Uyghur Lagman House

First time tried authentic Uyghur food. Bit different than Thai/Chinese dishes but very close. We ordered their Nan and Samosa as starter which was fresh. Then we ordered Rice Noodles, dumplings, special lagmen, goat polo, and one dish with potato curry. All foods were freshly cooked. Taste perfect! Place is also cozy and traditionally decorated. Service was good too! Halal NYC Uyghur restaurant

Uyghur Lagman House - 6208 Woodhaven Blvd We ordered the: Samsa Pilaf Lamb and beef kabob Lagman Cold jelly salad Cucumber salad Manta Oorima I think my fav is the Samsa just because it’s so well made and not overly thick in the skin or under stuffed with whatever meats they had leftover. Even my friend from Kazakhstan loved it ! Pilaf isn’t overly salty or had too much spice. Cold jelly salad is comparable to the salads you’d find in Chinese restaurant but less saturated with spices. Lagma Noodles - not too oily. To be honest, non of the foods were so oily that it gave me a food coma like Chinese food usually does. Would recommend also ordering the special tea to wash down a meal. Their portions are actually so good! For a party of 5, we were overly stuffed and had leftovers. It was also very reasonably priced!

Amazing food here, everything was delicious. This was my first time trying Uyghur cuisine and it did not disappoint. PARKING IS VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND HERE! One thing to note is that while we did order green tea, our table was not attended by the waiter so the service was lacking when we had finished our food and drinks. It took us a while to flag down a waiter for our check, but we were also one of their last customers. I would still come back for the food, it was great!

What a wonderful little place. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. The special Lagman was 10/10 and somehow the uyghur noodle soup was even better. Uyghur cuisine is all of the best parts of East Asian and middle eastern cuisine mixed into one. Such kind people running the restaurant and great service. Go support this small business and their vibrant culture and cuisine ❤️

We came all the way to have dinner here and it was so worth the drive. Everything we ordered is so delicious and freshly made. The atmosphere and the service is also very nice. Recommend to anyone looking for halal food/ Authentic Uyghur cuisine.

This noodle joint is a hidden gem in Queens! Nestled in Rego Park, Uyghur Lagman House offers freshly made, authentic, and halal Uyghur dishes that are as delicious as they are unique! Im so glad I finally tried it! From their house-made noodles to sizzling specialties, every item on the menu is packed with rich, unforgettable flavors. For a genuine taste of Uyghur cuisine, this is the place to be! Started with their Uyghur manta & Samsa which were so good followed by their special Lagman & Scallion lamb! Everything was truly amazing! Great service too!

I love eating Uyghur food. I’ve tried four different Uyghur restaurants, in Boston, Queens, Flushing and Manhattan and they’re all equally amazing. The use of spices, cooking techniques, and the overall taste are fantastic. This Halal restaurant we visited also had incredibly delicious food. The customer service is good, and the prices are fair. However, I don’t recommend driving there because parking can be challenging.

We came in and had dinner on a Thursday night and left completely full and satisfied. Everything we ordered we really enjoyed. We ordered 6 things, cold jelly, samsa, manti, lagman special, Kazan kebab, and the big plate chicken. We are definitely going to come back and recommend to all our friends and family. Also the chilli crisps they have on each table is really good. Goes so well with the manti and samsa.

The best Uyghur food I have had in NYC so far. All the items we ordered are excellent. The fried noodle is a bomb. The texture of the noodle is chewy and so flavorful with the chives and color pepper. We also ordered Manta (steamed dumplings) but forgot to take a pic. The size of each dumpling is huge with plentiful lamb in it. Juicy and yummy! The waiters were helpful with all our questions and provide us shared utensils and containers upon request. The only disappointed thing was that no kebab served that day due to equipment issue. Definitely will go back soon to try more food.

Amazing food, nutritious, lightly seasoned but delicious! The people are very friendly. The place has a great cultural aura with many traditional items, a mini museum. Been here many times. Definitely recommend this place!

Decent Uyghur food but lacking some of the depth found at other Uyghur spots in the area. Noodles are bouncy and you're given a generous portion. Sauce is very bell pepper in flavor rather than having a more complex profile and meat is a bit chewy. Samsa is also a bit dry. Ordered delivery so can't speak to service or atmosphere.

I'm very much coming to appreciate cuisine from this area of the world. We had been to a few similar spots nearby but this was our first time specifically trying food from Uyghur culture. And we really enjoyed it! For one, the service was awesome. They were super attentive. Admittedly, it's a small restaurant and there weren't so many people there. We got two kebabs: lamb shish and lamb rib. Both were great, so flavorful, tender, and well-seasoned (especially the rib). We were super torn about which mains to get but knew we had to get lagman. Ultimately got the special lagman, which was delicious. The noodles were great and the flavoring (after we added some of the chili oil) was really nice. I do wish it were less saucy as it was between that of a soup and a noodle dish. Also got the Uyghur polo, which was pretty good. The meat:rice ratio was a bit off but it was still a nice dish. Finally, the prices were great. Really affordable.

Had such an amazing experience here I had to share. Uyghur Lagman House - 6208 Woodhaven Blvd We ordered the: Samsa Pilaf Lamb and beef kabob Lagman Cold jelly salad Cucumber salad Manta Oorima I think my fav is the Samsa just because it's so well made and not overly thick in the skin or under stuffed with whatever meats they had leftover.

Very family friendly !!

This place is a quaint restaurant which I found off of yelp. I wanted to try something really different, so Uyghur cuisine it was. The reviews were really good for this spot, and it's fairly new. It's very affordable and the service was a bit lacking. It could be since there's only one person doing everything. After looking through the menu, since it didn't have a description and besides pictures, I didn't know what to order. We asked the waitress to go through their menu and decided on what to order from it all. The fungus salad (black mushroom salad), the samsa (bread with beef and lamb filling inside) , and the special langman (noodles with lamb mixed with sauce) were ordered. I enjoyed them all and was glad to have asked for recommendations.

I've been dreaming about trying Uyghur cuisine for years. Today was the day that my dreams came true! My expectations exceeded and I was so happy the entire time. The restaurant is decorated beautifully to showcase the Uyghur culture. I loved that the music playing was also of their culture. It's a whole Uyghur cultural explosion here and I love that!!!!! Much love to the Uyghurs. Now onto the food..... JUST REALLY AMAZING!!!! Everything is FRESH and made on the spot with the exception of the samsa which is prepared earlier in the day... technically still fresh because it was made that day. The cucumber salad is tossed in a garlic sauce that they make in-house. It was perfect in every way honestly. A great addition to have with the lagman. The lagman dishes are fantastic. All the noodles are made in-house and on the spot too... hand-pulled!!!! Boiled to perfection. The sauce that they all get tossed into... omg. I don't really think there are words to describe it. All I can tell is that it was sooooooo good. The lamb shish kebabs are the kebabs of my dreams... marinated perfectly to get rid of any gamey taste and then seasoned with all the familiar kebab spices like cumin, garlic, chili... I could probably eat that nonstop all day, every day!!! Dip it in their homemade spicy sauce and it's like sitting on a cloud, in food heaven. The dumplings and samsa were amazing. Both filled with lamb. Dumplings were juuuuicccyyy! The samsa was a favorite because it reminded me of how Filipinos make empanadas. I know it's nowhere near an empanada but the concept is similar... and I just love how it reminded me of my own people's food. Funny how cultures are so connected through food. Anyways, absolutely recommend this spot to anyone who is curious about Uyghur cuisine like me. One thing I've learned is that every Uyghur restaurant is not the same because they all choose to focus on a specific cuisine... like for example... Lagman is a noodle house!

Home-like ambiance was very sweet. I arrived a bit earlier than my friends and could comfortably sit there in the mean time. The tables do fill up, reservations are possible. The four of us tried a variety of things, total of 6 dishes. We started with the Special Lagman, which was described as a more Uyghur traditional version. It was perfect to share and had tender pieces of lamb. The noodles themselves were a treat, just the right texture and chewiness. Cucumber salad was a nice bright break between the heavier meat dishes, such as scallion lamb and the lamb soup. The uygur manta was my absolute favorite this evening. We also shared some saffron tea which was light and bright. Definitely worth the travel to try, Uyghur food has a wonderful variety of flavors and textures that I do not too often cross paths with in a single meal. I am excited for more access to food from this beautiful community. small sweet story: folks in our group this evening asked the waitress on duty if there were desserts available. she shared that pastries and other particulars were not common but people in their community do like to eat cherry tomatoes as desserts. That made me smile :)

Cute mid sized restaurant, homey cosey feel, very clean and the food was good. Beautiful presentation but the lamb stew was drowning in salt. The dry fried noodles are a must try as well as the Uyghur manta . The service was not pleasant, there is only 1 overworked waitress. Especially if you are not speaking the native language. No recommendations or suggestions especially for an establishment advertising on Tik Tok, or for first time customers. Nice experience to try a new cuisine. Parking in the area is challenging.

Newly opened Uyghur (and halal) restaurant. The samsa here have a doughy dough instead of being flaky. It was decent but a bit salty. The home style lagman here is delicious! The special lagman is slightly different than the home style one. There is wood ear fungus and the sauce is a little bit smoky and vinegary while the home style one was more sweet and flavorful. I preferred the home style one more.

We came at 8:10pm and the food is ready at 8:25pm. The place is small but the interior design very traditional. The best Uyghur polo I ever tried the rice is moisture and the lamb meat can melt in your mouth. the big plate chicken came with a flat noodle and the noodle very chewy mix with the spicy sauce from big plate chicken so yummy. Will be back again

The food was really good. We ordered the Samsa, special lagman, Uyghur manta and saffron tea. Samsa: meat and onions wrapped in dough. So good with the chili oil and black vinegar. Special Lagman: the noodles had a nice chew to them and were comforting. Nice for a cold day. Manta: similar filling to the Samsa but in a dumpling form. Saffron tea: clean, reminded me of chamomile a bit. Good vibes, though only one server doing everything so be patient

The food is excellent. CLEAN ! Service is great. The samsa's are amazing as well as the dried noodles with beef, a little too oily for me but delicious all the same. Will definitely be going back

This may have been my favorite meal all year! My friend and I stopped in by chance and were shocked by the food here. I've been dying to try Uyghur cuisine, specifically lagman, and this place exceeded expectations. We ordered the home-style lagman and those hand pulled noodles were probably the most perfect texture I've ever eaten. I didn't think I could love a noodle so much. The sauce was super flavorful, spiced and aromatic but not spicy, despite the red color. The braised lamb was super tender and fell right off the bone. I loved that it came with potatoes and carrots. The dish was so hearty and comforting. The manta were SO juicy and meaty. They were filled with lamb I believe. The waitress let us know that it would be about 25 minutes for them to come out, and that was no problem! Totally worth the wait and would eat them again! You could tell they were incredibly fresh. I loved the chili oil that came with it. The lamb shisk kebab was so delicious too and possibly my friend's favorite thing we ordered! It came out very hot which I appreciated! The staff is extremely nice and welcoming. Our waitress (who seemed like the manager/owner) was so kind and explained everything on the menu. She also recommended saffron tea, which was delicious. It's rare for me to go to a restaurant and for every single thing I order to be a 10 out of 10! We even got an extra order of lagman noodles to add to our leftovers to take home. I highly recommend coming here if you love Uyghur cuisine, and there's no better place to try this cuisine for the first time if you haven't already. The restaurant is extremely cozy and everything from the wall decor to the tablecloths makes you feel like you're in someone's home getting a special experience.

The noodles and dumplings were very flavorful. The fresh hand pulled noodles was my highlight for this place. Very kind owner.

I found this place via Tik-tok and I was dying to try this place. And I went there, food was really good but I gotta say they really needed to upgrade the servers here, she was kinda a rude and she even forgot to put our order in and we waited like 2hrs but then she came around ask if we wanted to order ...like what???

The food is very tasty and cocked to perfection ,the service was also excellent.Im looking forward to returning

As an Uyghur living in Philadelphia, I heard about the Uyghur Laghman House from my friends who live in New York. They all raved about the authentic taste of the Uyghur there. Yesterday, I finally got a chance to visit the place. Wow, they were not exaggerating. The ambiance was great. The place is nicely decorated with Uyghur cultural motifs, and Uyghur songs and videos are played on the large screen HD TV on the wall. It created an atmosphere that makes you feel like as if you were eating at a restaurant in Uyghur Homeland. We tried several dishes including the namesake dish Laghman. They were all great. The laghman tasted as authentic as it gets. Samsa was great. The manta tasted just as authentic as you would have in my hometown Kashgar. I particularly enjoyed the cold dishes: cucumber salad and langpu. The Chai, which is an important part of Uyghur meal, is prepared in very unique way and goes well with the meal. In my opinion, it is the best Uyghur restaurant in America. It is a great place to experience Uyghur culture and food. Uyghurs are one of the newest immigrant groups to arrive at the American shores. Laghman house is the kind of place make an Uyghur proud of his culture. I am glad my people have not come empty handed. Like many immigrant groups came before us, we Uyghurs brought our own cuisine to America to make our own little contributions to enrich the American culture. I highly recommend!

I have been here for a few times and the food is amazing. My husband is Uyghur and he vouches for the quality of the Uyghur food here. Service is great, as is the decor. My daughter left her little bracelet on the table when we left and they saved it for us to pick up. Strongly recommend this place.

Very clean, friendly service, delicious halal food. We ordered samba, homemade noodle, lamp shish kebab, uygur salad. We loved everything. We will surely go there again.
