The menu features modern Kazakh cuisine: kazy bowls, brain-and-horse-fat éclairs, a sealed horse-meat burger, horse-meat pizza, and tary cheesecake. The baked goods deserve special attention — fresh bread, baursaks (especially good with irimshik), and traditional desserts paired with signature teas like roasted-grain tary-chai or spruce-infused arshaga ystalg’an chai. For a deep dive into local flavors, the bar menu offers kumys, shalap, and shubat.
This restaurant masterfully balances a family-friendly vibes with DJ parties, a play area with cocktail hours, post-workout breakfasts, and hangover-curing ramen after raves.
From 9:00 to 16:00, breakfast reigns: shakshuka with feta, baked-milk syrniki, salmon omelets. The rest of the day (and night), the international hits take over: Caesar salads, club sandwiches, shrimp pasta, and machete steaks. If post-party cravings demand sushi (a common affliction among night owls), the Japanese menu runs from 18:00 to 6:00.
This Kazakh ethnocafé has already made its mark on the gastronomic maps of Tashkent, Moscow, and even Chicago. Tary — roasted millet, a heroic grain that sustained people through famine and drought — symbolically gives its name to the 24/7 Tary café, which often comes to the rescue, too. Like when you remember dinner past midnight or wake up before dawn craving a meal.
Behind the red curtains on Abylay Khan Street lies Teatralka — a bohemian restobar with live music nightly and VIP rooms for karaoke until sunrise.
When thoughts of Central Asian cuisine strike — especially post-midnight — Navat near TSUM answers the call. The golden classics are all here: fluffy pilaf, lamb manti, fried khoshan, samsa varieties, lagman, and tandyr dishes. Lighter options hide in the all-day breakfast section: syrniki with homemade jam, cottage-cheese blini, and the veggie-packed Baysky omelet. The artisanal tea bar completes the picture.
The décor evokes Samarkandi courtyards: carved partitions, carpets, ornate patterns. Intimate booths suit private chats; families flock to the kids’ zone; summer nights unfold on the spacious terrace.
Noodles keeps pace with the city’s rhythm: breakfasts in the morning, weekday lunch deals, live music and DJ sets on weekends.
Teplitsa is about warmth and familiar faces — where no one rushes, conversations linger, and stays stretch longer than planned. Regulars love it for different reasons: some swear by the breakfasts (10:00 to 16:00), others lunch with colleagues (12:00 to 16:00), parents bring kids for Sunday cooking classes (13:00), and night owls revel in the evening energy. We especially love the late hours, when two worlds collide: partygoers in glitter keep the afterparty alive, while others simply need a perfect steak (ten cuts from KazBeef), Hawaiian pizza, or grilled chicken to sleep soundly.
A 24/7 spot right by the Kazakhstan Hotel. The terrace overlooks a meditative fountain, foreign languages hum at nearby tables, and the menu blends Asian, Turkish, and European traditions. True to its name, noodles dominate orders — woks, ramen, pasta — but the extensive menu offers far more. Think meter-long kebabs, burgers smothered in melted cheese, and enoki mushroom fries.
D.O.M. — short for Deus Optimus Maximus (loosely, «First Among Gods») — is a bold, lavish Mediterranean import from Sochi, dripping with confidence.
Friday and Saturday nights bring Dinner Shows with music, dance, costumes, and fanfare. The menu matches the grandeur — seafood, Wagyu, truffles. Even late-night indulgence feels elegant: foie gras terrine with orange mostarda, linguine with Kamchatka crab, Burgundy snails, crab dogs on brioche. And if you’re up at dawn, breakfast starts at 6:00.
By day, Mildom Terrace hosts business lunches; by night, it becomes a prime fan zone. Sports matches screen in the ideal atmosphere: cold beer, garlicky snacks, steaks, and the kind of camaraderie that turns strangers into temporary allies. The 24/7 menu sticks to reliable classics — Caesar and Greek salads, tom yum and okroshka, pasta and pizza, grilled meats and fish. No experiments, just satisfaction.
