The 10 best spots for lagman in Tashkent

Great food and service. My server also spoke English, which was a bonus.

first time in Tashkent and the most delicious pilaf I've ever tried. the arugula salad was also delicious and the flatbread was excellent

very cozy local plov restaurant, lovely home made fresh plov, perfect service, some staff had good english and were all very kind. they offered us a special tea after the meal and also they desserts selection was very good. i would definetely come back!

Great to experience Plov in a traditional setting. Tasty and at a very reasonable price.

Great food and authentic uzbek dishes. The horse meat pulav tastes amazing. From the street, it looks more like a meat chop shop than a restaurant. So do not go here for the ambience, but for the food. They also have good selection of salads. Chicken, beef, lamb and horse is served as meat.

I whish I could remember the name of the waitress that helped, because she was awesome. She accepted usd, which was all I had. She help navigate the menu as my translator wasn't working and select the vegetairan plates I wanted. The food tasted really good and the serving size was perfect.

Really one of the most tasty “plov” you can try in Tashkent. I was here in a warm & windy night in the city on this beautiful street full of bars and restaurants. Waiters and owner were amazing, English speaking and the plov amazing . One place to try if you want to spend a dinner with tipical Uzbek food . Must try

A very cool meat market, but it’s all the same. There’s an upstairs with dried fruits, spices, nuts and seeds. The sellers are very engaging and try to convince you to stop at every stand. Hygiene isn’t of huge concern, the smell of death is in the room and birds wander and poop right in the goods. I’ll label this one “authentic”.

It's great that there are places like this that create and maintain the city's history and character. You can eat, shop, and simply observe the people and their lives. A must-see.

Excellent shopping district. There is everything. Even Souvenirs & cloths for tourists. Bargain hard & you will get a good price. Flowers, seeds, grocery, clothes, shoes, etc.

I’ll be honest, blue dome looks amazing. But inside upon entering is meat and only meat. Outside much better so many options to explore like shop or eat food or clothes etc. get ready to give at least 2 hrs to see small part.

I really love this area. The the best place to eat and let your imagination take you to what happened right where your eating a thousand years ago. That spot was the very crossroads of the silk road..

A very, very large market with an 800-year history—although the current building itself is only about 60 years old. But the market is far bigger than just the main structure. On the ground floor inside the building, you’ll find meat, dairy products, and other meat-based goods. The second floor is more earthy, offering spices, dried herbs, and nuts. Surrounding the central building in a circular layout is a massive market full of fruits, vegetables, and fresh produce. There’s an incredible abundance and variety at different price points. One challenge you may face as a tourist is that prices are usually not displayed on the goods. Many of the vendors also don’t speak English, which can make buying a bit tricky. The lack of clear pricing might give you a slight sense of insecurity—making you wonder if you’re being quoted a different price just because you’re a tourist. Still, overall, it’s a very exciting and fascinating experience. Be cautious with the dried fruit and nut sellers—they’re the most insistent and pushy, which gave me a sense of discomfort. The market is full of energy, movement, and life. It’s truly a sight to see. If you explore even further beyond the fresh produce area, you’ll find lots of beautiful handicrafts and souvenirs—and I’d say the prices here are cheaper than in Samarkand or Bukhara.too!

Authentic place to see The sellers are but more aggressive than other places in Uzbekistan The prices are better than in Bukhara or Samarkand I did see two people throwing up there Birds are pooping into the goods so don’t buy stuff if you are very careful about hygiene

(Translated by Google) Today I got nothing but barbecue, they haven’t made manta rays for a long time, they say (Original) Сегодня пришел ничего кроме шашлыка, манты давно не делают говорят

We had dinner here our last night in Uzbekistan and really enjoyed it. The outside courtyard area was very atmospheric. The service was good and the food was very good for the most part. Unfortunately they were out of plov but we had a number of other good dishes. The salad with charcoal cooked eggplant and other veg was particularly good. Lamb skewer a bit gristly but all other dishes were very good. Would definitely recommend.

Hidden gem… this is a must to visit. Atmospheres and ambient, decor were absolutely gorgeous. The food was amazingly sophisticated and tasty. The service provided by Jantas - it was excellent and he made my day. My last supper in Tashkent was unforgettable:)

Amazing restaurant and staff that took care of us and served us food promptly and happily. Very tourist friendly and has English menus and English speaking staff. Highly recommend the lamb dumplings

Visited in September 2025. Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 Tashkent. We stumbled upon Caravan on our guide’s recommendation, and it didn’t disappoint. The multi-story space is grand, with summer terraces and a wooden interior exuding Eastern elegance—apparently a favorite among celebrities, adding a touch of allure. FOOD: The restaurant specializes in Uzbek cuisine, and we came for the plov, available in two varieties: a festive “wedding” version and a leaner, steamed-rice option. Both were delightful, with tender, fluffy rice, sweet carrots, raisins, and meat, each with its own charm. The leaner version won us over with its varied meats and sweet accents like raisins, though both were excellent. The mini samsas were a highlight—flaky, crispy dough packed with a generous, juicy meat filling that didn’t skimp on flavor. The brisket, however, was a miss. Expecting a juicy, fatty, hosper-grilled cut, we got a dry, almost overcooked version reminiscent of basturma, though its smoky flavor added some charm. Complimentary salads and spreads were a nice touch, rounding out the meal. SERVICE: The service was friendly and welcoming, with dishes arriving fairly quickly. While not the most polished or efficient, the staff’s warmth made the experience pleasant enough. VERDICT: Caravan is a solid choice for traditional Uzbek cuisine, steeped in history and popular among tourists looking to experience local flavors. With its spacious, beautifully designed setting and tasty food, we left satisfied. It’s a great spot to showcase Uzbekistan’s culinary heritage, and we recommend it for a flavorful, atmospheric dining experience.

Average food probably not better than what you can find in a supermarket. Lamb was awful: just skin, fat, ribs and a little layer of meat. The meat itself was dry and bad tasting. I have to confirm the other negative reviews: over-expensive and poor quality. Decadent environment... Btw, I got a dirty dish, as well the table cloth was stained.

The highlight is really the atmosphere here: the restaurant is beautiful and the live music is amazing. A great immersive experience for tourists. The food was ok, hit and miss dishes: -dolma 6/10 -samsa meat 5/10 (chewy lamb) -samsa potato 7/10 -Georgian Kinkalis 10/10 (amazing taste) -borscht 8/10 Caravan seems to be a chain as we had their food in the mountains also and seemingly they have a restaurant in Khiva also. Staff spoke English and were very professional. However, this was also our most expensive meal in a week across Uzbekistan, paid 470,000 UZS (27 GBP) for two. I recommend you sit in the garden outside rather than upstairs which has less atmosphere. Takes credit cards.

Caravan Uzbek offers delicious traditional dishes with a cozy atmosphere. The food is authentic, portions are generous, and the service is friendly. A great spot to enjoy Uzbek cuisine in Tashkent.

This is a very high-end restaurant. Plov 170,000soʻm Beer(0.5l) 100,000soʻm (including all tax and service) You get to eat in a high-end setting that's hard to access on a regular basis, there's a wide selection of alcoholic drinks, and the staff are very efficient. I feel that these services and the atmosphere of the place are what increase its value. The portions are large quantity.

It was the first day in Uzbekistan when we discovered this place while walking around. The food was really good and after eating in different cities, I can say that the best plov to my taste was here. Our waiter Nurillo and Muslim were both very good in terms of recommendations and serving.

Food was decent not outstanding, but solid. Delicious eggplant salad and cauliflower. Nohat Shurak and Sea Bass were fine but a bit lackluster and flat. Price on higher end for Uzbek standards

Nice service and delicious food! I really enjoyed the ambience. I ordered the fried lagman and pumpkin somsa, and before the food arrived, they served complimentary bread. Everything tasted great. I’ll definitely come back again. Highly recommended!

Great quality, authentic atmosphere and amazing service. The host was polite and found a place. I got a compliment from the institution. In general I was impressed by the place. Highly recommended. P.s. Sherzod personally the Best.

Amazing service by waiter Muslim! The food was incredible. So was the vibe. And I can’t believe how affordable.

Really enjoyed this place. The atmosphere was nice and the music gave it a good vibe. The meze were tasty and the chicken shish was cooked well. Our waiter Axror was polite and attentive, which made the experience even better. Overall, a comfortable spot with good food. I’d come again.

A good place if you want to learn about food culture of Uzbekistan. Plov is one of the best i had in central asia

Authentic uzbek food can be found there. The shop sign only has its uzbek name and not National food, it was a bit hard to plot the maps to get to this place. Food served is delicious, lots of lamb based dishes. There is also horse salad for the adventurous.

very good taste of local food

FIRST DAY Food: I've ordered Samsa and Lamb Plov. They were good enough but not up to the high reputation of uzbek food Service: foreigners are being ignored, as others noticed. You have to shout at the waiters to receive a 10s precious attention SECOND DAY Food: I've ordered Koza Shorba, Assorti and Naan this time. Good enough again Service: knowing from previous day i've shouted to the waiter and he came immediately to make the order and the check

kind of an adventure, but a funny one: first of all, no ones speaks english. Second we askde fir a menu, but they didnt understand. So, we went outside to the preparation area and by imitating horse, cow and sheep sounds we could at least figure out, what kind of meat it was. We had a lot of fun with the waitress. In the end we ordered 2 times horse: BESHBARMAK noodle dough in broth topped with horse sausage - very salty, NARYN cold cut mini noodles mixed with horse - very yummy, mutton Soup- very intense, HALEEM wheat mixed with meat- looks like brown oatsmeals- slimy but very tasty. mixed something- potatoes, mutton, and shishkebap and finally a kind of tzatziki. We payed 240.000, it was very tasty, unusual, funny. So, if you go there, make sure, you know all the animal sounds or download an offline translator ;-)

Genuine and authentic uzbek food, with a nice assortment of different dishes. With very generous portions. Very friendly environment and huge thanks for the staff for doing their best to explain me all the buffet offer.

Authentic Uzbek cuisine. Mostly meat based with only a few veggie salad options. The meat is certainly good quality and well flavoured. The outdoor seating area is great for people watching. Some of the staff members speak good English. No menu but can order by the food counter which makes the whole experience even more enjoyable.

We recently dined at Khiva restaurant and had an enjoyable experience. The food was well-cooked and flavorful. The portion sizes were generous, which was a pleasant surprise. We tried the tikka, which was supposed to be spicy, but it wasn't as hot as we expected. However, that didn't take away from the overall quality and taste of the dish. We loved the food and would definitely consider returning for another meal.

We are UAEs Food Connoisseurs & Luxury Travel advisors, connect with us on Insta @vibrant_wanderer_rhythm Located at the Hyatt Regency Tashkent is the Uzbek restaurant Khiva Interior contemporary, wiz a wiz the traditional expectation one might have from the pics on social media. Service level , satisfactory. We tried the Vegetable Somsa, which is like the Indian samosa just baked and subtle in taste . Chicken tikka not an Uzbek dish but we craved something more spicy. However it wasn’t spicy. All in all 4/5 Hyatt doesn’t maintain hygienic facilities for the common / lobby areas. Guess that’s why we didn’t stay here. Enjoy.

I also came here with the rave reviews but found the food mediocre. The soup of the day was good and the portion sizes are large. The humus dip was bland but the local bread was really good (hard to go wrong though?). The lamb skewer was the real winner of the meal. The staff was super friendly, spoke great English and the atmosphere was really nice and professional. The terrace is nice for the evening.

We came for lunch but we didn't expect the restaurant to be in Hyatt hotel (didn't check properly) Food was tasty, special mention to the cheesecake However we had to wait 45min to get the order whereas we were the only ones in the restaurant, in such a place with high price, it's not correct

The dinner at khiva was not upto Mark at all. We asked for soy honey stir fried beef. No honey in it. Asked for crispy potato pakora. No salt. Inside only batter n not cooked inside. Dissapointing for Hyatt hotel to hv such menu n chefs need training in different cuisine if you want to put on your menu. Service was good. Staff was eager to serve. The berry icecream was too good. The rates are higher compared to the outside.

I came hear seeing the reviews of so many people for the best pilav. I would not rate them more than 3 star for the pilav. Ambience is good staffs are good and speaks english. But if you are here for a good pilav i think its not right place. I have not tried other food may be its good.

This is a hotel restaurant and as a result the prices are much higher than other restaurants in Tashkent. However the food and service is good. I paid 385000 som for meat somsa, veg somsa, kleftiko, 2x sprites.

Best lagman I ever tried in tashkent

Best lagman I tasted in the city

Delicious

(Translated by Google) The food is delicious, so this is not the first time we order delivery. But the food packaging is terrible. Simply pour the soup into a container and do not wrap it with stretch. That's why half the soup is always in the bag. Wrap containers in cling film like other establishments do! Hot food containers become deformed and everything spills (Original) Еда вкусная, поэтому мы заказываем не в первый раз доставку. Но упаковка еды ужасная. Просто наливают суп в контейнер и не оборачивают стрейчем. Поэтому пол супа всегда в пакете. Оборачивайте контейнеры пищевой пленкой, как делают другие заведения! Контейнеры от горячей еды деформируются и все проливается

(Translated by Google) Hello, today we decided to have lunch in Riviera at Lagman 24. We ordered 4 items: 1. Manti with meat and with zhusai, they served it cold. 2. Kuksi, this is a whole other story, the kuksi broth was sweet like sweet tea, the meat was apparently fried yesterday at 5 am, and for some reason with the addition of cumin. 3. Salad "Lansai" - funchose was wooden with an incomprehensible smell, apparently they cooked the same way yesterday at 5 am. 4. Dzhusairu for some reason everything was overcooked and not fresh. This is both about the food and the staff, the cashier for some reason does not have the etiquette skills to communicate with customers, and the staff in the kitchen is apparently too tired to cook deliciously. For the first time we wanted to try Lagman 24, but unfortunately this will be the last time!!! (Original) Здраствуйтк, решили сегодня пообедать в Ривьере в Лагман 24. Заказали 4 позиции: 1. Манты с мясом и с жусаем, подали хололные. 2. Кукси, это вообще отдельеая история, бульон кукси был сладкий как сладкий чай, мясо видимо жарили вчера в 5 утра, и почему то с добавоением зиры. 3. Салат "Лансай"- фунчоза была деревяной с непонятным запахом, видимо готовили так же вчера в 5 утра. 4. Джусайру почему то всё пережарено и не свежо. Это что касаемо еды, что касаемо персонала, кассир почему то не имеет навыков этикета общения с клиентами, а персонал на кухне видимо уже слишком устал что бы вкусно готовить. В первые хотели попробовать Лагман 24, но к сожалению это будет в последний раз!!!

(Translated by Google) I ordered from this restaurant for the first time, I ordered dumplings in broth and manti, I don’t know how they cook but the dumplings in broth were disgusting, I threw this food in the trash, the manti were so-so, in the end I spent 60k and was not satisfied, the meat had absolutely no taste, as if I was eating dough and that’s it (Original) Заказал из этого ресторана впервые, заказал пельмени в бульоне и манты , я незнаю как они готовят но пельмени в бульоне было отвратительное я выбросил эту еду в мусорку, манты так себе , в итоге я потратил 60к сумм и остался недовольным , вкус мясо абсолютно нету, как будто я ел тесто и все

I ordered food from their menu but they brought me something different , fries that comes with it was too old,beef was dry and hard to eat. Prices are very high 👎I don’t recommend

Inexperienced waiters (one forgot to bring our ordered French fries; he forgot that he's was serving us, etc); not fresh meals, undercooked meals... Can't recommend it...

Other reviews say food is good . However I will avoid anywhere with tourist buses literally parked outside - and massive tourist groups inside.

A small good place with delicious food.

Delicious food

(Translated by Google) A very mixed impression... after a long break. Previously, the children's playground was in the basement, but now it is located on the 2nd floor, where, as I understand it, there was a celebration hall. For me, the general atmosphere in the room was a little uncomfortable. My wife praised the kitchen! But the children's area has increased significantly, and now it is not just a playground, but an entire multi-level structure. (Original) Очень не однозначное впечатление... после долгого перерыва. Раньше детская площадка была в подвале, а теперь её расположили на 2м этаже, где как я понимаю был зал для торжеств. Для меня общая атмосфера в помещении оказалась немного не уютной. Жена похвалила кухню ! Зато намного увеличилась детская зона, и теперь это не просто площадка, а целое многоуровневое строение.

(Translated by Google) Very tasty cuisine. Large children's playground. Large selection of fast food and pizzas. Every weekend there is a large children's show program with animators and competitions for children. Fast and competent service. Mass children's events can be held. (Original) Очень вкусная кухня.

We were expecting more, food was ok, nothing special. Don’t drive there to waste your time. Service was good though. Atmosphere is a long story, restrooms are awful, besides it’s an old style, there is no sink to wash your hands or toilet paper. Overall don’t go there,

Fast service

(Translated by Google) Very tasty Uyghur cuisine. This is my second time in Uzbekistan, I have visited different cafes and restaurants, and the food here is the most delicious so far. The freshest and most tender lamb, warm service and friendly owner. And all this for quite modest prices. Tukhum sai and khoshan are simply amazing. (Original) Очень вкусная уйгурская кухня. Я второй раз в Узбекистане, побывал в разных кафе и ресторанах, и здесь пока что самая вкусная еда. Свежайшая и нежнейшая баранина, радушное обслуживание и дружелюбный хозяин. И всё это за вполне скромные цены. Тухум сай и хошан - просто восхитительно.
