Bottom line - Its a great place with great tastes. I saw the big differences between the reviews and decided to check it. I think that small changes can complete the experience.

First time trying Armenian food. The lamajoun and the Armenian platter with some Armenian specialties like stuffed eggplant and kufta was delicious.

I travel for work and always make time to try new restaurants. I come from a city with a great food scene so am a bit snobby about food. Sayat Nova was probably a top 3 meal I have had while traveling. Everything was delicious. The beef kebab, solid. The shawarma, really good. Hummus was fine, not amazing but good. It had a great texture. Both the cheese and spinach Boereg were so good I had to order more. I highly recommend this place.

Flew in from LA with a hungry family. After being disappointed by a nearby restaurant quoting a 25 minute wait time Sayat Nova was excellent. Welcoming, great food, speedy service and fair prices. Excellent meat. Minor point off for less attentive service once seated, but otherwise brilliant. Will return soon.

My wife and I ate here Sunday night. I highly recommend the Knafi, but everything we had was excellent.

I ordered takeout from this restaurant and randomly came upon it as I was walking home. They told us some of the meat options are Halal (would definitely ask to clarify) and it was delicious. The meat had the right amount of tenderness and flavor!
Their takeout service was great! I had walked over in high heels and they let my husband and I sit down and kindly served us water as we waited for our takeout order. The vibe was nice too and some day I’d love to sit down and eat there!

I discovered this restaurant while searching for a dinner option on Google maps. I made an online reservation without a lot of notice. Upon arrival, the host was very welcoming and had a table ready for me. The restaurant isn't too large, but it's cozy and nicely decorated. Service was great, and the food was excellent. I'll return again.

The best meal we had all weekend! My sister and I walked past this place several times on our way to and from our hotel around the corner. The aroma of the food is what caught us first. Definitely a hole in the wall, as you wouldn't notice it since Ed's is right next door. A bit more pricey, but so worth it!! We had never had Armenian food. The flavor of the food was heavenly, and each bite was perfect.
We tried the chicken and the shrimp plates and split them. Will definitely be coming back to try more!!

The owner personally greeting us and shared his experience updating his family’s restaurant. I loved the attention to detail in the decor and the thoughtfulness that went into it, incorporating designs from family heirlooms.
Service and food are both on point. Absolutely no complaints. A must if you’re ever in the area.

Such an amazing experience. Perfect atmosphere to reflect after our annual event! They even mentioned they have a private room for the next perfect time!
Hummus was out of this world.
Many thanks to Hannah, our bartender and the owner Ruben (*Please excuse spelling) for the hospitality, knowledge and love to carry this restaurant on for generations.
Looking forward to my next time in Chicago to visit!
