Master Critic Review

EuroAsia Restaurant 7.7
Near North Side
A halal Central Asian kitchen that offers a different lane from the neighborhood’s usual shawarma-and-falafel rotation, leaning into dishes like plov and dumplings. It’s best when you order classics that highlight slow-cooked meats and rice rather than chasing novelty.
Must-Try Dishes: Plov, Manty, Samsa

Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes if you want something low-pressure and conversation-friendly, though it’s more about comfort food than ambiance.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Most nights, yes — walk-ins are usually fine, especially on weeknights.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes — mild rice dishes and dumplings work well for kids, though there’s no dedicated kids menu.
Best For
Better for: Slow-cooked Central Asian comfort dishes like plov that you won’t find at typical shawarma spots.
Skip if: You’re looking for flashy presentation, trendy vibes, or a broad vegetarian/vegan menu.
