Elie's Lahmajun

Elie's sits on Movses Khorenatsi in central Yerevan, doing lahmajun at a serious level—thin crust, sharp herb finish, meat cooked through without drying. The 4.9 rating across 700+ reviews isn't hype; locals queue here. Around 9500 dram for two covers lahmajun, maybe lula kebab or manti if you add more. Kentron foot traffic means mixed crowd—office workers at lunch, families after work. Fast turnover, standing-room energy, no frills. This is the kind of place where the oven and the herbs matter more than decor. Come hungry and early if you hate waiting.

Things to note: Small space means peak hours get loud and cramped; expect to stand or wait 10–15 minutes if you arrive after 12:30 or 18:00.
