Restauracja Muzealna Ormiańskie Piwnice
Set in the cellars of a 17th-century Armenian merchant's house on the north side of the Main Market Square, serving Armenian and local Zamość dishes.
The restaurant is in the cellars of a 17th-century Armenian townhouse on the north side of the Main Market Square, next to the Town Hall. It is connected to the Zamość Museum and has an atmospheric vaulted cellar. The menu blends Armenian and Zamość regional flavors: buckwheat dumplings with bacon and mushroom sauce, which won a prize at a food festival; seasonal nettle soup; Biłgoraj pie, a local pie with buckwheat and potato filling served with forest mushroom sauce; grape leaf rolls; Armenian kebabs; and cheese khachapuri. Desserts include baklava with ice cream. Expect about 50–90 złoty per person, and book ahead for weekend evenings.
