Really tasty food! The wings appetizer were so delicious, and traditional lamb over rice was out of this world. Highly recommend!

This was my first experience with Uzbek cuisine but it definitely won't be my last. The chuchvara soup was absolutely outstanding. The dumplings in the soup had the perfect meat to pastry ratio and a the broth was savory and had a pleasant dill flavor. Of the several dishes that I tried, my favorite dish was the Samarkand Plov which was super hearty and filled with tender meat. I'll definitely be craving that in the coming weeks So much flavor! We also order lamb short ribs and veal liver everything was cooked perfect and super flavorful. I just Felt like taking a gamble on a different restaurant today and this one paid off greatly. The dining area itself is cozy and has nice Uzbek decor. I got takeout but next time I would like to dine in. Will be back for sure.

This place is amazing. You get everything you could ever want and then some. I loved the interior, pricing, the fact that they are open late. And this is all before you even opened the menu. You just have to come and try classic dishes yourself. I would keep coming back again and again!

Good food. Tiny main dining room is tiny, 3 tables for 4 and 4 tables for 2. Apparently there is a second dining room, but I did not see it. The waiter was very good but not overly attentive. The wait for our food was longer than we would like. But the restaurant was almost empty at 5 on a weekday, so at least we knew our food was fresh. We went for the first time and were impressed. I had the Kufta (ground beef balls) and my husband had the Shepard's Bag. Both were delicious. The Tandoori bread was very good, with a great crust. The portions were not huge but were fine and the quality was good. We will be returning, I want to try other items.

Tried Old Bukhara for the first time and found the food to super flavorful and delicious. I've never had Uzbek cuisine and this did not disappoint. Especially recommend the chuchvara soup, the meat filled dumplings are amazing. The ambiance is casual but very well thought out with lots of traditional decoration. The first floor dining area is a bit smaller, but the upstairs area can accommodate a lot more. The individual who served us was very kind and patient. Would definitely come back here again for the soup alone.

This is one of the best Uzbeki foods I have had. A restaurant cooked that. My family and I go there quite often, and we always receive excellent service and such delicious food.

We come here almost every two weeks and it never gets old. For some high quality meats and grilling at a shockingly fair price, Old Bukhara is the traditional, authentic family dining experience that feels novel in this day and age. The Combination Kabob platter (chicken and beef recommended) is a must order. You'll seldom have such succulent cuts of meat that hit the perfect amount of char flavor. You can't not get their fries, which must soak up all that delicious meat flavor The Sofi Plav is a classic that has to be tried at least once. The cute quail eggs lie atop a mountain of sweet and fragrant rice. For your first time there, I also recommend a selection of cold cuts. Unlike anything you can get elsewhere in Jersey. Follow these cold items up with any of their amazing soups! Frickadelli is as freaking awesome as its name implies. Now why is their pizza so damn good? Honestly, a restaurant that's not billed as a pizza place has no business showing up all the actual pizza places in the area (maybe even the state?) but there you have it. The flavors are less adventurous American staples to the toppings that will take you straight to Uzbekistan! The Hot Bukhara is our favorite but be warned, it is ACTUALLY spicy. While you enjoy your meal, you'll be treated to the grand hospitality of the servers and enjoy the beautiful decor on the walls of Uzbekistan. This is a true culinary experience, in every sense, and well worth your patronage. I know I'll keep coming at least once a month for as long as I'm here!

Last night was our first time at Old Bukhara, but I can certainly say it won't be our last... and we'll bring friends! We were greeted almost immediately, and made to feel welcome - we were about 15 minutes early for our reservation, and at first, I wondered why I'd been told to make a reservation, for the tables were all empty! Little did I know that there is a second dinng room. We were seated, and within a short time our waiter asked if we were ready - which we were not. He graciously gave us plenty of time to review the menu, and I took the opportunity to Google a few of the dishes. We made our selections, and had a slight wait for our appetizer, the Samsa, but it was a comfortable length of time - we never felt rushed, nor did we feel that the waitstaff was rushing. (All good.) The Samsa was wonderful... the waiter was a minute or two late warning us about the level of spice heat in the one condiment, but no problem - I liked it. Dinner was delicious. I had the Old Bukhara Jiz, and when it came to the table I was a bit dismayed. The meat I'd chosen was the filet mignon, and it looked as though it had been cooked beyond well done. To my surprise it was juicy, tender, and absolutely wonderful. My husband declared the tandoori lamb to be some of the best lamb he's ever had. We bypassed dessert - the dinner portions were generous - and the prices more that fair for the food quantity and quality, and the service was impeccable. I will echo the advice of another reviewer - make reservations. I'll add my own...take a small car. Parking is limited.

How does this place not have more reviews? I had an awesome lunch here with my dad and brother a few weeks ago. Sophia was an awesome server and helped out with suggestions on kebabs, soup, and plov. Literally everything we had was delicious and really well presented. Standouts were the lagman soup, manti, and lamb kebab. It's a small restaurant so make sure to get reservations, or just be super lucky like me and walk in at the right time.
