A good place, simple and delicious food. I came here twice for samsa - very tasty, fresh, hot, crunchy and juicy at the same time!
There are always a lot of people, both locals and tourists. They serve you quickly. The atmosphere of the oriental bazaar.
Before asking for a check,
it is better to estimate how much comes out from the menu. But even "with a margin" is not expensive!
You have to be prepared for the fact that this is a snack bar in the bazaar. There is no menu, but there is a banner with dishes without prices at the entrance. A cauldron with pilaf and samsa on the street, this is exactly what is available. They took manta rays, it was delicious, the tortillas were cut off as stolen, but they took money for it. Salad with tomatoes is edible, but tomatoes of the brat variety, They are more suitable for pickling. They don't wipe the tables, I put it in order with my napkin. The locals eat there, they didn't catch poisoning. Inexpensive (manta rays 2 servings, a small fanta, salad, flatbread cost 75 thousand), the order was accepted by a friendly adult lady, speaks Russian
If you want to feel the atmosphere of the oriental bazaar and national flavor, get into the national cuisine - you are here. Do not expect an exquisite menu and restaurant serving, 100% hygiene and knowledge of molecular cuisine. Everything is simple and delicious. This is an oriental bazaar and that says it all.
Don't expect great restaurateur arts here.The food is excellent.
Manta rays melt in your mouth. The beef cradle is just super. Napoleon is worse than in "mini kebab.". The shurpa is of medium quality. But! Everything is fast and efficient.
You can sit or lie down well. I didn't like the kebab, one fat, the rest of the dishes are quite good. There is a menu with prices, but the cost of service is added there arbitrarily, they added 30% to me. Shish kebab 20000, salad 10000, manti 40,000 serving 5 pieces.
In general, it is traditional for market places. There is a menu with prices, but the total cost should be checked when calculating (however, as everywhere in Uzbekistan). I didn't like Samsa - it was very dry, a lot of dough and little filling. The kebab roll and manti were good, Lagman liked it very much. It's simple, quite tasty and cheap.
Everything is super delicious! We took samsa, shurpa, tea - everything is delicious! It was the first meal we ate in Uzbekistan! We were very satisfied
Great place! You can sit on the veranda, towering over the bazaar, eat delicious and inexpensive food, watch how samsa is baked. We especially liked the chicken kebab, samsa
The rest is also delicious. There is no menu as such. We visited several times) we will be back in Samarkand, let's go again!

We arrived in Samarkand for 1 day, went to the market and got hungry
We decided that a cafe in the market with so many good reviews should be good
And nothing like that!
They brought us manta rays WITH MOLD
I'm shocked, how much should they stand? A week without a Refrigerator?
The waitress apologized and took it away, but we were very surprised
In short, if you're going to eat here, first take a very close look at what's on the plate
I wanted a market flavor, but ...It's a sad place..tea, it seems, was brewed more than once before us - as a result, clear water. There is NO fresh vegetable salad. Tea with lemon? There is NO lemon. To the question "Is there a flatbread?" They answered honestly, "Yes. TOUGH."...ON THE MARKET! where there are lemons, vegetables and tortillas in abundance! The barbecue is mediocre. Summary: visiting this place was a mistake. It's good that you didn't get poisoned. A curtain.
I chose this place because there were a lot of locals there. But in the end, a complete disappointment. The beef kebab was very hard, it felt like I was chewing a stone, while there was a lot of fat. I don't recommend it. Samsa and manta rays are delicious. The service is fast. When calculating, the bill was not given, they counted on the calculator and said the amount was 16 thousand more, like for service. This is 30% of the order amount, although it was not written anywhere in the menu. Therefore, be careful, specify the service fee in advance.
A great place to serve delicious pilaf, kebabs and samsa. They cook on the spot in front of you.
The process itself is also worth taking the time to do it. The skill and beauty of the chef's performance are amazing!
Have a drink of green tea. Ask for the 95th, it is the most fragrant and soft. After pilaf, it's a miracle how good it is!
Ordinary and delicious food. Lagman (like almost all other dishes) for 15,000 som.

ask for prices for everything in advance, otherwise when calculating what is not specified becomes twice as expensive as the rest, and the service is considered +30% to the bill.
