This little market is great! It is organized and very clean. I found sumac and will be adding this wonderful spice to my salads. I didn't think that this little place could come close to having delicious food comparable to a sit down and dine in restaurant. I was mistaken!hamegh! The chicken is flavorful and juicy. I purchased two trays of pilaf and chicken shish kabob for a small family gathering. The hummus is perfect. I finished one container on my own. This Pita loves yummy hummus. This place is now my go to place for Mediterranean take out. read more

I wasn't sure what I wanted for lunch but the ratings for this little store really jumped out at me. I decided to give them a try and as it turns out their high ratings are more than justified. When I first walked in I was greeted by some of the friendliest people you could ever hope to meet. Being my first time their I had no idea what to order but they were quite helpful and helped me settle on the Lamb Shish Kebob. Just wow!!! It was probably the best version of that dish that I've ever had. The lamb was perfectly cooked....juicy, tender, and delicious. It paired nicely with a modest salad, flat bread, rice and a very good garlic sauce. Ararat Market is also a pretty neat little store with a variety of meats and cheeses I've never, or at least rarely seen. I will definitely be back!!! read more

The absolute best Mediterranean food in town. They do takeout only, but oh my goodness the food is delicious!

Long past due for a review for Ararat. I have been eating here since they opened years ago. The food has always been solid, and the hardworking family working there is always friendly. Tonight I had the lamb ribs. Simply delicious. Three perfectly seasoned ribs, tender on the inside, crisped around the bone edges. The rice pilaf, tomato salad, and yogurt dressing perfectly complimented the lamb. Surprisingly satiating, and not greasy or heavy. My kids had the chicken lulu plate, and finished every bite. So, a winner for them as well. Also, they sell ethnic groceries here. They have a nice selection of teas here. I bought a nice box Ceylon tea today, and it paired well with my meal. Good luck, and eat well my friends! read more

Customer service was great. Food was bland and mostly dry. I'm confused with all the 5 stars. Two of the chicken pieces were cooked perfectly. Very moist and soft. The other three were incredibly dry and chewy. My sister ordered the beef (not pictured) and all 5 pieces were dry and chewy. It was quite shocking. I wanted to like this place so bad but there was no flavor at all. The salad and yogurt looked fresh which was great but with no flavor. Normally I go to Mediterranean Grill in Fresno downtown which perfectly cooks my food every time. Willing to give this place another try though. read more

Ararat Market - Chicken - Armenian Near Me - Clovis, California

Their meat is fresh as well as the pilaf. I do miss the salad from other Mediterranean restaurants but you would be hard pressed to eat and entire serving of their portion sizes! It's great of you like leftovers. read more

Great store with ethnic diversity , the staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and the store had a great selection. The quality of the products exceeded my expectations, and the prices were reasonable. Overall, a top-notch shopping destination! read more

I ordered the beef and chicken combo for $10.27 after tax. I understand why people say it's better to call your order in before going in to the store. It took around 15 minutes for them to prepare my order. The shop itself is pretty small, but they have quite the diverse selection of grocery items. The food itself was delicious. Everything was seasoned to perfection. The garlic sauce is awesome and the rice was even flavorful. There was enough food to last me through two meals. read more

Ararat Market - Beef and chicken combo $10.27 after tax. - Armenian Near Me - Clovis, California

Great little Armenian grocery where you can find lots of Armenian and middle eastern food and bread, and lets not forget their kebab! You can buy it pre-marinated or order it cooked to go! They even cater for parties! read more

One of the best middle eastern food I've had!!!! Their meals are delicious and affordable. I also like the Armenian drinks their serve, like the apple and pear carbonated drinks. Glad I found this hole in the wall!!!! read more

All I have to say is WOW! The food was good. Coming from Los Angeles and being exposed to a diverse selection of Mediterranean restaurants, I have to say that this place is delicious and authentic! It is not a sit-down restaurant at all. Only take-out. The wait is about 10-15 min when you place an order. There is no where to sit, and it's a tiny market. The market itself sells items such as their garlic sauce and hummus (fresh). Along with pastries, deli, and items you can buy home to make your dishes. The combo plates do not come with hummus. You get your protein, salad, rice pilaf and garlic sauce. Although I believe you can sub the garlic sauce for hummus, but I like both and had to pay extra for a container of hummus which was way too much for my dish. There was plenty to save if you would like to use it for chips. read more

Super friendly service and yummy chicken pita wraps and falafels. So glad this place exists in Clovis! They also have baba ganoush which I don't find often. My husband and I like looking around at all the interesting food items they offer. If I ever get around to making hummus for sure I will stop by here to get my ingredients. If you are getting food it's better to call ahead so you don't need to wait in the store which is fairly small. read more

Delicious!!! The meat is cooked perfect and the garlic sauce is to die for. I will definitely be back!!

They were closed on the 20th May 2023, they had a note on the door, but I think they should have updated the site to reflect he changes or even their voicemail should have the message as well. Little bit professionalism might have customers. As I saw 3 customers came and left frustrated. read more

We used Ararat Market and ordered by the pound for home party. It was super delicious and very reasonably priced. I ended up with leftovers because some people didn't make it to the party. That was ok because my family had more delicious food to eat. We ordered rice, beef, chicken, lamb, vegetables, babaganoosh and dzadziki. read more

I stopped in yesterday to check this place out after meaning to for a long time. I was greeted like an old friend and ordered a falafel wrap. As I was waiting and looking through the cases of meats, the gentleman working asked if I had any questions as he explained the meats they have, how he can slice them, and that if there was anything I wanted that they didn't have, he would try to get it. It was nice to see that they had a lot of Armenian items, but also a lot of German and Polish items. So I got some bologna, kielbasa, sardines, falafel wrap (yummy), and happily went home. read more
