This is a relatively new restaurant in Tashkent located in a residential neighbourhood. We were staying nearby at Art hotel and decided to check this place out for dinner. By this time, we wanted to eat non-local cuisine and this restaurant ticked the boxes, offering...both Western/continental entrees and Japanese rolls. The ambience and setting of the restaurant is modern and swanky. There were other patrons and most appeared to well-dressed locals or business men. The food was competently executed - tomato soup had balanced flavors, the "Philadelphia Roll" was well made and the salmon was fresh, whilst the grilled chicken and beef steak "Mexican" style were succulent and done just right.
Service was generally very attentive and good. Our tea and iced water was constantly refilled, dishes arrived in sequence and plates were cleared once we were done. It was ramadan and they offered all patrons a plate of sweets, preserved fruits and nuts which was a welcome gesture.. One of the young waiters spoke English although most of the staff did not. They do have a menu in english.
In terms of pricing the restaurant would be very expensive by local standards, but we thought it was worth it. 20% service charge is added to your bill at the end, which is normal for restaurants at this price range. We spent about 160,000 som per person (no alcoholic drinks)More
