Karas Dine-In

Great Armenian restaurant with some Russian and Uzbek specialties. Everything was really great. We had borsch, plov, lamb, beef koobideh, chicken filet, dolma, khachspuri. Everything was fantastic. I wish Borsch was warmer, but the taste was good as well as the spread and the brioche. There was my favorite Georgian lemonade Dyushes. Some of the food was left dye to large order and we took it away. Hopefully eggplant rolls will be added to the menu soon. The Georgian Kharcho soup would be amazing, too.

I’m shocked this place doesn’t have ALL 5 star reviews. I ordered the hummus and bread for the appetizer, and the chicken breast bbq plate for my main. I tried some of the borscht my mom ate and it tasted good; she was very satisfied. The atmosphere and service are also very good, I was pleased. Came here on a Friday evening, wasn’t too busy. Can’t wait to come here again. Note - the tea selection here is outstanding. I would HIGHLY recommend this place for healthy and delicious Armenian food.

Authentic borscht and various Armenian selections that will surely make you feel at home. The lamb I had was a good texture, showing it was made with care; & I love the bread basket with the different options and the gourmet butter. The atmosphere felt inviting and the two blonde server ladies gave great service and gave insight into some of the items that I was not familiar with. They were friendly but not fake. I too appreciate the blonde server guy who brought the food out to us for his professionalism. A great spot for Armenian cuisine and some other Eastern European flavors thrown in. Good place to try out of this is what you look for. Also to mention the ceramic tableware is stunning. Only flaw is the nightclub or whatever event venue upstair could be loud.

Karas Restaurant in Glendale is an amazing spot with authentic flavors and great presentation. Everything we tried was fresh, full of taste, and beautifully served. The portions are generous, and the food feels both comforting and high quality. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is fast and friendly. You can tell they really care about making guests feel at home and delivering a memorable dining experience. Definitely one of the best places in Glendale for enjoying delicious traditional food. Highly recommend!

DONT EAT HERE: I showed up to this restaurant this evening to get a bite to eat, we were verbally assaulted by a customer (sadly didn’t get better photos because I was genuinely scared for mine and my wife’s safety) who threatened to “kill us” and was screaming full volume in the restaurant literally spitting in our faces how loud he was. I did not feel safe eating here and after everything they weren’t willing to accommodate us a seat that made us feel safe away from this scary interaction so we ultimately left. After everything that happened they really should have stepped up. All I wanted was some Bortsch, I wouldn’t go back.

Karaş Restaurant is perfect for large family gatherings! The service was exceptional—fast, friendly, and attentive—and the food was delicious with generous portions. The spacious setup and great value made it an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend for anyone hosting a group! Thank you guys!!! Very happy:)

We came on a packed Saturday night, but Adelina handled everything with grace. She was polite, friendly, and made us feel truly welcome. Her attitude added so much warmth to the restaurant’s atmosphere. Servers like her make you want to come back

Thought this place would be super good going off reviews. It took us forever to even get table settings. The California burger was OK. The lamb chop plate with fries ( the lamb chops were not bad, but I've had way better. Under seasoned and the fries super hard). Truffle warmest fries were TERRREIBLEEEE! The fries were EXTREMELY hard and over fried. The service was ridiculous, maybe because i was the only Black American there. Felt completely disregarded as a customer. Then to add to the terrible service the waitress doesn't give me my full change back. I WILL NEVER EVEN LOOK AT THIS RESTAURANT AGAIN. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND going here. There are more less expensive and extremely tasteful Mediterranean places in LA. Only came because my son has the same name as the restaurant.
