We had heard about samsa, which is served here, long before the trip to Samarkand. We visited with our family and had a gastronomic pleasure. Cozy courtyard, excellent cuisine, attentive staff. Samsa is supreme! The shish kebab "Napolen" layered is very tasty. I recommend it!
A nice little place. To be in Samarkand. On the way to Tashkent, I stopped by with my son and tried samsushki. Samosa itself is small, crispy and very tasty. The staff was pleasantly served. I am happy with my son. Friends, I advise you to try it.
A wonderful place where you can taste delicious Samarkand samsa. Friendly staff, fast service, a variety of dishes, a cozy courtyard and very reasonable prices.
It didn't go down. For the sophisticated Russian audience, the discovery (and unpleasant) will be the fact that the cafe is not in the cleanest condition. Right in front of us, garbage was swept away from the entire covered part, which did not look too presentable. Tables are not wiped. Flies are swarming in the toilet, and the sink drain is clogged with a raw piece of meat. There is no toilet paper. It is also very surprising that there is simply no paper menu in the cafe. And no, dear Muscovite, it is not presented in an electronic version. The waiter names the prices for the items verbally. Accordingly, the chance of being deceived increases exponentially. When we, who came in a large company, requested a check, the waiter wrote it by hand. I can't say that the dishes are absolutely disgusting. The salad of fried vegetables and eggplant turned out to be quite edible, and samsa is praised for a reason, even if the portions are modest. Overall, the impression was not the most positive. After a grueling five-hour tour, I wanted a simple human to eat and relax, and unfortunately it did not work out.
Great place!!! Super tasty meat, I am very fastidious about food, but then I was struck by the taste of cooked meat: juicy, soft, rich. I was delighted, I would have taken 2 more servings, but I was full. I will definitely come back and try the rest of the meat dishes. The price tag is very democratic. I do not attach photos, because I ate all the dishes at once)
Amazing place! Autumn friendly staff. A great selection of kebabs for every taste, samsa, various salads. All the food is of excellent quality and very tasty. A cozy courtyard. We were very satisfied. If you are in Samarkand, be sure to take a look, you will not regret it!
We came for the "best samsa" in Samarkand. But unfortunately, samsa turned out to be the most ordinary. But I liked all the other dishes very much - both the chicken kebab and the Napoleon kebab. But the biggest impression was made by the "salad menu" - see the photo. This was shown to us when we asked, "what kind of salads are there?"
When I visit Samarkand, I always look at Kokand Samsa #1 at least once.
Samsa is very tasty, puff pastry, fresh meat, crunches as it should 😜
I would like to note that in this institution, in addition to samsa, you can taste kebabs, including ground, lumpy mutton (5++), lumpy beef, chicken and others.
Among the advantages is a summer courtyard, where there are trees (decently grown) that give shade, as well as large umbrellas.
There is also a lot of space in the two-storey cafe, where alcoholic beverages and cigarettes are prohibited. A great choice for a family hike.
Of the disadvantages, I will note the service. There's trouble with the waiters if you come during rush hour.
I wish success to the owners, and most importantly, keep the brand
Delicious. Very tasty. Crazy kebabs, I've never tried them anywhere. I tried liver kebab for the first time - I highly recommend it! Shurpa, samsa, salads - everything is very tasty and fresh.
They came to eat at this place, the tables are dirty, they don't wipe them until you ask, and when they wiped it, it's unclear what changed, how dirty it was, and it remained. They wanted a menu, but there is none, the prices are probably out of my head. They brought a samsa the size of a child's fist, it is unclear where the price of 10,000 for such a small thing came from. They also brought 2 sauces that we did not order, at the end they were included in the bill. And the most interesting thing is that despite the signed prices before the name of the dishes in the receipt, the price was higher, apparently it was added on its own for the excellent service.
This place is recommended by all the locals when you ask where the most delicious samsa is.
We found several halls without any problems, we were taken to a large one with a huge chandelier.
The range of kebabs is good, for every taste, samsa was with lamb (or you need to specify in advance, or it's just like that there), fresh and pickled vegetables, tortillas. The kebab is delicious (and mutton, and chicken, and lula), samsa: the dough is very tasty, because I don't like mutton-I wouldn't buy it anymore. Relatives who really love mutton were delighted.
I took off the score during the waiting time, we waited a very long time for everything. I can't tell the people at the neighboring tables who came later who brought food earlier (I'm not sure if they were local).
You sit and wait. You've been waiting a long time. Then they thought about leaving altogether, then they reminded themselves 2 times.
At the thought of eating here again, we changed our mind, because we would have waited a very long time.
A place for 1 time for a tourist not from Uzbekistan.
We ate samsa, shish kebab, and lula. Everything is fresh, hot and delicious.Quickly served. There is no alcohol. Here for food and local flavor. Service and interiors are not here.
Delicious famous sambusa (samsa), delicious kebabs, and most importantly, alcohol is not sold and is not allowed to bring, for me this is the most important thing.
A very trusting cashier who does not even ask the waiter what you ordered when calculating the table.
A place of homemade fresh and stunningly delicious food! Samsa is great, as are the sauces that are served with it. Everything is spotlessly fresh. The atmosphere is quite austere, but the food is worth coming here. Made with soul and for people. I admire places where you can taste really delicious and freshly prepared food. Thank you to the owners of this institution for living not only for themselves, but also for people.
We specially went here to try samsa, the expectations were met. And really, the most delicious in the city, the barbecue is also excellent. Do not expect good service, but everything is fast, you can take food with you.
We planned a trip to this institution even before arriving in Samarkand, based on reviews on maps and the Vinsky forum.
We sampled 10 pieces of samsa, a skewer of liver with lard, veal and lamb without bones + tea with lemon and three servings of fresh vegetable salad.
They gave less than 300 thousand soums for everything (it's fine for three, in principle). Although we didn't see the receipt, neither did the menu with prices.
The cafe has a courtyard with trees, umbrellas and sofas, but it was already hot there at the end of May. There is an air-conditioned room, but it was busy on Sunday at about 13 o'clock.
The impression is twofold.
Our service was quite fast, there are no complaints about this.
The dishes were dirty in places, wiped with alcohol napkins for injections and norms.
The tea in the teapot is bagged Akhmat, but half a lemon in the teapot gives the tea a very pleasant aroma.
Samsa was taken out of the tandoor right in front of us. Crispy, fragrant, 5-7 centimeters. Honestly, I won't say that something incredible was eaten better (the opinion of three people). They didn't finish there, they took it with them. So after a few hours, it suddenly tasted better. I don't know, maybe that's how it should be.
Barbecue. Unfortunately, I did not like any of the species, we did not finish it.
Just a cannon! This is really NUMBER 1!!!
I recommend, after this samsa, it is not possible to eat another one, the nimble staff! The place is not cozy, it's a little dirty, but Samsa is a bomb to be honest, and you can also buy dough for cooking at home, definitely better than a store!!! As is
They cook very tasty!
Samsa is amazing! The kebab is delicious. I took off the star only for the fact that they do not clean the tables well. The guests have left, and the leftovers and dishes lie until the next guests, and only when they begin to clean and wipe the table.
One of the iconic places on the culinary map of the city, which is a must-visit. For several decades, the owner of this institution, Rabim aka, has been maintaining the perfect quality of cooking his famous somsa. In addition, in his restaurant you can taste other masterpieces of Samarkand cuisine, such as shurpa with pie, various types of kebabs, khasib and much more.
One of the best places in Samarkand with delicious samsa. You can eat a lot and without any discomfort for the stomach. It is safe to bring visitors to the city. Thanks
Awful... apparently it's not the season and the attitude towards tourists... Well, that's it... I ordered a shurpa.... Well, no, this is absolutely not what I ate in Tashkent.. The vaunted samsa does not look like samsa at all... and again, it does not compare with the Tashkent one.. heaven and earth..
They offered a local sausage for a sample... it would be better not to bring it.. very specific.
In general, I went there because I read the laudatory reviews and was deeply disappointed...(((
A delicious, hospitable place! Samsa is amazing! The kebab is juicy, the meat is soft! Samsa is served with sauce!
It's a pity that we found this place before leaving (
P.S. order samsa immediately from 4 pieces per person)))
I do not share everyone's enthusiasm. Very fatty samsa, so much salt that it is impossible to eat. And, by the way, why so much salt? To hide something that needs to be hidden or just like it better? I have long dreamed of eating delicious samsa and now... Disappointment. In my opinion, it's tasteless, and my stomach ached after.
The kebab is normal, the meat is soft.
Prices (I don't know if they are for tourists or for everyone, there is often a difference):
Samsa - 8000
Beef kebab - 20000
The cape is very tasty
Tea with lemon just fell off your head, it's just as sweet as it should be.
Samsa is crispy and juicy
Chopped shish kebab (lula kebab in our style) it's just a celebration. I advise everyone
Edible. The kebab is a little too salty, the samsa is average, there is no beer. In general, nothing special, although many on the Internet recommend it, I would not go a second time
