New location in North Hollywood. I stopped by to get a zhengyalov hatz for lunch cause I was…read morecraving it. Very cute place with indoor seating that's cozy and decorated nicely. Customer service is friendly and welcoming. Really nice ladies working here. It's basically herb stuffed flatbread that tastes so good. They use over a dozen of fresh mixed herbs. It reminds me of Artsakh every time I eat one. Cause I had the best tasting ones in Artsakh years ago. This one comes close enough so I really enjoyed it. It's so close to me I will definitely stop by again. I noticed they have other items on the menu such as Georgian khachapuri with eggs, kebab wraps, etc .... I will try them soon. Great place to check out.

I bought a Baklava and their " $6.99 Special"…read more The Baklava was $6, almost as much as a full meal so I thought I'd be getting a fresh dessert. Instead I was given a Baklava from the display that was definitely not fresh - prob has been sitting for days. Was super stale and old tasting. The $6.99 special was dry fish sandwich on Italian buns that weren't toasted or anything. I was not told it was going to be fish, there was no indication of the ingredients on the menu. The dressing was ketchup & mayo. Honestly so bad only giving 2 stars cus the guy at the front was nice and I think the place is new so they are probably still learning how to serve good food. I threw away all the food tho, couldnt finish any of it.

They have a wide menu and you will find something you want. They have the best Pelmeni and you can get these dumplings with chicken or beef. Their Armenian Yogurt soup is also great. Their Pozharsky Cutlet stuffed with mushrooms is amazing and different. Their salads are also good. We love the Ahi Tuna salad and the seafood salad. All of their mains are good. And believe it or not their fries are so good, it is a side dish. The service is ever so nice and kind and we love the manager/owner who came by the check on us. What a nice guy. Everything was perfect. We could not have been happier. The inside is comfortable and really pretty. All the tables are dressed with white table clothes and cutlery is already set up. Enjoy.

I like your original because it has personality. I tightened it up while **keeping your "gun to her…read morehead" line**, your humor, and your storytelling style. Oh man... I wish I could give **no stars** or maybe even **minus one star**. I have lived in this city for over 30 years, and I frequently go out for dinner. I love ethnic food and enjoy trying new restaurants. But **THIS**. I repeat, **THIS** was the most shocking and truly unbelievable restaurant experience I have ever had. My spouse and I like to eat late, so we checked Yelp to see if there were any restaurants in the North Hollywood area open later than 9:00 p.m. We found this one with a 4-star rating. Wow... not bad. I didn't bother reading the 1-star reviews. LOL. My mistake. The menu sounded great, although a bit pricey, so we decided to give it a try. After what we experienced, I'm honestly amazed this place is still allowed to be open. It really makes me wonder whether the city ever checks on some of these restaurants. As soon as we parked, we heard incredibly loud music. We assumed there was a private party or some kind of celebration. But when we walked through the patio area and into the restaurant, we discovered the inside was empty. The music blasting from the stage was so loud that my spouse and I couldn't even understand each other. Then a woman came out from some door--maybe the kitchen, I have no idea. Oh my God... she looked like she had just gotten out of bed. Her demeanor was so unfriendly and unwelcoming that I was honestly in awe. She looked absolutely miserable. My spouse practically had to yell just to tell her we'd rather sit on the patio, hoping it would be a little quieter. It wasn't. Two men were sitting at a table across from us with all kinds of equipment, and behind us sat a couple with two children. As I always try to be friendly, I smiled and said, "Hi, how are you?" She looked at me almost in disbelief and forced herself to smile as if someone were holding a gun to her head and making her do it. Then she took our drink order and disappeared. Meanwhile, one of the children behind us started screaming and yelling. Of course, the parents couldn't have cared less. I honestly don't understand why some parents think that when their kids behave like bloody little brats, screaming and yelling, everyone else in the restaurant is supposed to enjoy it too. No, we do **NOT**. Teach your kids how to behave in public. It worked pretty well when we boomers were growing up! Anyway... back to the restaurant. Our lovely, oh-so-friendly waitress eventually came back. Still no drinks. Somehow, after the way she treated us, we weren't even surprised anymore. We ordered our food, and off she went again with her incredibly "welcoming" attitude. Then, all of a sudden, those two men across from us got up and went to the stage. They turned out to be the night's entertainers. The music had already been painfully loud, but once they started singing, it became even louder. The funny part was... who exactly were they performing for? The restaurant inside was empty, and outside there was only one family and us. After a while, I turned to my spouse and said, "I think they're singing to themselves." After enduring about two songs, my spouse quietly told me that the couple behind us had started smoking. My back was toward them, so I hadn't noticed. That was the final straw. We certainly did **NOT** expect people to be smoking while we were trying to eat in a restaurant. We looked at each other and said, "Nope. We've had enough." A cranky, unfriendly waitress, two guys singing so loudly I'm sure the entire neighborhood could hear them, screaming children, and now cigarette smoke? No, thank you. My spouse went inside hoping to find our waitress so we could let her know we were leaving, but she was nowhere to be found. At that point, we simply walked out. We have never done that before, but this experience was completely unacceptable. Between the miserable service, the deafening music, the singers performing for practically nobody, and people smoking while others were trying to eat, this was, without question, the worst restaurant experience we've ever had. Stay away from this excuse for a restaurant.

This review is for Gev's khinkali. Wow. First off this location is absolutely stunning, inviting,…read morefunctional, well thought out. The customer service was amazing, I felt supported and welcomed. Now, there is some limited English spoken, but please don't let that be a sign of bad customer service, rather it is just a small language barrier. There's an app by Google called translate and while it's not always 100% accurate it's pretty helpful and easy to use. Armenian and Russian is spoken here and trust me, they are making a genuine effort to speak English. Gev's KHINKALI is simply incredible. I can't wait to share some with my Armenian neighbors. Khinkali is a beloved Georgian (the country not the state) giant dumpling. It's kind of a variation of xiao long bao, the Chinese soup dumpling. Khinkali has its own delicate flavors and I love it boiled for 8-10 minutes, served with a little butter and black pepper. Let it cool for 3 minutes and then go for it. I like to bite a little bit off making sure the soupy inside gets in my mouth and some meat. Hard to only eat one. Gev's Kitchen is ready for you!! Gev's has a freezer waiting for you stocked with tons of frozen khinkali in different flavors ready to be purchased and taken home boiled or fried. $26 before tax for the beef and there are ten giant pieces in the bag. So after tax it's about $3.50 per each dumpling. In my opinion it is so worth it. Even though you can make this at home, it's a rather simple recipe, but to get the dough perfected to this degree is something else. The meat seasoning and quality itself is also perfection. Glad I took a chance and tried Gev's despite the few negative reviews. I will 100% be coming back specifically for the frozen beef khinkali. Parking lot is limited however they have two spots conveniently designated for Gev's. Ps: as someone who is sensitive and who takes customer service to heart, I must say they are very much in tune with making sure everyone is happy. This is top notch service, presentation, experience. You'll never find a place this clean, detailed, professional with such incredible Khinkali. They are smart for offering this incredibly special khinkali in such a convenient manner. Lastly, a kind request to the owners, please, I beg you please try to do your best to not raise the prices. I wish to be a regular and frequent customer but we are on a tight budget as many people are right now. I understand there are bills to pay and greedy landlords to keep up with, but please try your best to accommodate this request, thank you.

I love all of these flavors together and the service is always friendly, however because their kitchen is small, your order may be a bit delayed , but I don't mind too much because I love the servers and the food, if you're in a hurry though, go early (5:00pm) and plan on a relaxed drink because of that small kitchen and homemade dishes the food prep can be delayed. Mantee's is a smaller restaurant, however, the atmosphere is very nice with inside and outside patio dining. If I bring my pup, the patio dining is perfect. It's a great place for medium size birthdays too and they have their own special Disney like Birthday Music they play to help you celebrate ( I always get a kick out of it). Parking is limited in back, but there is street parking and a strip mall across the street with parking. Do call and make a reservation though before you go. Then Enjoy
