Terrible food. Absolutely terrible service. "Trout" was very bony (?) Service fee (for a credit card) and tip were included in the check. Never coming back here.

Amazing food and beautiful place!!!

Totally nice experience at Sayat Nova last night with welcoming staff, very good food, and cozy atmosphere & music. I've never had Armenian food and it reminded me a little of Turkish & Persian food. Notwithstanding, their lamb meatballs in yogurt sauce was exceptional. Their hot stuff grape was good, but I should have order the cold variety, which I bet were even better (raisins and more goodies). The stuff eggplant was comparable to the aforementioned other cuisines. I really enjoyed the subtle flavor of the red lentil. Finally, the cheese puff pastry turnover was delicious.

I was looking for an authentic Armenian restaurant and this place was recommended. It is not what I expected. Looks like Armenian authenticity is just the name of the place, and probably the owner itself with a small number of dishes on the menu. It's really a mix of Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern dishes. But the food was decent. So if you are looking for real Armenian food this is not the place.

There was a very large birthday party group expected. but this made no difference to our seating, our service, or our food, all of which were topnotch, from the hello of the hostess to the "thanks for coming" we heard from all when we left. The food we received was perfectly prepared and tasted even better than we remembered from last time, beverage refills were all right on cue. Altogether a brilliant evening: all stars all around!

Incredible.

Beautiful restaurant with an outstanding menu, split a bunch of smaller dishes with my wife, service was quick and pleasant. Best stuffed grapes leaves I've ever had, we will be back!

You know you're visiting a different kind of restaurant from the moment you step into the dining room with its subdued-lighting, small votive candles on the tables and the unfamiliar Caucasus-region music playing in the background. All the usual Mediterranean dishes are there, but different. Yes, humus, baba ganoush, tabouli and more -- but somehow different, as Armenia is different from next-door Turkey and Iran, whose cuisine is familiar to me. And there are plenty of specialities and other dishes that require a wait-server to explain in a helpful and friendly way. Our party of three thoroughly enjoyed a variety of dishes, along with equally unfamiliar wines, and each one was delicious.

A warm welcome when we arrived was followed by a concerted effort on the part of all staff to give us a very special dinner. We enjoyed a booth in a niche, and all our favorite foods were even better than we'd been obsessing about ever since we made the reservation. Beverage refills were on the button, All stars all around!
