Nafisa's Table

What a treat to have a tent dedicated to Uzbek cuisine. It seems like there's multiple permutations of filling stuffed in dough that's either baked or fried or steamed. Everything I tried was delish!Cheese & Dill Chebureki: Unlike anything I've had before and I've had a lot of savory filled dough things! The cheese is stretchy and salty and delicious. The fresh dill is a perfect herbal contrast to all that richness. The dough is light and airy and crispy, just fried to order. Also nice with that red sauce that comes on the sidePotato & Onion Piroshki: Another deep fried dough pastry. More dough and more filling than the chebureki. Kinda felt like Italian fried dough. Though the filling was definitely not Italian, with subtle smooth potatoes and caramelized onions. Surprisingly light for deep fried.Lamb Samsa: A flaky baked dough with dense bits of lamb inside. The dough on the bottom was particularly dense and hard. Wasn't crazy about the texture, but the taste was solid.Lamb Pigodi: Essentially a giant steamed dumpling, cut open and stuffed with shredded carrot salad. It was difficult to eat with the plastic spork provided. That aside, it had nicely spiced minced lamb filling and lots of thick dough outside.Shashlik Wrap: Fluffy pita bread made by them, not from a plastic bag. Lots of fresh veggies and herbs. The onions and carrot slaw give a nice tang. Plus skewers of lamb for that nice pita combination. The lamb came on skewers, so you had to pull it off. Didn't seem grilled to order, but was probably grilled a tad earlier in the day.

Gaaahhh! I almost do not want to review this place as I want it to be all mine! But gotta spread the love for these very nice folks who make the yummiest treats!I had a Potato and Onion Piroshki, Lamb and Onion Chebureki and another handheld treat which I shared with my friend ( which she devoured on the spot!).I got to try them through the Too Good To Go app. OMG! I ate so well. TGTG or not, I will be back for these delicious, hot goodies!They can be found across the street fro Heart of the City Civic Center Farmers Market on Wednesdays.

The food I had 4 days ago was just way too good and I had to come back for a second round. There is not a bad choice on the menu. AND IT IS AFFORDABLE. The rice is jammed packed with stuff. I could not wait to get home and get a fork. Yum.The service is probably the best and the kindest I have had in the city. The guy remembered me. I wish I had gotten his name because I intend to come here often. It is truly THAT GOOD.

This is one of the best spots to eat on Wednesdays if you work around the Civic Center. They are at the Heart of the City Farmers Market. I got the PIlaf and one of the beef Piroshkis, SUPER GOOD! I went right before close and they warned me the Pilaf was a little cold, I didn't care. The flavor is still amazing. Highly recommend visiting, they are also at Divisadero Farmers Market on Sunday.

The food is amazing no matter what you get. I am from Tajikistan and a good cook and I know what central Asian food should taste like. I really love their food. It tastes like food. I wish they also could make Uzbek bread
