"At Lavaash, acclaimed chef Sabyasachi Gorai — known simply as chef Saby — has created a menu dedicated to the Armenian community in Bengal. Waves of Armenians arrived in East India over many centuries, integrating local ingredients into their cuisine, and Lavaash is an ode to their recipes. Options include a skewer of paneer marinated in tamarind and mint, a Bengali-style baked fish in mustard served inside thin lavash bread, and the must-have khorovats, a traditional Armenian cheese platter comprising many of India’s disappearing cheeses.

The food here is fantastic! The Armenian dishes are as authentic add possible despite being so far from the country. The view from the balcony is unbearable with the pomegranate vines on the pillars just enough to not overpower the decor. You may have to deal with the occasional smokers but this is far better than the extremely loud music booming inside that prevents any meaningful conversation. The staff are friendly and attentive. The food can be served in waves so that all persons in your party will get up sample the delicacies.

A bit too overpriced and overhyped place. Although the ambience is good. The food is average! If you're looking to try Armenian and Bengali fusion food then you'll find subtle hints of them. The non-alcoholic drinks menu is limited to 4 -5 items and food quantity served is too less for the amount of money they charge, with average taste. We were served a prawn curry, the prawns in which were heavily undercooked and even found a metal piece in our food. But they were courteous enough to replace it with something else! So brace yourself!

Great food and good ambience. Their fusion of Armenian and Bengali cuisine with western dishes is really great. Ambience is also beautiful and the location and campus looks great when sitting outdoors. A bit pricey but a good place to spend your evening nonetheless. Valet parking is available free of cost.

Such a lovely and romantic setting. Love this restaurant for it's ambience and food. Best for it's outdoorsy settings and I love visiting it on winter afternoons and summer evenings😀 The staff is super courteous and attentive. The food is a lovely mix of Italian, Bengali and Armenian. There is great decor and lovely music. It's a great dining experience all in all.

I had the most amazing lunch here in the company of good friends. The platters were gorgeous, in particular the cheese platter featuring the Bandel cheese. Between us we tried so many things and were not disappointed by anything we ate. Even the desserts blew our mind. Don’t leave without trying the nolen gur ice cream. The perfect marriage of the Armenian Bong cuisine. Highly recommended. Highly repeatable. If you haven’t been, don’t miss out.

Had a bunch of interesting things. The drinks were great but the food was just above average. Was happy with the quantity but the taste wasn't all that great. The Lavaash & Hummus was a combo that worked out well. The dessert was delicious - see pictures!

Delicious, mind blowing food. Amazing decor and music. The setting is otherworldly and yet so delhi-ish. But what envelops all these things is the amazing storytelling by chef Saby. He takes one through Kolkata lanes and through Armenian delicacies and one finds themselves in another era, relishing each element on the plate the way it was intended. Must visit!

A place worth all the hype. Brilliant food and equally great setting. Surrounded by trees and an old Bengali world decor, Lavaash is just amazing. Visited it over the weekend and was enamoured by it. We ordered cold coffee, fresh lime, pomegranate based mocktails, onion prawn tolma, char grilled paneer skewer, mushroom manti, gobindobhog rice and spicy chicken in Georgian sauce. Loved everything. So full of flavour and such nice presentation. I only wish the service was a tad bit quick. It is understandable that Sunday lunches are a busy time in any restaurant but waiting 30 minutes for a sweet lime soda is tiresome.
