The MICHELIN Guide's Only Armenian Restaurant in America
"Zhengyalov Hatz has brought a piece of gastronomic heritage to America with its only main menu item, zhingyalov hats. Owner Vrezh Osipyan explains its significance and shares his culture, while reflecting on Armenian food traditions. The restaurant's design transports diners to Armenia, with a traditional style of 'Old Yerevan'. Zhengyalov Hatz makes hundreds of fresh zhingyalov hats daily and combats waste through careful ingredient ordering. The vegan dish features a variety of herbs and is complemented by other vegetarian offerings like okroshka and paxlava. The restaurant celebrates Armenian culture through its ambiance, music, and future menu expansions to include meat-centric dishes." - Michael He
