    My Uzbek friend invited me here.. incredible authentic food. Delicious flavors and their sambal chilli sauce was amazing!! Great Sunday lunch and excellent to try this cuisine. Only has about 10-12 seats

    Authentic, tasty Uzbek Halal food. Owner and his Japanese colleague were friendly and professional. Restaurant atmosphere was cozy and calm. Reminded of the original Uzbek restaurant in Russia. Owner could speak fluent Japanese, English and Russian. There's a paid parking nearby at high central Tokyo rates.

    Visited for lunch after finding this place by coincidence whilst on a journey to Nakano Broadway - to my surprise it ended up being one of the highlights! Authentic & delicious Uzbek cuisine in a cosy environment. The staff were all lovely people who really tried to make you feel at home. When a freshly baked item was ready, the lady let me know instantly - of course, who could resist?! The pastry on the outside was crispy, but the inside was moist and filled with extremely flavourful lamb (see pictured). I would definitely recommend it to anyone who’s visiting for the first time! The main dish was ラグモン, was an Uzbek noodle dish that came packed with perfectly cooked vegetables and a generous amount of lamb. I had no idea there were Uzbek noodle dishes, but this took me by surprise - the noodles were chewy and paired extremely nicely with the vegetable & lamb soup. Delicious. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area, or even those who are curious to try out Uzbek cuisine but live further away. 10/10.

    Food ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Service ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ Decor ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ Small restaurant providing apparently authentic cuisine from Uzbekistan. Never had Uzbeki food before. This was very tasty, especially the skewer of ground lamb. At 7pm on a holiday they were sold out of about 25% of the items on the menu. Otherwise I would give them 5 stars. The food reminded my dining companion of food eaten in Morocco. The location is far from the station although near to a bus stop. The building is old with a Japanese style bathroom. Restaurant is able to seat 10 at most, counter seating only. Recommended for people interested in trying different cuisine.

    First time try Uzbek food and it is quite tasty! The pumpkin flatbread is very juicy and the hand pulled noodles are refreshing. Just the lamb is the rice was a bit dry. The atmosphere is good and the staff is very friendly.

    Never had Uzbek food before but after this I suppose I must have it again soon. Among the dishes in the not-expensive lunch set, the soup and the bread were very good. The woman who runs it was very nice and everything came in fast.

    A must go place to try Uzbek food and culture in Tokyo. Their Plov is a must try and their original dessert aptly named "vatanim" is very delicious. The place has a very ethnic vibe and is frequented by Uzbek/Kazakh expats living in Tokyo.The owner is super friendly and makes sure everyone feels welcome and at home.

    Price is expensive. Food is average. Plov is very dry, original one is more delicious . It is good restaurant who has no experience with Uzbek food. For people who has experience eating Uzbek food , not recommend it :)

    super good food, lots of flavors you don't get in typical japanese foods. the bread is also incredible. If possible come on weekdays for lunch and get the set meal for a little taste of a few things.
