“ Nargis Cafe is our absolute favorite restaurant! My boyfriend and I go there all the time — for lunch or dinner, almost every week. We’ve never found a better place than this one! The food is always fresh, delicious, and served in big portions. Everything tastes amazing — you can really feel the quality in every dish. The service is excellent too. Everyone is so friendly and respectful. During Ramadan, they even asked if we were fasting and kindly brought us dates and water as a compliment — such a thoughtful gesture! When it was time to eat, they brought our food right away. What’s also great is the variety — it’s not only food from Muslim countries like Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, but also Russian and Ukrainian dishes. There’s something for everyone, so you can always find something you’ll love. The atmosphere is cozy, the food is perfect, and the whole experience is always wonderful. Nargis Cafe truly feels like our go-to spot. Highly recommend! ”
“ The most delicious and flavorefull food. The presentation is also amazing. Service is impecable, everyone is extremely professional, helpful and friendly. We go often because the atmosphere is so nice and inviting as well as the food is out of this world. The only downside is- priece of coktails. So extremely expensive! ”
“ This was our first time eating at Nargis and what a pleasant experience it was! We’ve had Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, & Turkish food many times in the past but this is the first time we had Uzbek cuisine. There are some similarities or cross influences I assume, but the food was unique & delicious in its own rights. We had lunch & loved the food (see pictures of what we had & descriptions) we ordered and would definitely come back for more! The atmosphere & ambience was beautiful & clean. The service was very good—the staff were polite & helpful. No complaints overall. Only reasons I didn’t give it 5 stars were minor—our water glasses were not refilled & staff didn’t come by to check if anything was needed as hoped. Something minor but could be improved to make an excellent overall experience. Here’s my TA$TE ratings of Nargis: Taste:5 stars/delicious Ambience: 5 stars/beautiful & clean $: 5 stars/very reasonable Treatment: 4stars/service was very good but can improve on attentiveness Experience: 5 stars/overall experience was great & would definitely come back! ”
“ We were longtime patrons of the original Nargiz Cafe on Coney Island Avenue and always appreciated its authentic charm and flavorful cuisine. This was our first time visiting the newer location in the heart of Sheepshead Bay, and overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. The restaurant features a spacious main dining area on the first floor. Although the second-floor dining space was reserved for a private event during our visit, we appreciated that the facility includes an elevator, making it accessible for guests who may not be able to use stairs. The interior blends modern elegance with tasteful nods to Uzbek culture, creating a warm and stylish ambiance. As someone originally from Tashkent, I’m very familiar with traditional Uzbek cuisine, and I was impressed by the creative menu, which puts a modern twist on classic Uzbek, Russian, and Ukrainian dishes. Each dish was thoughtfully presented and full of rich, authentic flavor. One area that could benefit from improvement is the service. Compared to the previous location, this branch appears to be staffed primarily by younger adults, and while they were friendly, the attentiveness and professionalism could be elevated to match the quality of the food and decor. That said, we had a pleasant dining experience and would absolutely recommend Nargiz Cafe to anyone looking to explore Central Asian and Eastern European cuisine in a beautifully designed space. We look forward to returning—and hopefully seeing the upstairs dining next time. ”
“ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely loved my experience at Nargis Cafe in Sheepshead Bay! The food was bursting with flavor — perfectly seasoned, fresh, and beautifully presented. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere felt so inviting — cozy yet vibrant. Whether you’re going for a casual dinner or a night out with friends, Nargis never disappoints. Definitely one of Brooklyn’s gems! ”
