“This was our first time visiting Kavsar Restaurant since they reopened for dining in. We had family visiting from Ohio, and decided to have dinner in Pittsburgh. Everyone was very happy with their meals! My family ordered beef Lagman, beef Manty and Prov, and love it! We had Ocroshka soup, carrot salad, vegetarian plov , and the kids had sweet crepes. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. We will definitely return to Kavsar soon!”

“I wish I took photos but was too busy eating. Yum. If you enjoy eastern European food you're in for a treat. We ordered for 3: Pitcher compote Carrot salad my fav! Bread (served hot from oven) with raspberry jam (tasted homemade). A bowl of cold soup - this is unusual but refreshing, flavors of yogurt, dill, cucumber with some potato and meat. Plaf - rice with cooked veg and chicken. This was my teen's favorite. Dumplings”

Olivier Salad

$14.00

Beef, potatoes, carrots, peas, pickles, and eggs with mayonnaise.

“Absolutely loved Kavsár! The food was incredibly flavorful, authentically prepared, and truly unforgettable. The cozy atmosphere paired with attentive service made the entire experience even more special. We especially enjoyed the Olivier Salad, fresh bread, Nuhot Shurak, and tea - each dish was outstanding. Honestly, I’d love to come back and try every item on the menu. Exceptional food all around!”
