We loved Le Taklamakan for its fresh ingredients, warm & courteous service, & cleanliness. This restaurant specializes in authentic Uyghur & Xinjiang cuisine. We decided to give this place a try!!

The menu features halal dishes from this Central Asian & Chinese intersection, such as handmade laghman noodles, tender lamb skewers, & the famous'Big Plate Chicken' (da pan ji) made for sharing. I sampled the Samsa as my appetizer. A flaky, savory pastry pocket filled with minced lamb & onions, heavily seasoned with black pepper & baked until golden brown. ❤? We shared the Uyghur Steamed Dumplings, Delicious!! &, we each ordered the savory Dry Fried Noodles.

I learned that authentic Uyghur & Xinjiang cuisine is a vibrant, hearty culinary tradition from China's northwestern Xinjiang region, blending Central Asian heartiness with Silk Road spice profiles & Chinese stir-fry techniques.

Because the Uyghur people are an ancient Turkic ethnic group, the cuisine relies heavily on halal cooking traditions & mirrors flavors found in Uzbek, Turkish, & Middle Eastern kitchens, rather than typical East Asian cuisine.
If you haven't stopped by to sample the menu, I highly recommend you sample their menu.

Restaurant roulette brought me here, the great taste will bring me back. While I have no benchmark to judge the cuisine from this culture, it felt that the meal we enjoyed was felt true & uncompromised: lamb skewers were earthy, dry noodles fragrant & warmly spicy. Looking forward to explore the other menu offerings.

Our first time to experience Uyghur cuisine . It was a splendid surprise. Small restaurant. Great service. Delicious food. We shared Samsa (stuffed with lamb), which was good but slightly dry, a dip option would have preferred. Then we got this chicken dish with noodles, potatoes & bell peppers. It was so good, & slightly spicy (if you are tolerant). It was a huge dish, perfect for sharing. I definitely recommend this lovely place.

100% authentic!!! The dry fried noodle really made me homesick. Staffs are all kind, especially the tall guy! It is gem, Highly recommended.

Ordered lamb kebab & special leghmen. The kebab is purely lean meat, no fat at all, thus dry. It's so bland, I had to ask for some table salt. The noodle was lukewarm at most, not sure how it's possible.
