Bukhara looks like a cross between the narrow curry shops of London and a Pottery Barn showroom. Hand-woven rugs are strewn about, and the lighting is dim; copper baltis and rustic plate-ware glimmer. Walls are exposed brick. The food,… Read Full Editorial
My Review by benk1661809744 via Citysearch on 11/7/2012
Awesome restaurant for anybody loves Indian food. Don't listen to the negative reviews...these people clearly don't like Indian food. As a humongous foodie, food writer, lover of Indian food and local resident of Jamaica Plain, this is the…
Won't Go Back by rayvicky via Citysearch on 4/2/2011
We went for the first time and it will be the last time. In addition to painfully slow service, the food was terrible (the rice was musty), a loud fight broke out between some of the waitstaff culminating in an almost fist fight and…
Take out is great too! by gardma via Citysearch on 10/1/2010
I love Bukhara food, staff and atmosphere. I took my daughter there once and we ate, laughted (till we cried) and had a great time. I sometimes order out so that I can take my food home and pig out.
I've tried another Indian Cuisine…
Mediocre lately by Erin D via Insider Pages on 4/14/2010
Solid buffet offerings, and my first experience at this restaurant was phenomenal. Sadly, my past 2 dining experiences were mediocre at best. The food was not as flavorful as my first two experiences, and the normally fantastic Peshawari…
Bukhara is the jewel of Jamaica Plain! by romat via Citysearch on 12/7/2008
I highly recommend Bukhara. The food here is great, always fresh, always perfectly prepared, the portions are so big that there is always enough left for lunch and/or dinner the next day - and the price is great. Where can you get three…
Bukhara Bistro is GREAT by abbeytown via Citysearch on 12/7/2008
Recent transplant to Jamaica Plain and I just found the most darling indian bistro. Went with a few new friends on Wednesday evening and liked it so much I went back with my boyfriend last night. This food is soooooo good. I had curry…
My Review by Karmon via GrubHub on 9/13/2008
the food tasted fine, but the delivery was almost a half hour late and thus, the food was barely warm. I won't be ordering from here again.
PATHETIC!! by Rahul1831 via Citysearch on 7/14/2008
The worst restraunt I have ever been to in US, Utterly disappointed with the service and the food. We went around 2 hours before closing time of restraunt. They didnt have anything we wanted and all we got from the menu was just 2-4…
Go for the buffet by quinniepants via Citysearch on 9/28/2007
The buffet is the best deal around, so go during the afternoon on the weekend to take advantage of it. The food is superb, really delicious Indian food with the right balance of spices. If you go for a regular dinner here, you still get…
Poor Service, Mediocre Food by flights via Citysearch on 3/22/2007
I went to Bukhara last night since I had heard some good things about the place, but was sorely disappointed. I have never had such rude waitstaff anywhere. It took forever for the waiter to take our order, and the drinks showed up after…
Solid Indian spot by kidray via Citysearch on 12/20/2006
I like Bukhara, but I think it's a bit overrated in reality. The food is good no doubt, but you're paying for it and the ambience, in my view, isn't all that great. It's just ok. I know everything is expensive in Boston, but I find…
One of Jamaica Plain's most popular ethnic restaurants delivers Indian fare with style. by Contributor via Citysearch on 10/20/2006
In Short
Owned by the same folks who brought the Back Bay's Kashmir to culinary fame, Bukhara is similarly upscale. It occupies a beautiful gilded space that looks out on busy Centre Street in J.P.; there's dim lighting and soft,…
Good restaurant but... by tashpatell via Citysearch on 8/8/2006
Bukhara is the place to go if you are craving for Indian buffet. The food and service is pretty good and their prices are very reasonable. Its also a huge plus for them that there is a lot of parking at the back of the restaurant. The…
Indian Buffet by meredith4444 via Citysearch on 1/7/2006
This is JP's only Indian restaurant and is not as inexpensive as other Indian restaurants ( if you are willing to drive). The average dish is about 12 dollars. The food is pretty consistently good but not stellar. The portion sizes are…
Vegan friendly and yummy by veganbostondotcom via Citysearch on 12/24/2005
This place serves some of the best Indian food I've had in Boston, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan friendly options on the menu.
surprised by the negative reviews by dimajela via Citysearch on 3/10/2005
i have been enjoying Bukhara since it opened. the food is consistently good, and i enjoy the ambience (though i more often get take-out). i can't say i have ever been disappointed.
