Samarkand Restaurant

You can find us at No.66 in Gem Plaza on Infantry Road. We are right near the Monarch Hotel, which helps people locate us in the 560001 part of Bangalore. Samarkand Restaurant is the name we’ve had for a long time. It’s a busy area and the street is always packed with vehicles and shoppers. We have a decent-sized space inside the plaza. It’s not a high-end luxury spot, just a place to sit down and eat. We have our regulars who come in for lunch almost every day. The staff is mostly the same people who have been here for years. We know the kitchen like the back of our hands. Sometimes the delivery bikes take up all the space out front. We just manage as best as we can. We don't use any slick marketing or big posters. People know us or they don't. The chairs are a bit old and the menus are just printed on cardstock. It’s a practical setup. We spend a lot of time cleaning and prepping for the next day. It’s a simple business. We don't try to be anything we aren't. If you are on Infantry Road and hungry, we are just there in Gem Plaza. We just keep things moving and serve whoever walks through the door. It’s a local place through and through.
