Wow.... Just go here! Great flavor. I was very impressed with the quality of the food. Especially the lamb! The restaurant is very clean, and staff were very professional and nice. The cuisine is similar to Mediterranean food, so if you like that style you will love this place! Get place for lunch or dinner.We will be back soon!

There's actually a very diverse selection of dining choices in Sacramento county. I believe the eats here to be better than anywhere in the north.In the Caravan, it's healthy eating. Everything we've tried is fresh and delicious; it also hits the table hot. A big plus! The fries are incredible; crunchy but not too much salt or too much grease! The kabobs are a solid choice, too. Never dry, very flavourful.It's a tiny little eatery with a half a dozen tables that might just fit a couple dozen people.We've a great respect for Farhod and Aziza. A loving warmth every time we enter. It's nice to be welcomed sincerely and appreciated. Maybe that's why we keep coming back?They are in an outstanding location with a decent amount of parking. I can't comment on rush times but I can say that they could raise their very reasonable prices and we would still be back! 02/25

If you're looking for authentic Uzbek cuisine, this place is an absolute gem! The shurpa and lagman are truly exceptional--rich, flavorful, and comforting, just as they should be. The kebabs are a standout too--each one incredibly tender and bursting with flavor.We decided to trust our waitress's recommendation and ordered the combo platter, and it did not disappoint! It was a perfect way to sample a variety of their offerings, and everything was cooked to perfection.

The kabab is great It's a small restaurant with only 6 dining booths. The service is slow though. Needs some patience while waiting for the good food.

PORTIONS: appropriate PRICE: appropriate - leaning toward priceySERVICE: table sideAMBIANCE: clean and cozyFLAVORS:Lamb chops (5/5) so juicy!! Perfect flavor, not overcooked Lyula (5/5) so full of flavor Beef (4/5) spice was good, drier Okroshka (4/5) BONUS TIP: don't think they have a public bathroom? If they do, it's behind the "employees only" gate, so you might have to ask about that.

I was in the area for meetings and hadn't eaten lunch yet. I did a quick search on Yelp and saw that Caravan Uzbek Cuisine Halal was close by, open and had great reviews. After seeing some of the photos on Yelp I was sold and headed straight over.They're located in a group of businesses with parking available right out front. The whole building is wrapped and there were signs on the street that made it easy to spot.I walked in and the location is medium sized with six booths and then a front area for ordering and paying. I was greeted when I walked in and decided to order take out.I chose the Beef Samsa ($5), Chuchvara ($15) and Shawarma Beef ($12). They let me know it would be about 20 minutes and I sat in one of the booths and checked my emails while I waited.When the food was ready, it was packed into individual bags and came out HOT. After driving the 25 minutes home everything was still nice and warm. I plated everything at home and took photos before digging in.The Beef Samsa was delicious and crispy on the outside but flavorful and tender on the inside. I think it was supposed to come with a sauce but I didn't receive any sauces with my take out. I think it would have been a bit better with something to dip it in.The Chuchvara was also tasty. I had never had this dish before but the dumplings were very good and the broth had a dill flavor to it.The Shawarma was my favorite part of the order. The mixture of beef, veggies and sauces was perfect with the toasted bread wrapped around it.All of the dishes came in generous portions and I ended up having leftovers for 1-2 meals since I was the only one eating these.I would definitely explore more of their menu next time I'm in the area.

Wow, a great meal in an unassuming location. Family-run restaurant treated guests like family too. We tried Samsi (Uzbek's answer to samosas, but huge, with flaky crust and tender fillings), Plov (rice pilaf with seasoned shredded beef), and a selection of kebabs hot off the grill. All very good quality and delicious. The hostess said they will be moving to a larger location in 2025--we wish them well and will be back for our next family gathering in the Sacramento area.

In a nutshell; one of the best tasting shawarma in town. I wasn't too familiar with Uzbek Cuisine so thought to try this place out. It's a small spot with comfy booths. The menu wasn't the largest and they were out of one of the items in the menu at the time but I was pleasantly surprised with how good the shawarma was. The outer layer was lightly toasted and crispy which compliments the inner layer of the delicious chicken and the rest of the goodness. Looking forward to try the rest of the menu. Handful of parking spots outside. Staff were nice. Overall a good experience. Seems they have a food truck by north highlands so if you can't drive by citrus heights, there's a truck by north highlands.

I could smell their grilled meat all the way from my parking spot. We ordered a lagman and a lamb rack. The lagman was a good ole hearty soup and reminded me of a borscht soup with noodles. It was not too filling since the soup was pretty small. Few pieces of meat and noodles. Mostly cabbages and bell peppers. The lamb rack was exceptionally juicy and fat was rendered perfectly.

What a rude owner! When we told them that their staff didn't treat us properly, they responded even more rudely than their staff. Just look at this picture--everything is clear.
