Traditional Armenian Lunch or Dinner
At Areni Wine Art, food is not separate from wine - it is part of the same story. Our kitchen celebrates the traditions of Vayots Dzor and rural Armenia, where meals are prepared slowly, shared generously, and made with ingredients grown just steps away. We cook the way our families always have: seasonal vegetables, local herbs, village cheeses, fresh lavash, garden fruits, and meats sourced from nearby farms.
Everything is simple, authentic, and homemade.
You won’t find complicated dishes here - only real food with real flavor.
From bread baked in the tonir to herbs picked in the morning and grilled vegetables scented with smoke, every plate reflects the taste of Areni.
Lunch at Areni Wine Art is relaxed and welcoming - perfect after a vineyard walk, wine tasting, or village exploration.
Our daytime table features fresh, seasonal dishes that pair beautifully with our whites, rosé, and lighter reds:
Armenian salads with herbs, tomatoes, and local cheese
Fresh lavash from the tonir
Traditional homemade specialties
Grilled vegetables and countryside plates
Small seasonal desserts and fruit
Served on our terrace or in the garden, lunch is meant to be easy, social, and refreshing - a moment to slow down with a glass of wine and the mountain breeze.
Simple food. Bright flavors. Good company.
As the sun sets behind the cliffs of Areni, Areni Wine Art transforms into a cozy and intimate space for long, memorable dinners.
Dinner is our most immersive culinary experience - a celebration of Armenian hospitality, shared plates, and perfectly paired wines. Expect the aromas of the barbecue, slow-cooked dishes, and the sound of wine glasses filling:
Barbecue meats grilled over open fire
Traditional tolma and regional recipes
Hearty village dishes passed around the table
Seasonal sides and homemade preserves
Wine pairings from our cellar, including reserves and special bottles
Dinner is not rushed. It’s about stories, laughter, and connection - the way meals have always been enjoyed in Armenian homes. By the end of the night, guests feel less like visitors and more like friends.
