Hi Lori,
Enjoyed your article. However, you missed one very authentic Armenian restaurant located in Bayside, NY. Sevan Restaurant is as close to Yerevan as you’ll get. You must try it. They’re located at 21607 Horace Harding Expwy. Bayside, NY 11364 in the Oakland Gardens area.
Thanks!
Hi Lori,
I can’t wait to try all of these restaurants! I like the idea of nostalgia that Arek expressed. That is certainly the case with all Armenian food; It is what makes an article like yours so special for people looking to remain connected to their heritage outside of their own kitchen. Can’t wait to read more of your thoughts!
Great job!
Great article! we have a lot of restaurants here in Los Angeles that serve Armenian food but I’m glad to hear that they exist in New York as well. Love to hear that Armenians are all around the world sharing our culture, food, hospitality, happiness, music and maybe even some of our dance moves.
