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 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.

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...
