We had such an amazing experience at Samarkand Nights! We took my Dad here for his 49th birthday, and the food and service was incredible. The lamb soup was addicting, and the salad platters were to die for. Everything was cooked flawlessly; we ordered a meat platter, and every single bite of chicken, lamb, and roasted vegetables were authentic and delicious. A night well spent!

Food is absolutely delicious. From the salad to the really good beef soup to the kebab and the plov. Everything was hot and delicious.THIS IS DEFINITELY MY NEW GO TO RESTAURANTNot a big fan of jalapeños being put on the salad. My kid loves salad but hates spicy food

Update: 11/22/24I am a regular now. Can't get enough of their delicious food. Pro tip. The Napoleon is not on the menu, ask for it!!Happened to be walking by and decided to stop in for some soup. The Lagman soup was hearty with plenty of veggies, noodles, and flavorful beet. The Plov is a must have, rice, beef, sweet carrot, and other delicious ingredients. Loved every bite and can't wait to try the rest of the menu.
