I would like to applaud this restaurant for its service, food, ambience and overall experience they provide which continues to uphold its standards since the day it opened. The food is amazing! Every time! I would especially like to thank our server, Alex, who went above and beyond to make sure we were happy from the minute we sat down to the time we left. Bravo!!!

Great ambience... the waiters are amazing and the food is delicious. Wish they had an outside patio.

We had an amazing dining experience . Chicken kebab was the best I've ever tried , juicy and full of flavor , beef kebab was simply melting in the mouth . Service was friendly and attentive . We will be back

The food here is fantastic. If you like Uzbek or Russian food, go here. I ordered the: Cheese cigars: this was excellent, would recommend. It comes with a sauce Navruz Salad: I loved this, definitely could be a meal in itself but best if shared Herring: really good and I loved the potatoes that came with it. The herring does have bones. Mixed Spreads Platter: this is similar to standard middle eastern spreads, but it also has kimchi and pickled vegetables, which was a nice touch. The place is BYOB and there are 2 liquor stores nearby. The service was amazing, the staff was sweet and accommodating.

Loved this place, the food was good, beets salad and plov that I got were delicious and flavorful. I also stole a bite of chicken shashlik from my friend's plate and it was so juicy, tender and well seasoned. Our server was very attentive and did a great job on recommendations. I did like the interior, however it was chilly inside during the whole meal, and I was not fully enjoying my food with a constant cold. But if you are in the area - highly recommend to stop by!

Bounding and astounding, weaving and achieving, this restaurant dishes and swishes with flying colors in every aspect of the dining game. They serve bread that stays hot the entire meal, never hardens, plentiful, and served with olive oil, it is imperative you order this even if it is not free. It is worth getting. The fresh juice they have will allow you to digest everything easier. I really enjoyed the Lagman soup, a regional soup with lamb, noodles, and vegetables. It is the perfect soup for a cold winters day. Thankfully they serve this in two sizes. I would eat this in a boot. That is how good it is. The Uzbek Plov, a pilaf plate of lamb, vegetables, and rice, is alright. There is plenty of food in it, but the lamb gets tough and dries out. It needs a nice sauce to work through it, but otherwise it falls short. It is a manageable portion to eat. No dinner is complete without eating some cherry verniki. These are dumplings in a cherry sauce and you get a generous amount. Incredibly silky and has plenty of flavor. You could order these as an entree, but I would order these as a dessert. I really enjoyed the classic rock music playing as it created a solid contrast of old world food and new world angst that this food solidly provides. When you leave, the whole experience will have you winning and grinning all the way home.

And here we are again. Just as good as I remember. The location has changed but the food quality hasn't. Place is now 2 stories brand new building and decor. Very cozy and excellent service as usual.

First time having Uzbeki food, and it certainly won't be my last. Even from the exterior, Nargis is very charming. Enter and you'll find yourself in a cafe-like atrium with tons of natural sunlight and a beautiful bar/counter space. In the back is a full dining room as well. The staff here were so lovely and kind, and took the time to talk to us about the items on the menu and were constantly checking in. Opted to sample some of the more traditional dishes which included chicken manti, baklava, as well as the meat samsa. Everything was delicious. The samsa had a nice flaky exterior and the meat was well seasoned. The manti came in the cutest little white pot with a lid and were so good on their own I didnt feel the need to dip them into sour cream or vinegar. Last but not least the baklava-- wasn't too sweet or drenched in syrup as it sometimes can be and was full to the brim with pistachios. Chefs kiss.
