On Friday, October 4th, we were in Tsakhkadzor in a large group and visited your restaurant "Caucasian Captive". Outwardly, he impressed us very much. But the interior of the beautiful restaurant did not match the service and taste
qualities of your menu in any way. Firstly, everything
on the table was heavily salted, and
your arisa burned out so that, although
many reluctantly ate because they were
hungry, but some of me could not
eat. So think about how to greet
guests so that everyone is comfortable and that they have the desire to visit this restaurant again to enjoy your food.
The situation inside is in the theme of the film of the same name and this is one of the advantages.
The attitude surprised me.
We didn't book tables in advance and when we arrived, we said that everything was busy and we had to wait an hour, maybe 40 minutes. They refused to record for a certain time and said that the queue was alive, although there was no one else in the queue there)
When 3 people came out after 10 minutes, we were told that the table would be cleared in 5 minutes and it would be possible to enter. During this time, no one else came out and so we were shown to a distant hall, in which another table was occupied besides us and the rest of the seats were ALL free. Then we are obsessively offered dishes from the menu and drinks, especially the signature fruit tea, which turns out to be a very sweet hot compote with feijoa.
The salad with cheese and vegetables is sooo spicy. They asked to bring water and it turned out to be only warm…
Some of the dishes from the menu were missing.
At the end, we were told that tips were very much expected, since they were not included in the bill, and they did not give us a check. In the toilet, the cleaner shouted that the papers should be thrown into a certain trash can, and not into any one..
Maybe it was just the wrong day.…
But we did not experience universal delight from the institution

We are in love and definitely recommend it! What a themed flavor, what an excellent and, most importantly, practically free kitchen! Cognac, of course, is Armenian, on trial, as a compliment. Every 30 minutes there is a dance performance based on the content of the work of the same name. Unusual design inside, just gorgeous. Full-length figures of all the characters from the movie, a sea of photo zones with them! I really, really liked it!
A wonderful cafe with national cuisine. For tourists, that's what you need. Fast service at the highest level. Live music is playing, the interior corresponds to the name. 👍 I really liked it, I recommend you to visit
Beautiful surroundings, that's all. The food is for 3+, the lamb kebab is dry, overcooked, as if it had been reheated several times, the portions are small, the wine is warm. We came on the recommendation of friends, not impressed.
She visited the Caucasian Captive restaurant in Yerevan on March 27, 2024. I am from Ashgabat, I am on a business trip to Armenia. The impression is indelible. Gorgeous decoration, beautiful surroundings, all the characters and their winged expressions from the famous film are present everywhere: on the walls, on the tables...Gorgeous kitchen! Delicious dishes. The service is simply excellent. We were served by a wonderful waiter, Gevorg, who talked interestingly about every dish and drink we ordered. I am very excited about this restaurant and recommend it to everyone! The director of the restaurant is a charming man, paid attention to us and willingly agreed to take a picture with our cheerful company.
In general, Yerevan has very pleasant and friendly people. I am in love with Yerevan. I recommend it to everyone: be sure to visit this chic restaurant. I give you 5 stars!
The most beautiful restaurant I've been to, the interior, the atmosphere is so atmospheric, these cool phrases and very, very tasty food, I'm really delighted, the prices are reasonable, very, very cool and delicious, there are no words, only emotions, I'm in love with this restaurant🌹🌹🌹
Yesterday, July 7th, I went to your restaurant with my friends.
The girls greeted us warmly at the entrance.
But I would like to mention separately the service of the waiter Shiraz.
The attitude towards each of us was very respectful.
He listened patiently to our orders, suggested what could be ordered...
professionalism and a desire to make visitors enjoy themselves are visible.
Thank you for such employees who try to seek the benefit of visitors.
Prosperity to your business.
Sincerely, Elena.
A wonderful concept restaurant! Every corner of the hall is inspired by the movie! There is a dance show every 20 minutes. We found Armenian dances, Russian and Georgian dances. The kitchen is also on top!
The chic kitchen is delicious and convenient for children, and the atmosphere is very interesting
Affordable wine prices the choice is very affordable the location is convenient
The city center
The staff is kind
Excellent food, excellent service, the atmosphere is beyond praise. The interior is a separate story - everything is saturated with film, quotes, photographs. In general, we are satisfied!
Delicious cuisine, excellent service, competent friendly staff! The live music was impressive, the pianist simply masterfully selected any composition! It's a great place.
I am a guest from St. Petersburg, in your beautiful city of Yerevan. It's not the first day, I want to come to your place for lunch or dinner… But when your people find out that there will be one person, they immediately say that there are no tables. I live in the next house, I called in advance, said I would be alone, can I come up within 10 minutes?
I was told YES!
I came, they told me to come down. A woman meets me, I tell her, I'll be alone. Her expression changes and she doesn't quite answer, "Didn't they tell you that there are no tables for one person?"
Caucasian Captive, what can I do? Should I call you and tell you that there will be 5 people? To be allowed to have lunch with you?
It's terrible!!!
There is a Sherep restaurant nearby.
I have lunch and dinner there every night, great cuisine, smiling staff, also a full fit! And there are never such problems…
Your staff needs to learn more from them…
Disappointed! The mood was ruined! I will never come to you again and recommend you to my friends.
We didn't see anything unusual in this restaurant, except for the design. We were served by a waiter who obviously doesn't like Russians very much. I did not change dirty plates, did not take away empty dishes, I had to wait a very long time for drinks and after 20 minutes of waiting I looked for a waiter in the hall and asked to bring a drink, only after that he brought it. The flower vase was brought from the 5th request. The dishes were mostly taken out by other waiters, because there was a clear negative feeling in our direction. It was noticeable how the other tables where the Armenians were sitting were served. It was a birthday, the waiter knew about it, they told him and it was unpleasant when there were congratulations at other tables on behalf of the restaurant, but we were not there. Also, to make an order, we waited for the waiter for 30 minutes. Khinkali can only be ordered from 5 pieces of the same type, for the first time I meet such nonsense. In general, if you want to sit in the atmosphere of a Caucasian prisoner and feel a negative attitude towards Russians, then you can safely go here. The food is not as tasty as we would like. The wine generally gave a sugary sediment. Even the administrator, answering our question why there was sediment in the wine, made it clear that these were our problems, that we finished the bottle to the end, and did not leave half a bottle of wine. I also want to note that the waiter does not even know what grapes the wine they sell in their restaurant is made from and did not even show interest to go to the bar and find out.
A chic and budget-friendly place. I highly recommend it. But it's not big and you either have to book in advance or be ready to wait or leave with nothing)
A very pleasant restaurant. We were here with friends in a big company.
All the dishes of the local (Armenian) cuisine are excellent, I especially recommend trying the sterlet on the coals here.
Also, sangria did not leave anyone indifferent.
The restaurant is very popular (not surprisingly), so I recommend booking a table in advance even on weekdays.
The entourage of the restaurant will plunge you into the sentimental past.
The prices bite, but correspond to the level of the restaurant.
The prices are not the lowest. The menu is varied. After visiting various cafes and restaurants, the price and quality are average. The staff is great, friendly! The atmosphere - I can't say for me, I think for a fan of Gaidai's films.
We were in Yerevan, we found the restaurant passing by. We were fed, watered, danced. Everything is very good. Fast service, despite the busy restaurant. Everything is very tasty and beautiful!
We definitely recommend it
- Definitely delicious 😋 + Local cuisine. There are plenty to choose from from the menu. By the way, it is available in different languages (we, tourists, were offered both in Russian and English).
- Clean, including the hall and bathroom
- Polite and tidy staff
- The style of the establishment. We were greeted by an attractive employee with a square hairstyle like Nina's from the movie, so my imagination ran wild from the threshold. A cozy interior with good furniture, where even full-length dolls fit in. It's not a shame to take a photo for memory, so to speak 🤗
- Live music won my heart ❤ ❤ ❤
- There are places for a big fun company (by the way, there are dishes for a big company on the menu), and for couples (a good place for dating, we did it that way).
- Prices (for July 2023) are normal. I also consider it an important criterion
- There is Wi-Fi
The cafe is stylized as a movie, characters, performances with songs and dances. The menu is varied, quite expensive (as in other things and everywhere in Armenia). In general, a pleasant place to visit is not far from Republic Square
The restaurant is very atmospheric, cozy, the food is delicious, from the heart. But twice I got to the waiter, a man with slightly gray hair, and because of his service, I honestly lose the desire to visit this institution. The waiter was completely uninterested, slow, deaf, as it seemed. He didn't even smile at my thanks and didn't answer "please." I'm lowering the star for this
Great place! They served it quickly, the salad was served in 2 minutes, they said how many khinkali and they brought it on time! The waiters are very friendly, as are all the staff
And it was very tasty
And it's beautiful
Thanks
A very atmospheric restaurant in the center of Yerevan. Just a couple of minutes from Republic Square. If you want to visit, keep in mind that it is unlikely that you will get into it right away, we signed up in advance, five days in advance. A huge variety of dishes, with a full load of the hall, the food was brought quickly. It was delicious.
I came in with the kids. After a long walk, we decided to have dinner. A young guy came up (it's a pity that I didn't specify the name), accepted the order, clarified our order again and left. Half an hour later, khinkali was brought for my son, wings for my daughter, two Caesar salads, and I'm waiting for my barbecue. I decided to ask the same agent: How much longer to wait? He replied that in a few more minutes she would be ready. Another 10 minutes pass, he comes up to me and asks: What did you order? I say SHISH KEBAB, and he brazenly tells me- but I didn't mark it, and raises his shoulders instead of apologizing. I say that you accepted the order, I remember that. He didn't react, he raised his shoulders, like it was also my fault. Ruined my day and mood. I really regret that I did not contact the manager.
The kitchen is amazing! Recommended by a friend, I will recommend to friends! A large selection of dishes and everything is delicious! It is located in the center of Yerevan with a nice, warm atmosphere. Russian, Armenian, and Georgian music sounds. The staff is attentive.
I've been going to the restaurant since 2015, often, and it's always been very tasty, but not everything lasts forever.
The last visit last week left bad impressions: khachapuri in Ajarian was brought in 50 minutes, the only dish of one of the three guests, the other two guests were served hot dishes earlier, but also at different times - my husband managed to finish before they served me khinkali.
If before we always chose as a welcoming place to meet with friends and have a delicious feast, now, alas, we will neither go ourselves nor recommend it.
One star for the interior. That's where the advantages ended.
Go:
1) very hot, stuffy, very bright light
2) they put you at the table in silence, so, they say, sit down
3) the waiter came up only after 15 minutes
4) when taking an order, the waiter was distracted by calls and phone messages, asked several times what we wanted to order
5) the drinks were brought quickly, but silently, the food was carried for 20 minutes
6) when the food was brought, they silently threw it (!) on the table and left. They did not explain what they brought, to whom they brought it.
7) the food turned out to be very bland and tasteless, although I'm not particularly picky about food, everything we ordered turned out to be very tasteless, disgusting, and even nauseated
8) at the end, we asked for the bill, the waiter brought the bill and said that tips were not included in the bill, although 10% was written on the receipt, he says he does not know why they write this and to whom this money goes. I lied. There are restaurants in Armenia where 10% is initially included in the receipt and they write it in the receipt, and there are restaurants where it is not included in the receipt. This is very disgusting on the part of the restaurant managers. Shame.
In general, I really do not recommend visiting this restaurant. You can go in, take a picture and feel free to go to another restaurant, fortunately in Armenia, and in Yerevan in particular, there is a place to eat delicious food.
Great place. We celebrated a birthday here. All the dishes are delicious, the staff is polite. If you celebrate a birthday, then there is a 20% discount, though you need to buy a cake from them. The cake is not big and costs 13,000, so if you do not have a check for a large amount, think about whether it is worth taking. But these are small things, the main thing is that the atmosphere and the quality of the food is excellent
A very colorful place.
Interior in the style of fmlma.
The dishes are large, a lot of meat.
You need to book a table in advance, even during the day. We were at lunch, the tables were almost all occupied.
The prices are not high. On 3, lunch without alcohol rose by 15 thousand drams: bean soup, dolma, khachapuri, khinkali 6 pieces, Kiev cutlet with mashed potatoes, tea.
It's a cool place, a lot of halls, if you want to keep it quiet, you can ask not to go to the main hall. During the visit, dancers performed national dances in the main hall. The menu is varied, the food is delicious. Customer orientation is bad. We sat in the hall for 10 minutes, waiting for the receptionist to take us to the tables, the waitress was also not particularly friendly. Like only the girl at the reception. Book tables in advance
I ordered such noodles with beef, at first it was delicious, but in the end it was impossible to eat because of the huge amount of salt.
Branded cocktails in honor of the heroes of the film are a complete mess. The price is horse-drawn, while half of the cocktail is an ice ball, alcohol is almost not felt. But it's still delicious, it's a disease)))) Take it at your own risk. The menu is extensive, while there is no Whitefish (local, delicious).
The cradle was made quickly)
In short, the place is more likely to take pictures than to eat

We have been to this restaurant several times. Excellent cuisine, good service, interesting concept. The establishment is mainly designed for tourists. Convenient location and good music.
The entourage of the film of the same name. The prices are high, but do not forget that the establishment is located on the central street of Yerevan. Tips are included in the light.
The interior is cool, everything is very atmospheric. The kitchen is super, it was delicious. For me, there is only one minus - there is no customer orientation. For example, when we left the establishment, we said goodbye to the staff several times, namely the administrator, the waiter, the girl at the reception, but no one except the cloakroom attendant who wished us a good day, paid no attention to us. They went out into the street without feeling needed by the institution, like customers. Apparently not up to it at all, almost all the tables were occupied. There are a lot of customers, and that's how it goes.
We rested with friends, waited for the menu for more than 20 minutes, the food was even more, although the hall was not completely packed, the waiter did not bring everything that was ordered, the entourage was very inspiring at first, but then when they started serving, he did not save, they were very disappointed, the salads were said, the breast was overcooked and it was even hard to chew, it's hard to get in, it's easy to leave))) the service was included in the bill, which by the way was just 👎👎👎, I don't know if we were so unlucky, or actually it's always like this here, but it's very sad, the administrator is a nice girl, tried to solve the problem, but did not solve it, eventually left disappointed, This is the first time we have come across such a service in Yerevan…
I recommend it to everyone who travels in Armenia! The assortment includes the main delicious dishes of Caucasian cuisine.
A thematic entourage with the main characters of the beloved film of the same name. In the evening, incendiary national dances.
The atmosphere is not oppressive - it is comfortable.
There are separate cozy cabins available.
Important note - it is better to book places the day before!!!
Absolutely everything! Delicious food, polite staff, stunning atmosphere, appropriate interior,good meat, delicious music and dancing in the theme, I liked the drinks! Thank you! I always advise all my friends to visit it, there were no dissatisfied people..Everyone is delighted!
It's very weak, the food is just not good, and the prices are like in a good restaurant. I do not recommend it categorically! It's a pity for the money and time spent, except for the entourage, nothing good.
A great restaurant! Everything is wonderful - the kitchen, interior, service, live music and national dances! A place where you can really mess around, especially if the waiter is on his own!
