    Amazing Russian and Eastern European food! Loved the blinis, pelmini (get this boiled!), and chebureki. Beef stroganoff and chicken Kiev were solid. Had to take the borscht to go! Next time we will BYOB and get dessert.

    Went here with party of 8 for bday party. This is byob place so bring your own alcohol. There is a kroger and Tom thumb close by in case you forget. We ordered the beef cabbage rolls and the lamb shank. Both prepared nicely and were tasty. I preferred the cabbage rolls. Both were good options however. For dessert, we had the Napoleon cake. I hadn't had one in many years, so it was nice. Was not the best one I've had, but it was good. The service was a bit slow and you had to flag them down if you wanted something. Overall, I would recommend this place for Uzbekistan food.

    Amazing Russian food. It was definitely a lot for 2 people, which goes to say that the portion sizes were really good. We got the beef Stroganoff with mashed potatoes, khachapuri (bread stuffed with loads of melted cheese 🧀and a fried egg🍳) which was a first for us and absolutely delicious and filling. I think the best part of the meal was the honey cake🍰 we got for dessert.

    I stopped here for takeout since I was nearby and haven’t had Uzbek food since Moscow. Got my fav lagman soup and it did not disappoint. So flavorful! Also had meat samson and was tasty but I recall having it with sauces. Perhaps missed that having takeout. Would love to go back and try more, plus check out the entertainment.

    The food was absolutely amazing! So delicious and high quality. We came from another state to visit Dallas and made a dinner reservation in advance. We arrived earlier than our reserved time, but they seated us without any problem.
    The service was great and the staff was very friendly. The food came out pretty fast, everything was fresh, hot, and tasty. For our group of five, the tip was automatically included in the bill.
    Overall, a great place for a nice dinner!
