Very Nice Place - Great Food and Entertainment
by citylover2
This place is fun to go. The food is very generous and good. The entertainment is fun. You can sit and enjoy your dinner and watch others dancing or when the Belly Dancers start performinng. The service is great. here is a flat charge- which includes a wonderful Armenian Style dinner - where everything is on the table with good portions or you can order from the menu. We really enjoyed the place and the price is great in comparison to other restaurants with entertainment.
- Pros: Fun to go there! You can dance all night!!!

YUM
by scotchduck
Delicious, tasty food that is not expensive. Yes, the decor is not so great (not a place to impress a date), but the food is awesome. No corkage fee either :) Love, love it. We love to go with friends & order many of the appetiser dishes to share. Wish I was there right now....
- Pros: DELICIOUS!
- Cons: Decor is not so great...

Know Before You Go:
This locale sells no liquor, so bring your own bottle of wine (no hard liquor or beer, please)--there's no corkage fee.
Parking:
The free onsite lot usually has available spots right in front of the restaurant.
The Extras:
While folks at this casual Hollywood outpost can show up dishabille, for a more formal (and pricier) experience, visit the spacious sister location in Glendale featuring belly dancers, live music and plenty of people watching every Friday and Saturday night.
