Review Summary

Reviewers describe Le Taklamakan as a small, welcoming spot delivering authentic Uyghur cuisine with generous shareable portions and a focus on handmade noodles and pilaf. The flavors are praised as deeply authentic and often compared with the best Uyghur offerings in Montreal, with many diners enjoying big dishes for sharing and highlighting the housemade cheesecake as a standout. Service is consistently described as friendly and knowledgeable, and takeout receives high marks for reliability and quality. Some criticisms appear alongside the praise, including a lamb dish that was tough or dry, a kebab that could be bland and lean, and noodles that arrive lukewarm; a restroom in one review was noted as dirty. Overall the reviews frame Le Taklamakan as a hidden gem and a top choice for authentic Uyghur cuisine in Montreal, with many patrons planning to return to sample more items.

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.

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.

Big chicken plate was so so delicious! Samsa was only for Friday & Weekends so we could not try them. Dumplings were good, too. Edit: I revisited this place & had samsa (lamb bread) & lamb rib stew over bread. Amazing, awesome, so good!

This place is AMAZING. A HIDDEN GEM The lamb is super tender & filled with flavor. The cumin compliments lamb perfectly. The fried noodles are to die for. I love spicy so it was amazing. You can request to make it less spicy if you prefer. The steam dumplings (manti) are filled with onion & are suuper juicy. The staff is extremely friendly & professional. Feels super welcoming & kind of feels like home

Great experience. Price & quantity ratio very friendly. It's definitely a place to try a different chinese food from the one we used to know. Lamb bbq is a must. Be prepared to eat spicy. Definitely recommend it.
