Don't come here, it's the worst place in town, really. How tourists come here is a mystery, but regularly someone comes to them, then they get poisoned, then they spend a lot of money for tasteless things. There are a lot of decent places for every taste nearby, ten steps in any direction.
It's very difficult to get into a restaurant! But the wait is worth it! Wonderful cuisine, cheerful atmosphere! We went in the morning and were fed .... I highly recommend it!
A wonderful and varied menu with local and Georgian cuisine. Cinematic interior based on the film of the same name.
A light relaxed atmosphere, the waiting time is average for restaurants of this level. I definitely recommend it
We went to the institution when we arrived from Moscow for Sevak's concert. A very colorful place, figures of characters from the Caucasian captive are everywhere, there is a place to take pictures, there were also dances, they could not resist, they also danced. With regard to food and service, everything is fine, delicious, high-quality, fast and surprisingly NOT EXPENSIVE! In Moscow, for such portions (I mean the size, you definitely can't find such a taste, in Armenia the food culture is completely different, the quality is in the first place) they would pay 3 times more expensive. Well, what can I say, cognac is of course also beautiful and cannot be compared with Moscow in terms of cost. If we are still in Armenia, we will definitely come to this restaurant.
We have been to Yerevan several times, we definitely visit the Caucasian captive! The atmosphere of the Internet immerses you in the film. Everything is very tasty cooked. You just need to make an appointment in advance, otherwise you won't find a place to sit down.

They praised us, but it would be better not to come here at all. The menu does not understand what it is and what it is made of. The food itself is not delicious. It turned out to be more expensive for money than in restaurants nearby. Thank you, at least the air conditioner was turned off, which was already blowing away. I don't put 1 for this.
One of the best restaurants in Yerevan. The food is just aerobatics. The service is excellent. It's a very atmospheric place. Everything is in the style of a Caucasian captive. I strongly advise you to visit.
A very good place, with a certain entourage and an atmosphere that everyone will like. You can't get in without booking in the evening, the popularity of this cafe is at a good level. The only thing that upset me was the very salty meat. In principle, there are fans of this, but if you like dishes with less salt, warn the waiters about it

insanely delicious cuisine, absolutely liked everything: from the unique surroundings to the food and service. I think this place is a must-visit in Yerevan
The food and drinks were amazing. I especially liked the cocktail "Yerevan history". but the portions there are huge (it seems to me, even by the standards of Yerevan).
The interior is 5+, however, as well as the menu and service!
The speed of serving dishes is impressive. Everything is very tasty!
We celebrated the anniversary of the spouse, a nice bonus discount to the namesake
Special thanks to waiter Vartan.
The food is for 4 people, the program is good, the theme of the rest is interesting, I expected more

A stylized tavern for the famous movie. That's probably where the advantages end. You meet a girl who at first says that there are no seats, there is no reservation either. Then, that the table would be in 10 minutes and in a minute we were already being led to the table. Well, OK, let's be happy with our luck. But it's early. We ordered fish, veal heart, dogwood pomegranate lemonade (one ice). At the end, the waiter asks if you liked everything. I said that the fish seemed too salty to me. To which I received the answer that it seemed to me! And everything is delicious! Then why ask?
Yes, a beautiful and atmospheric restaurant. They dance every 15 minutes :) but the main thing in the restaurant is the service and the food. The service was terrible. I had to beg for a child's chair and wait. The waiter was always looked for and waited for. We ordered lula, mutton, kupaty and potatoes on the grill. Burnt food is not acceptable for a restaurant!!!! It is not possible to eat kupaty at all, the mutton is over-dried. Therefore, we got only visual pleasure:(((
It was 9.01.22
The impressions are such that I do NOT recommend the restaurant to ANYONE
There is something to compare it with. We were in Sizns, Sherep, Casa Nostra, Tuxedo Chef, Katsin, Lavash, Asador.
We booked a table by phone right away. They said they would put us in a separate room.
As a result, they were seated in the center of the hall with other guests, where the distance between the tables is 40 cm. And you sit and hear what strangers are talking about. Despite the fact that the tables were empty on the sides.
In general, the restaurant is 40% full, but for some reason the hostess artificially creates a stir. There are no seats, they tell the guests at the top, while there are many empty tables in the hall.
Perhaps because 80% of the tables are for 8 people and they do not want to put small companies behind them.
The waiter served quickly, there are no complaints. The black-haired Hostess with big eyes and eyelashes was friendly, but the second
one with red hair was not quite talking to both us and the visitors.
We all ordered a barbecue, hoping to have a delicious meal. As a result, the lamb, veal and pork were not tasty. With such a strange taste, as if this meat is not fresh and it has been soaked in something for a long time to remove the unpleasant taste.
I didn't like the summer salad with plastic vegetables
The chicken soup was more or less.
The hodgepodge tastes normal.
The interior is outdated, the design of seaside cafes is not for the whimsical public. Trolleys on the ceiling, hanging onions, grapes mixed with mannequins from the movie. The idea is interesting, but tastelessly executed.
Dancing every 15 minutes. Mediocre out of 4 dancers, only one can dance. The dancers are not visible to the guests who are sitting in the center of the hall, behind a huge installation of a fragment from a movie. I had to get up to look at it. What's so interesting there. As a result, it's not interesting))
The most unpleasant thing. We lost my winter hat in the wardrobe. Despite the fact that they have a small one. They took the number to call back when they found it, and of course they didn't call back.
They came again, asked for a hat on the same day, but again there was nothing.
I don't understand who needs it?!
As a result, I searched for something similar in Yerevan stores for two days. And by the way, it's winter outside. And it's pretty cold on excursions without a hat in -7.
In general, I do not recommend the restaurant. The kitchen is not tasty, the guests are deceived by creating a rush of fullness in the hall. + they did not return the lost item and did not even call back, although they promised.
I attached the entire design of the cafe to the review so that I could not be upset that I did not see the design.
The place corresponds to the name, everything is in the style of the film, for some reason they said that we only have an hour in time , I did not understand , perhaps there are few places , there are no questions about the kitchen , it's delicious ,
One of the favorite places in the city, very tasty dishes, reasonable prices, high speed and excellent service. It is worth noting, of course, the cool interior and atmosphere! We bring all our friends here first.
The restaurant is top! The food, service and especially the interior are just 5 out of 5. Thank you for your hospitality - we will return more than once 🫶🏻
A pleasant and very sincere place, the feed rate is at the highest level. The prices are also reasonable for the central part of Yerevan. Every time we come to Yerevan with our colleagues, we always visit.
I ate well, the portions were large, and I took them with me.

Much has already been said about this place. It's very cozy, delicious, and the service is excellent. It should be borne in mind that the portions are huge. The prices correspond to the level and location. It is worth visiting at least once. There are traditionally no seats, it is better to book in advance, otherwise you can spend a lot of time in line.
A very good place, very tasty, the interior according to the film) the atmosphere is pleasant, the price tag is also pleasant. The waiting time is within reasonable limits. On Fridays and weekends, there is usually a full boarding, it is better to book tables in advance
To say that I'm in shock, nothing to say! We were at this restaurant today. We were put in a Banquet hall, where music was periodically turned on at such a volume as in a nightclub, where you couldn't hear each other when talking and it hurt your hearing 🙈
They brought stuffed eggplants, where there were two long hairs inside, which stretched out after I took a bite. The waiter asked for forgiveness, and the receptionist, who came to find out the problem of refusing the dish, came up with a questioning look and said: "it's strange... only guys work in our kitchen."
Just a minute.☝️Instead of mitigating the situation, we were also hinted that...? (Is that our hair???) with a kind of favor: "well, we'll deduct from the bill"... she left.
I set the service level to 0. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT!!!
We went in-very atmospheric, ordered a hodgepodge, khachapuri and assorted kebabs, the waitress took the order as if we were enemies....we waited a very long time, brought greens, poorly washed and little, solyanka, delicious, well, we think okay, khachapuri too, but when they brought shish kebab, it was darkness, the liver was dry and old, the rest, as if they were deep-fried, overcooked, meat and grilled vegetables were cold, no sauce was served when they said that the barbecue was cold, she took the meat with her hand and touched it-well, they say it's cold, I'll warm it up right now .....as a result, they wrote to the complaint book, they really asked not to do this (04/5.23), paid and left, of course they did not eat anything ..... once again they made sure that I have to go eat at the Lavash-a super restaurant.....
great interior, but the neck kebab is 50% bone. it turns out that there is no meat without a bone, the waiter began to prove. even took my neck as an example))
It's a great place. There are a lot of places in Yerevan where you can eat delicious food. But it is also very beautiful, convenient location and excellent staff. The kitchen and service are at the highest level.
It's a little stuffy. For the basement. It's a little loud. Because a Georgian restaurant in Armenia is unusual. Guests celebrate birthdays. They dance for them. They sing. All this is loud and annoying if you want to eat.
The Khinkali was not bad. Satsivi are not from Moscow ! Bones are detected. Remember that Georgian satsivi are not satsivi from Elarji or Ojakhuri.
In general, you can go for impressions, but I would leave this restaurant for tourist groups. It is impossible to eat in peace :(

For the first time, we came to this institution on the recommendation of a friend. We didn't book a table in advance, we came at lunch, on a weekday. The hall was half empty, we were immediately taken to a table and everything was wonderful! Fast service, polite waiters, good music and atmosphere. The food was also delicious and fresh. I especially liked dolma.
The second time, we specially took a taxi from the airport to come to the center and taste this wonderful dolma while waiting for the next flight. And what was our surprise when at the reception another young lady, with the face of a sullen librarian, without saying "Hello" or "Welcome" to us, immediately gave out: "Have you booked a table?". We replied that we had not booked, as we were passing through Yerevan and not for a long time, to which she said threateningly: "There are no places." That was the end of the conversation. No one warned us in advance that it was necessary to book a table, since there is a huge (!) number of seats in this institution. Besides, it wasn't an evening or a holiday. Well, anyway, we decided that they had an emergency on the weekend and went to another restaurant nearby.
For the third time, I decided to try my luck alone. And also, having arrived in Yerevan for the purpose of transit, I took a taxi from the airport and immediately went to this "wonderful" institution. It's 10:30 a.m., Saturday. I, in full confidence that the huge restaurant could not be filled so early, arrived and was disappointed again. This time, I was greeted by an even more unfriendly aunt. And she asked for the phrase on duty. When I replied that I had not made a reservation, she said that they had no seats, everything was booked. I asked, completely at a loss, how could it be that all the tables were occupied? It's morning! There are seats for two banquets! I was hungry, tired, and had been on the road for 10 hours. And I came especially for this place! I even changed the currency for drams just for the sake of this damned dolma. And I didn't want to just leave. I said that I hadn't come for a long time at all, just to have lunch and I'd be leaving in half an hour. But this lady, in the same disgusting tone, said: "Now people will come and eat hash." I knew perfectly well that this was a lie. It was such an annoying moment that my appetite disappeared instantly.
I sat down on the sofa near the entrance, as it was cold outside, and began to look for other options. Literally 5 minutes later, the waiter (or the administrator) got up from the hall and invited me to go to a table. I was surprised and asked again, is he for me? To which I received an affirmative answer and permission to go through the hall 😂
But with such a "hospitable" beginning, the desire disappeared. Therefore, I politely declined. It's not necessary anymore… And don't set foot in the Caucasian captive anymore! So, think for yourself.
Our impression is irretrievably spoiled by such a negligent and arrogant attitude of the staff.
