Xiva Restaurant

Xiva Restaurant is the Uzbek restaurant of the Hyatt Regency Tashkent at 1 Navoi Street, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Named after the historic Silk Road city of Khiva, it offers a comfortable, hotel-standard way to try the national dishes of Uzbekistan, and it suits travellers who prefer a familiar setting and consistent service while exploring the capital.

Plov is the signature, the rice dish cooked with carrot, onion and meat that is the national food. Lamb shashlik, grilled on skewers, and manty, the steamed dumplings, complete the core Uzbek selection. As a hotel restaurant it also provides breakfast options. Main plates cost roughly 100,000-250,000 UZS, about $8-21, noticeably higher than independent Uzbek restaurants, reflecting the hotel setting and service.

The room is calm and comfortable, with the formal, orderly feel typical of an international hotel. Noise is low to moderate, and dress is casual to smart casual. Meal periods are daily 06:30-11:00 for breakfast, 12:00-15:00 for lunch and 18:00-22:30 for dinner, so there is a gap in the afternoon when the restaurant is closed.

Reservations are advised for dinner, and the hotel can be reached on +998 71 207 12 34. At breakfast and lunch, tables are generally available without notice. The restaurant's official page is hosted on the Hyatt restaurants site.

The Navoi Street location places Xiva in central Tashkent, close to the main sights and business district. It is a good choice for first-time visitors who want to sample plov, shashlik and manty in a comfortable environment, for business meals, or for guests staying at the hotel.
