With opening of The Plove, Cincinnati now has 3 options for Uzbek cuisine, which is honestly kind of bonkers. The Plove also have a Turkish menu as well to differentiate them from the competition.
I tried the basics, just the traditional plov and samsa. The plov was decent, though unlike alot of the review pictures posted in the past, it didn't come with the sausage, which was disappointing. The beef portion though was generous and were tender and flavorful. The samsa was different than what I was used to, it wasn't bad per se but I prefer my samsa with a pastry like dough instead of a simple wrap dough as is the case here.
I'll be back to try some of the soup and the Turkish menu at some point, but for purely Uzbek cuisine, Chaykhana N1 over in Pisgah is still the much better choice.
One other thing to mention is that the front of the entrance and the lobby has a very strong cigarette smell, it actually kind of reeked. Management should make sure the staff do not smoke in the lobby or in front of the store. Also, there were no signs denoting if the place is open or not, so you basically just need to hope the hours posted on Google is accurate.

Beautiful atmosphere and ambience, food is very tasty and delicious. Friendly staff and welcoming.
Beautiful decor and table setting. I really want to love this place but I have been there twice and, while the food is good, it can be a very confusing adventure. The menu is difficult to understand so ordering can be hard. The staff seems to have a launguage barrier too (To be fair I only speak English and I feel the majority of their clientele speaks many languages). The food has not been consistently available or served the same as the time before. Depending on what you order meals come out at different times which seems odd. It is definitely worth a try and the furnishings in the place are very relaxed and comfortable. My biggest pet peeve is that all drinks come in a bottle or can, and my favorite thing is the hummus with Pita and pot of hot green tea.

Loved the vibe here but the service was a bit off, for example they told us they could not make several items 10 minutes after we placed our order. The food still turned out really good! I would go back, but they need to streamline their service/kitchen I think

We ordered the Traditional Uzbek Plov and Somsa Bukhara. The plov was delicious but it had weird fat on top of it which I didn’t like, and the rice was a bit greasy. The Somsa was good and flaky. The best part about this place was the decor, tables and chairs, this place has a unique style and atmosphere. Can’t wait to go back again.
