A pretentious, in a good sense of the word, institution that represents a modern view of Kazakh cuisine. Luxurious fish, cheese and meat cuts, in which you won't surprise anyone anymore, so there is, for example, camel smoked sausage. Among the salads, I was also impressed by one that replaced beetroot and, usually, goat cheese with a delicate mousse made from camel milk. The second course is an incomparable serving of sturgeon in clay (see photo). And of course, the decoration of the institution is the master of playing the dombra, I strongly advise you to listen to him.

The restaurant is wonderful! The food is delicious, the interior is beautiful, the waiters are professional and knowledgeable about the menu, the prices correspond to the level of the establishment. We wanted to try camel meat and were very satisfied. After Moscow, the prices were not shocking. I would even say quite reasonable prices. The portions are quite normal - we didn't leave hungry. This is not a family cafe, you should not go here with children. This place is more about business meetings, especially with foreigners. 5 stars definitely! I recommend you to visit, just keep in mind that it may be expensive for Astana, but it's definitely worth it and it's very tasty. 👍👍

I love it! Incredibly tasty, beautiful and refined. Every time I wonder how it is possible to rethink Kazakh cuisine and create such masterpieces. The interior is designed in the national style and you immediately plunge into the atmosphere. Artyom Kantsev is a master of his craft, I wish there were more such chefs in the kitchens.

We came to this restaurant at the invitation of friends from Astana. The luxurious interior with a national twist, live pleasant music create the atmosphere of an oriental fairy tale. The work of the waiters is impeccable - they arranged a food theater for us with a story about each dish. Prices for the bar and cuisine are higher than other popular restaurants in Astana, but privacy and attitude to guests are captivating. We had a pleasant evening at QUAZAQ, thank you 🙏

Gorgeous interior, national flavor. Live music. As a compliment, they treated me to a flatbread - the taste of childhood, I enjoyed every bite. The menu is not extensive, but it is quite interesting: dishes from horse meat, mutton, camel, you can order veal or fish. Interesting snacks. Unusual and delicious. I recommend the restaurant, I still have pleasant emotions from visiting.

I am writing from the point of view of a tourist. Another iconic restaurant that is a must-visit. The chic interiors and rich decoration seem to hint at the amount of the check, but strangely enough, you can eat and drink here quite on a budget (and not on a budget, too). The dishes are large and good. The kitchen did not surprise (like Krasnoyarsk), but left a pleasant impression. I really liked the staff (not an example of another iconic rotating place) - excellent knowledge of the menu without any peeping - without changing the graceful counter, the waiter will tell you everything about any dish and the composition and combinations and drinks. We were a big group, everyone appreciated it. We quickly accepted the order and served everything quite quickly, there was no feeling of "well, where are you already there?", despite the number of people. It's not a problem to make separate accounts. There's nothing to take off the star for. I will be in Astana - I will definitely come back.

I did not expect such a combination of national cuisine and sophistication. Everything is good in this restaurant - the interior, the atmosphere, the service, and the cuisine is a separate story. We chose several dishes, they were all great. The portions are not so large that you immediately lose interest in further serving. I especially remember the filet mignon type of horse meat. Something special! The maral language was also great. There was a slight hitch with the wine, but after several attempts we still found an acceptable option available. By the way, this is the problem of all the restaurants in Astana that I managed to visit.

That's cool! It's not a shame to bring your family and foreign guests together. The average check, however, cost 25-30 thousand without alcohol. I understand - portions, etc. However, portions need to be slightly increased. Presenting as a national cuisine, it should be understood that our ancestors ate healthily and with a healthy appetite. The pricing policy could also be revised. The booth in the photo is furnished too richly and therefore looks pretentious

A restaurant with a capital letter is exactly about this place. Expensive, tasty, classic style and it's all fixed by high prices. The status obliges. The food was very tasty, a lot of meat and portions were decent, the atmosphere was chic, live music, everything created the appropriate vibe. You can definitely bring your soulmate here for a special occasion

09.04.24 visit. The staff is friendly, very attentive to each table. 2 shubat soups, these Cossack horsemeat with truffle border, Shymkent mutton of 4 steppes, mors. All the dishes correspond to the photos on the website, the soup is delicious (even for a person who does not like dairy, it made an impression and positive emotions), the second dishes and the drink also command respect for the cook. The price tag is high compared to the nearest places, but this is a RESTAURANT, not a cafe, and worthy of visiting both tourists and locals, for those who appreciate hospitality, national dishes, combined with serving. Very positive emotions after the visit.

There is a service. The food is not very good, and even small portions. Plus, the prices are high. The next day, the teenager was poisoned. It seems that the ingredients in the dishes are not compatible with each other for the human body. I ask you to reconsider your approach, but it's a good idea, especially if you need to impress foreigners)

Dishes with soul, intricate, interesting presentation, high-quality ingredients. Very pleasant live music, well-designed interior. Really high Kazakh cuisine is for gourmets who enjoy both eyes and stomach. Sour cream mixed with honey to a flatbread is divine

We arrived at the restaurant as a family, after a city tour, at lunchtime. 1. Good location, with beautiful and stylish decoration inside. 2. Attentive and friendly staff. 3. The menu is not overblown, convenient (there are photos of dishes), for people with different preferences. Even if something is not clear, the cute waiter will explain everything. 4. Delicious complement from the chef. 5. Fast serving of drinks and dishes. 6. Based on the dishes we have chosen, there is a national flavor in the food, but using new technologies, with an unusual and beautiful presentation. 7. Great taste... the team obviously did their best, our taste buds sang with pleasure! The restaurant clearly draws on a Michelin star!!! I definitely recommend it for a visit! I wish you all good luck, peace and kindness!

This is a fusion of Kazakh cuisine with elements of haute cuisine, but I'll be honest with you. For 10 days, Astana has been the most unimpressive place so far. We definitely expected more. Of the advantages, the friendly and attentive staff, but the kitchen is far from high, just ordinary dishes in a reduced size. I do not mind the high price tag, but only when it is justified, unfortunately, it is not here. It's not enough to decorate a dish with micro greenery to be called haute cuisine and double the price tag)))

A good restaurant, the food is very tasty, the serving is beautiful) Ordered: - Smoked tongue of the Altai maral with babaganush and barley milk. - Terrine of baked vegetables with warm omyrtka fillet. - Young lamb loin with garden pea puree and Zhusan sauce. - Cherry sorbet with lime and coconut. The restaurant is 5 stars, but there are wishes: - do not take out hot dishes at the same time as cold ones, they also cool down. - stains on the tablecloth are, of course, not the level…
