My friend wanted to have dinner on a patio, so we decided to try this place. The patio is nice, and it was lively. There's indoor seating as well. Sometimes there was a language barrier, but we were able to order with no issues. There's free street parking, and I was able to get a spot right in front of the restaurant. Love: lamb & chicken samosas (seasoned filling, good bread, tasty sauce); wedding style pilaf (good portion, seasoned well); naan (large portion, delicious); lamb chops (seasoned well, cooked perfectly, great value) Like: service (slow but kind)
Uzbegim feels more like visiting someone's home than going to a restaurant. The place is set inside what looks like a regular house, with a large patio area that gives it a cozy and relaxed atmosphere. Seating is self-serve, and a server comes by to take your order, which made the experience feel casual and welcoming. We ordered the wedding pilaf and kebab. The wedding pilaf had great flavor and was satisfying, although it was a little oily for my personal taste. The kebab was the highlight for me -- very juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. We sat out on the patio, and it was such a pleasant spot to enjoy dinner. One thing to note is that you pay inside at the counter when you're finished. Service was straightforward and efficient. I can see why this place received Michelin recognition. The food feels authentic, comforting, and made with care. Overall, I think it deserves the praise and is definitely worth visiting if you want delicious Uzbek food in a unique, homey setting.
We had been wanting to come in after they received their bib gourmand! Food is super hearty and tasty. Service was a little slow but as to be expected at a small business when they're busy. Very cute patio that looks out towards the park. Excited to come back and try more.
The food and service at Uzbegim are always fantastic. We especially love the patio in warm(ish) weather. The portions are huge. Don't miss the Medovik (honey cake). Note: updated menu, photos attached.
Looking for the perfect bite after a walk in centennial park? Look no further than Uzbegim. I went with a friend and her dog. There is also plenty of street parking nearby. The area can be a bit rough at times so make sure to lock your doors and put away valuables before heading into Uzbegim. It's so nice that it has a covered outdoor patio with heaters and the waiter even brought us each a plush blanket. Paired with a pot of green tea we were already in maximum cozy vibes- when the food arrived we were immediately comforted but the fresh flavors of each dish. We got the lamb samosas and Assorted Golupsi. Each dish was filled with plentiful amounts of meat and mild spices. The bread of the samosas was delicious, crisp and still soft. The assorted golupsi reminded me of my mom's homemade stew in the best way with soft carrots, roasted potatoes and cabbage as well as the lovely grape leaves. The service was fast and food arrived within 5-10 minutes of ordering. The wait staff was a one man show but he was kind and quick which is always a great pairing. I'd definitely go back and bring friends/family to enjoy more dishes. The pilaf looked amazing as well as the honey cake!
The customer service was great! The food was amazing! I recommend it as first time experience
I'm giving 5 stars because the authenticity here is unmatched. It's an unassuming little spot, and when we arrived, there was nearly no one there. It was 2pm, but regardless, the place was quiet. They did not have half of the menu, though, so keep in mind that if you go you might have to choose from fewer options. For example, I wanted to try the noodles, which they did not have. Here's what we tried: Kemal Kebab (Lamb with potatoes): 9/10 - Some of the yummiest potatoes I've had! They came whole but were cooked in a rich sort of oil, and the lamb literally fell RIGHT off the bone. So good. Manti Dumplings: 8/10 - The beef inside was slightly dry but the dough casing the dumplings was SO yummy. I loved the texture. Also, the yogurt sauce is a good addition. Wedding Fried Rice: 8.5/10 - Lovely flavor to this! I normally don't like fried rice but it was rich, sweet, and saucy. Not dry like most I've had. The lamb was pretty plentiful on top as well. I don't think this place is overhyped. It might be underhyped, despite its Michelin guide recognition. I'll definitely come back to try the noodles and the naan.
The restaurant is pretty easy to find as it is located on the corner and there is a small sign out front. Surprisingly, there is some street parking very close by. I was able to find several spots less than half a block away. I did not notice any handicapped spaces, but that is not under the control of the restaurant. You must go up steps to get to the entrance door, unless there is a ramp along the other side of the building which I did not investigate. There is also a small step at the door. You enter a small waiting/ seating area with a couple tables. The counter to place your order is to right as you enter. There is more seating in the rear of the restaurant. I was greeted as I entered and given a menu to review. The host was helpful in describing the different dishes and making recommendations. After ordering I waited in the area near the door. They also have several grocery items available. The food took 15-20 minutes to arrive. It was very well packaged as a to go order. It was still hot when I arrived at my destination a few minutes later, and nothing spilled on the way there. The Olivier salad was an elevated egg salad. While not earth-shattering, it was a very pleasant start to the meal. The Uyghur fried noodle was very good. It was a relatively simple dish with good flavor and a healthy portion of beef. It was quite filling and reheated well the next day. The kufte was another winner. Again, a rather simple recipe but very well executed. For those looking for a less than common culinary experience, Uzbegim offers a great opportunity to try some excellent food.
I evidenced that Uzbegim cook the Uzbek foods in a high professional way! The Pilav taste is the same as the one in Uzbekistan! The Somsa was reach to the lamb meat and yummy! I do recommend to visit Uzbegim in Nashville, TN to enjoy the high class real Uzbek foods!
Starting off, the staff was super helpful and friendly! The restaurant was very clean and had nice outdoor seating. This is my first time trying Uzbek food and it was great! The meat with the fried noodles had an amazing flavor and the noodles were thick and yummy! The lamb was great as well! There was plenty street parking near the restaurant when I went. Definitely recommend coming here and will be back!
Was very excited to try this Uzbek spot! Of course I had to order the manti (dumplings) , they were just the right amount of savoriness. Buttery and delicious! Also ordered the central asian version of naan which was ok. The Shurpa soup was also great. It had lamb, carrots, potatoes, dill and other veggies. I am looking forward to trying other dishes next time!
Found this from the Michelin recommended list. It's a little out of the way of downtown Nashville in a neighborhood. The place had only a couple of diners in its very simple dining area- which was surprising given its recognition. Another reviewer's note we read was no lie- they literally don't have half of the items they claim to on their menu. Honestly, they should redo their menu or give you a heads up in advance. The service is sub-par and you then realize that the food is why this place is recognized. Its menu is unique Uzbek fare and the food is flavorful. The lamb is stewed perfectly and you must try. We also loved the honey cake and roasted potatoes. I'm glad we tried this place but will probably not return due to the service and very limited menu.
We were visiting Nashville and excited to see an Uzbek restaurant, so we drove 20 minutes to get there. There's no accessibility for anyone with disabilities and parking was not easy. The staff was not very welcoming. There was a basket of silverware and napkins on the table. The utensils were dirty. We asked for clean ones. The food was awful. The chicken and cheese samosa was tough chicken with tons of onions and the bread was chewy. The golupsi looked nothing like the menu picture and they were not good. The meat cutlets were still pink inside. The lamb shawarma came out much later than the other entrees for one of the people in our party even though it's considered a starter. The server had zero personality and kept handing the dishes to the wrong people. Once the food was dropped off, she did not return one time. We had to flag her down for the check. She looked at our plates that were all at least 3/4 full and asked if we wanted to-go boxes. She didn't even ask if there was an issue seeing no one ate their food. We spent $65 and left. It was terrible. Not sure how this place got a Michelin rating. We definitely won't be back when we visit Nashville again.

Uzbegim The feel of Uzbegim is a small restaurant near a college campus. Plain decor with the occasional noise from a bug being zapped. The food: Kazan Kebab - slow roasted lamb chops served with sliced onions. These were very flavorful and tender. Manti - we ordered beef. Six large dumplings that were served with a yogurt sauce. Delicious. Assorted Dolmas - I'm not normally a fan of dolmas since I'm usually thinking the tart, cold, Greek style. These were warm and like vegetable wrapped dumplings. Kimchi - seems kind of random, but we wanted veggies and this was good kimchi. Chaykhana Pilaf - rice and lamb. Solid. Xinjiang Fried Lagman - hand pulled noodles so they're nice and chewy. Pretty good. Lowkey, good food, good prices. read more

Fantastic! I was in Nashville visiting for work and wanted to check out Centennial Park. Was looking for somewhere nearby for some lunch and came across Uzbegim. Having never tried Uzbek food before, this was a no brainer! Highly, highly recommend trying something off the grill. The Tovuq chicken kebab I tried was SO juicy and tender and delicious. It came out hot and fresh, with a great char and spiced to perfection. The skewer was complemented with thinly sliced raw onion, which were pretty mild and sweet. If I ever have a chance to make it back here, I will definitely try other items off their grilled menu. I also got the Fried Laghman noodle dish, and this was very tasty as well! Generous amount of meat with great flavor. The handmade noodles were chewy and thick, and despite being fried, it was not too heavy or oily. Loved the very subtle sour vinegar/lemon in this dish and good amount of veggies to round it out too. I had ordered the Uzbek bread as well, which surprised me with how big it was. Especially for the price, I was expecting something really small and it's actually huge. In my opinion, this was just okay, not a lot of flavor but beautifully presented and good value for sharing if you come hungry! Service was friendly and prompt. Restaurant was pretty quiet when I was there for an earlier lunch time. Upstairs they have a small store where you can buy breads and pantry items to go. read more

Saw this place on Nashville Hidden Gems and was rather mad that I didn't know about it earlier. Over the years of going to Elliston Pl, and even eating at Michelangelo's, I was very pleased to see another Uzbek restaurant here in Nashville. This place truly is a hidden gem. I went in knowing it would be good for Halal food. The menu was easy to read and the food was delicious. I got the fried Uyghur lagman. I also got an order of Uzbek bread. The staff were friendly and I definitely will be back. They really improved the look on the inside from what I remember going in to Michelangelo's. In fact, there were other people in there ordering pizza. So they either share the space or are related to the owners. As far as I know, the parking is free in the back as long as you are visiting a business at Elliston Place. I highly recommend. read more

Visiting from California... Cute place, you can sit inside or outside. There's some music playing in the background at the perfect volume. The restaurant and cafe are connected. The staff is friendly and attentive, they will help with recommendations. The food was delicious and freshly made, it came out hot and the flavors were so good! If you're thinking of coming here, do it! They have sweets and coffee too if you're feeling like a decadent treat. Great place, glad I came! read more

Efficient and friendly service. When a nearby restaurant could not prepare a simple appetizer with tea in 30 minutes, Uzbegim and Amor de Cafe delivered it in half the time and at competitive prices. The place is clean and also has an outdoor seating. read more

There's a reason why this restaurant won a 2025 Michelin Bib Gourmand Award. Every single dish was amazing! The Manti, the Wedding Rice, the Uyghur Noodles, along with the Uyghur Soup, the Uzbek Nan Bread were so flavorful, my wife and I ate the the exact same order two days in a row. Both desserts were amazing as well (the Honey & the Napoleon Cake). The service was welcoming, friendly, and fast. Highly recommended restaurant! Osh and Uzbegim are can't-miss restaurants when visiting or living in Nashville. read more
