THE place to go for Russian & Uzbek food. Must try the Tashkent salad, Lagman or Shurpa soup, Uzbek Plov, Manti with meat (steamed), and a variety of Kebab until you can't have anymore.
Elvis RodricksMarch 1, 2018This is the real deal! Ive had many kebabs from across the ME and subcontinent and this one takes an exceptional spot. Had their lamb kebab and they narrowed down the juiciness and tenderness.
Untapped CitiesJanuary 18, 2018Nargis Cafe delivers an authentic taste of Central Asian cuisine and culture. They're best known for their manti, dumplings often served with sour cream or soy sauce and vinegar. Read more

Mari LyubimovaAugust 16, 2021The best in the aria. Chicken kebab, fried potato with mushrooms are the must! Also spring salad and Achichuck are my fav!
Jonas LafortezzaAugust 24, 2017Steamed pumpkin dumplings are the best. Avo salad, seabass skewers, garlic fries, eggplant dip. Always freezing inside
Flo FloOctober 20, 2012I had the avocado salad(tomatoes, cucumbers, radish, red onion, scallion, dill, olive oil and vinegar)it was good. Also ordered the Kebobs(lamb rib, chicken wings, chicken, liver)the lamb was my fave- Bernadette LibonateMay 14, 2016First time eating Uzbek food- I was with a group that were very familiar with the cuisine and they said it was legit. I just thought the food was so yummy and service was spot on
c.brk1903September 2, 2013Food was delicious especially uzbek rice. polite staff with fast and nice service. We were very satisfied with everything. I recommend this place to anyone without doubt.
MelissaAugust 7, 2017Chuchvara (ring-shaped, Central Asian lamp dumplings often compared to tortellini). Order them pan-friend, showered with dill and caramelized onion
Joe CheskinJanuary 7, 2015Everything that we've had here has been excellent. Someday we hope not to fill up so much so that we can try desert : )
amNewYorkOctober 25, 2011This neighborhood nook serves cuisine ranging from the Georgian chebureki to an Uzbek shurpa soup of mutton and onions. Try the manti, steamed dumplings filled with beef.- Phil HuJuly 27, 2017Uzbek plov and lagman soup are amazing. Oh you don't wanna miss the kebabs of course.
Tam DoJuly 27, 2014Everything was flavorful! The mushroom - potato hash, as well as the liver kebabs stood out!
Lily DvorkinaDecember 28, 2012My favorite shashlik place in Brooklyn The garlic fries, sea bass and lamb shashlik are fantastic!
Food is amazing! Especially spring salad with feta cheese. Everything is very inexpensive!
Manuel NeaceJuly 17, 2011Always crowded, best liver kabobs ever. Just a great casual dining experience with the helpful, friendly staff.
Marina LSeptember 5, 2015I found most of the food to be oily and greasy, and I am not talking about deep fried stuff. The salads and some appetizers are pretty good.
Be surround try their Hummus and Lagman! Best in Brooklyn!
This place is a Brooklyn hidden gem. If you're around, and get a sit, get the liver kebab.
BrooklynianAugust 5, 2013_RAW CHICKEN KEBAB_ Even though I showed the waiter RAW soft pink spots, after speaking to manager they declined to offer me better cooked chicken nor did waive it from my check. Very disappointed!
