Close to the Russian Market in Ashgabat is Zip which we tried out for a meal recently when in the capital of Turkmenistan. Itâs a very Russian restaurant so we were glad we could get by with our hodge-podge Russian language skills and the staff were very patient and took the time to make sure we were on the same page. The menu was a bit intimidating but we managed, our meals were delicious, the meat cooked properly to order which was a nice surprise, the drinks flowed fast and the courtyard dining area was so laid back and perfect for the meal. Price-wise pretty average pricing so no surprises there, we enjoyed our time there, my brother really hit it off with some people at the next table and we would return when in Ashgabat again.

Altyn Jam in Ashgabat was recommended by our fixer/guide Oraz who dines there often and enjoys it. It was a good meal, nice atmosphere, friendly staff and good food, pretty busy place the night we were there and we left full and satisfied. I would want to go back but without our fixer (he is great donât get me wrong) as Iâm not sure if we go the same service others get due to his presence there and knowing the establishment. Try it for yourself, it was good for us.

3. Talhan
Reviewed By guljemaltaj
So we had a family visit to Talhan restaurant Bagtyyarlyk on Saturday evening. Much to the amazement of the decor, we thought the kithen will be good too. Well there is not much variety, firstly. Though they have few unique dishes, the preparation of it is not up to the mark, i would say. The vegetable plate and oven cooked potatoes were not fully cooked. They were closer to being raw. Not worth the price. They charged us extra for mayoneise and ketchup (though ketchup was out at that time) which i think was unnecessary! Dont recommend it. We surely wont be going there again.

"Mandarin" is recently opened restaurant/bar in biggest shopping mall "Berkarar" on 4th floor. (June/July 2017). FYI its sharing one place with "Zaman" club. When You enter turn to right or ask Mandarin. Indoor and Outdoor options. (We sat down in terrace). Well furnished. Everything is new. By new I mean crispy new. Owner has a good taste I would say. As name suggests "Mandarin" theme is maintaned in everything. Even WC has pleasant mandarin smell. According to me chandelier resembles another rest.nt "Soltan" chandelier.(See uploaded photo). Might be owner is the same person. Mainly visitors are foreigners. I think its only place where You can feel You are abroad. Food price is expensive. That might be reason lack of locals dining there. Tried spagetti,chicken sauce, couple of salads. Though I was hungry did not find tasty. Later we were told by another visitor they have live music too. Not sure on which days. (That was my first impression. I would try another food items too in future).Waiter girls are friendly, nice. Again my hawky eye, their uniform is some light dark blue shade. On neck orange color scarf which is really matching with whole atmosphere.Wow effect , there is even crate near entrance with real oranges. I believe its part of design too. Oops, "Mandarin" I could not resist not taking one of them. Maybe, You need to start a custom giving oranges to leaving customer hehe.Overall Ambience 5/5Food 3/5Service 5/5Price - 3/5 Not pocket friendly at all. Well, we get what we pay :) Atmosphere 4/5. If they will keep same level for a long time gonna give 5/5.
