Hands down the best spot we hit as the new year just started. We were driving around the neighborhood and looking for food when Nargis came into our sights. Cozy atmosphere to start; food was superbly delectable, the beef kebab was so tender and squid ink pasta gave us the creamiest bites ever; Naz was our waitress who provided a really nice service. We both loved this place and decided that we’ll def come back!

We were refused a table because the staff assumed we would have a “small check,” based purely on our appearance. This is blatant discrimination and completely unacceptable. Judging guests by how much you think they will spend is unprofessional and has no place in hospitality :)

Me and my friends visited Nargis and were strongly dissatisfied with the treatment that we received. We waited for the table over 40 minutes while other visitors were sited right away. I was told that our check last time was to low and that is why they refused to offer us a table

They refused to give us a table based on assumption that we would have a small total receipt (that we will order not enough food), they literally said it to us

We didn’t even get a chance to sit down. We waited about 20 minutes for a table, but the staff never let us sit and kept ignoring us. It became very clear that they simply didn’t want to seat us, for no valid reason.
Other guests were being seated while we were left waiting, which made the situation feel uncomfortable and unfair. The attitude from the staff felt judgmental and unwelcoming, as if they had already decided they didn’t like us.
This was extremely unprofessional and left a bad impression. A restaurant should treat all customers equally. Because of this experience, we left and will not be returning.

We have dinner here with friends several times a month. We always order the Tashkent and Nargis salads and, of course, the pilaf. The atmosphere and service are excellent. It's probably the best restaurant in my neighborhood.
Great food and service! I love the beef kebabs and kutabi with greens 💚

Restaurant has a nice interior. Jazz music is calming. ***NO WiFi *** I had no reception and it said WiFi available for guests. We tried to connect from 3 different phones no success. After speaking with waiters they said WiFi was out for weeks and issue wasn’t fixed and they don’t know when they will. Food was a surprise in a few ways. Skirt steak salad looked nice. Yet the steak was cold Khutabs- were nice , yet very lightly filled with meat Shurpa Soup was nice - yet too many bones. French fries were very nice and tasty.
So here is what blew my mind - service.
There was 2 adults and 11 year old kid. The food was serviced one plate at a time. So one person was eating the other 2 were. Watching. Of all items ordered. French fries that were ordered were brought out last for a child. Break between each dish was about 5-10 minutes. Completely ridiculous. And with no wi fi - not even entertainment for the child. Also when asked for an extra piece of bread for soup we were told NO and they wanted us to order a whole bread. Plates and finished dishes were on the table almost till very end.
In summary - order out yes, dine in no. Kebab - yes. Fries - yes. Rest. - no.

Still one of the best places in NYC!!!
I say that if you are eating unhealthy food, at least let it be worth it lol
They have such a good food, that i always, but always, feel bad after from eating too much, way too much.
Try everything, i think i did, seriously, i think i went over all the menu. And i can say that my favorite is the fried manti (with meat), the liver kebeb and the chicken kebab. You know what, everything is good.
The food is cooked with a lot of fat, but at the same time it is so delicious that you just dont care....

A very high end cozy look and feel , but with very kind staff, delicious comforting food and good value. If you want to impress your date or just have a nice time out come try it out here . I will definitely be going back . They have large booths and small tables for a variety of party size.
