Then more recently, the NYTimes also gave the restaurant a glowing review. Yerord is supposed to be an Armenian fusion type of restaurant serving a mixture of deli foods like Armenian inspired sandwiches and interesting takes on classics like pistachio hummus. So come join me in Glendale for an early Armenian dinner at Yerord Mas!
