Urumqi Uyghur Cuisine

Walked past this place a few times a decided to try it out for dinner. It seems to be a very popular location so I would highly recommend booking a reservation. The staff was very accommodating. The menu is quite wide with so many amazing options at very good prices. The lagman is a must try- very authentic and reminded me of my childhood. The salads and the dumplings pair very well with the mains as they’re light and refreshing helping break through the heaviness of the main dish. If you’re looking for some authentic Uyghur food at a decent price I highly recommend this place. Also I’m pretty sure the dishes are all made fresh to order as they took a bit to come out but the food is so totally worth waiting for 😌👌🏻

Great flavours. Great price. We order chicken on a bed of noodles, 2 kebabs and a fried rice. Kebab was nice and tender with Charcoal flavours. Fried rice was nice and fluffy and flavoursome. Chicken noodles was fragrant and luscious. BIG servings, we took home what we couldn't finish and had a second meal the next day. Will be back 👍

Nearly all the dishes I've tried here over the past few years have been great, and the portions are generous (although it can be a bit on the oily side). So if all you're looking for is a good meal, it's fantastic. But the service is an absolute disgrace. Both of the waitresses are very unfriendly (especially towards Chinese customers I feel - yes, even if you speak English), act like entitled and annoyed brats while working, and have major attitude even when it's not prompted. The customer service is so bad that despite the outstanding food, it makes for an uncomfortable eating environment, and I for one no longer want to come back.
