Good Plov First time can see that plov served with slice of lemon. Regular central Asian service Card accepted
The food, service and the environment is comfortable and delicious and professional. The waiter speaks little bit of English and can communicate important things. My friend and I enjoyed it. It seemed gay friendly too but I am not sure. Please let me know.
I am food lover and i am from Uzbekistan. The food is outstanding and authentic , definitely must visit restaurant. We ordered Uzbek pilaf, tandoori samosa , beef and lamb roll kebabs and norin (traditional uzbek food with handmade noodles and beef).
Me and my family ordered from this place and it was... disgusting the food came in a tin foil covered like,pan it looked bad and unflavored we ordered fries and they looked EXTREMELY DRY AND GROSS then we ordered chicken wings and they were so bad they maybe are maybe 2 inches we got so mad and there were only 3pc count and they were 8.99 EaCh EACH and the other meat that came with it was DRY it was as disgusting as it looked and we also had this red sauce that came with it it was not good it bad. And the grand total came up to $85.00 and the service is awful I argued with them over the phone so I don't recommend coming to this place unless you want to spend ur money that you earned with hard work on expensive dog food and left overs from other customers. 0/10
I give a rating of 4 star only because I love many dishes in this restaurant. Although this dish used to be very tasty before, this time the Kazan kebab had bones and tasted like meat from soup. It was always grilled and had square cubes of tender meat. We were eagerly awaiting the dish in anticipation of that same taste, but we were completely disappointed. I rate the dish as 1, almost $80 for this food is very expensive.
I went in to pick up my order and there was a small white girl and when she saw me she was alarmed because she didn't like my skin color or because I was Latino! there was another white boy very attentive and respectful, I waited 20 minutes after arriving the girl passed and passed I felt uncomfortable! in the end the girl gave me the food not in my hands she placed the bag on the floor and that for me was something disgusting and racist, the boy to see what he did that gave it to me in my hands and apologized! I will not eat there again I will not buy more they should treat everyone the same I went to buy not to steal Entré a recoger mi pedido y había una niña blanca pequeña y cuando me vio se alarmó porque no le gustaba mi color de piel o porque yo era latino! había otro chico blanco muy atento y respetuoso, esperé 20 minutos después de llegar !la chica pasó y pasó me sentí incómoda! al final la chica me dio la comida no en mis manos puso la bolsa en el piso y eso para mi fue algo asqueroso y racista, el chico a ver que hizo que me la dio en mis manos y se disculpo! no volvere a comer ahi no comprare mas deben tratar a todos igual fui a comprar no a robar
Ordered delivery from here since we were craving Uzbek food to celebrate a birthday. Although they raised the prices because of coronavirus, the food was packaged well and was quite tasty. I probably wouldn't order from here again once coronavirus ends and there are other Uzbek options that deliver to my apartment, but this did the job. The bread was a little hard and old so I would skip that. The Greek salad was fresh with feta cheese and basterma. Eggplant salad was a little too vinegary for me. The lamb ribs were very tasty though as well as the beef and Lulya kebabs. We didn't like the liver kebab as it was more fat than liver. The potatoes with mushrooms were too oily.
Manti: A Delicious. I've had plenty of Manti made from cheapi meati: gristli and toughi. But this meat is soft, flavorful, and no gristle. The dough is beautifully flavored. An excellent manti. Lagman: A- A "busy" soup. Lots of vegetables and stuff in the soup. In fact, I almost wished there were more soup! There are noodles that were quite long -- I found one noodle almost as tall as my 6 year old daughter. Very nice, very fresh-tasting. Lots of vegetables. A bit of anise, which isn't my favorite flavor. Kharcho: B- Slightly disappointing. I don't think I've ever said this before, but I think this soup needed more salt. But, as a rule, you never add salt to a dish because it's a poor man's way of doing it. When you add salt, you should also be adding flavor along with the salt, otherwise, you just get a salt soup. Furthermore, I wish the meat was slightly more fatty and soft. Overall, the soup was nice and savory, and I DID enjoy it, but my kharcho is an order of magnitude better and is more "lamby". Chuchvara with Sauce: A- Large beef dumpling with a small amount of tomato-based sauce on top (this dish is listed in the "soup" section of the menu, but it's definitely not a soup). The dough has the consistency of dim sum, although this is much bigger than dim sum. Delicious. Easily feeds 2 people for an appetizer; 4 if you're light eaters or have kids. Samsa: A- It comes one per order, but it's large (and hard to cut), making it a large appetizer for one person. The crust has amazing consistency: it's alternately chewy and crispy. The filling is beef, lamb, and onion. The dough had a nice oniony flavor. Non Bread: B+ No relationship whatsoever to Indian "Nan Bread". It's a medium sized disk-shaped bread with a medium-textured crust that would feed 4-6 average people. Flavor and texture is kind of like a nice rye bread. No caraway seeds, but there are nigella seeds sprinkled on top. Google tells me that this is a tandoor bread (i.e. cooked in a clay oven) and is usually eaten with copious amounts of butter. Chicken Tabaka: A The chicken was spatchcocked, soft, and juicy. I would easily use the term "cooked to perfection" for this dish. It's topped with a powerful garlic chutney. The chicken is quite small, about the size of a Cornish hen, so although you're eating the whole chicken, it's not outlandishly big for one person. In fact, if you're a heavy eater, this would be good (I think the dish would feed 2 adults, especially if you had an appetizer to share. Kazan Kabob: B Solidly good, but slightly unmemorable. It was hard figuring out what's a rib and what's lamb without studying the food, which makes the dish somewhat unremarkable. Good flavors, but it wasn't a whole lot of food for $14; not that I'm complaining, but they could've made the dish slightly more substantial by adding some vegetables or more potatoes. Beef Lula: A+ Beef Lula pretty much gets an A+ whenever it's on a menu. If you haven't had it before, I wouldn't go to Sherdor without ordering it. Honestly. There's a legend that there was a powerful king with bad teeth. He held a contest for all the chefs in the country to cook a kebob that he could chew, and the Lula kebob won the contest. It's beyond soft, and savory beyond belief. If you have kids, this is what you should order for them, but tell the waiter to not bother with the raw/under-cooked onions. I don't find that it complements the dish.
Good authentic Uzbeki food but the prices are exorbitantly high. Shish kebabs should not cost $7.00 and up. Go down McDonald Ave or even Brighton Beach and you'll get kebabs for $3-5.00 max. Food delivery is fast and prompt, they take credit cards and the portions are decent sized. I will say that the kebab orders do feel a bit skimpy and the quality of the meat is good. Location has been here for some time and while some people swear by it, I'm used to traditional Uzbeki food not costing an arm and a leg.
Service is slow and waiters attitude is like they don't want to work there; overall poor customer service. They seated us fairly quickly but took orders of people who came after us. There's an automatic 18% service charge which might account for their attitude. Said there was no more plov or manti... but someone who came after us ordered the manti and it came out of the kitchen right in front of us... The food we had was excellent tho. So you'll be coming here for the food, not the service. They have two cute little family areas that they can pull a curtain in front of for privacy, they did so for some women who came with kids, which is nice.
I love Uzbek food and I must say it's the best I had. The food was very flavourful. Plov is delicious the meat was falling off the bone. The shish kebabs and lamb chops were so tender and soft. Their salad varieties is amazing. The Sherdor salad is my favourite, it has such flavours that I would never thought to put together. I love their traditional atmosphere. The separate little cubicles for a private seating arrangement is perfect for a family dinner. Service is amazing Sarah is so sweet, she always smiles and if you go there, more than once, she will know exactly what you want next time around. The manager always there to help if you need anything extra. I strongly recommend this please. This is my go-to place when I'm in Brooklyn.
Yesterday was my mom's 60th Birthday we ordered delivery from this restaurant The meat was UNBELIEVABLE all the guests couldn't stop telling us how incredible everything was. Samsa was fresh and crispy liver was soft and delicious!!! Chicken tabaka was beyond perfection Thank you soo much for making my mom's 60th birthday soo special during a time like this !!

I live about an hour and change north of Brooklyn in Orange County NY. I was invited to meet a friend for lunch at Sherdor and was blown away by the food brought to our table! I ate until I couldn't move, and took the scraps home with me for later, not a bite of this food was wasted, it was that good! Everything was perfect about this afternoon from the light music and ambiance, clean environment and setting, but most of all the food was astounding. My friend knew the owner, who brought out the suggested food, I never even looked at the giant menu. I had never been here before, but left feeling like I had just eaten lunch with family. I will definitely return here next time I am in Brooklyn, it will be a must! read more

I am truly disappointed! We ordered for the family and paid $120, the food arrives and I am disgusted, $10 for 3 tiny pieces of wings the flats, everything in one container...we called and they didn't even care to make it right, we have ordered this food many times from different places and this is just absurd!! I would never order from here again read more

I go to Sherdor very often and like to get the lamb shish kebabs. They are always very juicy, though sometimes the seasoning is a little different depending on the night. For example, sometimes, they're a bit more peppery than other nights. Something I also always get here is manti, which are large dumplings stuffed with meat and little diced caramelized onion. The manti is seriously out of this world and I highly recommend!! They are stuffed, juicy, and seasoned wonderfully. The plov is also quite impressive and never dry. A good spot to eat and it's also a nice decorative environment. read more

This is my second time eating from this restaurant. First time I ordered takeout a year or two ago. I don't recommend this place as they have zero customer service skills at all. Never came by the table. Never asked how we were doing. We literally had to ask for our server each time. The food took a long time to come out. Overall food was okay. Nothing amazing or spectacular which I already knew from previous experience with their takeout. The only reason we came to this restaurant was because Gulchatay restaurant next door was fully booked for today as they had a party there. Sherdor was our last choice. And Little Istanbul Restaurant was too small to accommodate 12 people (my first choice). So ended up here. Our bill was overly expensive at $303 for 12 people. I would not recommend this place and would not be going back in the future. There are plenty of Georgian, Turkish, Uzbek, Russian restaurants along the whole Avenue. Will be taking our business elsewhere. (There is a reason why this place is never busy. And next door is more packed.) - A word of advice for the management if you are reading this review, please improve on your customer service, social interaction and speed of service. Because regardless how good your food might potentially get, If your customer service is lacking, you won't have repeated customers or customers at all. read more

I used to love this restaurant. An authentic Uzbek restaurant in the city. They were really good at the beginning but now they don't cook properly. Last time I went they served served burnt dumplings it smelled so bad that we couldn't eat it. Then we ordered mushroom with potato they brought potato without mushrooms. It was in there menu. Overall service was terrible. Not going back read more

It was our first time in Sherdor. We had a great experience and service was amazing. We loved lamb shashlik, Tashkent salad , achichuk and samsa. Salmon shashlik was dry. Plov was very average and norin was lacking seasoning and spices. We will definitely be back for lamb shashlik. read more

First and definitely last dine in experience in this restaurant. Worst, rude and uninformed waiter, average food. No welcoming at the first entrance, nobody helped to get seated. Waiter (skinny, bearded and short guy)who taking care of us has an attitude and extrelemy rude. We wanted to start with vostok salad. It hundred percent has cilantro inside which is not shown in the menu. We called the rude waiter and asked it has any cilantro that we dont really like it, and he said theres no cilantro in the salad. But you know cilantro has a taste that is impossible to unnoticed. And then i said okay, i called another waiter and asked same question and he didnt get anything about my question and he informed one guy looks like a floor manager, he was a nice person then he helped us and brought a new salad without cilantro. Everybody said no but new salad hadnt that weird cilantro taste, so there was cilantro. Anyway, waiters dont know anything about serving. They dont even approach the table, trying to give you the plates from 6 feet away and i was like oh i could reached you and took the plate thank you. After all terrible service they added %18 gratuity which is illegal. I never recommend this disgrace restaurant. read more
