Uyghur classics including da pan ji, tugur, and hand-pulled noodles

Turpan Uyghur restaurant

The price is good here and no service charge which is rare now in London. We tried the chicken with potato / Lamb hoof and we liked the chicken better. The chicken is tender with good flavour, although I think the taste of star anise is a bit strong. We don’t really like the lamb hoof that much as it has a certain strong smell/taste which is a bit overwhelming…

Interesting place. Had the traditional tea, noodles, soups, lamb skewers, mung bean, the medium chicken dish etc. The waiter seemed alarmed when I smiled at him. He forgot about three items we ordered but gave us free rice pudding without asking. The other diners seemed like regulars, I certainly want to come again. Cosy, flavoured, not too spicy food, with a decent portion size for this day and age. An excellent meal.

Turpan a small Uyghur spot a few min walk from Covent Garden.

Excellent affordable food and portions very generous.

Try the leghmen noodles, so flavourful and hand pulled noodles. Ask for medium heat.

Fully halal with no cross contamination. (No pork or Alcohol)

Service is nice and accept card payment. No service fee.

Nice Uyghur restaurant with lovely atmosphere in central London.
The leghmen (hand-pulled noodle) was good. My husband ordered lamb pilaf and happy about it.
The service was fast and friendly.
The atmosphere in the restaurant is nice, good for chit-chatting with friends as it is not noisy.
All the food is halal.

It's been a long wait to eat here & I was not disappointed. Having lived in Urumqi for over 4 years I can confirm the food is authentic tasting Xinjiang cuisine. I had the polo, rice had great flavour with loads of carrot, a delicious side salad, & accompanied with 2 lamb kebabs, generously seasoned with cumin/chilli, & washed down with complimentary Xinjiang tea. I will definitely be back on my next visit to London 👍

All meat served here is halal. No pork or alcohol present.
