Winner of Opentable’s Dinner Choice award for best Mediterranean, Almayass has a 4.5 rating on Yelp and Zagat rating of 4.4 for “a delicious introduction to Lebanese-Armenian cooking and a lovely, welcoming, share-worthy meal” where the food and the space are meant to evoke eating at someone’s home. It just might be the “Best Middle Eastern in New York”. Lebanese cuisine is “Southern Mediterranean meets Middle Eastern,” and if you have never tried it, the Michelin Guide highly recommends it!!! The story of Almayass began in Beirut in 1996 by the third-generation Armenian Alexandrian family, who had a passion to share and serve their culinary delights. Since then, the restaurant has come to the attention of The New York Times, New York Magazine, Food & Wine Magazine, The Los Angeles Times and many other international publications as a ‘must go’ destination for an Armenian-Lebanese dining experience. In recent years, Almayass has expanded in the Middle East with locations in Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait City, Doha at The Pearl and Dubai.
