Tucked away in the little lanes of Mt Washington is this gem of a place that pops up almost out of nowhere in the heart of a homely neighborhood. Where do I start.. Ok.. so they have a separate vegetarian menu..that's one star right there! The dishes are a nice balance of truly authentic with a couple of fusion options thrown in like Pasta or Eurasian stroganoff. We started with the mushroom and potato Samsa, eggplant rolls and stuffed tomatoes. I would have given the place 5 stars right there! But we didn't stop there did we. My boyfriend and I proceeded to order the traditional Uzbek bread and the mushroom soup, because soups are apparently important in the Uzbek culinary experience. Both were fantastic, fresh and warmly soothing on a cold winter evening. And then we also tried the Manti, the stuffed dumplings. We couldn't decide if we wanted the pumpkin ones or the spinach ones and our waitress sweetly suggested bringing us a half plate one type and the other half of the other. Problem solved! I'd actually give them a couple of extra stars for the service if I could! Our waitress was so helpful, accommodative and efficient. The one think I wish they had on heir menu was vegetarian plaf! (A rice dish). But our waitress told us that all we had to do is to call ahead next time and they'd have it made! The overall experience was like dining in a warm, friendly Uzbek home! (Shoutout to the interesting interiors!) Here's a business that values its patrons and they've found a huge fan in me. Of course, I took some of the baklava home for a late night snack. Both my heart and tummy slept happy and satisfied last night!

Yet again GlobalPittsburgh hosted a closing lunch for a group of six Russian medical professionals, host families, and professionals at Kavsar on Dec. 7! Dining at Kavsar is always a pleasure but dining there in December is a whole different story! The traditional and authentic ambiance is doubled with the holiday decorations that our guests loved. One of the delegates was born in Uzbekistan and commented that Kavsar's samsa reminded her home as it tasted exactly how she remembered in her childhood. The portions were very generous, the food was fresh and tasty. Everyone left satisfied and the leftovers could feed another group of 20! We surely will be back for another group event or celebration! I highly recommend Kavsar restaurant!

Fantastic Uzbekistan food. We ordered from UberEats late at night when most things were closed already. We were blown away by the quality of the food. There were many great options for our picky vegetarian in our group. The beef stroganoff was amazing, supple and tender beef that melted in your mouth. The perogies were light and perfectly cooked. THE BREAD The bread was the star of the show. I ate nearly half a loaf after eating a VERY generous portion of beef stroganoff. I was full before i started to eat the bread but kept eating well after i should have stopped. The baklava were massive and amazing, this was after I ate a half of loaf of bread. If you are in Pittsburgh is a must try.
