Mayrig, in Gemmayzeh, prides itself on Armenian cooking, which comes from ancestral recipes that have come through generations. It has also used these long established recipes and adapted them with elements from Lebanese food and other Mediterranean cooking styles. On the menu you’ll find traditional family recipes that are expertly prepared and served
This family feel stops, however, with the interiors of the restaurant. They take on a much higher level of class and sophistication. It is stylistically Arabic, and has the feel of an old Lebanese house from the turn of the 20th century, with added elegance. Atmospheric and interesting Mayrig serves as an excellent introduction to Armenian cuisine.
