    Dastarkhan is one of the institutions of Almaty. Serving excellently prepared Kazakh and international dishes at reasonable prices, Dastarkhan is popular with locals and foreigners alike. I ate here many times whilst in Almaty. I think the food is exceptional!!!Yes even by Western Standards. The dining is lovely as well, and you can eat outside.
    Apparently there are 3 of them in Almaty. I only ate at the one.(The website below is in Russian).

    Gee, it was all really good! Steak with Mushrooms was gorgeous!

    My last meal in Almaty before departing was at Princess Turandot's. The place is kind of hard to find located behind the Auezov Drama Theatre and I only knew about it because my colleagues took me there.

    We sat on the patio and had a delicious feast of Chinese food. We also had Tsingtao beer to wash it all down. Across the street is the Circus, wished I could have gone there it looked like a large event. In the background you can see the towering snow-capped Tian Shan mountains, beautiful!

    The food is very good and the service was outstanding and it was all fairly inexpensive, strongly recommended.

    I had a Sesame Chicken dish and Tsingtao beer.

    The terrace at the Line Brew is the place to be for dining out in the cool Almaty twilight.

    The beer selection here is outstanding featuring Belgian beers.There was live music set in the middle of a sailing ship.

    The food was excellent and service outstanding...highly recommended!

    Near the Medeo Skating Rink is a nice restaurant and hotel. The rooms and restaurant is in jurts. ONe of the jurts is a small museum showing the interior of a traditional jurt and some dresses of the locals. The restaurant offers local dishes like horsemeat and manty (Pasta squares filled with meat). There is a special jurt for weddings. The toilets are nice and clean.

    We went to lunch at the American Bar & Grill. The restaurant is located the same building as the Alatau Cinema. Unfortunately, Italian food at this restaurant is not good. My co-workers had burgers which looked really good and they were pleased with their choices. I was stuck with what I ordered.

    The restaurant seemed like a good place to hang out and eat other items from the menu, I just would NOT recommend their Italian food.

    This place was great! As you enter you are greeted by Laurel and Hardy statues. The food was excellent and the service was fast.

    I had horse milk with over-easy eggs on top of tomatoes for breakfast. Horse milk is very nutricious if you can get past the bitterness and it also has an intoxicating after effect! I added an expresso for good measure.

    We went to Mad Murphy's Pub for lunch. We sat outside on the porch under an umbrella. I had a good cheese burger and fries. I had my first taste of Russian beer(PUVO) in the form of a tasty Baltica.

    I was told they have a jazz and rock band playing almost every Friday and Satuday night but we had missed out on that. They had other European cuisine and Holland and Irish beer on tap. There were pool tables inside as well.

    Zherujyk Restaurant: Belly Dancing & Genuine Kazakh Food!

    Feast your eyes on the girls

    For Kazakh food, song, and dance all in one, this restaurant is THE place to go. They have menus in English and have a wide assortment of dishes to choose from, both Kazakh and international cuisine. The night that I went, there was a show which included Kazakh songs played with traditional instruments, and beautiful dancers gracing the stage. The songs started out very traditional with their costumes and styles, but as the night progressed, electric guitars suddenly became part of the whole Kazakh scene, and the girls were doing belly dances! Get your Tenge out and ready!

    Most of the people in this place were Kazakh, and there were few Russians. Unfortunately, I couldn't take any pictures. My mistake was asking if it was OK to take pictures :P

    The show starts at 8pm, at least on Thursday nights!

    I had the Kara-Kyzyl Salad (Black-Red or simply, Olives & Tomotoes Salad), Camel Besbarmak (Camel Meat with flat, square-shaped noodles called Naryn), and Pakhlava for dessert. Incidentally, that was the first time I had camel meat, and it tasted like pork. Or maybe I pointed to the wrong thing... They had English menus though!
