Akmola Province, Kazakhstan Food Guide: 10 Italian food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Nur-Sultan

October 18, 2019 Franklyn Hardiman

Reviews on Italian food in Nur-Sultan, Akmola Province, Kazakhstan. Designated the capital city of Kazakhstan in the late 1990s, Nur-Sultan boasts a landscape glittering with new architecture and construction projects as the government infrastructure continues to be built. Old and new quarters of the city are divided by the Ishim River, with older, Soviet era structures on the north side while the governmental quarter and monuments like the monolithic Bayterek Tower spread out to the south. The central Avenue of the Republic is a hub of entertainment and business.

il FORNO

il FORNO is a restaurant with a sunny Italian soul. Pizza and pasta are cooked following the classic recipes. We keep the Wine Room in a supportive microclimate. The atmosphere is cozy and as at European Trattoria. We bake pizza in the wood-fired oven (by

We stopped by this place on a whim. The pizza we ordered was Napoli style and very nicely done. The bread basket we ordered was quite tasty also. The beer menu was very limited with nothing on tap. However, the raspberry mulled wine was quite different as well as being quite tasty.

Went here with my husband as it was only about a 10 minute walk from our hotel. We loved the bruschetta it was so tasty. We visited a few times for lunch. The penne bolognese was really nice, with nice selection of breads. The steak was also delecious as well as the tiramisu. Its not an authentic Italian restaurant, but not bad at all. Everything was clean, tidy, the staff spoke good English and it was not a long wait for the food, it was warm enough to sit outside in May, good for families, young people and just to stop off for a few drinks, watching the world go by

Really beautiful moments I shared with my bestie when visiting the Christmas brunch in La Riviere! Abundance of food from mouthwatering tarts and cakes to fresh seafood and just-cooked-for-you steaks. The chef over there is genius for gastronomy, also very friendly with the people around, actually as the rest of service staff in the restaurant ..The exciting scent of the season in the air, the tickling bubbles of champagne in the mouth.. Anticipation..What could be better?!)OxanaDear Oxana,Thank you for your delightful feedback regarding your dining experience at the St. Regis Christmas Brunch!

The dolmas (stuffed grape leaves) were the best I've ever had (not usually a fan) and the eggplant appetizer was excellent. The vegetarian we took was happy. The decor is pleasant. Sadly my Uzbek fried lagman type dish was "meh", and I heard no raves about anyone else's main dish.

I have visited this restaurant and I am completely disappointed with the service. The administrator(with long ginger hair, unfortunately she refused saying her name) was really unhelpful and deceptive. I want to have shisha ( I called in advance to be sure that it is allowed to have shisha and they said yes) but, in fact, what I have been told that it is prohibitted. To my dissapointment, I saw other guests smoking that. What? Beside that, I was waiting for my order for amost an hour. The atmosphere war really unfriendly. I would NOT recommend that place. Personally I will never return back. The only positive person was the waitor - Vasiliy, very helpful guy! Hello! Thank you for your feedback about us. That day we could not sell hookahs on the second floor. We are very sorry for this situation. We will work to improve the quality of our service. We will be glad to see you again in our institution. With respect, Chechil pubNazerke. Guest service.

I am sorry to say that, but she always says 'NO we are full' with an angry face when she can free at least a few spots by separating long tables second part of which nobody uses. She is obviously not interested in her job and wasting her time.

We were walking the tourist route admiring all the wonderful new architecture of Astana and came upon this restaurant around 1 PM. A waitress seated us with pictured English menus featuring pizza, pasta, sandwiches, and salads. After taking our order, she returned with steaming hot fruit tea, followed by our perfectly seasoned Mixed Salad, and in less than 15 minutes, our nicely browned Vegetarian Pizza. I had a second cup of hot water for my tea and we both used the clean restroom before paying our bill. Great food and service in pleasant atmosphere with moderate price, totaling 4620 Kzt=$~12.

The service is just okay. I bit annoying - I went to take breather outside and the manager stopped me at the doors asking to pay my bill now. I said I'm not leaving yet I gave her my Passport. After 5 mins the Manager approached me again still insisting me on close my bill. Which we did. I find it pretty annoying.The food was below average. Had pasta with a glass of horrible house pouring wine.I wouldn't recommend this place.And won't visit it again.
