We’ve gone to this place several times and the quality stays the same. Food is excellent and served fairly promptly. Only down side is they sometimes run out of food but that’s really my only complaint. The booths are comfortable and the whole place is beautiful.
I just wanted to leave a very satisfied review. I’m originally not from Omaha, but have been living here for the past 5 years because of school. I grew up with a Slavic family, so when I moved here, I could not find a place that serves the kind of food I ate with my family. There’s places in Lincoln, but Omaha doesn’t have a big Slavic community (that I know of). I was so happy when I found this place! This food is fresh and authentic. It reminded me of what my mom and grandma would make for me at home. I hardly get to come home because of how busy school gets, so when I get homesick, I would go to this restaurant with my boyfriend. I highly recommend this place! Especially the kebabs, salads, and borscht. The food served here is unlike anything else that is offered in Omaha. Go here and explore a different kind of culture of food.
Hands down some of most delicious kabobs I’ve had amazing. Good little place good service definitely coming back. Highly recommend.
Looking for a beautiful place to hangout to get a feel of the ethnic decorations and cuisines of the Middle East? Then this is a perfect place for you. The place mainly features foods of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. We ordered Sambusa, Cutlet and Chicken Kebab. All of them were delicious. We ended our day with the black tea which actually helps to digest your food. Though “Chaikhana” literally means Tea House but their main course is more exquisite here. The behaviour of the manager was also nice and humble. He came to us to share the story of the place. It is new but definitely one of a kind in the town.
Everything was cooked to perfection. My favorite was the Manti (steamed beef Dumplings). The wrapper was the perfect thickness and during the steaming process a great sweet and beefy broth is created inside and great way to start eating the dumpling. Touch of sour cream cuts through the hearty filling and make you want more.
The Sambusa were also great. Baked flaky pastry with a great beef filling inside. Wash all down with a good borsch soup.
Lastly, the booths were soooo comfortable that I wanted to take a nap after the meal. Great experience, value and excellent service.
Been here today. This place was recommended by my friend and we loved it.
We ordered chicken kabob, Grilled Shrimp, hummus. Chicken was so juicy and rich in taste, shrimp is very flavorful.
Priced good and the service was quick. The people were friendly.
Chicken shawarma and gyro was good. Food was fresh. I would of enjoyed more chicken in the Shawarma. The place is really cute, great for a date night. And customer service was outgoing and kind.
We ordered kabobs and wraps... everything was delicious.
The steak was flavorful and done perfectly. The chicken was moist and delicious.
We also had a shawarma that was amazing. I ordered additional to go.
The sambusa was fought over for the appetizer... next time we'll get more!
The service was quick, prompt, and polite. The benches plush. Ambiance was artful and peaceful.
We will definitely be back!
For being the first Tajik restaurant in Omaha, this place is amazing. It feels cozy and the atmosphere is family-oriented. The food was great and I enjoyed every bit of it down to the dessert. It’s still fairly new in town and I’m pretty sure as time goes by, it’ll get even better. The food is priced moderately and well-portioned. Our service was great and the owner is awesome! Thank you for sharing a taste of Central Asian cuisine.

I had Chaikhana Bread, Sambusa and Pilav. It was fabulous! Ravshan the owner was so wonderful and very pleasant. He told me a little about Tajikistan and helped me choose some traditional dishes to try. The decor is beautiful and it has custom furniture, done in a traditional style with pillows on the booths (that was a very neat touch). They also play traditional music for you to enjoy. I loved everything about this place and I would definitely recommend!
1st time visiting and we were pleasantly surprised. Great waiter, average wait time, and very comfortable. I especially liked the chicken kabob. Defiantly a spot to return to and try new things. Would recommend to all.
An excellent and interesting new dining experience for my husband and I this evening. We were just passing by and on impulse decided to give the a try. We were very impressed with the clean and beautiful traditionally decorated interior. The food was outstanding - all fresh and cooked to order. Highly recommended and we will definitely return.
Great food, great service, and great atmosphere. One of my favorite places to eat in town.
Definitely one of the most unique restaurants in Omaha! Definitely a must for every true foodie
Kebabs, rice, salad- everything was great!
Some items in the menu were not available.
Comfortable seats, ethnic Tajik design.
Amazing place. First Russian cuisine restourant in Omaha. Now you have chance to try all famous dishes: olivie salad, borsch soup, pilav, manti, lamb kabob and other.
Great experience. Food was good. Borscht was tasty as well as the lamb and beef kabobs. First time here, but will be back.
Tajikistan food. A newer establishment with unusual food. Inside the booths and tables are set with plush seating in traditional style of Tajikistan. Ornate carved table tops. A small bar in the back corner.
The food is made fresh and it has a spicy side without being overtly hot. We chose a variety of items and each was tasty. You can try the chicken Shawarma sandwich and fries, similar to a Gyro, if you want to start with something familiar. The Pilav had small chucks of beef that was fork-tender.
Service was good, though it was not busy the night we went (COVID-19 and all).
If you light ethnic foods and want to a new spot this place is worth your time. It is tucked in the corner of the strip mall on the east side of 90th Street between Maple and Blondo Sts next to the Neighborhood Wal-Mart grocery.
