We were in a cafe on 06/21/2026. They said it would take 10-15 minutes to wait for the order, but in fact they waited 30 minutes. We waited in vain, it was so not tasty. 1. Macaroni and cheese - the pasta itself is the cheapest boiled, lightly sprinkled with a small pinch of cheap cheese on top. As my daughter said, pasta tastes better in their school cafeteria. 2. The dumplings with potatoes were delicious, but they put very little sour cream and it was suspiciously sour. 3. Chinese chicken with rice. There's a lot of oil in both chicken and rice for some reason. The chicken pieces themselves are covered with black dots like burnt breadcrumbs or reusable butter. 4. Teapot with black tea - light yellow tea without taste. We drove around the coast, ate in different places and this is the worst experience!

We came from the Caucasus ourselves, it is clear that we are used to the delicious and varied cuisine, I certainly recommend it from a fisherman! Absolutely everything is delicious! The waiter boy is above all praise! Despite the fact that they said the average serving time was 15-30 minutes , the dishes were served within 15 minutes . Lagman, Manti is sooo delicious. And most importantly, it 's very clean . Prices are reasonable

Of all the places in the city, the best place so far, the manti is super, the trout steak is too (we ate at the barbecue bar, more expensive and much worse) the eggplant salad will do (it will do for 300) We're thinking of going back for the manta rays. The prices are reasonable and the interior is cute (we were sitting inside the establishment)

We visited this cafe today, the atmosphere is pleasant, there is live music. That's where the advantages end, we ordered dishes (macaroni and cheese, dumplings with potatoes and chicken in Chinese). The waitress told us to wait 15 minutes, we waited more than that time, and soon she came over again and said that we would have to wait the same amount. I understand you can tinker with chicken, BUT dragging around WITH PASTA AND DUMPLINGS for 30 minutes is outrageous. The pasta was super cheap (everything was clear from the first bite), the same story with cheese, and there was a lot of water left on the plate. The dumplings from our order were even more or less. The chicken was greasy, the products were floating in oil. We will never come here again, and I don't advise you either! 🙎‍♀️

They said it was a good place, but in fact it was completely depraved and lacked service. We sat down right in front of the nose of the cops.. until they called twice and came up. We ordered, we wait for 30 minutes, they bring the MNC fish, they say that there is no second course, they gave us a menu, they came in another 10 minutes. They already brought everything to me, and I ate it, but they didn't bring anything to my girlfriend. As a result, they brought her food for an hour and a half. They seemed to have eaten everything fine and didn't want to write a review... but this disease in such establishments brings a bill.. This is the last straw. We waited 25 minutes for the bill, and then only after we got up and told the 4th waiter that we were leaving without paying, we were caught with the bill at the exit.

The food is 50/50, the service is terrible, the food was waited for a long time, no attention was paid to us for a long time. The soups arrived cold, and my dish was completely mixed up. You can understand that we are all human beings, but poisoning your friend in this institution was the last straw. Unfortunately, 1 star

We were at the fisherman's cafe on July 28, went in for dinner and had breakfast the next day. We ordered fish on a brazier with vegetables, fish soup, cutlets, bosolagman and more. The food is delicious 👍💯 But the wait for an order, especially salads, is sooo long. Pancakes for breakfast were served for 30 minutes. There is a full boarding in the evenings, so the wait for the order will also be long. The atmosphere is cozy. The staff is polite.

Only a flatbread can be positively evaluated.Otherwise, it's disgusting. Dirty tables, dishes. One thing can be said about the food - tasteless, below the canteen level. Dry omelet, with sausage of extremely low quality. They did not believe the reviews, in vain...

I really liked the lamb and beef kebab! It just melts in your mouth! We drove by , decided to stop for lunch - we didn 't regret it ! It was quickly cooked . The only thing I didn 't like was the smell , probably from the charcoal on which the barbecue is being fried . This smell permeates the hall , perhaps we weren 't sitting in the wrong place . But it didn 't spoil the impression! I really want to come back!

The cafe was very good when it first opened, about 10 years ago. I had to wait for a place to be available. Now they have expanded, but the kitchen has become much worse! Nice interior. There are a lot of people in this season. It is no better than others, and the prices are higher. I know several small cafes of an unpresentable appearance, but with a kitchen much tastier than the fisherman's

A disgusting place, beshbarmak was brought, a fly was floating in the broth, did you notice only when you ate half of it, the administrator came, says to remove the fly? Lamb with sauce is coming, the waitress came, says there is no sauce, I say, give another one, as a result, they included it separately in the bill)))) to put it mildly, I do not recommend it.

One star for Ice T and Ayran, everything else was bad! Dumplings and meatballs made of minced meat of the lowest level, with veins and coarse grinding. Moreover, no one reacted to the claim and the fact that practically nothing was eaten, they just gave the bill and took the money. The cafe is packed, apparently by those who do not know that it has already deteriorated very much. There is also a paid children's area...

A cool restaurant in a crowded place. A large selection of dishes and drinks. It's pretty tasty. Music, dance floor. On the downside, there are always a lot of people, noisy and long serving of dishes. He's probably the best in Cholpon Ata.

The waiting time is 30 minutes minimum. Not only the main course, but also salads. Beshbarmak is worse than dog food. There's no meat there, just fat and the smell of rotten meat. Served by a cute buzzer girl. Well, the vegetable salad is not bad.

I come in once a year and it gets worse and worse, after last night I won't come in anymore. We waited for the waiter for a very long time, then we waited for the bill for a very long time, while we were waiting, vile live music began, which was included in the bill, although I asked to remove it, because we were delayed because we waited a long time for the bill. By food: there were no fried mantas, borsok, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, rice with vegetables, sea buckthorn tea, in short, there was no menu. Fish soup will do: potatoes and fish, without other ingredients, not even dill was poured into one serving, fried trout - from frozen raw materials, as if it was salted before freezing, dry and salty, not tasty; fresh salad - tomatoes someone stole; branded tea expensive for 377 soms - no taste at all They don 't make cheesecakes in the evening, pancakes are ok. We went to drink delicious tea with cheesecakes in Ursus, I didn't want to continue listening to live music, even though it was paid for and drinking water for 377 soms. Every year I go to the old cafes, I don't set foot here anymore.

I didn't like it very much. We've been waiting a long time for people to pay attention to us. Half of the ordered dishes were inedible, because they were cooked in "old" oil. The inedible was removed from the order without any problems, and not only from us, but also from the next table. We came on the advice of friends who were here last year, but we will not advise anyone else.

We ordered a lamb and beef kebab here. I've never seen such a disgusting barbecue in my life. Instead of mutton, there was only lard and some stringy pieces. The beef is very tough, it was impossible to chew. I do not recommend this place! 👎🏼

We've been there twice. The first time we ordered fish, I really liked it. The second time we wanted mutton, what we were served was unclear, tough, without spices, not tasty at all. We ordered a salad with crispy eggplant both times, and it's just magical.

It's terrible! The worst cafe is Cholpon-Ata. There were no fish dishes at the Fisherman's cafe! The waiter ran to the kitchen three times to clarify something, eventually brought strange pieces of deep-fried fish, sour. With mashed potatoes, sour too. We refused to eat it. And they left. I don't advise anyone to go there. There are a lot of people, waiters too, seem to be running, fussing, but still have to wait a long time. And most importantly, it's not tasty. Apparently, in the old days, this cafe was somehow promoted, but now the quality of food and service is terrible. It's a pity for the wasted time and spoiled mood.

Maybe it's not the season! At the entrance to the real maze, then in one of the halls there are handwashers, all tired soap dispensers are there (the plumbing did not wash for how long, and it already started to strain!!! I went with the desire to eat fried meat on the grill, everything was on the list in the brought menu, but only when I started ordering what I wanted that could not be done at the moment. I ordered what I had. I asked for bottled water and there was none. What I ordered tastes good, but it doesn't pull to the level of the restaurant (maybe my expectations were overstated). The waiter is a good girl, the service is 5+, and this added two points to the rating. The wish to the owners is to develop, you have a lot to strive for and leaving our feedback, we hope to improve upon a repeat visit!)))

The place seems to be nothing, but we visited them in September, ordered trout on the grill, the fish is disgusting, the mud tastes bad, we told the administrator, we want to refuse, to which we were told, it's your own fault that you ordered lake fish. She was included in the bill. I do not recommend this place to anyone.

Three stars only for the authority of the past years. The best cafe was in Cholpon Ata. The fish is fresh, not frozen, the ear is fragrant, in the morning rice porridge with milk is like at home, the portions are large for men, the prices are budget. The staff is helpful. The choice of a place for a snack was unambiguous when traveling along the northern road of Issyk-Kul. It's all in the past now. There is nothing left of the home kitchen and cozy atmosphere. A conveyor belt for making money.

I have a feeling that I was (04/13/26) in another institution, not from the comments. There is no shish kebab, no mantas, no okroshka, no fish. The girl is either asleep or doesn't know anything. It's dirty. They shamefully ran away to their neighbors.

A complete nightmare. I ordered a brazier (at our table I was not the only one who ordered a brazier) one portion was full-fledged, the other two seemed to be divided among themselves. We waited for the order for about an hour. There was an order for grilled fish and cauliflower, the waitress rushed past us for 100, and an hour later she said there was no cabbage and our grilled fish was mixed up and made in sauce. So the hungry left, so the price tag is too high, it's not worth it. As a result, I have poisoning and ruined 3 days of vacation. There is no longer a foot there
