Mahallaosh

A plov centre on Navoi Avenue in the west of the city, serving Samarkand plov at lunchtime and — unusually — in the evening as well.

Samarkand, Samarkand Region Uzbek
Price $$$$ under 70k sum · average bill per person
Opening hours Mon–Sat 11:00–22:00 (break 15:00–17:00), Sun 11:00–15:00
Address 342 Alisher Navoi Ave (Tutzor mahalla) Directions

Mahallaosh is in the western part of Samarkand, about 1.6 km east of the State Museum of the History of Culture of Uzbekistan. It is a plain, canteen-style place where mostly locals eat. The draw is Samarkand plov, ordered with salads, ayran, tea and bread.

Portions are large: 2026 reviews put a portion at around 90,000 som and say that one, or even half, is enough for two. Unlike many plov centres, it serves an evening plov once the break ends at 17:00; on Sundays it closes at 15:00.

Information checked: October 2026. Prices and hours can change — call ahead before you go. We do not take bookings: contact the venue directly.
