Nice decor, interior, wine list. Ordered the schnitzel, however pretty standard and bit bitter unpleasant aftertaste, didn't go further.

great place to dine at Almaty
horse meat steak — definitely worth a try, top meal🐴

I really liked this place!
An excellent wine list, there is a choice of several types of dishes for the company, subdued, pleasant light, an open grill, the view of which only adds comfort.
Baked beetroot with pickled figs and baked pepper with feta, as well as Greek zadziki and eggplant with tahini were chosen as snacks. Accompanied by white wine Altyn Arba Chardonnay reserve.
The choice of hot was stopped on the shoulder of lamb, accompanied by the Argentine malbec Catena Zapata.
All of the above was cooked sooooo delicious! The portion of lamb is just great, and the meat itself turned out tender and juicy!
The only thing that upset me was the completely inattentive and unhurried service and the fact that a certain waiter is assigned to your table, which is sometimes very difficult to reach.
In general, I realized when I came to Almaty that I really love Abr+ holding. Now there is absolutely no need, as a guest of the city, to read long reviews and reviews, I just choose the desired cuisine from the restaurants of this chain. This usually works flawlessly) Thanks!

According to my friends, this is a cozy restaurant for romantic meetings, and having visited this restaurant, I fully share my friends' opinion. Very cozy, clean, the kitchen is open - the order is perfect. We were impressed by the service. The service is excellent. All the dishes on the menu are straight restaurant, original, each dish with its own exclusive idea. We ordered several dishes from different categories and none disappointed. Gourmets are here!!!

An excellent restaurant, made on the site of the former ice cream parlor "Ice cream" (it seems right), not a very extensive menu, but a good selection of delicious meat and poultry, and divine cocktails that reflect iconic places in Almaty, definitely worth a visit!
The receipt for such a place is within the norm

Oh!
One of the best restaurants in the city.
The selection of alcohol and dishes is beyond praise.
The atmosphere for lunch, dinner, inside, on the fly is wonderful. This is thanks to the music, the furniture and the guys who serve. By the way, all the waiters know the menu perfectly well and give good recommendations.
Definitely recommend it!

A wonderful place with a cozy and stylish atmosphere. In the warmer months, it's great to sit on their summer garden. The food is delicious and the staff is pleasant. We come here to have breakfast with our husband or girlfriend. The portions are good. Great desserts. I recommend trying the tortilla from the oven with beef ham, truffle cream and parmesan. I take Comfort with ham from the breakfasts. And for sweets, take cheesecakes and a bagel.

A beautiful, cozy place. The exterior is immediately impressive, everything is decorated for the New Year with taste. The service is excellent. Filet mignon and lamb are delicious. An open kitchen, the meat was cooked right in front of us. It is better to book a table in advance.

Awesome burger with truffle. And a cocktail of couscous. One of the best places in the city in terms of atmosphere, cuisine and music. It's nice to watch the staff at work - how they hang ducks in the captille, or mix their signature cocktails. The best restaurant in the country according to WhereToEat, what can I say. There was some kind of reward for cocktails, but that's not for sure. In short, it's worth going more often.

The restaurant needs to be booked, the prices are much higher than average, but the quality of the food, the serving and the combinations of flavors are on top. The food is served quickly. We were sitting outside (September)-it's cold. It's better inside the establishment-the interior is super there. We've been looking for a waiter for a long time to pay the bill. I'm applying a photo in the dark

I've been dreaming of getting to this iconic place for a long time.
We had a great time with a big group. I liked the cheeks very much! So is the bone marrow, but I'm embarrassed to talk about it with exclamation marks at the end of a sentence.
The hospitality is on top!

I hope I was just unlucky, but everything I ordered was either sugary, or floated in a bucket of oil or was too salty. For example, chicken pate and mulled wine are insanely sweet, just sugary. It is strange to eat sweet chicken pate, very fatty besides. Artichokes with mushrooms were, on the contrary, highly salted, to the point of bitterness. And the marrow bone, which is already fatty in itself, was poured with oil on top for some reason; the salad with buratta literally floated in oil. The shrimp salad is also very fatty, with chunks of swollen fatty bread (. Honestly, I don't understand why spoil dishes with excessive amounts of oil, over-salt or make them cloying 🤔
About the service: in the beginning it was fine, but then they forgot about the order, the dishes were not cleaned.

A new restaurant on the site of the legendary cafe "Ice". Ogonyok melted the ice, because the heart of this restaurant is the oven, in which many dishes are prepared. An excellent selection of wines by the glass, including sparkling wine positions. Clear, but at the same time stylish tastes, not strained presentation of dishes, very involved and caring staff. A great place for a dinner with a friend or a romantic outing. The terrace is just The Chronicles of Narnia.
The only advice is to change the blankets.

We went to have an informal chat with a client. After the national Kazakh cuisine in cool restaurants, I wanted to take a break from meat, eat something light and tasty. The client brought me here.
We were drinking ginger tea, and the client, from experience, asked us to make a double brew so that the ginger was felt. It turned out fine, I drank much more vigorously in Volgograd.
They served us dried horsemeat tonnato, a spread of hummus with eggplant, tortillas with it, and sweet potatoes with avocado for hot. It was a great light dinner for a good conversation. My client is an athlete, he rarely eats dinner, but he liked it too. I recommend it!

Good kitchen, convenient location. A cozy place, although the tables and chairs are too small. The waiters know the menu, perform their duties quickly and efficiently. It would be great if the minimum dress code was followed and subjects in tracksuits and sweatpants were simply not allowed in.

A great cozy place, ideal for romantic dates and intimate gatherings with a small company. Thoughtful menu, bright cocktails. A very original interior design with a rounded suite in the center and an open kitchen hidden behind it. The lentil soup is wonderful, the horsemeat is wonderful. The mulled wine was very welcome. Well-trained staff.

There are no complaints about the food, I recommend everything very tasty, But when booking they give only 2 hours then go from here, sit in a hurry to eat it's just absurd, 2 hours for food Karl, do in this case half an hour during this time you can eat everything

The kitchen is unusual, the presentation is designer, but very tasty. The hall is small, cozy, I didn't notice any VIP rooms, and in the warmer months there are tables outside.
In fact, this is one of the most stylish establishments in the city, where it is worth going, unless, of course, you are waiting for a classic ethnic cuisine

Great service, guys fire!
But what are the prices?!
The wine list is just amazing!
If you want wine, it's better to go to the Beast or to the Wine Shop in Mega.
It is more expensive in the Beast, but in the Wine Shop the author's cuisine and specialization in wines.
My friend and I ordered 3 snacks and 1 bottle of Australian Shiraz and Kazakhstani Arba on the New Year's menu, the bill for a second is 82,000.
For two!
I knew where I was going, but not by as much....

They came an hour before closing time, sat next to the open kitchen, the view is dubious, well, okay!this is the only negative!
The pizza on a thin dough is delicious, and I liked the desserts too! Especially the special dessert in the form of a tennis ball!
The service is good!💗

We came to the Light, asked for a table for two, we were offered a table on the summer terrace where there is a bar. When we left, the music was not playing loudly, we could communicate calmly. After a while, the music got louder and louder, you had to yell to communicate. It was also just not pleasant to sit with very loud music like in a club. I turned to the administrator and asked him to turn down the music because there was no one in this part of the summer house except us. As a result, the music was not turned down, nor was it allowed to move inside, even behind the bar inside, although there were places there. As a result, a ruined evening. I also note that when we were offered this table, we were not warned that very loud music would start in 10 minutes.

Everything is very tasty, especially the gently whipped baked pepper spread with feta was impressed, as well as the fact that there is no sunflower oil anywhere in the dishes. Good service, beautiful. It is a pity that there is no discount on the birthday, and the waiter promised dessert as a compliment from the institution, but this was eventually forgotten. It's not very customer-oriented, especially for a place of this level

Excellent cuisine. But there are many "Buts". The volume of portions, unlike other restaurants, is very small. Cocktails are 3-4 on a five-point scale, if you're lucky. Well, I didn't like the price-quality ratio. It's strange to leave a restaurant after paying a pretty decent amount and then go to another one to eat.

Delicious, no more. The price on the menu is indicated without VAT, as a result it is not cheap ...
From +: location, clean, delicious (but not wow)
Because: it's cramped (the tables are small and close to each other), small portions, the price tag is too high.

A restaurant in a good way with a recognizable Moscow atmosphere. The audience is pleasant. It's hot near the stove.

The best restaurant in Almaty.
I 100% agree with the Weretoeat rating, which gave it the first place in its list of restaurants.
Incredibly delicious food (almost everything I've tried, but I'll note the languid cheeks separately), stunning interior and the best service in the city!
The breakfasts here are also great, but if you choose, it's better to come here for lunch or dinner.
Cocktails are great too. My favorite is Nomad Collins. Be sure to try it!
