Don’t miss this jewel of a cafe and restaurant conveniently located at one of the entrances to the Cleveland Park Metro. The house-made noodles, unique spice profile, and authentic decor deliver an unforgettably unique experience worthy of a special visit, or a daily morning stop for espresso and specialty baked goods. It’s also within walking distance from the zoo. Enjoy!

I have never written a review like this. How does this restaurant have good ratings?
We had take out today. My husband and I have never had a dish from a restaurant that we were not able to eat. Very frustrating!
No to bad taste.

Dolan Uyghur is hands down one of the best restaurants in DC. Food, service, and atmosphere were all 10/10. They recently hosted my group of 30 for the full lamb roast and did an incredible job. Was blown away with how attentive the staff was. The lamb and chicken was the best in town. Could not recommend this gem enough!!
