Spoiler: Simply the Best & Fresh Food
We know you love a good meal, and that's the main reason you found this website. But realistically how often are you willing to have the same food over and over again? Italian, Chinese, Mexican... Chinese, Mexican, Italian, and some burgers in-between...wouldn't you rather try something new and delicious, and then maybe, just maybe, accidentally discover a new favorite spot, a place where you are treated like a member of a family rather than a customer who signs the check?
Ararat is a different restaurant. You are not here for a quick bite and warmed-up frozen food. No pasta, sushi, or tacos either. But if you are in the mood for the tastiest shish kebab, hot kharcho in a pot, or sizzling lamb with vegetables, you came to the right place. We cook for you using only the freshest ingredients, and we do it with love. Whether you love meat assortments, healthy salads, or just hot tea (or Armenian coffee!) with yummy cakes, we can (and will) surprise you. Welcome to Ararat!

Amazing food and the friendliest owners! When you're here, you literally feel like family. Come in and relax. You definitely don't want to rush through this experience!

The food was absolutely amazing, and everything was delicious! We tried many different things from the menu and it was all awesome. Upon walking in, I wasn't quite sure what to make of the place (it was quiet and empty), but...it was worth it!!!!! I really liked the charm of the decorative dishes and chalices, and the service was great. Again, very authentic food and delicious.

Trader N Harmony
Wow such an amazing restaurant! A restaurant with outstanding food, cozy feeling and such a heartwarming service. The owner of restaurant, Irina, is such a kind hearted host and she exhibits her loving culture through her giving behavior. She gave us the best food recommendations, and personalized some of the meals to perfectly fit our preferences. Irina and her family treat her customers as if their guests at their home. We didn’t have to ask her to refresh our teas, because she was already on it! . If you want a cozy and family friendly restaurant with an extremely down to earth owner, ARARAT is for you!

A great change of pace. Russian food. Who knew it would be so good. So glad I went with an associate to give it a try. The family running it is nice too.

I came here because I was looking for Armenian food. This place did not disappoint. Just a heads up some items take an hour to make. The owner told me she likes to "make it special", so the food is fresh from the kitchen. I waited an hour and a half, but it was worth it. The dolma was out of this world and the chicken kebob was really good. I will come back to try the whole menu. The food is great and the owner is really nice, so this restaurant gets 5 stars from me.

Best food ever. Like just eat there you weirdo. After eating at Ararat my life had meaning. After eating the food you may or may not be able to read people minds, travel though time, and/or talk to small animals.

Alex Yampolsky
The food is just amazing! They get a little busy and it can take longer than you’d expect, but that’s because they make it all fresh and it is totally worth the wait!

Very good food. Fresh crispy veggies in salad, tender kebab, and authentic turkish coffee. Was pleasantly surprised by the bill. Will definately come back. Highly reccommend.

We moved from Chicago to Mundelein this year and we are obsessed with Ararat. It’s hands down our favorite restaurant, including all the terrific restaurants we miss from the city. The food is truly outstanding, as is the company. The new decor is classy, clean and welcoming, although we also loved the Eastern European feel pre-renovations. We hope it attracts customers that wouldn’t have thought to try it out before because once you try the food, you will be hooked. We are so grateful for Ararat!!!

Amazing food !!!

The owner was very helpful with the menu selection and brought some amazing food and coffee samples out to discover. I settled on my order. The service, food and quality were A+. Help support an small owned business. They definitely deserve it.
