Tired of the same dull, old menu selections? I was. That's why when given the option to select…read morethe restaurant for my Birthday dinner I chose Ararat. Tucked unassumingly in a shopping mall in Mundelein, Ararat is a tiny hidden gem. With only about an 8 table dining room, it is a cozy, intimate venue, with a huge and amazing menu, featuring Armenian cuisine. A party of 4, we ordered drinks, 3 appetizers, and an entree for each of us. The portions were generous, delicious, and we probably over-ordered by at least one appetizer, but we wanted to sample and share as many dishes as possible. We began with glasses of tasty Armenian apricot wine. Our appetizers came out in sequence rather than all at once, starting with Italian Lady's Fingers. A mixed salad of cooked bell peppers, nuts, onion and prunes. Very good. Next we were served Khorovats, Armenian style grilled eggplant . Also an excellent dish. Last was beef and lamb dumplings, Khinkili. One of these large, juicy dumplings could have been almost half a meal by itself. I've tried khinkili in a number of restaurants, and these were the best I've eaten. Our entrees were Steak Kebab, Lamb Kebab, Lamb Rice Pilaf, and Frikasse, a chicken, mushroom, vegetable in sour cream sauce dish. All were very good, and were were saddened that we were all too full to try any of their baked goods desserts. The meal was excellent, the small dining room comfy and the service very good. One word of caution: If you plan to dine here you must be patient. Dishes were served as they were prepared, and apparantly little if anything is prepared in advance. The advantage is hot, fresh, and tasty dishes. The disadvantage is that there was a 10 minute delay between service of the 1st and 4th entree. We were in no hurry, so we did not mind. Also we were sharing our selection. For a casual, relaxed, delicious dining adventure I highly recommend Ararat.

I ordered the Pad Thai with tofu, the staple menu item I order each time I visit. My guest ordered the Mongolian beef. My pad Thai came out visibly different than times past. It looks almost watered down and the tofu was not coated and seared with the beautiful crust it normally has. I ate it and it tasted... sour. Normally this pad Thai leans savory over sweet, but this time it just straight up tasted sour. The tofu was nothing to write home about, which is typically not the experience I have here. The Mongolian beef tasted like it had more sear on the meat than actual beef. It tasted over-charred. The rice and veggies were good, but that's kind of a simple feat. I ordered the Pomegrantate martini which was good. The space was also very hot, I understand it's a hot day and a busy restaurant but my legs were dripping in sweat the entire hour we were there. I will give them a try again, because I know from previous experiences the pad Thai was usually great. That tofu is what I keep coming back for! Hopefully next time it'll meet my expectations. This was this past weekend on Friday night.

This is based primarily on the fact that they had styrofoam to go on the edamame and it was very hot which I appreciated. However it gave off a fishy odor, which I guess hot food can do in styrofoam. Hot food releases some nasty chemical. I looked it up because I almost threw it out but wondered why it would smell so weird. By the time I got it home the smell had dissipated but please use a more eco friendly, healthier option for your take out. I didn't really have a lot to review food wise because I only got the dumplings and an order of edamame to go. There were far more interesting things on the menu. The dumplings were good but a bit greasier than I would have liked and again, set on a styrofoam tray with plastic wrap on top. The portion was good and the flavor of the dumplings good though, even though wrapped in plastic they lost any crispness they may have had. Well and edamame is edamame, so other than the off putting smell I'm going to rinse and warm them and have them for lunch today. The lady that took my order was cheerful and friendly, and service was pretty quick, probably less than the ten minutes quoted. Next time I go I'll try one of their more interesting lunches and eat it there. There are a few booths and tables to sit at and it wasn't busy when I was there.
