We celebrated a friend's birthday at this institution. I really liked the food, the service, and the atmosphere. The waiter guys were very courteous, answered all questions about dishes and drinks. I would also like to note that they looked clean, neat, well, handsome! The food is very tasty and varied, they ate a lot, took the pilaf home (did not fit into anyone). The atmosphere in the restaurant is cozy and conducive to a pleasant pastime.
In general, hardening 5 out of 5!
Samal restaurant is located in a very picturesque place - mountainous terrain, forest. It is in demand among both tourists and residents of Almaty. The staff is polite. Purity. The food is delicious.
Unexpectedly nice hotel. The breakfasts are excellent, the food in the restaurant is delicious. The spa is not bad, but it would be nice to have hot water in the zacuzi. The baths are good.
It's true that repairs are asking for, but everything is clean and well. The view from the window to Dostyk is not bad. In general, we liked it.
Earlier in the Soviet years there was a Samal restaurant with interesting architecture. Like an Alpine cabin. I was there in 1987. And recently on March 6th, in a new building. Nice, clean, and cozy. Beautiful terrace, overlooking the mountains.
The cannon! Everything is delicious as much as possible! Get off your head! The vegetables are juicy and fragrant, it is clear that they are carefully chosen, all the dishes from the grill are incredibly juicy. There are not many people, the staff is polite.
The last time I was in the old legendary Samal was more than 20 years ago... Thanks to everyone who participated in its restoration! Yes, this is a completely different restaurant, but we have preserved the spirit of a high level and sincere disposition!!! RAKHMET!!!
I really liked it!!!
We will definitely come back!!!
Ice cream from koumiss 🔥🔥🔥
And you also tear the baursak and inside you press, sting, kazy, onion, greens... Divine!(in the photo)
I like the restaurant, we hold various events there. They cook delicious food. BUT I don't like that they keep birds in cages there. The last time we were there, there was live music, so there was one bird that climbed into its empty bowl, sweated all the way or this bowl with water was. In general, they also have different personalities, like people, if one sings along, then the other shakes with fear. Because basically all living things love silence. I feel sorry for the birds. Against the use of birds and other animals in entertainment places!
A very cool family recreation center. There is everything you needed: a swimming pool, a canteen, a training area, a play area, and a place to relax. I recommend it to everyone
We were at a conference in this place. It is located in a beautiful place, the view is gorgeous and opens to the mountains, the air is fresh. The interior is in oriental style, the restaurant has live birdsong. We also noted the polite staff and very tasty food. We were fed lunch and coffee breaks for two days. I was surprised by the variety of offers and excellent taste. Thank you, we were satisfied.
An aquarium can be called in another way, because the entire interior, walls and floor are like the walls of an aquarium in which beautiful fish swim. Moreover, when stepping on the floor, circles spread from the feet.
I liked the menu too, especially the salad with fried eggplant.
And my grandson really liked the playroom.
The place is beautiful, the cuisine is good and the portions are huge, the prices are slightly above average, but tolerable. I was also pleased with the tea, I took 1 point for the horses that are placed in cages in the hall, they scream non-stop and make it very difficult to communicate, we had a cage exactly behind our head (behind the back of the sofa).
We recently spent 4 nights there, a very cool hotel, clean, quiet, the staff is polite.it's cool that each room has its own small terrace. The air and the view are excellent !The pool and hammam are also very clean and cozy and the furniture and interior items are super!If we are still in Almaty, we will stay at this hotel again.I recommend it!!!
He visited the institution as a guest of the conference. Lunch and dinner are great. The staff is attentive- excellent. The territory is good. Parking for guests is excellent.
I will plan a visit as a guest to understand the price level of the menu.
The restaurant is cool admin girls are really sincere for any event such cute shy people and what kind of kitchen eggplants in sweet and sour sauce who did not eat did not eat we will get more especially a guy named Ramadan the waiter did not have time to drink a glass he was already on the pouring well done staff but there is one thing but in the evening the cold outside needs a warm top Underwear is really a jacket
A very high-quality place to relax with a good breakfast and a spa area. However, the hammam did not work, it was very noticeable on the way to the sauna that the hammam was being repaired - it was necessary to cross a puddle with not very clean water. The staff is very friendly. A very high-quality massage.
I will say one thing, after the renovation we could not recreate the atmosphere that people remember and loved! This is no longer a historical landmark, but a standard restaurant!
For food - a small breakfast table with 5 hot dishes, a bunch of snacks, several desserts, two compotes and a coffee machine with tea. I have no complaints about the freshness of the food, the speed of "updating" the dishes. I was pleased with the presence of cottage cheese =)
The service, as well as the staff themselves, are good
I was pleased with the presence of a Finnish sauna, swimming pools (simple and with hydromassage).
One of the pleasant surprises is the underfloor heating in the bathroom, which was not specified in the description of the room on the booking
A wonderful place, an interesting interior. the dishes are delicious, there is a wide variety to choose from. Samsa, beshbarmak 👌👍the staff is responsive , tries to fulfill your requests. We had a great time.
A very cozy hotel with a good SPA. Massage therapists were trained in China. 10 types of massage. Swimming pool, hammam. Clean air and a delicious restaurant. The staff is polite and friendly. The Chumbulak Ski Lift is 3 km away.
I love this restaurant: location, cuisine. But the minus according to the waiters, in such a respectable institution there should be qualified staff, and they do not understand what gluten-free dishes mean, they seemed to explain for a long time that gluten is flour, so that nothing would happen, they still brought shish kebab on pita bread, said replace, they say allergies, they just removed the pita bread, and the fact that there are traces left on the meat and they are also dangerous to an allergic person - they do not know. At the end of all this, ice cream was brought and sprinkled again - cookies, ie gluten. Most likely, either the waiters do not pass on the client's instructions on the intolerance of certain products, or the chefs are just as illiterate, very sad
Excellent pilaf, salads, you can walk from the Medeo. It's a bit expensive, but the location and atmosphere are worth it

I liked the restaurant: both the oriental surroundings and the rich menu.
Everything we ordered was delicious.
The waiters serve quickly, explain everything (it is not always clear by name what kind of dish).
What kind of manta rays are there! And what a barbecue! It's cool in summer, and it's not a pity to drive 15 minutes from the city center for a view of the mountains....
A wonderful hotel! The rooms are spacious, breakfast is for 5 people, the staff is super (except the maids..they asked for a razor -they didn't bring it in 5 days)
Terrible cuisine - they served a whole spoiled lamb in a tandoor. They assured our whole company that it was a marinade, although the stench was terrible. I spent the whole next day sitting on the toilet, thank you so much for the unforgettable experience!
Besides the lamb snacks, salads and tortillas were also tasteless. The Kazas are too greasy and over-salted, tasteless salad with tomatoes and tortillas with a taste of rancid butter.

A wonderful place, the horse meat steak is delicious!
In general, we were pleased with all the ordered dishes of national cuisine
Excellent cuisine, attentive service, comfortable prices. Magnificent view of the mountains, pleasant interior. High-quality hookah. The serving of the dishes is fast enough. The bathroom should be updated
I've never eaten pilaf in an institution. The menu here is so beautiful that I decided to order and did not regret it, delicious, and most importantly fresh. The staff also deserves separate comments and only positive ones
The staff is good. Helpful. It's inconvenient to drive to them. It's probably a fairy tale in summer. In the winter evening, I was not particularly impressed by the view. The food was not bad.
I had a great wedding! Administrator Myra, Radion, you are the best! Myra is grateful first of all, everything was under their strict control! The restaurant is a tower , the kitchen is even higher ) The guests were shocked 👌🏼🥳
Coming down from the mountains, breathing in the cold fresh air on the ski slope or on foot, it is simply necessary to go to Samal. We are not local people, so we were not going to look for minor flaws in kebabs, pilaf or beshbarmak, but simply ate delicious and a lot.
It is also great for special events.
