I love places where there is a lot of space and panoramic windows, love at first sight. The dishes are delicious, the prices are adequate, the people work are friendly.
Changed:
I change the rating to 4 because of one waiter, who always has a funny face, serves as if he is doing a favor, spoils the impression a little, and every time I come he is like that. It's like from a movie about Doctor Strange, there was a character with the same facial expression (Wong), I also want to say to him, "come on, smile at Biensi"
I do not recommend this institution from the word at all.
Very rude staff (there is no administrator), the cashier does a favor in a rude way, to the edge *****. The food is the worst and does not match the menu! This is the worst place I've been for the first and last time.
It is better to visit any other institution, I am sure it will be much better there.
I will add: Believe me - you are only captivated by the interior...
There used to be a great place with delicious food, now it's not so tasty, although the waiters try very hard to please the customers. But the main thing is
such an institution has a kitchen. Some dishes are missing, although they are on the menu. It's bad that the barbecue set was removed
I really liked the dining room. I emphasize that this institution is marked as a dining room, but at the same time the comfort of a decent cafe. The prices are very pleasing. This is not the first time we have stayed in Almaty and we always go here for breakfast and dinner. On our first visit, we went around all the cafes in the area and it was the best. We are pleased with the prices, cleanliness, comfort, service, speed of delivery and the dishes themselves.
There was once a fly in the ointment-yesterday's dishes were served for breakfast, but given the constancy of the food there, this minus did not deserve the removal of the star. Therefore, my personal opinion is five stars!!! From now on, I will also visit this dining room.
I recommend it! During the week of our stay in Almaty, this is the only place after which we were satisfied with the food! And the service! And the price is adequate!
We wanted to drink tea quietly - but the range can be expanded.
The kitchen, After the first visit, vowed to go back there... The dumplings were served cold and watery...
We were invited twice more, the quality has not improved😄
Manti are wooden, khachapuri is overcooked.
Perhaps we were unlucky, during our visit the dining room worked without self-service, the menu selection was not great (the cook was resting), the hall was served by one waiter, who was quickly and professionally managed with visitors.
We went there for lunch. Bolts in the soup, mold on tomatoes in a fresh salad.
I'm afraid to assume that they put it in other dishes that are stewed, etc.
Dining room with waiter service. That is, such a hybrid. When you go into the dining room and a waiter comes up to you to take an order and then get your interest for it. The prices are definitely not Stalovian, and the portions are small. The food tastes different, apparently it depends on the cook. And the service is long. There are not enough waiters and sometimes you can't get enough of them.
In fact, the name indicates "cafe-dining room", but to call this wonderful institution a dining room will not turn the tongue. Cozy and stylish interior, large menu, food at the level of a decent restaurant. Very tasty.
Today we came in at 21.50, the waiter told us that they were already closing, although it was indicated that they were working until 23.00. They remained hungry, very unpleasant.
The cozy interior of the dining room resembles a restaurant, which attracts many students to spend time there. The menu range is wide, the quality is average, the waiters serve.
Delicious food, reasonable prices, good design. When paying in cash, the cashier gave change for 1000 tenge less, paying with a card there were no such situations
The place is very pleasant, but there is a slight disadvantage: the hall is burning and the smell is due to the open kitchen.

I didn't like it, I didn't want to write, but when the spaghetti arrived... I changed my mind. I will not describe everything I have experienced) special attention is spaghetti "carbonara" culinary sadism of some kind, I do not recommend this institution from the word at all.
The kitchen is not bad. The prices are reasonable, but everything is patched up, furniture needs to be repaired and replaced, the menu is tattered. They take Rakhmet, cook it quickly. The staff is normal.
Delicious, inexpensive, beautiful interior and exterior.
BUT! there are constantly not enough waiters, neither for lunch nor for dinner. Until you start shouting at the waiters, no one will come. I often observed that the waiters just stand and chat, not paying attention to the customers.
There is also a problem with ventilation. Clothes smell like food for a long time after visiting.
What can I say, I ordered a tom yam today. Just a couple of pieces of chicken -and then small and half-frozen. They gave rice like a stone (I didn't even try it.) Mojito.... omg, just 7up with ice. It is better to just order black tea or Cola... Solyanka is fat, if you do not like olives, it is better not to order. Because there are a lot of them, and finely chopped ones.
Everything is perfect except the service. You have to wait for 10-15 minutes until the waiter comes to you. This minus is very upsetting, because sometimes you are so hungry and you want to eat and you wait for 30-40 minutes.
