Ilchi Uyghur Restaurant

This place is a gem! I had the Samsa and the fried lamb shank. The fried lamb shank was one of the best dishes that I’ve had during my visit to dc. The meat was tender and it combined with the veggies were perfectly seasoned. The service was excellent and the atmosphere is laid back. The restaurant is on the second level and has good views of Wisconsin street.

I came here with a friend. The chicken had bones in it which was very unpleasant. The rice dish was nice but it was more bones than meat.

Also had the sambusa which was decent.

The food was disappointing — it lacked flavor and was not fresh. The service was very slow and unprofessional. Overall, the experience did not meet expectations, and I would not recommend it.”

Very kind. Hostess she made the experience peaceful and enjoyable. I've been in the hospitality food industry for 15 years and that was some of the best tofu that I've eaten in a long time. I appreciate the hostess kindness even though I was mispronouncing the name of the place. Thank you for your patience. As a visitor to Georgetown Washington, that is a great place to stop and eat at

Good authentic Uyghur food, great service. Only thing was the A/C was broken the day we visited and it was hot together with spicy food. Otherwise, it was a pleasant experience.

Ordered delivery from here and had a bad experience. They completely forgot an item, the food wasn’t as described on their menu (entire ingredients missing and cooking style/meats totally different than described).

Bathroom sanity is questionable. It was also hot in there. The food was either too salty or dry. Also the tax was an insane amount. Would not recommend going here.
