Neiki UllahOctober 12, 2015Go crazy on the apps with the raw beef, quail and meat, hummus with meat, and the traditional Armenian ravioli dish. Mind blown. Stomach full. Amazing place for din or lunch and wonderful staff ;)
Joe PorrittApril 15, 2017Came to Almayass with a group of about 30 friends from school and we had an outstanding time. Highly recommend this place for large gatherings. Service was friendly and attentive & food was excellent.
- Leemor YuravlivkerDecember 16, 2018Great Armenian food. Highlight was pine nut hummus. They give free pita for the table. Spinach mantee was good but smaller than expected.
Isaac PhApril 27, 2015True gem in NYC! This is one of my girlfriend and my favourite restaurants. Can't beat the experience or the food. Try the beet hummus.
Esther HaddadJanuary 15, 2013Excellent Food, Beautiful Environment, Delicious Food, Ask for Roy who knows the menu inside out, and recommends the best! Friendly, Efficient Staff! Clean, Museum Quality Art on its walls! Great!!!
Clarissa TartarJune 10, 2016Top-notch Lebanese & Armenian food! PS - try the ashta with assal (clotted cream with honey) for dessert
Christina HagopianMarch 8, 2013Basterma and quail egg mezze a must. Fatoosh salad, manti, eggplant dolma, kebabs -- all delicious. Skip dessert. Rosewater and mint sorbet were soapy sweet and artificial
Tasting TableMay 16, 2012Take a cue from this family-run mini empire and go all-in with a family-style meal of mujadara, mantee and sour-cherry-sauced beef kebabs: Read more- Esther HaddadJanuary 15, 2013Painting by Hamil Bachian (Artist based in Yerevan, Armenia) it is composed of 50 panels, each panel represents a day in the life of a person in Yerevan. Merchant, student, etc
Rami Haykal-ManningApril 30, 2016Delicious and authentic Lebanese and Armenian food. The kibbeh neyeh was on point. Get as many mezzes as possible
Serious EatsNovember 4, 2013Armenian and Lebanese food in an opulent setting. We like the small plates far more than the entrées.
Monica StangleDecember 17, 2015Great place for a professional lunch or dinner. Awesome vegan options. The food is definitely worth the price.
AmateurConciergeMarch 30, 2016I have to say it: why are the tables so high relative to the chairs?! Also, don't listen to other reviewers: the mixed grill is a differentiator. Apps are fine but on par with Mideast fast food
Rodrigo Narciso G da SilvaDecember 30, 2016Amazing hummus and taboule. Also if you like meat, the Almayass delight is delicious.
Hammam El MasriMay 24, 2018Ok this is a very nice restaurant. Simple. The food is great; kebee nayeea; mantee all were amazing.
Carmen NAugust 8, 2014Really enjoyed our Lebanese dinner. Good for big groups so you can try lots of small plates.- Bettina KMarch 18, 2017Fancy restaurant with Mediterranean cuisine. Found it during restaurant week. Would go there again.
- Esther HaddadJanuary 15, 2013Great Middle Eastern Restaurant! Ask for Lucy when making reservations! She is extremely hospitable, gracious, polite, nice, and knowledgeable!
Karina W.November 30, 2017Hummus with cauliflower, mantee with spinach and meat. Try the frog's legs.
Max PowersJune 5, 2013good food. portions are bigger than you would expect, we got too much food cause our waiter said "oh its all appetizer size".
leah chengJune 2, 2013get the mantee [under hot mezze]. smells like lasagna, scoops up like pebbles and tastes like crispy beef filled croutons. service is on the super slooow side during lunch.
Rorriz_ DhawiNovember 24, 2016The food was mediocre and I'll never ever come back again. I don't like that they charged me about 15%tip.
