Our Story
Welcome to Medina
Medina is named after the old walled "medina" — the heart of an Eastern city where traders from many lands met to share food and stories. Our restaurant brings together three countries of the Silk Road: Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Turkey. Whether it's a family dinner, a celebration or lunch with friends, we create a warm atmosphere and an unforgettable taste experience.
