You must be thinking, “What? Armenian food in Delhi?” You heard it right. Lavaash serves first-rate, authentic Armenian cuisine which you would rarely find anywhere else. Not just that, the cuisine has been infused with elements of Bengali cuisine, which truly makes for a unique dining experience.
Located on the Kalka Das Marg in Mehrauli, Lavaash manages to charm you the moment you step inside. The other-worldly atmosphere of the place will instantly raise your spirits.
Enlivening Persian-Mediterranean, two-storey space with chromatic walls and vivid tiles, the decor is dominated by a peacock theme. Its beautiful indoor seating can comfortably seat upto 22 people. For those who like open spaces, balcony seating is available as well. Also, the terrace has a breathtaking view of the Qutub Minar.
This magnificent restaurant also tells you about the journey of the chef. Chef Megha met Armenians residing in Bengal, learnt their culture and recipes, and intermixed that with Bengali style. This personal touch makes the dining experience at Lavaash an even more rewarding experience.
And now the most important part: the heavenly food! Their choices of crispy lavaash pizzas, especially the spiced chicken lavaash pizza, was just too good to be true. The thin crust allows you to fully enjoy the toppings.

The Armenian mezze platter, from its presentation to its taste, gets a 10/10 from us. But we have to be honest, they could’ve been more generous with the portions.

If you’re a big cheese fan, they also serve the Imperial Calcutta Cheese Platter, which is an assortment of cheeses you’ve probably never heard of before (unless you’re from Calcutta): Smoked bandel, Kalimpong and more!
