A store I'll never go to again! Four kebabs were ordered, along with a skewer of mushrooms, a flat bread and a bottle of coke. we only got four skewers of barbecue, did not get naan and mushrooms, we asked for a long time after waiting, they also did not serve food, then the clerk took the surveillance video to say that we ate five skewers, but the fact is that the mushroom they think in the surveillance is actually not finished eating grilled salmon, and finally no one to solve the matter, there is no remedy, too disappointing a restaurant, Worst meal ever in Almaty! so bad!!!!!!

The best barbecue in Almaty, every year when I visit the city, I have been here for 5 years, the best barbecue, the quality does not deteriorate, the prices are very reasonable, there are always a lot of people, not only I appreciated this place. To all the guests and residents of the city, I definitely recommend a simple Place, not fashionable, where people come to eat delicious food, drink beer and sit in the company of friends.

The best place in all of Almaty! I came 3 years ago on the advice of a friend, and now every time I come to Almaty, I always go here for lunch. Very cheap, but very tasty. So many types of barbecue, fresh herbs, delicious tea. For the first time I tried cow's stomach, khan kebab, lamb saddle. My favorite is lamb heart, dumpling soup and sliced vegetables. The service is fast, the building is atmospheric. I recommend it!

A very cozy place, the kitchen is very tasty, kebabs are generally great, a small minus is that it is stuffy on the top floor, the air conditioners do not work and the windows do not open, this is a small minus, and the kitchen and interior are very cool, even the toilet in the form of a ship, everything is for convenience and prices are affordable, not overpriced, it is especially good to come there when It's raining outside, sitting in comfort and wiping out the windows is generally very romantic

An interesting cafe, an unusual interior and an original menu. There is a choice for every taste and purse)))
We tried shurpa, khachapuri kebab, lamb kebab. Did you like the balance and harmony of flavors in the soup, the delicate cheese (or the mashed seasoned cottage cheese?) to Khachapuri! The cook knows how to work with spices. We highly recommend this place, come and enjoy the delicious cuisine of Kazakhstan))
We would like to wish the cafe prosperity and more grateful guests! "Greater happiness is to give" (The Bible, Acts 20, Chapter 35) and YOU fully fulfill this principle;))

A wonderful barbecue. Good atmosphere. Operational service. Prices for the Southern Capital are completely normal. By the way, the prices of good alcohol are not raised, above human greed, unlike many establishments in Almaty.

It wasn't bad until January 30th of this year, when I decided to celebrate Dr. A very bad organization for a team, even a small one ((( I went in advance and discussed reserving 2 tables, called on the day of the event, confirmed the evening, as a result - 1 small table for 10 people ... dirty dishes were hastily removed from the other table. The kebabs were brought already removed from the skewers, cold, the feeling that they were heated, also on one dish (for 2 tables!). The waiter could not specify the number of chopsticks, he pointed to two less ((then he got better, after my clarifications ... A can of beer was placed in a mug, from which it was supposed to drink further ... in general, you can walk, but you can eat cleanly, 2-4 people each, the institution is not for events. The check miraculously did not fall into my hands, I realized it already at home.

The place with the most delicious barbecue in the area, which is located next to the bazaar, everyone knows where it is delicious, so brothers from America are sitting next to the left and brothers from Europe on the right, and already opposite Agashki Almaty)))😂😂😂

Delicious barbecue. No, it's not like that.… A VERY TASTY BARBECUE.
We spent not a single evening with family and relatives. The prices are great, the portions are large.
The staff lets us down a little with the service, but it's the little things when everything is brought and we enjoy a delicious dinner.

The kebab is delicious, like everything else.
The place is large, there are a lot of people, the service is not perfect - the dishes are served a little haphazardly. But in terms of price/quality ratio, this place is very good.

It's not a bad place to sit, drink a beer, eat a barbecue, it's a little noisy, but in general it's not bad, the service is normal, the price tag is not bad, or rather adequate! You can have a good time.

A wonderful cafe. I went there all the time and even brought my friends from abroad. They also fell in love with this place. The barbecue there, in my opinion, is the best in the city! The menu is extensive, all the dishes are delicious. The staff is helpful and friendly. I recommend this cafe to everyone!

One of the good places where delicious kebabs are prepared in the city. The location is certainly not the most top-end, but this is an area of such establishments. You may not be lucky with your neighbors either, but sometimes eating kebabs is a great option.

Previously, shish kebab was much tastier, now prices have been raised, and the quality has decreased. The service is terrible, waiting for the waiter is a whole problem, although there are call buttons everywhere on the tables. Any order has to wait a very long time, and a barbecue is generally an eternity, 30 - 40 minutes. By the time the barbecue is brought, you'll have eaten the whole tortilla, and the salad, and you'll get drunk on beer. Then the barbecue already disappears the desire to eat. Previously, they often ordered takeaway, but when the quality of the kebab has decreased, then it makes no sense to order takeaway for such a price.

We were there many times, we need to work on the service, we came one day at lunch, we waited for the waitress for a long time while she was moving tables in the hall, she was talking now now, another time it was in the evening, the waiter lay down on a bench at the next empty table with headphones and waited until we started to leave, when they called by themselves I did not hear I had to approach However, there were not very many people anymore

The barbecue is delicious, the set lunch is delicious. The price is average. I like everything except the service. Very slowly. You wait 40 minutes for the order. And you have to eat quickly because lunch time is already running out.

I am changing the review, it was previously 5 stars.
Gone bad !
came here on 09.23.2024
The meat is terrible , the mutton is old with a strong smell and falls apart into minced meat and not meat
The liver in the shell was also with a very strong smell of chicken.
the heart of the kebab is very tough.
fried tripe with onion is very strongly overcooked, not salty, and with a very strong smell...
I rarely write negative reviews, but I deserve it
What the hell happened to you???

We go to Smile only because of the kebabs, I recommend all kinds of kebabs - except mutton, mutton is not tasty here. Two times in a row we got on not tasty mutton. And the rest of the kebabs are very tasty, especially the entrecote. According to salads, they are very small, they taste normal. I DO NOT RECOMMEND BEER, their beer is diluted, after drinking it, the head hurts a lot. The institution itself is an anthill. The place is very crowded and very noisy. The institution itself is made of metalwork. There is one shared bathroom, both men and women go there for whatever.
I recommend only kebabs, except mutton! There are a lot of people on weekends and holidays, security guards let customers in on a first-come, first-served basis. Table reservations from 10 people.

One of the best places to eat kebabs, and the rest of the dishes are not bad.
The prices are affordable, the only thing if there are a lot of visitors is to wait longer when your order is brought.
And you can also drink normally, I mean alcohol.
Sometimes kebabs change, that's when there are incidents in the form of undercooked meat. But this is very rare. And mostly only the positive aspects.
I can't help but say about the lunches - delicious and inexpensive. I recommend you to visit

Not a bad place. It's spacious. The prices are good. But, the staff is rude and does not care at all about the customer coming again...We are waiting for a long time for service, we are waiting for an order. There are not enough waiters, they do not have time.
The food is delicious, but often over-salted and overcooked, in particular kebabs. Cooks obviously do not worry about the consequences, for example, increased pressure from excess salt ...
By the way, we live nearby and smoke often "flies" into our apartments. I have to close up...

One of the most iconic places in the city. The quality of the barbecue is at a very high level. Here you can have a delicious meal at lunch, at dinner, and you can also celebrate any Holiday that comes to your mind. The fairest price for a barbecue, in my opinion, is only here. However, recently I noticed that several positions of beef kebab are missing. A wide variety of alcoholic and other beverages. There is no children's room, so if you are going to visit this institution with children, then prepare for the fact that they will have nowhere to play.

I like everything, everything is delicious, one thing, but before when you order a barbecue with yourself, they were hot on foil, but now they are just in disposable dishes and cooled down, it seems as if the leftovers were put.

The barbecue is bad.
Mutton is tough, burnt.
The beef is surprisingly soft, but salty, also slightly burnt.
The entrees and salads seem to be good.
The prices are affordable, but it would be better to raise them and the quality of the food is directly proportional too.

The best meat is here! It's always delicious, I love it. the food is always fresh, the meat is tender and juicy. Khychiny is the dump of everything! I don't want to go anywhere else after this place. The service is of course more often harsh, but not critical

Delicious and a lot . The prices are very encouraging . The price-quality-quantity ratio is at an altitude. The biggest sticks of shish kebab, if not in the world, then in the city for sure (for this money), and very tasty. From Monday to Friday, a delicious lunch , there is not much choice , the standard bowl is tastier than sorpa , at the bottom there is a large bone with meat. And a choice of a stick of shish kebab, chicken lamb, etc. plus a lapashka and compote. All this for 1,500- 1,700 tenge, depending on which barbecue you choose. For this price, you can only eat yesterday's lagman without meat or pilaf in the city . I recommend this place to visit . P.S. There are a lot of people, there are often no places. I did not notice any disadvantages, only that the staff sometimes does not serve for a long time. And I think that's because there are a lot of visitors

The kebab has gone bad, it used to be delicious. Now they are bringing cold and not at all tasty. Service is a separate topic, they serve for a very long time, although there are few customers in the hall. I'm not going to Smile anymore, I was a regular customer.

The place doesn't seem to be bad, and the food justifies the cost, but the staff, the service , and most importantly the waiting time.
I agree , when the time exceeds 50 minutes of waiting during rush hour , but also in a half - empty hall , they carried hychines , not shish kebabs , hychines and dumplings for an hour .
