A traditional Uzbek restaurant about 300 m from Registan Square, known for lamb shashlik, lagman, manti and shurpa at prices modest for the area.
Shokhrukh Nur stands on Suzangaron Street, southeast of Registan Square and about 300 m from it. Travel guides single it out among the traditional Uzbek restaurants around the Registan because, despite the location, prices stay moderate.
The star of the menu is lamb shashlik, and diners also rate the lagman, manti, beef shurpa and salads. Alongside the Uzbek classics there are a few more contemporary dishes, and draught beer to drink. Friday and weekend evenings get busy.
