First time trying Uyghur food, and I’m hooked. Easily some of the best noodles I’ve had all year — everything’s made in house and you can taste the difference. The dumplings had perfect texture, with a filling seasoned boldly, leaning Middle Eastern in flavor. The lamb kebabs were cooked over coal and came out with that perfect smoky char. On top of all that, the owner was warm and genuinely helpful walking us through the menu. We’ll definitely be back. Thanks for the beautiful dinner, we really appreciate your hospitality.

Food absolutely amazing. Had garlic chicken fried rice, lamb kabab, and some stir fried hand made noodle. Spiced but not hot.
Toddler ate everything so that some high praise

Turan Uyghur Kitchen is a wonderful little spot! The restaurant is small and cozy, with very generous and attentive staff. The food was authentic, delicious, and reasonably priced. I especially appreciated that it is a Zabiha Halal-certified location. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for authentic Uyghur cuisine!

There are some restaurants you go back to for the atmosphere, and others you go back to for the food. This is definitely one of those places you return to for the food.
Don’t judge a book by its cover. Be patient, and the food will make the trip worth it. Don’t expect too much from the atmosphere—let the food tell the story.
I’m familiar with Uyghur cuisine, and this place did not disappoint. I tried both the Laghman Gyro and the regular Laghman, and they were just as authentic as I expected. Definitely try the samsa too—you won’t regret it.
Set in a row of other Chinese restaurants, this one is Ughyir cuisine. Ordered:
Laghman: was expecting slightly more spices, but it was bland.
Dumplings (Mandu) onions were still raw, and the meat had a raw taste. The waitress stated they steam them to a certain temperature, but that did not seem to matter to final product. They did comp the egg rolls in the end.
Eggrolls- suckers cuisine granted, but they arrived completely fried on the outside and cold on the inside. Additionally, the vegetable mix in the egg roll had the consistency of oatmeal.
Kaur laghman (handmade noodles with stirfry beef on top) I really liked that one!
Black tea- not overly impressed
Mint tea: not too bad
