    Dolan serves amazing Xinjiang food! Everything tastes authentic, but the Big Plate Chicken is an absolute must-try — flavorful, generous portion, tender chicken, and delicious noodles. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is great. Highly recommend!

    I had an amazing experience at this Uyghur restaurant in Washington, D.C. Every single dish I tried was absolutely delicious, full of rich flavors and fresh ingredients. My personal favorite is the Big Chicken Plate — perfectly seasoned, hearty, and incredibly satisfying. I also loved their chai tea, which is warm, fragrant, and the perfect complement to the meal. Highly recommended for anyone looking to try authentic and flavorful Uyghur cuisine!
