The Armenian Cafe

BEST MEDITERRANEAN FOOD EVER. we have dined several times at the armenian cafe and we are wondering how could anyone write such bad reviews about this establishment when their food is amazing. we tried many items on their menus, from their Chicken Kebobs to the best Lamb ever, the Rack of Lamb is to die for. their salads are so fresh and huge, OMG the garlic dip if you like Garlic. WOW! and the best is their armenian cheesecake with the shredded stuff, I never had such a dessert anywhere in my travels. Service is top notch and the Host Eddy is a Menche, what a genlemen. Their prices are moderate, very reasonable to what they offer and the Ocean View dining is just the best, large patios with outdoor heaters. they have belly dancing on the weekends, very nice too. Dont let anyone mislead you with such bad reviews I read below about this restaurant, they either are cheap or didn't get something for free. This place is a small treasure for the carlsbad community. We HIGHLY recommend this place.…

I want to be Armenian!. I love Mediterranian food and they have the best. The lamb is wonderful. Sitting outside and seeing the ocean is like taking a mini-vacation in my home town. The food is definetly worth the prices, and the entertainment on the weekends is like nothing else around north county. The service is friendly and they treat you like family. i love to "ring the bell" after a full belly =) A+ for Armenian.…

Bad restaurant and bad food. I went to the Armenian Cafe for 2008 mother's day. The food was lousy and the host Eddy was rude. The price was way too much for the quality of food. In the end Mr. Eddy found a way to overcharge me by charging for an extra dish we did not order. I requested him to check but he will not listen. Overall, it was a bad experience. I will recommend everyone to stay away from this restaurant. I paid nearly $120 for lunch for 4 with no drink - just food and that too very poor quality food. I rate this restaurant 0 star.…

Worst Restaurant in Carlsbad. I decided to try the restaurant again after a long absence. It's even worse than before!! A real tourist trap..food is awful, overseasoned and over cooked in typical "Mexicans in the Kitchen" fashion. I had the lamb kabab. The menu states, "No one makes lamb like us!" YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN! I wanted to heave!! When I told the waiter how awful my meal was, he did nothing.

North County has the worst collection of restaurants I have ever experienced. This one takes the prize for the worst.…
