“ This was my first time trying Uyghur cuisine, and it was 100 worth it. Everything from the food to the ambiance and the service was topnotch, even the cutlery! To start off, they gave us a complimentary blueberry yogurt, which was the perfect palate cleanser. I ordered the lamb cumin chaomian, which was really flavorful, and what surprised me the most was that it was ready in no more than 5 minutes. I also got the chicken and lamb skewers, which were cooked to perfection. The ambience was really warm and cozy, and I absolutely loved my time here. ”

“ After almost 2 years me and my family 2 kids under 10 came to this place around 2PM Saturday for lunch. We were lucky the lunch crowd just left. Also we were very satisfied with the food, the service and overall experience. They offer a wide variety of handmade fruit yogurt, kids love it. The beef rib was delicious and in big portions. The lamb rib was tender and juicy. The lamb rice was also great with big chunks of lamb leg meat. Strongly recommended. ”
“ The laghman here is exceptional probably the best weve had anywhere. Fresh, delicious noodles and lots of fresh veggies. Their housemade yoghurt drinks are really lovely, too I got the honey yuzu and it was subtly sweet and citrusy. If youre looking for authentic Uyghur food, go out of your way to come here! ”
“ The Uyghur food here is absolutely delicious, and the service is excellent. The Polo comes in a generous portion, and I especially love the refreshing side salad that accompanies it. The Samsa is a musttry as well. Highly recommended! ”
“ One of the best places to eat Lamb dishes. The ambiance was so perfect and welcoming. I highly recommend coming here with family and friends. ”
“ We ordered the golden crispy lamb chop and it was the best lamb chop Ive had in the US. The outside was perfectly crispy while the inside remained tender and juicy. The steak was also pretty good, and the baklava is similar to Greek style which mainly used honey and wasnt too sweet. The specialty milk tea was surprisingly addictive, the saltiness and buttery texture blends perfectly and melts right in the mouth. The service was great and the atmosphere was perfect too! In a little over one month of time I have recommended this restaurant to three people with different taste profiles and they all loved the lamb. ”
