Whether you are familiar with Armenian (or middle eastern) cuisine or never tried it, this is a great restaurant to eat at. It is a traditional home style restaurant lacking the often obnoxious trendiness found in many of the resto-bars in the surrounding Palermo Soho area. This is a good thing, as the focus is on the food and you leaving full and happy vs “style”, which is all so common now. The food was excellent across the board. From taste to texture, it was delicious with nothing off balance. No dish was served with maybe a bit too much of something, which is odd considering the particularities of the Argentinian palate. Everything was so good that it would be hard to make a recommendation say between the lamb kafta and raw keppe or the Armenian cheese and tabouleh. The hummus would have been the one to omit but simply because it was the most basic. That being said, this is an ideal spot to go with easy going friends and family so that you can sample a wider array of dishes, which I hope to do more of in the near future. Vegetarians (and I believe vegans) need not fear the menu as well. There are plenty of options that should make either very happy including what has been reputed to be a most excellent falafel (which I will try next visit). Our waiter, Daniel, was attentive and gave us excellent recommendations for dishes (including portion size) and wine (Piatteli Malbec reserve from Salta was a very nice pairing). In the end, we left very full and happy. We will be back!

As soon as I arrived in Buenos Aires, almost 4 people recommended Sarkis - and I am now recommending it to everyone myself ✨ It was an amazing place to have dinner, with delicious food. I loved getting to really know and enjoy Armenian cuisine. I visited twice with different people and tried as many options as I could - I don’t think there was a single dish on the menu that could disappoint; everything was super tasty, well-prepared, and it felt as though it was made with love and respect for Armenian culture. If you want to read more about my experiences, here are some descriptions: I tried the "Keppe de papa" (Potato Keppe) (AR$2800) - my favorite dish #1 - which tasted great with a lemony flavor. I also had the Veggie Musaka (o Musaka Vegetariano) (AR$8500) (eggplant pie with nuts, mozzarella, red sauce, and parmesan), which was an amazing dish - my favorite dish #2. On another visit, I tried the "Brembule" (AR$2500) (smoked eggplant, tomato, garlic, and nuts marinated in lemon), the "Berenjenas fritas a la Provenzal" (AR$2500) (aubergines fried in Provençal style), which was good, and finally, the Falafel (AR$7200), another incredibly well-done option on their menu and my favorite dish #3! Finally, I think one of the most delicious desserts I’ve tried in a long, long time is the Deditos (AR$3000) (rolls with nuts and syrup). The people were friendly, the service was fast, and I will definitely recommend it and visit many more times! (Prices are from February 2024)

t’s a traditional armenian restaurant. We went to there nearly 9pm, and were seated at 10:45pm. I knew that the wait was long because I didn’t do a reservation, so we waited patiently because we had this place in our bucket list for a bit of time. First picture is falafel, with a yogurt sauce. Second picture is hummus. Third picture is hoja de Parra. Forth picture is raw kibbeh and the last picture is tabule. Every plate was delectable, their taste were as we were eating in the Middle East and not in Argentina, very authentic. The sizes of the plates were good to share and to try on different dishes as well, and the prices were good knowing the quality of every dish. They served the food pretty fast which is incredible and understandable because we waited an hour and a half to eat. We ordered a lot of food this time, but we could took it home, and had it for lunch. The waiter gave us a recommendation on how to preheat the falafels, it could be on the pan or on the oven but not to use the microwave, and it was as fresh as in the restaurant. This place is a 10 out of 10. If you go there you may know that you gotta be patient, but if you don’t want to wait you can do a reservation with a week of anticipation.

An excellent venue for any palate! Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options as well as for people who love carne. There was even a diabetic dessert option. We enjoyed three appetizers which were zucchini stuffed with a savory meat and rice, a puréed aubergine à la baba ganoush with a slight peanut flavor, garnished with fresh herbs and olive oil, and a plate of green beans à la provençal sauce. This was made from the large flat beans from inside of the local, long, flat beans cooked perfectly al dente and served cold in a flavorful, herbed, olive oil. For the entrée we shared the Moussaka and a delicious ground lamb kebab in a bed of fresh, herbed onions. With our meal we also enjoyed a bottle of 2018 Malbec by Alaris, which was only $6-USD. The entire bill was 1130 pesos, which included the house fee of 30 pesos each. In current USD the entire meal converted to $29.74, a great price for the quality and amount of food! The restaurant is large and constantly packed from opening to closing. Come 10 minutes before opening and put your name on the list at the door or wait up to an hour for a table.

It was okay, but I didn’t love it. The service was the slowest/poorest in Argentina so far. The Babaghanoush was good, but the rest was average. The chicken was well cooked but lacked flavour and seasoning, and the yogurt sauce was also disappointingly kinda bland. The vine leaves which were also so highly recommended by others I thought were average at best. The real let down though was the service. I know it’s generally bad and slow everywhere in Argentina but this place wins for worst ever. The waiter brought us the wrong wine and forgot our water completely despite us asking for it twice. At the end of the meal we had to ask for our bill four times before they finally brought it to us having been waiting for 30 minutes, and then they disappeared with the card for an eternity. At no point did anyone even say ‘oh sorry’ when we pointed out the errors / the fact we were still waiting, they just seemed inconvenienced but the fact that we had dared to ask again. Kinda let the whole experience down, especially considering this is not a cheap place.
