In addition to traditional menu items, they also offer healthier options for those looking to avoid fried and fatty foods typically found at Uzbek restaurants. This is a great vegan/vegetarian choice in Samarkand, where options can be limited. This review was updated on August 10, 2022.

I ordered grilled **** and they had a strong taste of meat chicks I guess they do not want to go to the same thing.

In addition to various salads, many of which contain cheese or beef, there are also grilled vegetables and rice available as sides. The portion of grilled vegetables consisted of five slices of eggplant, mushroom, and pepper. The white rice was decent. The bean appetizer was tasty, but overall, the menu lacks variety. Meat lovers may enjoy the offerings here, and there is a selection of wine, beer, and liquor available.

He also informed me that the bread contains milk and the potatoes have butter. We enjoyed two delicious meals with excellent service in a beautiful setting. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. We had a two-course meal for two with wine, which came to about £29 with the service included.
