Cherkezi Dzor

Top choice in Armenia


This fish restaurant is so popular some Russians have been known to fly here to try the fish and fly back the next day. Seating is in open pavilions surrounding the fish pools where your dinner will be caught fresh to order. Trout and sturgeon are available along with delicious salads and sides. Bread is freshly baked in on-site ovens.

The restaurant is on the western side of town near a Russian army base and a little hard to find. From the stadium, cross the opposite bank and walk north up the canyon for 1.3km. Alternatively, a taxi or GG should cost AMD500 each way from the city centre.
