User Review:

• The Bukhara restaurant is designed with stone walls, wooden pillars and cushion-covered stools at mock log-top tables. It has an open display kitchen, where meat and vegetables hang from swordlike kebab spears. The restaurant serves cuisine from the North-West frontier of Pakistan prepared in a clay 'tandoor' oven with a special emphasis on kebabs. In a bid to encourage diners to savor the restaurant's kebabs with their hands, cutlery is withheld and aprons are provided. The restaurants is famed for its kebabs and its signature dishes include the Sikandari Raan (Marinated Whole Leg of Spring Lamb) and Murgh Malai Kebab (Creamy Chicken Kebab). The restaurant was voted Best Asian restaurant and 37th best in the world by Restaurant Magazine, UK in 2007. It has often found a place amongst the magazine's top 50 ratings since 2002 and is considered to be one of the best Indian cuisine restaurants in the world.
