Very good and authentic Uyghur food. Ordered a laghman and a cold noodle and the laghman is exceptionally good.

I've had this spot bookmarked in my "Places to Try" collection for a while, and I'm glad my friend recommended it so that I can at long last cross it off my Yelp bucket list. We went in on Friday at 12:30pm, and was seated immediately. The place was fairly empty, there was two separate groups of 2, and then 2 sets of individual diners. Given the rave reviews, we were surprised by the relative emptiness. The place is uniquely decorated and interesting to look at. The lighting is a little dim, but not so much that you cannot see your food or your fellow diners. There is one spotlight above each booth though, so if you had a slightly larger party in your booth, you will have less light on the sides. The place is quite quiet though, the music was possibly on low (actually I can't even remember if there was any come to think of it), and everyone was respectfully quiet. My girlfriend and I probably were accidentally too loud for the space one in a while, and our voices would reverberate in the large but relatively empty place. In hindsight, it probably made sense there were a few folks dining on their own, probably trying to look for a quiet lunch to themselves (oops, sorry!). Service was decent. The staff member who attended to us was extremely friendly and was helpful when we tried to order the milk tea and informed us that it was salty (we decided against it, also because it was whole milk and we forgot our Lactaids). The food came out pretty quickly, some within minutes. Now you might notice that the other Yelp reviews rave about the chili oil, and agree it's pretty legit. However the one at my table was almost completely empty (a clear indicator that it's awesome), so I requested a fuller one and handed the empty jar to our attendant. This was unfortunately forgotten, and I joke that I ended up with even less chili oil than I started with. We were halfway between our meal before we decided to flag someone down to help bring us some, which came quickly afterwards. Now the food is great. What I didn't expect was that it definitely hit the nostalgia factor from my childhood when we lived in Beijing. It reminded me of the days when we chowed down on the mouth-watering cumin and fennel covered lamb skewers from a most definitely unlicensed and possibly sketchy vendor camped on the sidewalk. We ordered 4 items: 1) pumpkin manta, 2) hand-pulled laghman, 3) kewap cold noodles, and 4) honey jasmine tea drink. Everything was pretty great. I highly recommend the hand-pulled laghman - the noodles were perfectly cooked and chewy! The kewap cold noodles were okay - the lamb on top are fantastic (!!!!) but the noodles were lukewarm, not sure if they got heated up from the lamb on top, or not cooled down long enough, but given the middling temp it was a little less appetizing. The one strange thing was that the honey jasmine tea drink comes in a bottle and we were expecting a freshly brewed pot or mug of tea instead. It would be super helpful and appreciated if this was mentioned when we ordered it because it would have changed our mind. Note that it's 150 kcals and super sweet. We had to split it half-half with water to tone it down (I *think* the waiter mentioned it was sweet though, we just didn't expect this much). Overall, I enjoyed this place. The food is great, the service is pretty great too. The ambiance made us feel a little awkward, but most likely it's not them but rather us - it just wasn't the right environment at the time for two giggly women trying to catch up. I'll for sure be back, but maybe when I'm looking for a little quieter and more zen dining experience.
