I’ve stumbled upon this place accidentally, while walking around the city. It was lunch time, and there were no customers, which seemed concerning. The waiter was nice and very polite. I was really impressed by the quality of all items. To me it felt like a fine dining experience, plus it was in the outdoor setting in a secluded and peaceful location. I would definitely go back next time I’m there.
The restaurant is excellent, the dishes are unusual and very tasty. Special thanks to the staff: all wishes were taken into account (we celebrated a birthday). It is also worth noting the vocals of the performer. Be sure to visit this wonderful place.
I was invited to Jeevan's restaurant, the show program, dancing and live music were amazing, and that's it! The kitchen with its price tag left much to be desired, the salad was like Caesar, there was grass and cheese on top, and the lamb was just disgusting! All the tables were treated to their donut, but they forgot about us, apparently our table was not profitable) for two 30,000 lrams and plus for admission! If someone likes to dance, then you can
All previous visits to Yerevan have necessarily included a trip to this restaurant. And more than one. I always gave top marks. I'm not going anymore. The menu has changed, the cook has changed. Instead of Kiev-style cutlets, they brought breadcrumbs. A sticky mashed potato. Halibut, which is basically fatty fish, has managed to over-dry. There was an undercooked carrot in the ear. Everything except the fish soup was cold and all the dishes were served at the same time. In a good way, "2", but for the memories he threw.

Hello everyone Everyone should definitely visit the Jivan restaurant at least once.
The service is top-notch, the kitchen is very tasty, everything is very nice and clean! I definitely advise you!) ❤️ I'll leave a photo of the dessert! We didn't have time to take a picture of everything else! But it was insanely delicious 😍
I don't understand why there are so many bad reviews. It's a beautiful place. With good music. The staff is young and friendly and kind. It's delicious and the price is not as expensive as many people here write. The same as in all restaurants in Yerevan. I liked. I wish you wonderful guests and continued prosperity.
I liked the restaurant "Jivani", I participated in the Greek evening, it was very pleasant, we had a great time. The only disadvantage was that the place was small.
A chic restaurant. We were sitting outside on the summer terrace, where the interior is quite simple, but if you want a classic restaurant look, then book a table inside.
All the food was delicious: Yerevan vegetable salad with pepper sauce with just incredible tomatoes, beef cheeks with mashed potatoes and adjika (I didn't have enough sharpness here, but it was so delicious that I didn't ask for anything), very tasty bread in a bread basket.
Dessert "Duduk" was taken on the recommendation of our waiter without studying the composition. I don't usually like chocolate ice cream, but this time, it seems, I fell in love for the first time.
The service is on the level, the speed of delivery corresponds to the speed of food consumption by guests.
The JIVAN restaurant is the real embodiment of refined taste and a cozy atmosphere. The service is top-notch, the staff is friendly and attentive. The dishes are excellent both in taste and design. A great place for a cozy dinner with your family or a romantic evening. I recommend this restaurant to everyone!
The place is great, the dolma is weak, or rather very weak, the kebab unfortunately too.
The service is good, the kitchen is weak. Although dolma is considered the hallmark of Armenian cuisine.
I would like to express my gratitude to the Chef, waiters and all the staff of the Jivan restaurant for the exquisite and most delicious dishes, as well as for the responsiveness and magical atmosphere. We celebrated our wedding anniversary with my wife. Everything went great, my wife and I are delighted.
In general, it's fine, you just expect something big for such a price. As for a restaurant, the food is average, the atmosphere is too, yes, go once, but there is nothing interesting.
The restaurant is located in the courtyard of the hotel, and sports matches are shown on the big screen in the evenings. The waiters are nimble, the food is delicious. Yes, everything is delicious everywhere in Yerevan!))
Very tasty cuisine and good service! We were at two thematic events and despite the full landing, we were served very quickly!
The cuisine in this restaurant is beyond praise! The program at the events is very interesting! Bravo! Everything is thought out to the smallest detail!
I now recommend the restaurant to all my friends.
Last month, while visiting relatives, we visited this restaurant. The atmosphere here is pleasant, relax comfortably and the service is just great! The food is very tasty and the choice of dishes is large. I will definitely look here again when I have the opportunity.
It has been a long time (or rather never) we have run into an institution in which we did not like any of the ordered dishes. For me, Jivan is an anti-rating leader. And this is a restaurant with a fairly cheerful price tag, adjacent to the Holiday Inn hotel.
We couldn't place an order for twenty minutes - they just didn't notice us. After the reminder, the order was accepted, but the waiter was clearly "floating" and could not tell about the composition of the dishes, simply assuring that they were very tasty.
As a result, I mixed everything up, and what I brought was bland, tasteless and cold, although they did not wait long.
Yerevan salad with some peppers is in fact just Bulgarian peppers and tomatoes cut into large pieces, a little green on top and a cap of fresh whipped cream of orange color. Not salty, no spices - just biomass.
The name of the second salad was not remembered. If you find three unfamiliar words in the menu, in the "Salads" section, know that this is him. The result is a couscous-type cereal with a lot of butter without taste, without spices, without everything!
Beef cheeks with mashed potatoes - beef is rubbery and cooled. It's not tasty.
Sterlet with cauliflower is just boiled sterlet and cabbage. The sauce, like all the other dishes of this restaurant, is bland and impersonal.
Some kind of strange, unnecessarily loud music. Waiters, then massively running in, then also massively disappearing - this is a separate song. While clearing the half-eaten dishes from the table, the waiter did not have a question about whether everything was OK with their quality.
They asked for a settlement, they paid with a card. The bill is in the local alphabet, go guess what you paid for. After the receipt came out of the device, the waiter solemnly said one word - "EVERYTHING", and in English, without saying goodbye, left.
We still haven't come to our senses where we got to, and can this really be…
We were invited to a family holiday at the Jivan restaurant on the recommendation of friends - and the impressions turned out to be extremely positive. Although we did not order from the menu, everything we tried was at the highest level of taste and quality. The service deserves special mention — attentive waiters and friendly hostesses have created a cozy atmosphere.
We were especially pleased with the availability of underground parking, which greatly facilitated our arrival. There is no need to spend hours searching for a parking space in the city center. In general, the Jivan restaurant has left pleasant memories, and we confidently recommend it for a visit.

A very good place, impeccable interior design, delicious cuisine, respect to the Chef, super service, competent waiters and bartenders, a good wine list, thank you for being there
The music was terrible, the speakers were humming, they couldn't even stay for 5 minutes. The money for the reservation was not returned, they replied that we from the village did not know how it happens in restaurants.
We have booked a table at the Jivan restaurant for the Armenian Christmas, which falls on the night of January 5th to 6th)
There were a lot of people, although we thought that everyone would be at home) We ordered all kinds of fish, since it is customary for Armenians to eat fish at Christmas.
The food was very pleasant, everything was delicious. We took local whitefish with scallops, sea bass with fried grapes, sterlet with cauliflower and Dorado! Everything was very tasty and beautifully served. The waiter Rafi helped to pick up the wines, in the evening there was live Armenian music.
A very atmospheric place, we recommend it)
Very decent service and cuisine. Attentive staff, fast service, convenient location. I really liked the dishes.
In the evening, the courtyard acquires a special atmosphere:)
We are pleasantly shocked by the beauty of the dishes in this restaurant. We walked on Republic Square, saw the sign, went in for lunch.
We ordered a vegetable salad, local fish with scallops (we didn't have time to take a picture) and Dorado, it's just in the photo! The dish is not only beautiful, but also very tasty! All the dishes that were served to us were amazing. The place has been added to our piggy bank of delicious restaurants in Yerevan)
This is just a crazy delicious place, your taste buds will be immensely grateful to you. The interior is very beautiful, the waiters are excellent, the cook is generally out of competition. We ordered strachatella salad with strawberries, filet mignon steak, cheese plate, trout tartare, meat from the chef, beer and cocktails. It is impossible to convey in letters what a gastronomic delight we left there.
I definitely recommend you to visit 👍
We had to come here, because all the nearby restaurants were busy. They put me in a heated veranda. I didn't like anything here at all. We waited a long time for the waiter to take the order. I accepted the order and did not repeat it. As a result, I messed up the dishes. All the dishes were tasteless. That's it!!! 2 salads and 2 hot ones. The meat was barely warm. Everything is fresh, no spices, no salt. The receipt is in the local, do not check. Strange loud music. No sincerity, everything is slow, not interested.

I was visiting Yerevan. Our big company decided to celebrate their birthday at the Jivan restaurant, and it was just an amazing experience. The staff deserves the highest praise – 3 waiters were assigned to our table, carefully watching every detail. They not only poured drinks, treated delicious food, but also created a real enchanting finale, bringing out a cake under fireworks and performing "Happy Birthday" together with the rest of the staff. The food was simply delicious! Thank you for a wonderful evening and for creating an unforgettable atmosphere of joy!
We really enjoyed the meal! These are not plastic, tasteless Moscow products)) Fish, meat and even salads are all very tasty! The service is polite, the interior has to be in the evening)
A very delicious restaurant! Kitchen 10 out of 10! It is clear that they do not save on products. The service is fast. The interior is a luxurious classic, we recommend it)
Great place. We attended a halloween party and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the pleasant atmosphere. This restaurant has a delicious honey cake.
It's a pretty good restaurant. Delicious food, good service, prices are quite reasonable for the capital. I recommend it!

The insanely delicious restaurant, the stunning interior, all the dishes that we managed to try are very tasty! The kebab is incredibly juicy. Dolma is very tasty! Our Siberian dumplings are a delight!
Upon arrival in Armenia, this place is in the first place to visit!
We have breakfast with a friend in the morning at this restaurant. Very tasty cuisine, we often take pancakes with caviar and eggs Benedict (salmon is not spared here). Cheesecakes are served soft and airy. Few places in Yerevan know how to cook them, they do here.
The place was recommended by friends. The interior is gorgeous, there are no words. We were greeted politely. The service is also decent, attentive waiters. However, there are still questions about the kitchen. The hot dishes were served cold, the fish was half-baked. As far as we understood, we made a discount because of this, thank you for that. I would like to wish you success, we hope that the shortcomings in the kitchen will be eliminated. Let's go back and try again))! The prices are normal.
A good restaurant. Delicious food, attentive staff and a pleasant atmosphere. Live music in the evening. Thanks!

A wonderful, cozy place with unusual
, delicious desserts, my husband and I ran there in the summer, took a branded duduk and honey cake on the recommendation, the taste is simple, the service is also at the level)
A very nice place. But we didn't get there the first time) Once it was a birthday, the second time it was an engagement)
The kitchen is amazing, we recommend it)
Nothing special, the standard Armenian menu. Russian Russian cuisine is available, but you don't need to expect it to match the Russian one. But the service was not very pleasant. In general, I will not go again.
