Old City

A small restaurant in the Russian Quarter featuring a fireplace, offering plenty of vegetarian options and highly rated pumpkin manti.

Old City is located in the Russian Quarter. It is a cozy, intimate space with small tables and a fireplace, making it better suited for independent travelers than large tour groups. The menu features Uzbek and European dishes, with plov, manti, and borscht being top sellers, alongside recommended dishes like Khan-style meat, dimlama stew, foil-baked mutton, and cream soups. It is one of the few restaurants in town with a good selection of vegetarian options; the pumpkin manti and vegetarian plov are frequently mentioned, though vegans should double-check the ingredients. Some negative reviews from 2025 mentioned salads not being fresh. Located at 100/1 Abdurahmon Jomiy Street; accessible by taxi.
