Emirhan
A rooftop restaurant right next to the Registan, offering square views and live music in the evening.
Located inside the hotel of the same name, Emirhan features two floors of indoor seating and a rooftop facing the Registan. The view is its biggest selling point, complemented by live evening music. The menu includes plov, kebabs, manti, and samsa; the Samarkand plov has received multiple positive reviews, while the eggplant rolls and binzhak are also highlighted in guides, alongside vegetarian options. Some reviews mention high prices, inconsistent service, and long wait times. The restaurant is highly popular, and the best rooftop tables must be booked in advance, with sunset being the most sought-after slot; daytime and early evening are safer bets for securing views. Within walking distance of the Registan, located at Makhmudzhanova 1/18.
