Zakuro

Sumptuous food, decor with dancing

My friends and I learned from experience that you go with an appetite and clothes you can dance in when you visit this West Asian restaurant. There is a reason they call their course menu "tabekirenai" rather than "tabehodai", and you're likely to get invited to shake your booty. For a very reasonable price, you get plied with generous amounts of delicious nan, curry, soup, salad, and sweets. The menu features dishes from Iran, Uzbekistan, and Turkey. The entertainment is another surprising experience at Zakuro. Both belly dance and Uzbekistan style dance is performed for diners. When my friends and I enjoyed a birthday party there, we got pulled off our floor cushions and drawn into the dancing. The staff and dancers are charming and friendly. The restaurant also serves as a market for glass lamps and grocery items imported from the Middle East.
