The business grew from a delivery-only service launched in 2023 into a full dine-in establishment, serving dishes such as Uzbek Plov cooked in a traditional cauldron, hand-pulled Lagman noodles, and steamed Manti dumplings. It fills a distinctive culinary niche as one of very few authentic Uzbek restaurants in Vancouver, with a warm atmosphere designed to reflect Central Asian dining traditions.","source":"sonnet_4.6"},"website":{"value":"https://tashkent-restaurant.com/","source":"enrichment"},"address":{"value":"88 West Pender Street, Vancouver","source":"enrichment"},"phone":{"value":"+1-236-688-0778","source":"enrichment"},"email":{"value":"order@tashkent-restaurant.com","source":"html"},"route_slugs":[],"centrally_administered":false,"bike_parking_detail":"6 racks within 100m: rack at 38m; rack at 51m; stands (5 spaces) at 68m; stands (2 spaces) at 69m; rack at 70m; stands (2 spaces) at 78m.
