About Us.

Dervish is inspired by the food traditions
of Central Asia and the Silk Road.

We prepare familiar dishes using plant-based ingredients while staying true to the flavours
and spirit of the region.

Our kitchen is entirely vegan and free from meat, dairy, eggs, onion, and garlic. We believe that good food can be both nourishing and full of flavour
without feeling heavy.

Welcome to Dervish and enjoy
a different taste of Central Asia.

Dervish is a family-run restaurant, and our menu reflects the way we cook and eat at home. Over the years, more and more members of our family have embraced a plant-based lifestyle, and creating vegan food became a natural extension of our values and traditions. Our goal is not to imitate meat-based dishes, but to celebrate the abundance of vegetables, legumes, grains, nuts, herbs and spices. Drawing inspiration from the culinary traditions of Central Asia and the Silk Road, we create dishes that are nourishing, satisfying and full of flavour.

Our kitchen is also inspired by the principles of sattvic cuisine, a traditional approach to food rooted in Ayurveda. In practice, this means that we do not use meat, fish, dairy products, eggs, onion, garlic, mushrooms or alcohol. While not all of our guests follow a sattvic lifestyle, many appreciate the lightness, balance and distinctive character that this way of cooking brings to our food. If you would like to learn more about sattvic cuisine and the philosophy behind it, you can find additional information on our website.

Feel the Central Asia

Dervish's oriental zone

In earlier times, long before tables and chairs came into use, people used to comfortably sit down on the ground and eat their meals. This tradition is still practiced in many parts of Central Asia, especially in Uzbekistan.

Sitting down on the floor, with crossed legs has many benefits for one's health, as it aids indigestion, Increases blood circulation, Improves posture, relaxes the mind and body.

Not only sitting down has a lot of immediate health benefits, it aids in many psychological and emotional factors too. Sitting down to eat our food makes us humbler and more grounded. It also connects the family together.

We invite you to dine in Dervish's traditional oriental zone with low tables and seat cushions with your family, friends or loved ones.

"Mega! I haven't eaten vegan so well in a long time. I was absolutely surprised by the food, the ambience and the friendly service. Definitely worth a visit. Thank you for this enrichment."
