This place would be hands down 5-stars if they still had their dine-in option. However, that is not the case. Take-out only. So, we going off food alone. And my goodness, it is all amazing! Recommend the stuffed tomatoes and the Lagman but no joke, everything is fantastic! Hell, even the damn bread is amazing! Support this delicious restaurant

We got this food delivered via 3rd part app. I was really glad with how good the food was. I had never had food from Uzbekistan and this was a pleasant introduction to it. I got the Lagman. I am making this post so that others who are interested in trying Uzbeki cuisine for the first time, do so.

Kavsar is one of the best restaurants in Pittsburgh! Always delicious, always friendly! The only thing that I can complain about is that we live too far away and can’t just stop by for a dinner any time we want some good food.

Awesome place for Russian/Uzbek halal food in Pittsburgh! I really loved their soups. I think they use lot of dill in their cooking. If you are not big fan of dill please let the waitress know. Even though there were lot of dills in dish, it was not overwhelming. They also made fresh bread for us. Customer service was very good.

The lady was very rude! We ordered the plov. The rice was undercooked and meat was too dry. The noodles were good.

This wonderful unique restaurant, only a few blocks away from Mount Washington, serves up a variety of flavorful Uzbek and Russian food. Our large group (15) were given the private room. We started with the stuffed tomatoes, Tuzluma spiced cucumber salad, and homemade bread. Try the Plov with lamb, Lagman, Kavsar Salmon, Russian Cutlets, or the Gampan. They have a wide variety of vegetarian options.

We came for dinner. Ordered the eggplant roll, laghman, small bread, manti, and Russian honey Cake. The food was amazing. Dishes are flavorful and made me feel like we’re eating in someone’s home! I’ve not had Uzbek or Russian food before so don’t have a reference point. But the food is delicious with lots of options, including vegetarian ones!

Tucked away in the little lanes of Mt Washington is this gem of a place that pops up almost out of nowhere in the heart of a homely neighborhood. Where do I start.. Ok.. so they have a separate vegetarian menu..that’s one star right there! The dishes are a nice balance of truly authentic with a couple of fusion options thrown in like Pasta or Eurasian stroganoff. We started with the mushroom and potato Samsa, eggplant rolls and stuffed tomatoes. I would have given the place 5 stars right there! But we didn’t stop there did we. My boyfriend and I proceeded to order the traditional Uzbek bread and the mushroom soup, because soups are apparently important in the Uzbek culinary experience. Both were fantastic, fresh and warmly soothing on a cold winter evening. And then we also tried the Manti, the stuffed dumplings. We couldn’t decide if we wanted the pumpkin ones or the spinach ones and our waitress sweetly suggested bringing us a half plate one type and the other half of the other. Problem solved! I’d actually give them a couple of extra stars for the service if I could! Our waitress was so helpful, accommodative and efficient. The one think I wish they had on heir menu was vegetarian plaf! (A rice dish). But our waitress told us that all we had to do is to call ahead next time and they’d have it made! The overall experience was like dining in a warm, friendly Uzbek home! (Shoutout to the interesting interiors!) Here’s a business that values its patrons and they’ve found a huge fan in me. Of course, I took some of the baklava home for a late night snack. Both my heart and tummy slept happy and satisfied last night!

Uzbek Restaurant and having served there in the U S embassy it is the real deal. I love Uzbek Palov rice cooked with lamb onions, carrots. It was so tasty!! The bread baked fresh and hot with meat and onions.
