A three-generation family legacy. At the core of Zov’s success is its founding family.

Legendary chef and restaurateur Zov Karamardian opened the first Zov’s in 1987, building the brand from her passion for Mediterranean-inspired cooking alongside her husband, Gary. Over the years, her children have grown into key leadership roles, with son Armen serving as CEO and guiding the company’s expansion and strategic direction, while daughter Taleene leads creative and operational initiatives that shape the hospitality and guest experience. Zov’s granddaughter, Morgan, oversees branding and marketing, collaborating across locations – from Tustin to Irvine and Newport Coast – blending tradition, innovation, and a deep commitment to hospitality that has defined the brand for nearly four decades.
