    This is the original and best, great food, service and theatre inside with the glass walled kitchen or views if you sit on the terrace

    The best Indian restaurant in Cape Town with the most attentive staff. The dishes are very delicious, highly recommended.

    I can't live without a regular dose of their earth shattering dhal makani! Trust me. I go to India 3/4 times a year and they could teach India a thing or two. Also the stuffed crayfish, delicious!

    The Rogan josh was divine. The hot chocolate the best I've had! The curry the best so far

    The Bukhara in CT CBD is unbelievable Indian food, awesome grub, you will be FULL when you leave. The curries are the best, try Chicken Lababdar.

    I used to love Bukhara in Cape Town city but their wine list is overpriced or out of stock, good prices are outrageous and the food is still good but declining.

    Fish curry is delicious! At lunch, share 2 curries between 3 as the portion sizes are generous.

    Saag Paneer has a great herby flavor and isn't too creamy.

    The Chicken Lababdar is to die for. Have it with a Malabar Parantha bread.

    They couldn't give us tap water because they where "running out of jugs", so we had to buy mineral water. Restaurants that operate like this don't deserve to exist

    Pricey and rather bland curry. A selection of exactly 4 boring beers, not even one Indian beer! Nice atmosphere, but no smoking. I won't be back.

    Really bad service, greating was aloof, barman was aggressive, waitress was really slow and constantly tried to upsell things. It took 40 mins to take our order and the place was 1/3 full.

    O autêntico Bukhara oferece o melhor da cozinha indiana em ambiente simples e agradável acompanhada de serviços impecáveis. Carnes de caça preparadas na tradicional panela de barro tandoori. Reservar.

    مطعم يقدم الاكل الحلال ولكنهم لايضعون لوحة وحسب كلام احد الموظفين لانهم يبيعون الكحول عشان كذا مو حاطين لوحة حلال،عندهم اكلات هنديه لذيذة،جربت دجاج كاري بالزبدة ومسالا دجاج وسلطة خضراء لذيذة
