Karamay is our favourite for Authentic Chinese Cuisine. Very friendly staff, food is always fresh and tasty. Looking forward for their new restaurant to open Karamay Hot Pot.
It has lagman. People, it has lagman!!! Seriously, it's the only place that has food that a Kazakh can actually recognize. Seriously, go there.
The brother who served us was very polite and the food was served quickly. Good experience trying Uyghur cuisine. In my opinion the dishes I ordered were just above room temperature, when I enquired I was explained that pulled noodles had to be put in cold water so they don't stick however if you want more warm or hot in temperature do let them know and any sauce base dishes they'll take care of. Seating and interior were good.
I had the pleasure of dining at this lovely restaurant in Leicester with my partner and it was an experience to remember! The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish surpassing our expectations – the quality and taste were top-notch, making it excellent value for money. What truly stood out was the service; the staff were incredibly friendly and considerate, adding a personal touch to our visit. Despite the rainy weather and it being New Year’s Eve, we made the long journey, arriving right at opening time. It was undoubtedly worth the trip. Their warm welcome and exceptional service made our celebration even more special. I’m eagerly looking forward to returning to this wonderful place!
We had an amazing time at this Uyghur restaurant in Leicester. The food is genuine, place looks beautiful, and the service is top-notch. The Lagman noodles are really tasty. Definitely recommend!
Been looking forward to coming here as I'd heard they make their own noodles. Despite that, was lured into bao buns, gizzard skewers and their lamb casserole; the latter almost had a Sunday dinner vibe about it. All were very good indeed. Service was excellent and most tables full. It is well worth coming here to taste a different quite mellow and flavoursome type of cooking from the region. Will be back for the Uighur noodles! Thanks for a great evening.
Nice place to eat with family and friends. Very warm and homely atmosphere with "proper" food compared to burgers/chips/steaks etc. Portions sizes for mains are good, very filling and tasty. Service could be improved at times when it gets busy but generally okay. Would recommend handpulled Noodles, fried dumplings, rice dishes, stews.
The atmosphere was so lovely and the staff were very friendly and welcoming! They explained each of the dishes clearly and helped us a lot. We got the sharing chicken stew which could feed 3-4 it was massive and really yummy! The hand pulled noodles were amazing and all made in house. The lamb skewers were very tender and I would really recommend. The mapo tofu was very flavourful with a nice spicy kick to it, it was still good when we had it at home the next day!
Thank you so much for a lovely evening! Look forward to coming back here ☺️
The noodles are amazing, perfect texture. Chips are delicious. Great food. This is a cute place for a casual date night or dinner with friends. The waiters were distracted and difficult to pin down but friendly when you did manage to speak to them.
I went out to Karamay for the first time for my birthday lunch. The lady serving us was so lovely, she placed birthday decorations around our table and was so helpful in deciding what to eat. The portions were generous and filling and everything was delicious! I really recommend Karamay.
I have always wanted to come here ever since I arrived here in September. And I’m so glad I did! These were the best beef noodles I’ve ever had in my life! The beef was tender and the noodles were perfectly cooked. The food was so fresh and I didn’t feel heavy after eating it. Absolutely amazing and I will be back!
The chef's special goyru leghman was fantastic (I absolutely recommend), my date also enjoyed the dumplings. The grilled lamb skewers also tasted nice and I'd recommend the red iced tea over the green. Amazing place and delicious food overall.
