Anytime my husband and I are visiting a city we have to look up Uyghur food near us as it is one of our favorite cuisines. We got the stir fry lamb with cumin which came with rice. Flavor was good. The lamb was a bit chewy and dry.

4.5 stars, I'm rounding up because of the noodle freshness and the location. The vegetables and bread are weak points, don't go for those. The lagman here are every bit as good as you'll find in South Brooklyn, despite the touristy location near Penn Station. (This is the perfect pre-train meal.) They're pulled fresh to order, and you can taste that in the springiness of the noodles. Despite that it comes out fast: basically, I ordered, heard them pounding out the noodles, saw fire coming off of a wok, and then had my meal within 10 minutes. The soup-sauce for the lagman is standard, nothing special. Lamb is nicely seasoned but a bit chewy, vegetables were too heavy on onions and not enough on peppers, I thought. I got some bread for the train, that was a weak point. It didn't have much flavor and was below average. I'd stick to the sauteed foods here, rather than the baked ones.

This restaurant is located in the Hell's Kitchen area close to Macy's. There are numerous chain restaurants in this area, which makes it highly "touristy." Finding this hidden delicacy thrilled me so much, especially considering I've never tried Uyghur food. The space has a cozy feel to it thanks to the light wall decor. Orders are placed at a tiny counter near the menus; there is no waiter or waitress present, and credit or debit cards are accepted. After placing your order, you can select a table and start to eat! It was a chilly day in the city, and I was craving something delicious. I had stir-fried noodles with beef and spicy chicken with a side of rice. The dish was served pretty quickly, and I must admit that I inhaled everything! The chicken was extremely flavorful and it was juicy and had a nice spicy touch to it. It was unlike anything I had ever experienced. The beef was juicy and delicious, the noodles were thick and fresh, and the meal had a great flavor overall. The prices were really affordable, and the quantities were large enough to share. It felt like South Asian cuisine married Asian cuisine; the flavors were distinct. I also tried the mandarin soda which was yummy! They had an upstairs bathroom that was perhaps the cleanest restaurant restroom I've seen in the city, and the staff was really polite. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who is eager to try something new. This is a highly touristic and busy neighborhood, so parking can be difficult unless you find a parking garage. You can also utilize public transportation to get here.

LOVED this place!!! Stumbled across it on the way to my friend's apt and was curious to try out Uyghur cuisine and it definitely did not dissapoint. Both dishes my friend and I got were super flavorful. I think this would be perfect for Sichuan lovers. The prices are a little steep but the food is quite filling. Definitely shareable. My friend and I shared two entrees and we had leftovers as well.
