The food here is excellent and the owner and staff are great. If you’re planning a party they can also accommodate large orders. Highly recommend.

Service - the service was slow, e.g. food came >40mins after ordering; I had to go to the counter to ask for service every time.The worst part is, the menu says my entry comes with vegetables and I confirmed with the waitress when ordering, but it ended up not coming with vegetables, when I asked the waitress said it's expected to not have vegetables. They eventually gave the vegetables, but is it that hard to admit the mistake?Food - fish is not fresh, kebab is good.And FYI- there's a 4% credit card fee - IRS should definitely audit it.- they charge $2/person for water.

A Paterson staple for middle eastern cuisine. Try the lentils and rice combo with a mixed grill, Armenian salad and their hummus. Excellence is an understatement. 10/10 and amazing hospitable experience during Ramadan.

Being of Armenian descent, I really appreciate when the food is truly authentic. The shish kabob is awesome.

Delicious- fresh- reasonable! We will be back. Just be aware… if you are gluten free, the rice has semolina and the fries are coated with wheat. Ask a lot of Q’s about GF options!Such a sweet place.Vegetarian options: Choices galore! Fresh!Parking: Easy!!!
Food was pretty good. Some dishes are better than others. The Hummus was average at best. Babaganouj was exceptionally good. Grilled Meat was lean and tasty. Sugok was below average, meat pies were good.
had to take long 2 hour drive here I don't mind it's the only Armenian restaurant in the area I also happen to be of an Armenian heritage myself, the shawarma was delicious, I wish they sold a pork shawarma since we Armenians are Christians and we do eat pork but I guess they don't serve it here because their clientele in this area aren't like us Armenians or the ones that do eat pork, there isn't a community of us Armenians in this part of the country this place is extremely rare.

Krichians is the best restaurant in all of NJ. The food is always amazing, service is always great, and the atmosphere is perfect. If you are looking for a place to eat, Krichians should be your #1 go to.

Met a friend for lunch. We had a selection of appetizers. You need to try the muhamarah spread. Just lovely. My friend, who never came here prior, was blown away by the food -- especially the lentil pilaf.

Really enjoyed this authentic Armenian restaurant! Some very traditional kabobs and dessert just like my grandmother used to make us.
