The ambiance of this restaurant makes you feel like you're in Armenia, which is pretty great! The restaurant isn't too big, but there are seating options both inside and outside, mostly party sizes of 2-6 people. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. The food was delicious, the lahmajo was great, and big! The food was fresh and filling. We also had the summer salad, spas soup, dolma and the lamb. Enjoyed this place so much I went back twice during my week in Burbank. Definitely a wonderful place for authentic Armenian food. read more

We had a great experience at Tun Lahmajo! The staff was friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Parking was easy with street parking available, plus there's a small parking lot on the side if you can grab a spot. The patio seating is really cute and makes for a nice place to enjoy your meal. Every entrée we ordered was delicious, and the lahmajo was definitely a must try! It was flavorful, fresh, and something I'd happily order again. The summer salad was also incredibly refreshing and paired perfectly with the meal. read more

Totally crazy experience. The food was served cold, the appetizer came AFTER the main course, and I had to ask for my drink several times. I had almost finished my entire meal by the time my drink finally arrived -- and after all that waiting, they brought me the WRONG drink! The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is the lahmacun. The lahmacun is honestly 5 stars -- really delicious and probably the only thing I would order again. But I'm definitely not coming back to dine here. It's not worth dealing with this kind of service just for the lahmacun. Next time, I'll just order the lahmacun for pickup and get everything else from another restaurant. read more

I enjoyed my visit to Tun Lahmajo. The restaurant has an interesting décor and a cozy atmosphere that makes it a nice place to gather with friends and share a variety of dishes. Music was great too! I have to admit the name and spelling puzzled me a bit. As an Armenian, I'm used to seeing it spelled "lahmajoon," and "tun" would traditionally be "doon." But I digress. The lahmajoon had a different flavor profile than what I'm accustomed to, but it was still very good. The crust was perfectly crispy, and the meat topping was savory and satisfying. We also shared the chicken shawarma, Adjarakan, Imam Bayildi, and the house-made compote. The compote was especially delicious, and both the Adjarakan and Imam Bayildi were solid . My only note on the chicken shawarma is that it didn't really taste like shawarma to me. It was more like a crispy chicken wrap. It was tasty, just not what I expected based on the name. The biggest area for improvement is the service. Everyone was pleasant, but communication and efficiency could be better. We waited quite a while for a few items we requested and had to ask multiple staff members before receiving them. Overall, the food made the visit worthwhile, and I'd come back to try more of the menu. read more

I think this place has a lot of potential, but there are definitely areas that need improvement. The biggest issue is the lack of communication and coordination among the staff. Having multiple servers attending to the same table can be confusing and often leads to missed items, late orders, or mistakes with the food. The quality of the dishes is decent, but there is room for improvement in consistency and overall execution. The atmosphere has a unique charm and gives you a feeling of being transported to Armenia, which is a nice experience. However, while the cultural vibe is enjoyable, the service and food quality need more attention to make the overall dining experience truly exceptional. read more

Megrelian lahmajo - this is like the stuffed crust pizza of your dreams - all cheese. Definitely satisfyingly cheesy! The crust was nice, great texture, but not a very distinct flavor on its own. Super soft and delightful texture. I would order this again in a heartbeat. It's filling. Definitely for sharing. Went great with the other dishes we ordered as well. Jarko - flavor of the pork was good, but there wasn't every much of it in there. More meat would make this dish feel worth the price. The potatoes could have been a little more cooked for my dining partner's tastes, but they were nicely browned and had good flavor, along with the onions. We would get this dish again. Omelette with tomatoes - oh my gosh, I do *not* normally like tomatoes, but I ate this whole thing. No acidity, no sharp angry red flavor, just pure mellow soft texture and refreshingness. I came for the asparagus eggs, but they were out of asparagus, so I opted for the traditional tomatoes and I am so glad I did! I will definitely be back for this. They have many more ingredient options for their omelettes and I would love to try them all! They have so many delicious looking options that I know we will have to come back here many many more times. This space feels so comforting and welcoming. Tons of natural wood everywhere, a lovely outdoor patio with lots of shade, excellent adjustable awnings for the afternoon sun, old radios and tv and such make you feel like you are in the past of your childhood (if you're of the age where those things existed in your childhood!). Everything felt so personal and grounded. Their menu is beautifully crafted, as well, with gorgeous pictures and descriptions of the food. Service was very kind and knowledgeable, food was made with care and also served quickly. The atmosphere is chill, familial, and perfect for small groups. They have a small parking lot and there is also street parking along Irving. read more

As an Armenian I really wanted this place to blow me away but besides a few items on their menu the rest are extremely mid and you can tell they don't put effort into it. The items that are extremely good: Lahmajoun, fresh baked puri bread, shawarma. Things that were disappointing: Both khashlamas, the one in broth and the brothless one - extremely watered down with barely any meat for the price, tan/akroshka was not good. If they focus on quality this will be one of my top 10 LA restaurants read more

Such a beautifully authentic Armenian restaurant in Burbank. I always pass by at night and it always looks so lively and full, so my best friend and I finally stopped in for lunch during the week From the second we walked in, everyone was so warm and welcoming with big smiles, such a genuinely warm family feeling We sat outside on the patio and it was honestly so lovely. Fountain nearby. Gorgeous greenery. Classic Armenian music playing. Hearing Armenian and Russian around us made the whole experience feel even more special, and my best friend was even able to order in Russian with the staff We ordered the lahmajun with cheese and the plain lahmajun. The one with cheese was my favorite. They bring lemon to squeeze on top and it was so, so good. Crispy bread. Melty, stretchy cheese. Perfectly cooked meat. My friend also got borscht for her mom to go Super convenient parking lot adjacent to the restaurant plus plenty of street parking. Such a lovely lunch and such a beautiful atmosphere. I already know I'll be back If you've been thinking about trying this place, absolutely go read more

Our first time at this restaurant. This place was amazing. From food,service and ambiance. It felt like home. We cant wait to go back.

I'm glad that this place exists. It's such a nice representation of traditional Armenian cusine mixed with a variety of Georgian, Uzbeki, Lebanese, and other adjacent national dishes that are staples in Armenian households. The egg gondolas are awesome and the decor of this place is very cozy and inviting, both inside and outside. The prices are a little ridiculous, but alas, where aren't they these days? read more

Everything that we had here was delicious! This was my first time having lahmajo and I can't wait until I eat it again. The lahmajo with cheese was so good, I saw other tables that had a lahmajo per person. We also got the ker u sus which was good, spas with ishli which was so much lighter than I thought it would be and two drinks. I also really enjoyed the dessert. I normally don't like pakhlava but was very pleasantly surprised by this one because it wasn't too sweet. The interior is very cute with mismatched wooden decor and the exterior has nice outdoor seating. The staff were so friendly and gave lots of great suggestions of food to try. Parking is super easy on the street as well. read more

During my trip to LA, I had the pleasure of trying Armenian food for the first and second time. Which isn't tough to pull off in Glendale as the suburb of LA has a huge Armenian population. I stopped by for dinner on a Wednesday evening with my sister and her husband at 6:30. The restaurant wasn't too busy when we arrived, but it was at close to capacity by the time we met. Parking is a breeze in their complimentary lot. Ambiance (4/5): The vibe here makes me feel like this would be what it would be like to have a meal in the countryside in Armenia. We're talking lots of wood and old school decor. While we sat inside, they also have a patio with heaters (when the weather's cold). Service (3/5): Not the most friendly and efficient service, but they get the job done. Reminds me of the typical service you get in Europe. The one part that bothers me about this restaurant is their menu. For someone who isn't Armenian (and isn't familiar with the cuisine), the menu is tough to navigate. Menu items don't have descriptions. Even using Google to translate some items leads you to a dead end. They do have a QR code where you can see pictures of the food, which helps, but a description would help to get a better idea. Drinks (3.5/5): They don't have alcohol so that's something to keep in mind if it's important to you. I went with a glass of their lemonade. This is an example where the menu can be confusing. The menu says lemonade so I'm expecting your typical lemonade. Instead I get a purple lemonade as it's actually a berry lemonade. It's one of those situations where a more detailed menu would help. The lemonade was good, so not an issue, but I do like to know what I'm getting before I order it. Food (4/5): I started off with a side of bastirma which is a dried cured beef which is popular in Armenian cuisine. It tastes like salami and it was my first time trying it. I love to try new things and bastirma didn't disappoint. While I didn't order bread, they ended up bringing some anyway. I do recommend you get some bread while you're here. They have a bunch of different types and they have bread ovens, so it's something they're known for. For my main dish, I had a small ajarski (also known as khachapuri), a popular Georgian dish. It's boat-shaped cheese bread with two sunny side up eggs on top. It looks awesome and tastes just as good. And it's a filling meal. The small size was more than enough (they have a large size as well). I haven't had a good khachapuri since I went to a Georgian restaurant several years ago in Tampa. This one wasn't quite as good, as it was slightly overcooked, but it was still very, very solid. A treat for sure and something I can't find in Phoenix. Pro tip: they're known for their lahmajo bread. I typically order what a restaurant is all about, but in this case, I couldn't pass on the ajarski. read more

The food here is an acquired taste. My Armenian friends love it, but I find the food here rather bland. The service is just horrendous.

I never had Armenian food and decided to try this for the first time. It was so amazing!

We ordered appetizers, two entrees, and drinks, and waited almost an hour -- not only did the food never come out, but even the drinks never arrived. What made the experience especially frustrating was that during that entire time, nobody checked on our table even once. Eventually, someone finally came over and asked if we were still waiting for our food. After checking, they told us the order apparently never made it to the kitchen because the WiFi disconnected. Then the response was basically: "Oh...WiFi was disconnected...that's disappointing. Maybe next time." No genuine apology, no urgency, no accountability. Mistakes happen -- technology issues happen -- but customer service is how a restaurant handles those situations. The lack of communication and indifferent attitude was honestly more upsetting than the delay itself. We drove all the way there looking forward to dinner and left feeling frustrated and ignored. Really disappointing experience. read more

The food here was delicious! We did not know much of the food on the menu but the staff were really friendly and recommended us several options. As apps, we got the Blinchik which were good but a bit expensive for 2 small rolls. They were also bit oily for us. We loved the Emergency with Beef dish we got as well as the Lahmacun. They went really well eaten together and these will be what we get when we go back. The Adjarian was a bit too rich and creamy/cheese for me but my boyfriend and friend loved it and ate it up. We also added Basturma which was okay but not needed in the dish. read more

This place was unexpectedly delicious!!!! I keep having flashbacks about it. The Lahmajo was so good and the summer salad!

Came across this hidden gem after an airport run! My mom was visiting from Colorado and my son said "let's have Armenian food"...so we searched the web and came across this spot! They were busy on a Sunday...which was a good sign. We sat outside and although it was a chilly day, they had heat lamps and complimentary blankets...how awesome is that?! Now for the food: we started with their traditional Lahmajo which was perfect for 3 to share. Then we had the Bread in the stove to dip in the Imanbayadi and wow just wow what a pair! For our main selection we shared the Ostri with their fried potatoes...AMAZING! The potatoes were perfectly crisp and the Ostri was so flavorful but not overbearing. The meat was so tender and the broth was perfect. Everything we ordered was shared by 3 and we still took some leftovers! Great service, quaint spot, good food! We will definitely make the drive from Moorpark here again! So worth it! read more

Tun Lahmajo - Armenian Near Me - Burbank, California

Tun Lahmajo was a very cool restaurant. It is charmingly decorated like a cabin in the mid-1900s. The place is very Armenian which can complicate your experience but also proves it's authenticity. The menu is not always accurately translated and some of the things on the menu may not be available. But the staff was all very nice and accommodating. They will make recommendations and make sure you understand what you're ordering. The food we got was very hearty, flavorful, and unique. I loved the herbs used though I couldn't pinpoint which they were. The portions are perfect for sharing. I went with one other person and got three dishes and we ate them all. It would be great with a larger group to try more things as everything looks really good and there are a lot of dishes you don't find at other Armenian restaurants. This is not a cheap but but it isn't overpriced for what you get. read more

Tun Lahmojo really is a little taste and feel of Armenia, always a good time and always good food. I love that their menu keeps expanding and somehow just keeps getting better. Sitting here really transports me and makes me feel like I'm eating in Yerevan. I usually grab a couple of lahmajuns to go as a snack for the next day, they're so thin, light, and absolutely delicious. On my last visit, I tried the egg and mushroom omelette, and honestly I didn't expect much when I ordered it... but wow, it was perfect for breakfast. One small heads-up: the omelettes come with nothing on the side, no bread at all. I found that a bit surprising, especially with the tomato omelette since it has a more watery consistency and in Armenian culture it's usually eaten with bread. I just assumed it would come automatically, like it does at most places, so next time I'll know to order it on the side. Overall though, this place is fantastic, authentic flavors, unique dishes, and always something new to try. Definitely one of our go-to spots, and anyone we introduce this place to loves it! read more

I accidentally drove by and noticed this restaurant and decided to stop in to have lunch. It's a bit hidden but well worth the stop! Once I walked in it felt so cozy and everyone was so accommodating and happy. They also have outside seating along the side of restaurant. Decor is very charming and really enjoyed my meal. It was delicious - plus it is only less than a mile away off of Glenoaks from where I am moving to in Burbank! Yeah! I plan on going there again tomorrow and bringing one of my friends. Enjoy! read more

Tun Lahmajo is a narrow but comfortable patio that plays lively Armenian music. Lahmajo: The oblong-shaped lahmajo is a super thin Armenian pizza. The flatbread is thin as a cloth and crispy as a cracker. There's a light spread made of ground beef, tomatoes, red bell peppers, garlic, and herbs. Squeeze the lemon wedge for extra bright and tangy flavor. Ostri: This is a flavorful soup of stewed beef strips. The stewed tomatoes and red/yellow bell peppers are tantalizingly soft, about to melt into the broth. Dining Area: There's are many tables at the back of the restaurant and many along the side covered patio. Parking: There's a big lot on the side. read more

*Delayed post from June '25 Tun Lahamajo is a great date night spot for foodies and vibes in general. While there were a few hiccups during our visit, I still recommend trying it out. Before the pandemic, this was a pizza place that has since been taken over by a new owner establishing a second location for a well-known eatery in Glendale with the same name. The outdoor seating was updated to offer more parking spaces, while continuing to provide an intimate space filled with warm wood textures, string lights, and lots of greenery. The inside is also well decorated with an old charm to it and more seating for larger parties. It took a while to be waited on in the beginning, but the food came out rather quickly and in waves that allowed for grazing without our food getting cold. My only major gripe is that they don't serve tap water. I'd read other reviews that said this and assumed it must have been a temporary issue, but it seems like the owners don't trust the Burbank water system, which sounds like a legal issue... but maybe they can clarify with a response as to why they don't offer it? I'd recommend bringing our own water bottle if necessary, or try their citrusy, Sea Buckthorn unsweet tea that comes in a large pot enough for two. Thankfully they do offer their dishes on reusable dishware for those who are looking for a waste conscious dining option. This was my first time trying Lahmajo, an Armenian style flatbread that's thin and crispy, with a little bit of doughiness in the middle and burnt edges that come with baking in a stone oven. The ground beef smeared over the top reminded me of minced sausage with aromatic seasoning similar to fennel. They serve it with a wedge of lemon and the acidity pairs extremely well with the flavors. There is a cheese option, but we went without since we also ordered the Adjarian, similar to an Indian kachapuri, which features large amounts of cheese and an egg in a buttery bread boat. My only criticism with this dish is it needs more seasoning and spice, something like sriracha or spicy peppercorn and a hint of acidity, to break up the large amount of fat and bread. Lastly we ordered the Ker u sus, which reminded me of beef stew in the best way, but with less broth and more sauce. Beef chunks are accompanied by potatoes, sweet peppers, peas, and carrots in a thick tomato sauce. The potatoes are more like fries and are slightly undercooked to give it a bite. The fresh parsley on top pairs really well as expected and we ate it by scooping it up with the Lahmajo. read more

My second visit here was disappointing , we came party of 5 in a not busy restaurant around 8pm . The server came to our table 20 minutes later to ask us what we want to order when we didn't even have a menu , he apologized and brought us the menus then took him another 20 minutes to come back to our table to take just drink order and when we told him that we are ready to order food too he told us he will be right back (I don't think they know that people who want in a restaurant are hungry). He approached again and we asked questions about some items and if he recommends anything and he says I can bring it to you and u tell me if u liked it or not like wtf ? The bartender inside was almost falling asleep while making the non alcoholic drinks and owners or managers in front of the door smoking . Never coming back read more

PARKING-there is a small parking lot on the side of the restaurant. Plenty of street parking around too. AMBIANCE: The restaurant has a small outdoor patio on the side near the parking lot and the inside is mid size with about 7-8 tables with average of 4 seats per table. They have very fun, classic retro decor. MENU: it was hard to figure out what to eat. There's a QR code for the online menu that includes photos but it would be really helpful if there was also a description of the entrees ie does it contain meat, what type of cheese, vegetables. We had to ask a lot of questions or recommendations from the waiter. SERVICE: we did have a large party but the waiter messed up our order. Everyone had gotten their food except one person. Our party member asked twice if it was coming. The first time, one waiter said it was ordered and coming in 5 min. The 2nd time, the waiter said it already arrived and someone took it. We're not sure how there was a mix up but usually waitstaff should know who ordered what and deliver food to that person. No apologies from waitstaff but only asked if we wanted the order to be reordered. By this time everyone was almost done so the party member didn't want to order food and was rightfully upset. Again no apologies from waitstaff or waitstaff should have asked the waiter who took our order and compared it with the orders that were brought to each person. FOOD: Food was overall good. Would recommend ppl to try as it seems pretty authentic. Also no alcohol served here and they also do not allow to bring your own for a corkage fee. CHECK: they don't split checks read more

After a visit to Descanso Gardens to see the beautiful blooming tulips (go! they will only be there one more week ...) we decided to try Tun Lahmajo for lunch. I have seen it posted about several times recently and we are not familiar with Armenian food. The menu is in Armenian and english and the clientele is all Armenian except for us - a good sign. They are doing a busy business the entire time we were there. We looked at pics and other tables and decided to have: lahmajo with cheese - a delicious thin flatbread with a meaty onion sauce and cheese; in was indescribably good and everyone seemed to order it adjarian - pizza boat of cheese with egg and butter on top, rich and decadent lamb ribs - 4 generous ribs and veggies, cooked and seasoned well Service was very friendly. Could not have enjoyed more. Who knew Armenian food was this delicious? Me NOW. read more

Came to this place on Sunday afternoon for lunch. The first red flag was when the waitress started serving our table with white IKEA plates that had chips on them. In my experience, it is very unprofessional for a restaurant to serve food on chipped plates. When we were given the menu, the waitress did not mention that they were having issues with the grill and were not serving grilled items at the time. That was very disappointing because Armenian cuisine is famous for grilled meat. We were actually planning to order grilled pork ribs and lamb chops, so we were surprised when the waitress told us they were unavailable. We came with kids, and they were hungry. We didn't have time to drive around looking for another place, so we ordered a cheese pizza. It came with a lot of greens on top. I asked for the greens to be served on the side because my daughter would not eat it that way, but I would have added the greens myself. The pizza arrived without greens, had no flavor, and no greens were brought on the side. No apology either. The eggplant salad had no taste at all -- no salt, pepper, or garlic. I have never tasted such a flavorless salad in any Armenian restaurant in the U.S. or abroad. Another dish with meat and cheese (I don't remember the name) arrived slightly burned and extremely oily. The meat was completely covered in oil and fat. Not tasty either. The last order was shawarma for one of the kids. We waited 15-20 minutes after all the other dishes had already been served. The child sat there patiently waiting. After a long time, and with our original waitress never checking on us, we asked another waitress to look into the order. A different waiter passing by assured us that he saw it almost ready and that it would be served soon. We waited another 7-10 minutes. Then the same waiter who had assured us it was almost ready came to our table and, without hesitation or apology, told us we had two options: wait another 10 minutes or cancel the order. It was extremely rude and inappropriate. I honestly haven't experienced service this bad in a very long time. The child was still hungry, so we agreed to wait. But after we made our decision, the waiter did not even go back to the kitchen right away. He first stopped at another table to take an order and then served drinks to another table before finally going to the kitchen. Very unprofessional. At that point, everyone at our table was already upset, and a friend of mine quietly said a curse word -- not directed at the waiter personally, but at the entire situation. The waiter stopped by our table and started lecturing us about manners because we were "in public." Manners? Seriously? About 10 minutes later, we finally received the shawarma. The girl who ordered it ate only half because it was not tasty either. We paid the waitress who originally took our order and never once checked on our table afterward. No tip. Very disappointed. As we were walking out, the same "manners teacher" waiter stopped us and asked, "Wait, did you pay?" That was unbelievably inappropriate. I replied, "Do we look like we're running away?" and kept walking without continuing the conversation. Please go to this place only if this is the type of service you are looking for. Hopefully, the owner will do something about it. read more

I'd been wanting to try this restaurant since the Bill Addison (LA Times) said it's "L.A.'s best new Armenian restaurant." 2 of us split the summer salad, lentil soup, lahmajo, and lahmajo with cheese. With a diet coke and Armenian coffee, total $46 before tax + tip, and had leftovers. Very affordable lunch. Dinner entrees were $20-$28 I'd like to try. Service was fast and friendly, the server recommended splitting everything. Ambiance was nice - I forgot to check out the back wall which had pictures of either family or famous Armenians. Rainy day, so we sat inside which was almost too hot, so outside would have been better since it wasn't actually raining and it was covered. My first time trying Lahmajo, which is like pizza with a naan crust. Very flavorful without being too filling. The summer salad is similar to Greek salad without the olives, very fresh and perfect cucumbers and tomatoes. Perhaps the best lentil soup I've ever had. Definitely recommend splitting dishes if you want to try everything. The Armenian coffee was like espresso, but very smooth and not overpowering like some places. Didn't try dessert. They have baklava, sweet bread, some sort of caramel cake. Big plus they make all desserts in house. So I'd like to return to try the dinner entrees and desserts. One thing we noticed - not sure if it's a cultural thing or what - 2 tables only ate about half their food, and didn't take the leftovers. Seems such a shame the day after the end of the government shutdown which halted SNAP benefits, leaving many people hungry. read more

I kept reading about this place in the LA Times and finally made the 45 minute drive out here to Burbank. Was it worth it? Yes. We liked the Lahmajo with cheese way better than the one without. The Cornish hen with fries was very good as well. It was juicy and the skin was crispy and delicious. The fries served with that dish were even better slightly dipped in the grease. The side of fries were good and no ketchup needed. The bf liked the beef shaurma and his summer salad. I read a review that said to bring your own water, so I did, but ended up ordering a Mexican Coke. The service was great at the beginning, but once it got busy they kind of forgot about us. The ambiance is cool vibes. The floor at the table we sat at was very sticky. I hate that. My sandals made a noise every time I moved them. Don't move them then. It's black with sneaker designs underneath me. Will we come back again? Sure. read more

I hate that I have to do this because I was so excited to give this place a try as my spouse is Armenian. Unfortunately as soon as I walked in I was greeted by a frustrated sigh and an eye roll, Armenian hospitality? A Parskahay would never. I'm embarrassed we brought friends who now have this first impression of Armenian culture. After 30 minutes of waiting for tap water, we got bottled water and a nice surprise on the bill at the end. We got charged for things we ordered that never made it out to the table and when we brought it up they said they ran out of it. Never even considered restaurant check fraud but hey not everyone can own a body shop in Tujunga. We had to get up and grab our own plates and napkins and we even saw TWO, count em, TWO mice in the planter and on the string of lights. YIKES! Success might chase Tun lahmajo, but they are faster. Che merci. read more
