Staff 7/10 - Not a professional as should have been especially for the service charges they charge in overall. Always most staff are different. That's probably the management has an issue with hiring and firing the staff. This usually happens when you hire cheap or incompetent staff. Also, that shows that they lack a good HR person.
Atmosphere 10/10 - The view is amazing with facing to the artificial lake and fountain with a beautiful huge garden across. Very nice place throughout the March, April and mid May. Summer evenings and whole September and October
Waiting time - 9/10 In overall, almost excellent
Meal 6/10 Could and should have been a lot better in quality and taste wise. It seems they use cheap products and the price they charge for it doesn't match the quality. Also, it feels like their chefs are not as good as they should be. Their meal prices well above for the quality of the meals.
Interior 8/10 - I always sat in outside as that is ideal of me liking that place. However, there are not much of interior in outside but they could improve their outside sitting area for wet weather conditions
Beverages 6/10 I had only tea. As it is a Turkish restaurant they should be famous for their Turkish tea. However, the taste wasn't like a Turkish tea then ordered tea with a lemon but you can see that they just put the bit of a lemon chunk in the tea pot and it doesn't work like that. When you prepare and deliver the tea. You should do it from your heart as you should do the same approach when you cook. When you make a tea with a lemon. You should squeze at least a half a lemon in the pot. Then you cut out the pulp of that half a lemon and put it in the pot before you serve it. If you boile it like that for a two minutes before you serve. It will be just perfect lemon tea.
Dishes 7/10 - If you mean the plates, bowls, cups, pots, serviette, condiment and etc then like most restaurants in Tashkent they use way to much of them and same time they may lack in some of them. The best thing is to do is to look at the size of your tables then use only needful dishes for the meal and beverages you are going to serve
In overall I rate that place 7/10 as there a lot need to improve. They need to improve mainly in the quality of food and beverages if they want to keep up to the price they are charging for. Their main and huge win is that they have a very beautiful view and that they don't have a proper or better competitor near by them or in that area
A cool cafe with Turkish cuisine. All the staff are very friendly. The administrator puts his soul into it and helps to serve visitors. The food is top-notch, the service is fast, the food is all fresh.
The nature is just super, although there are a lot of people, it does not feel like the park territory is huge!!!! Fountains, the music selection is good, the children also really like walking with their bicycles, roller skates and a scooter, I note even in the ecopark they forbid with their scooter, the picnic area, the theater square made a musical fountain, the staff are very kind!
On Yandex, it says that it opens at 10, in fact at 11 (I made a correction suggestion), when we arrived at 11, they told us that they would open in 30 minutes. We visited other restaurants of this chain, everything was delicious and opened on time. I don't know how they cook here, they went to another place.
Pros: it is located in a park where it is difficult to find something from cafes, restaurants and this institution functions there, it pleases.
Cons: the staff from chefs to waiters seem inexperienced.
The waiters do not know the menu and the composition of the dishes.
And the chefs, in turn, cook as unprofessionally as possible.
You open the menu based on the description and photo, you order a dish, but they bring some kind of game by sight, smell. You call the waiter, refuse the dish, and the cook runs over the waiter with a gesture, saying that he did not sell the dish.
This evening we felt sorry for the waiter because he was depressed, we decided to take the dish with us, which we refused.
Having tried it at home with the whole family, we were surprised that it was not so delicious to cook, you need to try to combine the products. I don't remember what the dish was called, but it should have looked like a vegetable stew with meat.
The meat was smelly, the kefir or suzma sauce was sour as if, the tomato sauce was overcooked, the potatoes in the form of thin chips were out of place. And the vegetables as in the photo from the menu were not in the dish.
Bottom line: you can go to an institution for coffee and dessert, but if you are hungry, you will not be able to eat delicious food there.
When you enter, a simple entourage opens up. The first feeling is well, here we are now eating inexpensively. Then, when you open the menu, you can see Turkish cuisine with Tashkent prices of Turkish cuisine. There is an opportunity to eat outside by the water with the smell of the sea, reminiscent of Alacati in Turkey. As for the taste, in my opinion Efendi is very much inferior.
The service is not very good. A lot of young waiters don't really know the menu. They do not understand Russian well and without saying so, they continue to serve. We ordered one dish, brought another, which immediately said that we would not pay for it because we did not order it and immediately gave it back. In the end, they added it to the bill anyway) the menu is wildly inconvenient, I don't think Turks are sitting there and eating 24/7. The composition of the dish is not specified, the names are not written in Turkish, even in Uzbek.. prices are too high, to taste by 3. Tables on the streets are all scuffed , fans blow over their heads into the void, why is unclear.. plus , it 's pretty dark in the evening , you can 't really see what they brought .
The location is of course cool, it is located near the water, delicious Turkish cuisine, especially desserts. Kind, polite staff. Of course the service wants the best
A cool restaurant, delicious food, super service, the boys are very nimble and polite, beautiful view from the terrace. Comfortable chairs and armchairs
A good place, since it is located on the territory of the park, there is no Parking, you need to go from the road, food and prices are 4 out of 5. Minus the loud music of the park and there are often no empty seats.
Very tasty dishes. The price is average. The order arrived quickly. The service is good. The variety of dishes is very large. I recommend this restaurant. The dishes are clean.
Terrible service! We went to dinner with our family and sat for 10 minutes, the waiters walked by! No one came up! When they got up and started to leave, they just pushed the chairs behind us!
