We live in Glendale for 18 years, and we want to try all the local Armenian food; when we are shopping in Smart and Final , we always see a long line out side of K'arsi bakery, we decided to join the line one day. Boy, you will not be disappointed, the main product is their Lavash which is a thin flatbread, you can wrap with anything: I am Chinese so I made some stirred fry veggies and chicken, beef, pork and wrapped it in lavash. It was delicious and light healthy meal! I am glad I step in Karsi bakery, we also purchased some other pastries, all delicious. The service ladies are friendly, they gave us a free pastry for a first timer. read more

The best lavash in Glendale, no doubt, but I'd be hesitant to try anything else from here. We recently bought their gata and it was by far the worst gata I've ever had. But go here for lavash. You won't be disappointed read more

I always get the perashka with chicken and potato, and it's always fresh and delicious! I would love to see a chicken , mushroom and cheese option added to the menu--it would be amazing. The food is great, the service is friendly, and I always enjoy coming here. Highly recommend! read more

K'arsi Lavash - PERASHKA WITH CHICKEN - Bakeries Near Me - Glendale, California

There is ALWAYS a LINE coming out of this tiny Armenian bakery that specializes in the Armenian flat bread called: Lavash. Besides LAVISH, K'arsi also offers sweet and savory Armenian style breads: Gatas, Peroshiki, Lahmajoons, Nazook, Napoleon, Birds Milk Cake, Layered Honey Cake, are what comes to mind. I also saw FRESH sourced Brown Eggs available for sale! Very cool. Oh, and their LAVASH flat bread is STELLAR! The BEST lavash I ever tasted! There is a line out the door for a reason. No worries though, the line goes by quickly. Bakery is tiny and super clean! Cash and Credit are accepted. Service was so welcoming to this only Asian chick in line, lol! Thank you! Can't wait to return for more lavish and goodies! read more

Stop by if you want to try some Armenian treats.The workers inside are so nice!! read more

Great place to get fresh lavash or popular Armenian pastries! I found parking on a nearby side street, and I got inside right before a line started forming out the door. The staff behind the counters were very nice and explained what each pastry was. Their napoleon slice was so good. The pastry layers were thin and crispy and the cream was light and fluffy. They also threw in a single lavash for free because I had never tried it before! The lavash was slightly salted and I kept snacking on it by itself before using the rest as a wrap. read more

Freshest and the most delicious lavash in LA ... it's worth the drive from the valley to get this deliciousness. They also sell pastries, gata etc. Customer service is wonderful. Very friendly people working here. Love it. During the weekends there might be a line out the door. Beware. The only issue is the parking. Hard to find. So let someone else drive you to buy lavash ... lol read more

The Burbank store has the nicest staff. The bread was awesome. The store was super clean. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone I know. Thank you guys. read more

The lines are long but they have the freshest lavash I've ever had in LA. They literally give it to you out of the oven, that's why there's a wait. We wanted to try their gata as well, but it was going to be another 30 minute wait so we'll just have to try it next time :) read more

I am an Armenian and I'm in United States more than 30 years. Best place to buy Armenian bread. Excellent customer service very clean place

Amazingly fresh and delicious kata--best in LA hands down. Huge enough to share--although you won't want to--ans not overly sweet. Perfection! read more

This place is one of my favorite places to go for baked goods, BEST LAVASH I ever had, delicious pastries, the size of every pastry is huge, the most important part is their service, best customer service ever, and the environment is fun ! 10/10 read more

Im no longer going to to gatekeep lol this is Karsi Bakery, an Armenian family owned business. it's my new favorite spot! The second you walk in, you're hit with the smell of fresh-baked lavash, and let me tell you, it's life-changing. It's a cozy bakery with lovely employees. I couldn't wait another second. Right when I got home I made myself a cheese sandwich with the fresh lavash. truly unmatched. Their lahmajoon is amazing too. Super thin and crispy with massive flavor. My weakness is a delicious gate and nazook. I don't know what kind of magic they're using, but theirs is the best I've ever had. especially Their nazzok.. it's crispy and flaky on the outside and the filling is so soft and chewy. I'll be bold and say it's truly my favorite pastry. they also carry other Armenian owned products. Don't wait another second. Go to Karsi and try the magic of fresh tradition yourself. read more

When I saw lines of people exiting this tiny bakery with sheets of ultra thin, super fresh lavash draped over their arms like dry cleaning, I knew I had to try. Perhaps the best bakery in Glendale. It's tiny, but everything is insanely fresh. They're constantly cranking out layers of hot, fresh lavash as well as an array of excellent cookies, pastries and pies. I bought a selection to try and instantly devoured it all. Didn't even last long enough to take a photo. read more

There's lavash and then there's K'arsi Lavash. After trying this lavash, I haven't been able to enjoy any other lavash. There's a line out the door for the freshly made lavashes and the wait is well worth it. Staff and owner are friendly and always greet you kindly and show appreciation for the client's support. read more

The lavash is good. They have other types of bread and pastries too. I would go back here again.

I just don't know what the hype is about their lavash. I went stood in line for 30 mins last Thursday. Here is my intake. 1. Lavash not great the dough gets dry too quick. 2. Round large gata needs to be more moist again outside dough is thick and the inside butter and sugar isn't enough it was a waste of money. 3. Potatoe perashki. Needs more potatoe filling inside and cmon atleast add some spices like Aleppo pepper, salt and add some onions & parsley 4. The only good item which I will go for is the napoleon It was honestly good, dough was crunchy wasn't mushy and old Bread I prefer other brands which I will not mention the names. read more

Best Lavash ever nothing beats this place 10/10. It's worth the wait in line! Armenian food it the best

Newish Armenian bakery by Smart and Final. Freshest lavash you can get anywhere, literally has to cook so they can bag it for you. At times long lines but moves fast. read more

Memories of Lavash shops in Teheran and Isfahan came flooding back to me!!! K'arsi Lavash is unparalleled in Los Angeles! NO ONE makes Lavash like K'arsi! Just entering the store is a pleasant encounter starting with great smells, then excellent service with crazy affordable prices! Buy an extra always as you will eat it driving home!!!! read more

The bread is always incredibly fresh, soft, and flavorful--clearly made with care and tradition. You can taste the quality in every bite. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and happy to help, which makes the experience even better. The bakery itself is clean, cozy, and smells amazing the moment you walk in. read more

Great bakery in Glendale area. Everything is very fresh. Hot lavash and amazing Gata. Highly recommend.

Hello wanted to say that I do love the Lavash from this bakery, but wanted to let owner to know that employees whoever answers phone calls has no skills in good customer service, I've been calling since yesterday to try to ask few questions regarding if I can place an order, that lady was very unprofessional and the way she spoke to me on the phone was rude and not welcoming. I'm very disappointed in the service I'm getting from your employees. Honestly bread and pastries are very tasty but if the service is at a bad level customers will stop coming to you. For your good and your customers work with your employees to improve the service. Thank you read more

My friend recommended this place for their lavash bread, and it did not disappoint! Fresh, soft, and perfectly baked--great quality. The place was super busy, so there was a bit of a wait, but it was worth it. If you're looking for good lavash, this is the spot read more

If you're looking for fresh bread in Glendale, there are definitely dozens of bakeries to choose from. But there are a few reasons I would only come to K'arsi, Glendale's hidden gem of a bakery. This place is seriously a little hole in the wall and typically has a long line out it's doors. You will find goods here that resemble exactly what you would find in Yerevan. Definitely try their fresh lavash as well as their gata made with incredible puff pastry. read more

As I took a bite and noticed something hard, I immediately stopped to look -- and to my absolute horror, I saw a nail inside the pastry. I felt sick to my stomach, it was completely unacceptable. I couldn't believe it. It's hard to describe the level of disgust and fear I felt in that moment, knowing how easily I or someone else could have been seriously gotten sick. Also the fear of a child eating that same pastry and possibly getting food poisoned makes me beyond angry. The kitchen is the one place where all staff should be extra careful on following all health guidelines unfortunately they failed greatly on this. read more

Workers are not trained how to assist , few times went there and same thing. Probably owner is not even aware what is going there.

Best lavash in US. I stood in line for 2.5 hours or Xmas eve. And it was worth it. Super stretchy and yummy.

I will never come back to this bakery anymore. I found hair in the lavash and it was not even cooked well There are so many bakeries I can go and buy lavash not from here anymore. And the pastries are old soggy. read more

If you're coming for lavash, you will not be disappointed! It's delicious, soft, and chewy and I'm not too much of a bread person, per se. This is the reason I would recommend Karsi. The rest of the offerings are similar to any Armenian market in the area. I tried the lahmajoon and perashky and they were just ok. I knocked off a star for the line and parking. I feel there's a more efficient way to manage the wait times and line. I literally stood in line for 30 minutes just to buy bread. Also, I feel that the business needs to be responsible to their community and structure wherever people park a little more responsibly. read more

Amazing and pleasant greeting by Varduhi. The most authentic Armenian delicacies outside of Armenia or an Armenian Grandmother's kitchen!

I was hoping to grab some lunch on my way back to DTLA and someone had heard K'arsi was really good. I got there and noticed a line out the door and clearly no place to sit. But I was committed so I stood in line for 20 mins (on a Monday afternoon) and awkwardly (like a tourist in a foreign country) ordered some lavash and pastries. The lavash is apparently $1.65 / piece. And the pastries were reasonably priced. I was disappointed that I had to drive home to actually eat (no seating in that tiny bakery) but my car smelled like fresh bread the entire drive home. Feels good to be able to enjoy these ancient culinary traditions in LA. read more

Best lavash in LA. Hot out of the oven so when you bring it home make sure don't leave it in the plastic bag, air it few minutes.

This place was popping everytime I pass by! But turned into a nightmare. Me and my daughter went to check it out and brought my service dog. We immediately got turned away and harassed by the cashier and staff! I even showed them my dogs papers even tho they still disregarded it. I wish they were all trained to handle situations like this as really it's a bad look on your store. Fortunate enough the owners themselves contacted me and try to solve the issue but man the damage was done. Fair play but this is just a warning for those who has service animal. read more
