Ararat

I wasn’t sure at first but this place is just so good - the food is delicious with really fresh flavours and lovely service! The menu/ descriptions don’t quite do the quality and taste of the food justice. Really recommend the trio of salads (they’re more like sides but each one very different and tasty), the kebab was perfectly cooked and we loved the baklava too - very nutty and not too syrupy. Really recommend trying this out!

What an unexpected joy to find an Armenian restaurant tucked away in Sirmione! As an Armenian myself, it felt SO special to see our food represented here and done so beautifully. I ordered the pelmeni (a Russian-style dumpling) which was perfectly boiled, filled with turkey and cilantro, and full of comforting flavor. I also had the lamb chops and lule kabob, served with fresh greens, sumac spiced red onions, pomegranate seeds, and seasoned potato wedges. Having grown up with Armenian food, I can confidently say the entire order was OUTSTANDING. It reminded me of my mom’s and grandma’s cooking but with a refined, restaurant quality touch. For dessert, I tried the baklava, which was rich and hearty, with a more pie-like top crust instead of the typical thin filo. It was delicious and unique. One of the best parts of the meal was chatting in Armenian with the owner, who was so warm, kind, and welcoming. It truly felt like a little piece of home in an unexpected place. I highly recommend it to anyone, Armenian or not, who wants a comforting, flavorful, and authentic meal❤️

Very interesting to try Caucasian cuisine in Italy. Delicious kebab, khachapuri and dolma. Amazing experience, very kind owner and cozy atmosphere!

Delicious! This place has been recently opened. The food was incredible. We took Lula kebab, Hashlama, Pelmeni, Khachapuri and Bakhlava for dessert. Everything was stunning! The staff was very friendly and gentle. We were offered a dessert as we had a birthday. We drank red wine, tarchun (national lemonade with a pear taste) and cognac Ararat (honey and coffee tastes). Delicious as well. We’ll definitely come back! 🫶

The meat was good, but the meat-filled blintzes were the worst I’ve ever eaten. Perhaps for some tourists the food is acceptable, but not for me. I’m from Moldova, where this type of food is traditional, and I know how it should taste.It is simple not worth the money.
