What our guests are saying
This restaurant recently changed owners and underwent a renovation, and the results are impressive. I ordered the Royal Leghman, which is noticeably spicier and more flavorful than before—in the best way. I’m already planning to return to try their skewers and pilaf to compare. I’m relieved the place didn’t close down entirely and instead found a new owner who seems passionate about the food. He was very friendly and even offered me a free dessert, which was a thoughtful touch. If you haven’t visited in a while, it’s definitely worth checking out again!

Four of us came here for the first time for lunch and shared a variety of dishes. We loved the food, the service was great, the portions generous, and the prices very reasonable. There are so many interesting dishes on the menu, there's something for everyone.

The foods are absolutely delicious, the atmosphere is also warm. I like the cultural decorations on the wall which makes the restaurant look even more welcoming. Would suggest to anyone who wants to taste Turkish or Uyghur cuisine
