Review Summary

Le Taklamakan is widely celebrated for its authentic and flavorful Uyghur cuisine, with many patrons highlighting the handmade noodles, big chicken plate, and house made cheesecake as standout offerings. While most experiences emphasize the generous portion sizes, warm service, and excellent value, there are occasional inconsistencies regarding food texture and temperature, particularly with lamb dishes and take out packaging. Despite minor critiques, the restaurant is frequently described as a hidden gem in Montreal that offers a welcoming environment and consistently delicious meals, making it a highly recommended destination for those seeking a unique and memorable dining experience.

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
