Ararat Grill Bar

It was the first time we visited "Ararat". I love Armenian and Georgian cuisines, so I was very excited about this combination. For dinner, we chose khachapuri "Adjarian style" and a portion of khinkali with lamb and pork/beef. As for me, it is better to serve khinkali with lamb with fresh cilantro, not parsley, but what stole our hearts was khachapuri! I've never tasted cheesier khachapuri than this in my life! It's just incredible! The pomegranate wine was also delicious! Thanks to our waiter - Oganes for his time, good service and attentiveness! We will definitely come here again! I recommend this place :)

I'm sure you have heard of the expression dinner and a movie right? Well, how about dinner and a language lesson?Deciding to give myself an early birthday treat after a long couple of weeks, I decided to try Ararat for dinner. While they have a few outside tables, their highlight is the formal inside dining room (get reservations!) as well as the bar where I sat. The dining room has a dimly lit, classy romantic vibe. At least Friday nights, there's also a live cover band serenading the crowd with a mix of Russian, Armenian and 80s/90s US ballads. The bar seats were plush and comfortable too.Coming from casual Friday at the office, I was a little more casual. My next visit I will definitely go a little better dressed.Speaking of the bar, my server was my teacher, as she gave me the opportunity to order in Russian. All the dishes I tried were "mnogo vkuzno" Very delicious! I started with the Khinkali Dumplings, delicious pockets of pasta filled with a nicely spicy minced beef & pork with a yummy kick from the coriander and fresh black pepper. My main was a tasty and well presented Chicken Tapaka - similar to rotisserie chicken - in a cast iron pan & garnished with red onions and pomegranate and a dipping dish of a red sauce. The side of jasmine rice had good texture to accompany my meat dish. A fluffy Napoleon with creamy filling, powdered sugar and a fresh berry made for a sweet closing of my dinner.

I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Ararat Bar and Grill last weekend and, let me tell you, it was an unforgettable experience!From the moment we stepped into Ararat, the warm, inviting atmosphere set the tone for the evening. The decor, with its tasteful combination of modern and traditional elements, creates a cozy and comfortable ambiance that's just right - not too casual, but also not overly formal.The menu is a delightful fusion of traditional and contemporary dishes, and it's evident that the chef has put an incredible amount of thought into each item. We started with the eggplant rolls and lachmacu, which was a vibrant array of flavors and textures. For the main course, we had the kebab. Kebab was perfect, the appetizers were not memorable. The standout of the evening, however, was the impeccable service. The staff at Ararat were attentive and friendly, without being intrusive. They made excellent recommendations and seemed genuinely passionate about ensuring we had a great dining experience.And let's not forget the bar: it's well-stocked with an impressive selection of wines and craft beers, and the cocktails are simply out of this world.If you're looking for a place to have a great meal, relax, and be treated like a valued guest, Ararat Bar and Grill should be at the top of your list. It's a gem that truly encapsulates the essence of fine dining and warm hospitality. Can't wait to return for another round!

I hate this place. Food comes out very bland. Beer salad was ok! The Cornish Hen lacked any seasoning at $24, I expect flavor...Boo.The dill garlic fries were good. They can't make anything without onions, onions are included in everything. If like limitations for food, this is your spot.I'd only return if it were last place to dine or die!!!!!BTW, I gave it two stars because the server was cool.

Always a fun place to come on a weekend. Live band and a very festive atmosphere. The mixed kebab platter was excellent and a good deal. Enough to feed 4 people with a couple of appetizers. Good food, fair prices, fun atmosphere, and very good service.

We ordered take out. Not only they messed up our dishes and put wrong sides that we paid extra for, the food was horrible. 3 different shish kebabs were really dry and I threw them out. Did I say I paid over 100$ it?

Came to Ararat yesterday second time. The first one was a couple of years ago and I only had dessert with coffee, so didn't write a review.This time I came on a date (hence no pictures). The place was busy, but we got a table and were seated right away. There is outside and inside seating. I should point out the service. Everybody from hostesses to waiters to other people working there, everybody was super nice, genuinely friendly, and eager to help. The food was excellent but that's expected. Service was not expected to be that good We had salmon kebab, lula kebab, khachapuri, and kompot and everything was amazing. I should also point out at the portions: seriously big portions. We didn't finish anything. The restaurant has live music, I think on weekends only. Might be wrong on that one. People do dance, if you are in the mood, there is space for that. The place is fancy, do dress up. I do recommend it. It's on a plaza, so there is plenty of parking.

It was sooooooooooo good . A classy restaurant with wonderful staff. I recommend it .

Still was not contacted and apologized! Seems like business doesn't really care about ethic .

Best place in Miami, food is healthy and organic. Service is perfect. Thank you for that good time which we spent in your place.
