We had an amazing dinner here. The food was delicious but the highlight of the evening were the pakhlava (which was super tender and tasty) and the drinks we got, the amazing cocktail made of a bunch of stuff along with pomegranate and brandy, and the Armenian wine, which is my favorite wine.The atmosphere was extremely authentic; great Armenian music and vibes, even Armenian coffee (it’s must try if you haven’t done so yet). The service was amazing as well.I can’t believe I was able to find such a jem in Spokane! I Will definitely go back.

The best beef kebab I have ever had! Coming from the Central Valley I am used to having great Mediterranean cuisine and this place really has some of the very best!

Skewers is our absolute favorite place to eat in town! When it was only in food truck form, we would plan around when we could find their truck and now are so happy we can have dinner there on a consistent basis. The food is incredible and all 3 of our kids give it a 5 star review, it’s one of the only places we can get all of the kids to agree on. Service is amazing, Armenian wine is a win and don’t forget to try their date lemonade! Mirak is one of a kind at his craft and you can taste how much passion he has for his food. The food is always consistently perfect and we just love everything about Skewers.Dietary restrictions: My husband has serious food restrictions with soybean oil / seed oils. We’re always able to make the one accommodation he needs with pita and he’s able to eat his favorite dish, beef shawarma.Kid-friendliness: Our kids love ordering family style so we can all try as much as possible. They love switching up their lemonade flavors each trip and the sampler sauce plate with pita is maybe their favorite app ever.

worst food i’ve had in my life. The meat was dry, the sauce was horrible and i don’t believe it’s a good representation of middle-eastern food. The ONLY good thing was the baklava.

Skewers was highly suggested by my friend, so both her and I decided to come here for Inlander Restaurant Week. My experience here was wonderful, and I am definitely looking forward to introducing my other friends to this restaurant! Since we came in on a Friday during restaurant week, the place was pretty full - overall though the atmosphere was very comfortable. There was one guy who was mainly helping my friend and I, and he seemed very attentive, often apologizing for the kitchen being a bit behind, which I really appreciated. In terms of the food, my friend and I were able to share so many different items as a result of restaurant week. We got to try a few dips, some falafel, a chicken schwarma wrap, and some baklava and rice pudding as well. Everything was so well-seasoned and delicious. I loved the flavors in my wrap, and the fries had this awesome seasoning as well. The entree portions were huge, however I wish they could've taken some of that quantity and give it to the apps as well, which seemed a bit on the smaller size. I was a huge fan of both desserts, however my friend didn't really like the rice pudding that much - it was our decision to be adventurous and try something new though, so I was pretty happy regardless. Honestly for the price of $25, I am very happy with the food and my overall experience. I was told that Skewers often does catering for WSU medical students -- I wish my program could get the same as well :'). Definitely looking forward to coming back!

Great lamb kebobs and rice with toasted pistachios. Some of the best baklava since Victor Azar's place shut down. Worth the trip downtown... founded by one of the guys who started Feast World Kitchen. Also worth the trip!

Finally got to try Skewers *and* during Restaurant Week! Armenian food right here in Spokane. They started as a food truck and now have a beautiful brick & mortar restaurant on Monroe & 1st, right across from The Fox Theater (formerly Scratch!). AUTHENTIC, HOMEMADE MIDDLE EASTERN CUISINE. Every bite screamed FRESH! The flavors are all spot on delicious. The portions were more than generous, like you're a guest in their home and they like you! The plating was a appealing. Restaurant Week means Foodie Olympics here in Spokane, so you know I had to order everything on the menu... all three choices for all three courses. Enjoy these mouthwatering pictures, then get over there and support this business. Vegetarian options here as well. I will most definitely be back to nosh on their regular menu items soon!

Such a fun time! We went here for restaurant week and the courses were AMAZING. Such interesting food and great staff. The chef came out and gave us his favorite desert on the house because he wanted us to try it. 10/10

We almost didn't eat here on our 4 day visit to Spokane but I am sure am glad we did. This was the best meal we had during restaurant week. Definitely will come here again next time we visit

Amazing food. So delicious. The sauces are insanely good- we tried a huge variety of things- all were incredible truly. Better than any other food this type I've had. Love, will be back over and over.
