Amazing food. Poor experience. The entire operation is done by a single person, who appears to be cooking and on phone the entire time. He seems withdrawn and uninterested in taking orders from anyone. The wait for food is VERY long, almost 30 minutes for a bowl of lamb shank and nan. The lamb shank is super tender and the soup is very flavourful with a hint of spiciness. There could be more meat though. The nan is excellent, especially dipped into the soup. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this place due to the slow service.

The lamb soup and roasted buns taste good. Price is reasonable. They're located in the food court, typically closing around 7 pm.

The food at this restaurant is fantastic. It is one of my families go to restaurant and we drive 30 minutes out of our way just for the restaurant. The food is fresh, flavourful, and hearty. We always get a few extra samsas and meat pies to eat over the next few days because they are delicious and so well made. Everything we’ve tried at the restaurant has been exceptional, with our favourites being the ququre soup, polo, and dapanji.

I have been waiting forever to try authentic Uyghur food and just so happened to stumble upon this fine establishment. I approached the front counter to place my order with 1.5hr left before closing and the owner said "I'm sorry brother we actually had to close early today we sold out of 95% of our menu today". My heart sank because I was so excited, but was also filled with joy because I knew if a restaurant sold out early I know it meant this place is amazing. The owner could tell I was saddened to hear that but I knew It was tough to say to a customer. He then said I have enough for one order of Lamb Polo and the lamb dumpling soup if I was interested. I quickly said yes and took him up on the offer.This was one of the best meals I have had in a long time, and I am very very grateful for the owner to allow me to experience true Uyghur Cuisine. The food was perfectly seasoned and cooked every bite filled me with joy.Highly Highly recommend this place to anyone out there reading this, you truly won't make a bad decision by coming here. Proper 10/10 rating!!!Thank you so much , and I definitely will always be coming back here!

The grilled buns, large plate of chicken and Xinjiang fried noodles in this restaurant are super delicious, and the boss makes all the noodles freshly. It just takes a long time. If you are hungry, you must not choose this restaurant. The good food takes time to cook.

We were really excited to try this place but it was a very underwhelming experience. It was after 3pm on a Sunday afternoon. We were the only ones waiting at their stall, and the person working did not even acknowledge us and continued to stare at their cell phone. It took over 5 minutes before our order was finally taken, and then maybe 20 minutes more before our food was ready - which would have been acceptable except our food was barely lukewarm at best once we got it. It’s really too bad because the taste was actually pretty good. Maybe don’t expect too much, given it’s still just a food court. Sadly it’s just another overhyped place.

Not too often do you come across Uyghur food (and in a foodcourt and a 'Chinese style Mall). Pretty decent food. They also hand stretch their noodles. It's worth a try. Free parking at Henderson Mall.Parking: Rooftop parking off Lincoln.Kid-friendliness: It's a food court so great for kidsWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible at the mall

Tried the lamb shank with rice! The rice is so full of taste! Lamb shank is spot on! Need to try the naan and soup next time! It is halal too.
This place is a gem. They hand make the noodles, seemingly to order. Food takes a bit longer to come out, but it's absolutely delicious. Recommend getting the Lagman, lots of veggies and meat on top of a huge pile of hand stretched noodles in an absolutely delicious sauce. Get a Uyghur Nan so clean up your plate!

Came here for the dapanji (chicken with hand pulled noodle) which was really good! The baozi (lamb buns) were average, the lamb filling was kind of tough and chewy. Saw people order other dishes and they looked good too, just beware that the wait time is generally quite long (I 40 minutes for those 2 dishes, so did everyone else who ordered before and after me, and yes it is a a food court restaurant lol)
