Ulfatlar Osh is in the western part of the city, about 2 km west of Alisher Navoi Park. It is popular with residents — reviewers say taxi drivers know exactly where to go if you ask for “Ulfatlar plov”. In summer there is seating on an open terrace.
The draw is Samarkand plov; one portion feeds two or three. An early-2026 review put a portion at 88,000 som and salads at 8,000–10,000. Order salads, bread and tea alongside. Closed on Sundays.
