Class apart. I'd recommend this place not only just for food but also great ambience. True to the Uzbek culture the restaurant is a work of art. Be ready to be awed by barely stepping inside it. It's quite yet warm and welcoming. The glass windows look out to the outdoor sitting area and varanda bringing a lot of natural light. The food and service is top notch. Highly recommend their tea catalogue. Also the food served hot the right flavour notes. It was a great experience lunching here. :)

We enjoyed our dinner here so much that we came back again on our last night in Bukhara. The setting is lovely in a beautifully ornate old Jewish merchant's house. Service was very good, and the food was excellent. Fine dining with an international feel. It did get busy, so booking is advisable at busy times.

I can say this is probably the best meal I have eaten in Uzbekistan and also the only meal that is non local cuisine. The moment I stepped into the restaurant I was awed by the architechture and the design.
I didn't make a reservation so I was made to wait a while before a table was available. I didn't get to sit anywhere indoors or close to it, was just sitting near the glass door which was the entrance between the hotel and the restaurant.
There was eventually 2 more tables which were empty but a lot of people actually walked in and they didn't want to sit in the area probably its darker and not as comfortable.
I didn't know what to eat so I asked the waiter to recommend me some of the dishes. They were quite nice like they recommended 2 soups and 2 mains so I could pick the one I preferred.
Eventually ordered the Soup of the Sea and the Fettucine and I have to say I liked it a lot. I was already quite full but then decided not to leave without dessert so was recommended the Chocolate Fondant. I have to say it was a great ending to the meal.
Food was really good though sitting near the glass door would probably be a bit dark with just a small lamp on the table, but I was totally fine so long I was able to dine there.
Service could be better though, the waiters were not attentive enough when I called out for them, not sure if was because the area I sat was dark, but even if they came and responded to me, they failed to return again with what I needed. Like I asked twice for the menu to order the dessert and like 4 times for the bill.
Price is a bit on the expensive side but I would say the quality is worth what you pay for.

Set in a former merchant's house and attached to the hotel Lyabi, this restaurant oozes class right from the decoration, through the food and all the way to the service.
The decor in the inner room is an eclectic mix of central Asian and European and really should be seen if you go.
The menu offers a wide choice of food which is beautifully presented and tastes even better than it looks.
The service is exceptional; attentive without being intrusive, very professional and most of the staff have very good/excellent English language skills.
This is a must-visit place for anyone visiting this magical city.

This was the stand-out place to eat in Bukhara. For an Italian restaurant in Uzbekistan, it was pretty dang good. There’s live piano music and the ambience is very pleasant for a dinner. The pasta was also delicious. I can definitely recommend this place while you’re in Bukhara.

We visited as a couple after making reservations for a Saturday night. There is seating indoor with occasional live piano and a well-decorated space, or on a terrace with a mix of small and large tables, some with cushioned sofa seats. There is also seating in a courtyard below the terrace which I would not recommend (lacks lighting, ambience, and may be slow to be served). If you will eat here, ensure you can get the inside or the terrace.
Food is much talked up on TripAdvisor and other review sites. It is better quality and well-presented compared to the many other restaurants on B. Nakshband Av. However, it is not *that* good. The menu has a mix of Uzbek, European (Italian raviolis mostly) and Russian dishes. We ordered the fish and a meat ravioli (photo). The fish was fine though the ravioli lacked flavor. We also ordered a bread basket which was mediocre. Unfortunately, like many venues in Uzbekistan, smoking is allowed and this is taken advantage of. Many patrons were smoking, especially those from a big nearby country, and this made it hard for those not used to public smoke inhalation. Since the space is in an interior hotel courtyard, more or less, there are no breezes to blow it away. We beat an early and hasty retreat.
Recommended if you have gas masks.

The first thing I was asked when I got it “Do you have a reservation?” So be aware.
I was surprised by the standard of this restaurant, the staff are very attentive and welcoming, the atmosphere is cozy and romantic with live piano, indoor and outdoor tables, I ordered Greek salad which was really good and Alfredo, it was hot and well cooked but the taste lacked flavors. Lastly I ordered and Panna Cotta was delicious. there’s a long list menu of exported wine. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Greek Salad
beautiful place. food is good. we ordered unfiltered draft beer which 1st round was full glass, 2nd order was not unfiltered and too much foam. we asked the service staff if its the unfiltered, he said he will check and replied it is. from the color, its clear it's filtered instead of unfiltered...a letdown from such a restaurant with high reviews and complements. nevertheless, a beautiful restaurant to enjoy the environment.

Excellent restaurant. Great location. This was dinner for one but the wait staff were very attentive to me while I was there. The drinks - mojito - were really tasty and the food was just as excellent as anticipated.

Honestly one of the best places I've eaten. I dined solo, enjoying several glasses of fantastic white wine alongside grilled seabass and veal tartar, the latter of which might be some of the best tartar I've had. Beautiful interiors, worth a visit for that. Don't hesitate, just go! Service was lovely and friendly too and the music and ambience great. If I visit Uzbekistan again with a friend I'd go out of my way to take them there I just loved it that much.
