    grilled garlic naan
    Phoebe S.

    having been to kusan's mountain view location, i wanted to check this one out because of slight menu differences (specifically the noodle dishes). we tried the big plate chicken which was quite spicy and aromatic with spices. i'd come back to try the chiao mian and laghman dishes to tackle the rest of the menu ;P the braised lamb shank remains a top menu item and the #1 selection that i'd recommend newcomers to in this cuisine ^_^ super tender, no gameyness, delicious pilaf to pair and tasty dipping powders. grilled garlic naan is a must as well, and the cold chili chicken was surprisingly pretty good too - there was a bit of a peppery taste to it that we really liked.

    I came here with my mom on a Friday at 11:30 AM (half an hour after opening). Immediately I noticed how clean and fancy this place looks. The seats were not comfy though. I was mainly here because I was craving hand-pulled noodles. I ordered the beef noodle soup as well as naan and samsa. The menu didn't have any pictures do that was hard for my mom, but the QR code that was used for ordering has pictures. It requires phone/email so that was a bit annoying. I was surprised by how quick the appetizers came in - it literally took one minute to arrive. The samsa is a bit small but it was good - it had a nice flavor and was my favorite part of the order. The naan did not stack up to other naans that I've had in the past. When my noodles arrived, I realized that these weren't the hand pulled noodles that I was expecting - I believe I chose the wrong menu item. Anyways, the noodles and broth felt very comforting but felt like it was lacking in flavor. The broth was reminiscent of hot water and was not satisfying. On the positive side, the food here feels very healthy and they have items in the menu that I would like to come back around to try such as the lamb wellington. For now, I was a bit underwhelmed with my first experience, but I can see myself coming back to try different things.

    Nice and clean with a black and white color scheme. I like the high ceiling, cushy seating and window look into the kitchen. Ordered 3 dishes - samsa, stretched noodle and crispy lamb - great flavor. I'm usually not a fan for lamb but theirs is quite good not gamy.

    Big Plate Chicken 大盘鸡拌面

    I can appreciate what this place is going for, but it just didn't resonate with me the way I expected. Everything tasted home-style, almost like something your parents would cook with a big pot of rice rather than a restaurant meal. I kept waiting for a dish that would really wow me, but it never quite got there. If that was the intent, then they nailed it. The Big Plate Chicken was hearty with tender hand-pulled noodles underneath, though the overall flavor profile stayed in the same warm, savory lane throughout the meal. The Lamb Kebabs were nicely grilled, but I found myself wishing for a spicy or citrusy accompaniment to add some contrast. The Samsa was enjoyable, though I was hoping for a flakier, more buttery pastry. I actually think this food might shine even more as takeout or DoorDash. The portions are generous, fairly priced, and the dishes feel like the kind of comforting meal you'd happily order on a cold weeknight. The restaurant itself is modern and inviting, but the dining setup didn't feel especially suited to the cuisine. The small plates made large pieces of meat and potatoes awkward to eat, and the lightweight flat metal chopsticks made the hand-pulled noodles surprisingly difficult to manage. I can absolutely understand why this place has such a loyal following, especially among people familiar with Uyghur cuisine. It just wasn't the standout meal I was hoping for. I'd happily order it again for takeout, even if I probably wouldn't make a special trip to dine in.

    Always love coming here and trying new dishes. Our favorites are the pilaf, lamb shank, and any noodles. The sweet raisins in the pilaf balance out the rest of the salty savory flavors. The noodles are very firm and chewy. Gotta try them all.

    I came here with a friend for dinner and we had a good time! Inside is extremely spacious with lots of seating. We ordered on the kiosk, and the food came out soon after. Service was good, and they checked on us periodically. The samsa was decent. The puff pastry is a bit dry but it still is a good bite. The laghman is also good and I love the texture of the noodles. I am personally a fan of tangier/tomato-y based sauces, so this was up my alley. It is a little oily however. I loved the rice pilaf more, the addition of raisins and carrots adds such a nice sweetness to the lamb shank. I really enjoyed this dish in particular. Overall, we had a great time!

    We came in around a bit over an hour or so before closing. We were seated immediately and our food came out decently quickly. Service was welcoming and very polite. Interior is very high end and fancier looking. This would be a great place for a date and does not have the crazy pressure of somewhere that would destroy your wallet or with too much etiquette needed. Utensils, cups, and everything look very nice too. Adds to the atmosphere. They have a physical menu but you scan the QR code to order. For our dinner, we got the: 1) Uyghur Special Milk Tea: -A must every time I go to an Uyghur restaurant. -I love the kick of saltiness to this milk tea. Very rich with the butter and cream added in too. It's comes out hot, so make sure to sip slowly and enjoy. 2) Laghman Noodles: -Anytime I eat Uyghur cuisine, I either always get the laghman noodles or the pilaf and this time we chose the noodles (next time we'll get the pilaf). We got this spicy and it comes with cabbage, potatoes, green onion and pepper and black fungi. Generous amount of veggies. -Not super spicy, but has a good kick. Deliciously tomato-y brothy soup sauce on the noodles that went deliciously well with the chewy textured noodles. I'd get this again. Good stuff. 3) Wellington Style Roasted Lamb: -Not many of the restaurants I go to have regular beef wellington. So seeing a lamb one, I KNEW we were going to order it. Super unique and I've never seen this offered at any restaurant yet. -Comes out super piping steamy hot on the inside. Lamb slides off the bone and is super moist and tender. Seasoned well, but goes well with the cumin spice powder and the sauces (yogurt based tangy sauce and the chili oil sauce). -I like that it look like a cute trilobite since the shank bone is still left in it. The pastry around has a nice crispiness to it and isn't too dry either. Definitely a lot of food for 2 people and we had leftovers, so it's definitely perfect for groups and sharing food. I'd love to come back to try more of their menu!

    I love their grilled chicken it is very tender and firm which I love. The cold noodles were great but it was a little too sour for my taste. I went as a party of 6 and my parents and their friends also ordered fish and a large lamb chop which they enjoyed. They love how spacious it was and how patient the servers were with them.

    Came here after dinner next door just for the dessert. Their signature yogurt is really good. Got curious about the yogurt ice cream so decide to try. It is definitely more yogurt and cheese than ice cream. I definitely recommend the yogurt and not so much the ice cream. Is like eating cheese and kind of dry unlike how smooth the yogurt is. The place has great ambiance and moody lighting so I can see it being a date spot or some where to go for a nice chat with a friend.

    Best lamb I have had in the Bay Area . Wellington lamb is to die for. Tripe and eggplant is flavorful. The restaurant is clean and spacious. Staff were attentive. Will come back again for sure!

    Passion Fruit Flavor Yoghurt Beverage
    Natalie T.

    4.5/5 stars! Such a unique cuisine you can't really find in the bay, and so glad I got to try! Central Asian cuisine with influences of Greek and Persian. Big Plate Chicken 9.5/10 Omg this portion was way bigger than I expected! Comes with chicken cooked similar to Chinese style, and it's so juicy and tender. It also comes with flat noodles at the bottom, and this was so good when soaking up all the chicken sauce. Plate looks small online but don't get that twisted it's a good plate to share with 2/3 people! Golden Crispy Roasted Lamb Rib 10/10 ya this was sooo delicious, we got some naan on the side to make a perfect bite with the lamb + sauce and omg that was so delectable. Their house chili oil was crispy and spicy, really paired well with their lamb Passion Fruit Yogurt Beverage 8/10 this was a good contrast to the richer foods we were eating, you could taste that punch of passion fruit and the yogurt was a bit sour and tangy like Vietnamese yogurt Overall, portions were good for the price and the cuisine was super unique as I've never had Uyghur fusion food! If you want to be adventurous and try different foods, definitely come check this restaurant out!

    Jeanette S.

    I really enjoyed my meal here. All the meats were so tender and delicious, with a lot of flavor. My favorite was a lamb tripe noodle dish - I don't think Ive ever had lamb tripe before this meal! The portions are not gigantic, but also not small. I left feeling satisfied but not super full.

    Inside

    minimal vibes inside kinda interesting I think we were only one of two tables during a weekday lunch lamb noodle soup - 7/10 not too lamb-y, surprisingly - very excessive onions tho imo beef & rice - 9/10 was v surprised at whatever the heck the rice was - kinda sweet bc it had raisins and apricots but it worked really well?? beef was soft but a little on the fatty side for me

It's like a cross between a western style bbq joint and a middle eastern twist with its meats and food. Turns out, this place is mainly an Afghan restaurant! It's half eatery half a butcher shop for people to come and purchase fresh meats for some home cooking. In fact, I watched a lot of people coming in and ordering meats to go. I ordered their chili lamb kabob which was tender and juicy. It had lots of flavor from the spices but enough to where it wasn't overwhelming. I ordered it on top of a pillow of rice which was fluffy and buttery textured. It was delicious. There are sauce bottles to pair with the meats which is my favorite part. I really liked their white creamy yogurt sauce mixed with their red house chili sauce. It gave my lamb meat so much flavor and some heat. I loved my order and will definitely order two next time. I also want to try their steaks. They take their time grilling their meats so orders can take a short while. It's worth it for sure. No complaints here but I do wish they played some light music in the background for some ambiance. Things can be real quiet in here so it can be awkward dining in. Other than that, I really like this place and will be back for more.
