Barak Dumplings - the fried ones were best in my opinion, the whole table enjoyed themAlfredo pizza- this was the winner of the night! So good you have to trySteak kebabs- usually better, it was a bit undercooked I asked for medium and some pieces were super pink and it had a lot of fat on itThe mashed potatoes were not good, I do not like the rice here either. I would opt for the veggies (so fresh & tasty) or the fries.I'd give this place a 3.5/5 stars

Karavan is located in a shopping center in Garner. The restaurant is casual. The food is amazing here but the service leaves something to be desired.We were seated promptly, brought menus, then about 30 seconds later wanted to take the orders. the menu is half Uzbekistan food and half Italian depending what you are in the mood for. When I did order non, I was told that was bread. I'm not sure why she thought I'd just get an entree. So I explained I wanted an appetizer. Then I ordered the eggplant after seeing the rave reviews. For my entree I went with the steak kebab and did the veggies and rice for the sides.The eggplant portion was very generous so most of that was taken to go. I liked that it was in chunks and the flavoring was delicious. The steak kebab was also good size and I would have finished it there but sensed they wanted us to leave.I'd eat here again but would order to go next time to avoid the service issues.

It's a place where you can get tasty Uzbek and Italian food at the same time. We got the fried lagman, plov and the bortsch soup. Also Philly cheesesteak. All were decent. The waitress was friendly and kind although the front desk person was cold and unfriendly when we went in. Ambiance is not bad.

My husband and I came here in 2022 and loved everything we ordered. I am ashamed to admit we forgot Karavan existed but happened to be down in the Garner area for an event and stopped in again. We both expressed dismay at how long it took us to come back because it's just as good in 2024 as it was the first time we visited. We ordered borsch, Khachapuri and Uzbek Manti. Everything was fabulous and I'm promising myself not to wait so long to return.

The service was wonderful! Victoria was the best waitress EVER! I loved the new menu options!! I loved Mediterranean food and absolutely loved the new food. I don't think like cilantro and the plov has cilantro the only reason for 4 stars. I wish they would have included that but everything else was wonderful. Bathroom nice and clean, plenty of parking would def be back

We had this food delivered to our hotel. We were exhausted after a longstanding day of driving. What a great end of the day with some authentic Ubek/Georgian cuisine.

No complains as food to me is superb! Only thing is the Plov which the rice is undercooked. They were nice to replace but still the same and allowed to use to cancelService is very good and our server is very accommodating!

Wherever I am, I usually try to support local mom and pop restaurants and usually, it's a pleasant surprise! Karavan by 3 Olives is one of those types of spots, a Uzbeki restaurant in what is a more standard, Italian-American pizza spot. I had come here for a takeout pizza during the pandemic but decided a return visit was needed. Karavan probably does more of a take-out, delivery business but they've got a fairly large (and quiet) dining room decked out in slightly central Asian (I'm guessing) decor. The Uzbeki menu on the back on their pizza menu and covers starters, soups, entrees and kebabs, maybe 20 or so items? I have no idea what I'm ordering so I get some fried barak and chicken kebabs with veggies and rice. The barak are delicious, like beef fried wontons and served with a tomato dipping sauce. And the kebabs come out super hot, chicken thighs with grilled veggies and a toothsome rice pilaf. It's all delicious and I'm already looking forward to trying more off the menu. And while I don't know Uzbeki eats well, I know what Karavan serves up is pretty delish. If you're in the area (Garner Station) stop on by and dine at this hidden gem. I've even tried the pizza and that's pretty darn good, too!
