream and butter. Very flavorful. Remind me of pierogi.
Khinkali it's like a soup dumpling from Jorden. It's filled with lamb. Also can be eaten with sour cream and butter. Reminds me of the Chinese soup dumpling. Very flavorful definitely recommend.
I have the porkchops with rice, hummus, and cabbage salad. Cabbage salad has a vinegar tone no mayonnaise. It also has Granny Smith apple along with corn mix with it I like the combination.The Porkchop was nicely cooked to perfect temperature with good Armenian seasoning.
To finish it off we had Armenian coffee and Armenian cake which is like a honey cake. The cake was not sweet it had the perfect flavor. it felt dry but when you put it in your mouth it was perfect.
Armenian coffee comes black like an espresso shot no sugar or cream. I liked it it did not have a bitter aftertaste but my husband did not mix it and felt He was drinking dirt.
Would recommend. Definitely getting more dolma and
