We had such a wonderful time! The food was amazing, but what really made our visit so special was our server, Said. He’s such an attentive and hard-working young man, always making sure everything was just right. His kindness and genuine care made us feel so welcome—it really made the evening memorable. Thank you!

This was my first and last visit to this restaurant. The food was delicious, and the interior is beautiful, but the service completely ruined the evening.
We came to celebrate my birthday: my friend invited me and another friend whom I hadn’t seen in a long time. For my American friend, it was also an important experience — to try cuisine from our countries — and I wanted him to have a good impression.
However, the waiter made a mistake with the order: instead of just the herring with potatoes, he brought several extra appetizers, including a huge plate of hummus and other items. We politely declined, explaining that we canceled this right away. Instead of simply taking it back and canceling, the waiter insisted that we had ordered it and pressured us to accept it.
The situation escalated: a woman from behind the bar (hostess or manager), a runner, and even the bartender all got involved, standing at our table and pressuring us as if we had done something wrong. The bartender kept glaring at us the entire time, which made the atmosphere extremely uncomfortable.
My friend was furious — he even said, “Call the police, then we’ll just leave.” Only after that did the waiter throw up his hands and say, “Okay, now I’ll have to pay for this.” Why should it be our fault if the waiter misunderstood us, or if he couldn’t properly communicate in English while working with American customers?
I found this behavior extremely disrespectful. We experienced unnecessary pressure, confusion, and insincere apologies. In the end, we had to take that appetizer back to the bar ourselves because they refused to remove it from our table.

We celebrated my niece’s 4th birthday at this Uzbek restaurant, and overall it was a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely delicious and the salads were super fresh. We did run into a small issue with the lamb chops being undercooked, but the staff handled it quickly and professionally, which I really appreciated. The only real downside had nothing to do with the restaurant itself but with the table next to us. One of the women there kept rolling her eyes at the kids and even asked them not to come near their table. Honestly, if you dislike being around children that much, maybe order delivery and enjoy your meal at home instead of ruining the vibe for others. That aside, we had a great time and would definitely come back for the food and warm atmosphere.

An incredible experience - right in my neighborhood.
Five stars? How about 15?
Over many years, I have been to so many restaurants, and this is probably one of the best experiences I have had. I go out every night to great places.
These people have nailed every detail of a fabulous restaurant. I was first drawn in because I heard there was a saxophone player Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday. Little did I know that it was my favorite guy, Zaur.
So obvious that the restaurant owners have put so much energy into making it the perfect place. The food is incredible; the service is impeccable; totally clean; beautifully decorated; atmosphere incredible. Of course, I LOVE the saxophone player.
A most wonderful experience. I am bringing all of my friends here.❤️🙂 the great place I love this place

Went on a date with my wife to Nargiz and absolutely loved it! We had roasted eggplant, a fresh salad, warm bread, and then the Uzbek plov. The salad tasted just like homemade, the bread was soft and delicious, and the plov was simply amazing – perfectly balanced with a gentle sweetness from the raisins. One of the best we’ve ever tried. Cozy atmosphere, wonderful food. Highly recommend, especially the plov!
Dining in Nargis was a spectacular experience! The service was top notch, we got seated right away and the staff were super kind although they were busy. The food was amazing, great lamb and great vegetables. Very nicely put together. Atmosphere was also clean and pretty. Definitely recommend

I used to love Nargis Restaurant and have been ordering since day one, but ever since they moved, things have gone downhill. My last two orders arrived with old, weathered vegetables in the salad that should never have been served. When I asked for a refund, they flat-out refused. After years of loyalty, this is how they treat customers? Extremely disappointing, and I won’t be ordering again.
