Delving into the heart of Central Asia through its flavors, Kazakh national cuisine offers an extraordinary culinary adventure that is both rich in tradition and delightfully satisfying. The star of the table is undoubtedly 'beshbarmak', a sumptuous dish of tender boiled meat served over homemade pasta, symbolizing warmth and generosity. Accompanied by 'kumis', a refreshing fermented mare's milk, the meal takes on a festive note. The robust 'shashlik', marinated and grilled meat, fills the air with irresistible aromas, promising a taste that is both juicy and perfectly charred. Each meal is an homage to the nomadic heritage, where the simplicity of ingredients meets the complexity of flavors, creating a dining experience that is genuinely heartwarming and enriching. Truly, Kazakh cuisine is a treasure trove of undiscovered flavors, waiting to captivate the palates of food lovers around the world.

The most beautiful restaurant I've been to in Almaty! The Kazakh-only dishes were the most savory I've had in the three months I've been in Kazakhstan. The fine art and traditional decor made the atmosphere feel elegant, yet welcoming. Excellent wait service and decently priced menu.

Nice atmosphere. Food could have been tastier and a wider choice. Simplicity in basics will add solidity. Food must be served at least warm..

Traditional food, I'm not particularly comfortable with. But the environment and service is good, the price is a bit high

It's a very nice place. Very stylish. Waiters in national clothes. The staff works flawlessly. Everyone is very friendly, they know the menu by heart and are ready to tell you about each dish, as well as to suggest and help you choose. The menu consists mainly of national cuisine. Everything is very tasty. After a hearty dinner, they offered surprisingly delicious tea. We will definitely visit you on our next trip to Kazakhstan.

A very beautiful and authentic restaurant, almost a museum. The interior, dishes, attentive staff - everything is national. National cuisine is served, everything is insanely delicious. You can book a table in the main hall on the 1st floor, as well as on the balcony and in separate spacious rooms. Dinner for two cost us 17 thousand tenge (3400 rubles). You will be in Almaty, come in, you will not regret it.

The best of the national restaurants that I visited in Kazakhstan. Everything is beautiful and with a story, but also super tasty. Top service. The food is top. Top entourage. National live music top. There is even a museum, you should definitely ask for a guided tour of the restaurant. I recommend everyone to immerse themselves in a real ethno-luxury. Book in advance, laziness on the day is almost always a full boarding.

Delicious, talented. Traditional food turned into art. The staff is great. The receptionist, the waiter- everyone was not just with a soul, but with interest and spark and desire! They tell, explain, and show not the text from the menu, but the story and the process. The receptionist showed them and told them about their costumes and the items in the windows. In general, the restaurant is a museum. There is bread and circuses. Yes, it's not cheap, but it's worth the money.

The best restaurant in Almaty! You should definitely take a bread basket to the table, it is very tasty, especially baursaks and creamy sauce for them. All the meat dishes are excellent. The waiters wear national clothes, and in the evenings from 20:00 they hold a concert of national music. It is very important to book a table in advance, there may not be any available ones. I really liked everything we took

It is worth highlighting the interior, very tasty food and the uniform of the waiters, which supports the overall atmosphere. I liked the dish Bal Kuerdak. The portion is small, but quite satisfying. The only thing I didn't like was that you can't order bread, it only comes as a dessert (with honey, vegetable and butter). That is, you have to pay extra for what comes in the "kit". The prices are high. The service fee is 15%. Moreover, the cost of the dishes looks like the payment for the service is already included in them. I did not underestimate the rating for this, because the restaurant has more advantages.

Live music from 20.00-22.00. Cozy, in the national style, there is a VIPKA, a variety of food, but I have comments and suggestions to the chefs, on the technology of making our national dishes, for serving them in exquisite taste, the staff is 100 points.

Hello. The Sandyk restaurant is not just a business card of the city of Almaty, it is a business card of the whole of Kazakhstan. I am not Kazakh, but I am proud to be Kazakh. And visiting this restaurant has only strengthened faith in the great nation of our people. Nurkeldy's guide conducted an excursion in the restaurant, introducing the subjects of everyday life of the Kazakh people. How they managed to collect such works of art in a restaurant is beyond comprehension. After that, we were treated to national dishes and introduced to the history of beshbarmak. The taste of the dishes is simply delicious. In the restaurant, I experienced not only the enjoyment of taste, but also aesthetic and spiritual enjoyment. I recommend everyone to visit this wonderful place.

A restaurant with delicious cuisine, an interesting interior with an authentic flavor, a strange staff who kindly introduced you to the nuances of national cuisine and traditions of the Kazakh people. For a restaurant of this level, the price tag for the kitchen can be marked as average.

They left 26,000 and never regretted it. It's very atmospheric. Nice. The music in the background does not interfere, but only creates comfort. People don't just come. Everything is clean and elite. The dishes deserve special attention. The quality of the dishes is excellent.

A great, atmospheric place to taste truly national cuisine. When serving the dish, the waiter tells the background story about it. The dishes are large enough and very tasty. The price is probably one of the disadvantages, but this is a restaurant level.

This is one of the best restaurants of national cuisine! The design of the restaurant is made in a traditional national style, everything is done with taste without pathos and at the same time very stylish! Getting into the restaurant feels like you are transported back 100-150 years ago, the atmosphere is also conveyed by the staff dressed in simple national clothes of that time. The cuisine is beyond praise, Beshparmak is simply amazing, the dough is thin, not boiled, elastic and at the same time very tender! Very caring staff who will prompt you with a choice of dishes and bring everything promptly! An exemplary restaurant of national cuisine, where our guests from near and far abroad should be taken! There are no alcoholic beverages and coffee in the restaurant :), the prices are also pleasantly surprising, the average check per person is $ 20~$25! I will definitely come and bring all my foreign guests!

Just a must to visit in Almaty. In the national style. The dishes are delicious. The waiters give the necessary comments when choosing. And they also tell about the history of the dishes. Very interesting. The toilet is clean. There is a children's room, spacious with a transparent wall. There are many exhibits around the hall, about which they will also arrange a tour. The staff is very friendly. It's a pity we didn't catch live music.

The restaurant is very cozy. The warm welcome of Virgos immediately lifted my spirits. Kazakh national values are preserved here, and the taste of the dishes is indescribable – the meat melts in your mouth and you feel the pleasure of real traditional cuisine. Old Kazakh folk songs touched the heart and gave a special atmosphere. It is worth noting that the main thing is not to overdo it. Thank you for respecting and preserving the national culture!😍🌼✨

My huge thanks to the restaurant, for the best service 👌this is the best restaurant in Almaty!!! The level of service is European, which is manifested in every detail of the interior, the serving, the behavior of the staff. The interior is stylish, you can sit together or celebrate a family celebration. Moreover, there is enough space not to interfere with each other.
The staff is very helpful. Our words of gratitude to the waiter Miras, who told us everything about the dishes, conducted a tour and told us very interestingly about all the details of the restaurant, paintings, chests and antiques.
This is not just a restaurant, but a whole museum!!! A place of warmth, luxury and light. The music, the setting, the choice of dishes are excellent. The best place to relax and have delicious treats!

We'll be coming in
