Surprisingly good place especially with lamb dishes. Pretty clean lobby with a cake/dessert show case. I was very surprised with eggplant salad in which the cubed eggplant was fried to crisp and tender inside; on the top of greens. Different and delicious. Lamb soup and lamb noodles are delicious too. Big portion and perfect for a winter cold day. Finished up with the honey cake In a right sugar taste. There was only one girl which was very attentive and polite. read more

Highlights: * Such delicious food * Hidden gem of Bolingbrook * Good value Context: * Takeout * Treated my parents and they went again so they could try other dishes It's tough to find Uzbek food in the SW suburbs of Chicago so Caravan is a rare treat! We went with some of the Uzbek classics like manti and Lagman and they did not disappoint. Manti were packed with meat and goes so well with plov. read more

Second time trying Uzbek food but first time here. In a small strip mall, the restaurant with table service was nicely decorated. My friend and I wanted to try a couple dishes so shared the salad with warm eggplant pieces, amazing!! For the main entrees we tried a chicken and beef dish. Loved the fried chicken but the beef was a little tough. Two out of three I'd get again. Service was prompt and friendly staff. read more

Decided to try a new Uzbek restaurant that opened a few months ago and so glad we stopped in! Decided to get an overall sampler and it was a great deal. It included 2 manti, kefta kabob, grilled chicken and beef shank with French fries, grilled peppers and carrot and cabbage salad. The fruit tea was addicted and for dessert we had a white chocolate coconut cake. If you're in the area it was a great meal for the price. read more

Caravan is fantastic! The food is incredibly fresh and delicious, with perfectly cooked and seasoned meats. I especially enjoyed the tomato cucumber salad and the lamb soup topped with dough. Although there were two different vinegar options on the table, I found the soup flavorful enough without needing much. Overall, a great dining experience! The water is bottled and was free not entirely sure why when they should have Lake Michigan tap water but whatever totally good meal read more

Caravan Restaurant - Uzbek Near Me - Bolingbrook, Illinois

I have never had Uzbeki food before. This was the best food I have had in a long time! Staff were also friendly and lovely- but to be clear the food was such a level of amazingly delicious that I'm logging onto yelp for the first time in years just to leave a review. We got the lamb dumplings, carrot salad, yogurt salad, and the salad that includes eggplant. I'm eating the leftovers for breakfast and looking forward to it already. It's the highlight of this quick out of town trip for me, and I regret that I am from out of state and unlikely to be back to IL anytime soon. 11/10; once I get back home I will certainly dream about coming back to eat at this restaurant again. read more

Tried for the first time & altho service was good food left a little more to be desired. Small local diner that serves Uzbek food. Menu limited in comparison to another Uzbek restaurant I visited in Naperville. Fruit tea was delicious, salads okay & caravan platter for two was mediocre. Again not bad just disappointed since I went based on the great reviews I read. Glad I visited but really don't anticipating another visit. read more

The place is very inviting when you walk in. It is very clean including the bathrooms. The decor, furnishings made you feel welcoming. This would be at least 3rd or 4th time being there and each time we enjoyed each viset. The last time we had the platter for two. This gave us a choice to learn a bit what the ozbac food taste like. Always are first choice is the soup. The one we choice is like a dumping soup. Not sure the name of it but when explained what we wanted they explained had ran out. This made us want to try another kind so it worked out well. The other one again not knowing what it was but we read the description it was similar of a vegetable soup. It was serviced hot and very tasty. I would order it again for sure. It was loaded with vegetables. Following was the platter for two. It had a few what I would call side dishes and different meats. All were very good. Some were not much different that Americans food. Everything hot and tasty. Nothing to spicey that you had to worry about but some sauce was on the table if interested and it was very spicy and hot. I didn't like care for it They don't serve alcohol but different beverages in the cooler. When you are finished you go to the cashier to pay but thinking they were going to one to table. She came by after sitting and waiting for her to take our money. The food is freshly cooked therefor does take some time to cook. Ii was good and will return again.

Yet another Central Asian restaurant in the Chicagoland area! It's been fun trying them out. So far I've tried Anjir, Chinar, Jannat, and Sorry Mommy. Now we tried Caravan. Caravan is located in a strip mall, to the far left. Parking is decent. When we went inside, we didn't see a worker, so we seated ourselves. It turns out there was only one server taking/delivering orders. Service was friendly enough. There are about eight tables inside, mostly four-seaters but one larger table with eight chairs. The interior is nothing fancy. Anjir and Chinar feel nicer. Caravan didn't feel like the type of place where you could have a cozy conversation. Oddly, the other dozen or so customers were all men; we were the only family with a child. The table settings were decent with proper plates and silverware. We ordered plov, manty, and chuchvara. The plov was a bit dry, but thankfully not as greasy as other places. I suppose this was a healthier plov since it didn't have overly fatty meat. The manty was on par with other places, although I feel Anjir has the best manty so far. The chuchvara was somewhat disappointing because the soup broth was nearly flavorless (compared to Jannat); however, the dumplings inside were excellent. Overall, not a bad option, but not my favorite from the five Uzbek restaurants I've tried so far read more

First time ever to an Uzbek place for me, and I was impressed. They got off to a great start by having Pepsi (Coke too for Coke fans), and then not asking for a tip on their automated checkout screen for a carryout order. Even before tasting one morsel of food, I was already getting good vibes. The young lady that works the register (also the waitress for dine-ins) was very helpful in suggesting a dish that I might like. I went with their goulash, a bit different from the Eastern European ones I'm used to, but nevertheless yummy! Unlike other goulash dishes I've had in the past, this one was not a stew-like mixture of stuff. Instead, stuff was isolated (though all together). On the "bottom layer" was rice, mashed potatoes, rotini and buckwheat. This was all topped with very tender beef strips, all covered in a red sauce. On top of that was a carrot salad. Delicious! I'll certainly be back to check out more. read more

Awesome food & service. Everything tasted great, & the coffee & apricot juice were refreshing. Will definitely be back. read more

I'm trying Uzbek food for the first time. I have an Indian pallette but found this well spiced and flavorful. Loved it. This is a cute little well-kept place you should try read more

Open your mind, your palate, and prepare for a unique experience! I'm a seasoned and well-travelled enthusiast of Middle-, Near- and Far-East foods, and this is one of the areas I had not yet experienced. It did not disappoint. The food is hearty, savory, and full of flavor! My wife had the Chili Meat-Achik Gusht, which is like the best pot roast you've ever had. Try it with the vinegar concoction on the table, it adds a lot of zing! I had the Ghan-Phan, which was reminiscent of an Asian rice dish but with a savory stewed lamb. Really interesting. Very kind service. The ambiance is quaint, and is simple yet comfortable. Great experience, *highly recommend* it if you're looking for something new and different! Everything is Halal, and there are even special Iftar (daily fast-breaking) special offerings during Ramadan. read more

I just had a sumptuous Uzbek meal from here, it fulfilled my desire to eat something weird/good. The samosa looked like the laghman (bread, pictured), and was delicious. I recommend this restaurant highly. read more

Some of the most authentic Uzbek and Central Asian cuisine we've ever had outside of Central Asia. Every dish we ordered, if we closed our eyes we were immediately transported back. For context, my wife is from Kyrgyzstan and I lived in Central Asia for five years and travelled throughout the region. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend. read more
