Samarkand Restaurant brings Uzbek cuisine to Shelard Park, positioning itself as Minnesota's only restaurant dedicated to the tradition. The menu draws on Central Asian staples, with mantu dumplings, shurpa soup, samsa, lamb chops, kebabs, and toki dolma among the dishes diners come back for.
Beyond the regular menu, Samarkand runs pre-set banquet menus for private events, birthday parties, and family gatherings, serving its dishes family-style for larger celebrations.
