We had dinner at this wonderful Uzbek (Central Asian) restaurant as a big family, three generations: kids, parents, and us. And all of us absolutely loved it! The food was incredibly delicious, with rich, authentic flavors and big portions that satisfied everyone. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, and the service was friendly and attentive. It’s not easy to please all ages, but this place truly did. We’ll definitely be back — a new family favorite!

This is one of those unique restaurants that serves authentic home-made dishes that are full of flavor and made with love! What a wonderful joy to be able to eat here and try these Uzbekian family recipes. And our server was wonderful, attentive and kind.

Had dinner here and tried the Greek salad along with both the beef and chicken, the portions were generous, and everything was absolutely delicious. The service was also excellent. I really appreciated the quality of the food and the overall experience. I’d definitely stop by again next time I’m in the area.

We ordered from here over 3 times because their Plov was out of this world delicious! Some of the best I’ve had so far. The food was prepared quickly and everything was fresh. The lagman wasn’t as spicy as I prefer but that’s just a matter of taste. The salad was so refreshing and went perfectly with the soup. Such a unique and tasty option to have near Miami. There aren’t a lot of Uzbek restaurants in Florida so I’m happy that we have more options. It’s a great place to explore Central Asian cuisine.

If you’re ever in Fort Lauderdale and want to try something cozy, comforting, and full of flavor go to Grandma’s Secret! This little Uzbek spot completely won me over. It honestly feels like you’re walking into your grandma’s kitchen (if your grandma was from Tashkent!). We started with the samsa golden, crispy pastries stuffed with savory beef and onions. So simple, but so good. Then came the kazan kebab... and oh my gosh, it was everything: golden potatoes, tender lamb, vegetables and just the right amount of spice. Pure comfort food. The lagman soup was another winner rich broth, soft hand-pulled noodles, and chunks of beef that melt in your mouth. Totally hit the spot. For dessert, We had the honey cake and the most amazing homemade pahlava with hot green tea the sweetest ending to a perfect meal. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. They’re happy to explain the dishes if you’re new to Uzbek food. If you want a meal that’s warm, delicious, and made from the heart this is the place!

One of my favorite local restaurants. The food is always super fresh and delicious. It’s always a pleasure to come and enjoy some traditional dishes—it brings back sweet memories of my childhood. The place has such an authentic vibe that makes you feel right at home. The owner Aida always goes above and beyond. Highly recommend this cute restaurant. Ask for Masha. She is the best Don’t forget to try their eggplant salad. My faaaav

We had an amazing experience at this small Uzbek restaurant! The food is incredibly delicious—everything is cooked on a real grill, giving it that authentic, smoky flavor. The dishes are full of rich spices and garlic, just the way traditional Uzbek food should be. You can tell everything is made with care and love. The service was top-notch—very attentive and friendly from the moment we walked in. We came in with a party of 13, and they made us feel completely comfortable and welcome. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and perfect for group gatherings or a relaxed night out. Highly recommend this hidden gem if you’re looking for something unique and truly flavorful!

5 Stars – A Central Asian Gem! Absolutely blown away by this incredible Central Asian restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality, and the atmosphere instantly made us feel welcome. The food was nothing short of amazing — every dish was bursting with authentic flavors, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. A special shoutout to our waitress, Maria, who truly made the experience unforgettable. Her knowledge of the menu, her kind recommendations, and her attentive, friendly service made us feel like honored guests. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a perfect evening. If you’re looking for a place that delivers both top-tier cuisine and exceptional service, this is it. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!
