Toqi Teahouse
Токи
A traditional teahouse near Victory Park and Mehrgon Market, popular with locals and highly regarded for its plov.
Located at 29 Kurbon Rakhimov Street, near Victory Park and Mehrgon Market, this teahouse features multiple rooms across two floors, a vine-covered courtyard, curtained booths, and traditional tapchan seating, making it very popular with locals. It holds around 4.3 stars on Google with over 900 reviews. The plov is most famous, though some reviews note it is only served at lunch, with kebabs recommended for dinner; the qurutob also receives good reviews, and large portions can be pre-ordered by phone. Portions are generous, though there have been some recent criticisms regarding inconsistent service and food quality. Prices are mid-range; it is not in the city center, so a taxi is required.
