Beautiful place, the restaurant itself is very pretty. Although, there are few pluses I can give. First of all, the food portions are HUGE. The sushi and rolls are much larger than we expected, and at a very good price. However, anything other than the sushi will be a downgrade. Their rice is old, hard and cold, and the rest of my food was half too hot, and half too cold. This gave me the impression that they prepare their food beforehand and just warm it up when it's ordered. Our food came out fast, we only waited for about 10 minutes! There was dirt and hair all over the floors underneath the tables. Overall, it's a great place for sushi and rolls for a very good price, but I wouldn't recommend ordering much else from here, as it'll be subpar. At least, my meal was.

Great place 👍👍👍 The cozy atmosphere, the cuisine is beyond praise!!! Tom yam soup is super! One note, it is better not to put limondras leaves in the soup before serving. There were too many of them. The waiters are excellent! All 5+

Samurai is our family cafe. We don't come here often, but we definitely come about it. The menu is very tasty and varied. I repeat once again: everything is very tasty. The prices are not more expensive than others, and it is in the very center of Almaty. Nice calm atmosphere. Friendly staff. But there is one "but". Hosts, the waiters need to learn a little not only friendliness, but also professionalism. They are a little short of the top five. I put 4.5 out of 5. But I still recommend it to those who appreciate good and delicious food.

This is the worst branch! A black spot on the reputation of the entire network. The behavior of employees towards people with disabilities is simply amazing. There are no ramps, they refused to give me a blanket or a pillow. The only way to get to the bathroom is up the stairs. And, of course, no one began to help. They literally forced a person with disabilities to humiliate himself by trying to go up to the bathroom. And I'm not talking about the terrible food at all. Instead of sushi, it's just rice porridge, one big mass with torn nori.
God forbid you never find out what it's like not to be able to climb the stairs properly while the staff of the institution giggles on the sidelines.

A cool Japanese restaurant. I want to note that it is at this address that there is almost always a lot on the tables, which naturally speaks about the quality of the kitchen staff, for which I thank them very much, they cook just super, it's not in every " Samurai Sushi ", Polite and responsive staff, well done guys, thank you very much for your work. I recommend visiting this restaurant.

We ordered cucumber rolls and a fish roll separately — they brought it on one plate and the cucumber roll was all rolled in fish caviar. The waiter replied, "Well, I'll do what, I didn't cook." Indifference and incompetence, did not please

Pros:

2. Ingredients: Shrimp, fish. We didn't save so much.
3. Price = quality. Two boxes of sushi arrived in 7k. We ate enough and couldn't move from the place🥴🤪

A triple portion of rice and 2 grams of seafood are placed in baked sushi. The rice is cold. The salmon is dry. I understand what is being done for the sake of large portions, but this is beyond good and evil. Japanese chefs do hara-kiri when they see such sushi

This place has deteriorated a lot in the last couple of years. There was only rice and mayonnaise in the baked rolls, neither fish nor shrimp were found. And before, there was a favorite place to sit and order home. Alas!

Delivery is more than 2.5 hours. Sometimes they are 3 hours late. There is a lot of rice and a minimum of fish in the rolls. The service is generally lame, how many people complain, but the cafe does not take measures to fix the problems.

Hello! We came with a colleague for lunch! The order has been waiting for a very long time. We didn't have time to eat, we decided to take with us what we didn't eat. The waitress was very negative and rude, when asked to put herself down, she clicked and threw the dishes on the table. The mood soured in an instant. The administrator was called, she apologized for such staff. The girl serving us, when she came out, muttered something not good in our direction. We are shocked🫣🫣🫣

Not only pizza, sushi, rolls, but also a varied menu.
Drinks, cappuccino is a separate love.
The service is excellent. The guys are smart, polite, friendly.
Frequent gatherings take place more on Dostyk, although Almagul is closer))
By the way, family holidays are also there.
I RECOMMEND IT FOR VISITING AND EATING FOOD!

I expected more. The staff is friendly, the service is fast. The food is pretty mediocre. Maybe I was unlucky. We ordered our own eel, a set of sakura rolls and lemonade Blues. The fish had a rather weak taste. The ratio of fish to rice was not proportional. Too much rice. They brought quite a lot of brandy and ginger. The lemonade was excellent, it refreshed the receptors perfectly. The toilet is small, there are only 2 cabins and they are shared. In general, it's not bad. But if you want to taste sushi right away, then there are better places

It's a great place. The best price-quality ratio for sushi. My special homage is "exotic maki". But in different restaurants, the sauce is decorated differently and this affects the taste. There is often a queue at the entrance.

Positive:
- Overall, a good kitchen. A good selection of dishes.
- Acceptable prices.
- Convenient location.
- There is a parking lot, albeit a small one.
Minuses:
- During rush hours, the waiters are busy, they confuse orders, the kitchen cooks for a long time and you feel all the delights of rush hour in full.
- It's noisy. There is no sense of comfort and tranquility.
- It's cool in winter. A girl can't just sit in a sweater. You definitely need to take cover.
- The interior is already tired.
- It's dark inside. And this is not a "subdued romantic light", but direct lighting that is tired of time and has lost its functional qualities.

We ordered home delivery. We wanted to have a delicious dinner and diversify the selection. We chose samurai sushi. It is difficult to call rolls, rice alone, fish tasteless, in a word, terrible. The shrimps are breaded, not tasty. Baked rolls, sour, the only dish, miso soup, it was delicious. Everything else is just terrible. The price and quality fully correspond to reality. A 2000 roll can't be delicious. That's why people go there. It's cheap, and in their opinion it's also delicious. Alas, we will not order more there
