The Uyghur way of life is now at a crossroads. One path leads to cultural preservation and dignity for the Uyghur people. The other path is less than certain. At Dolan Uyghur Restaurant, we are committed to preserving what we can – the food and flavor of Uyghur culture. We do so by serving our customers brilliant meals prepared in distinctive, central Asian style. From Hot chicken stew to Laghman , handmade noodles to handmade dumplings, every dish is prepared by our chef who thoroughly understands that delicious food is at the heart of traditional Uyghur life.
“Dolan” is the traditional name of the tribe of peoples who are today called Uyghurs. We have long inhabited this vast region of snow-capped mountains, winding rivers, blue-green lakes, lush oases, and scorching deserts.
We keep the original experience by freshly preparing every food item. Because to achieve the authentic taste, we must follow the characteristically strict principles of Uyghur foods'
Dolan is all about serving traditional meals “for those whom you love the most – those who appreciate it. My satisfaction is based upon their satisfaction.”
We are committed to preserving a wide variety of dishes that capture the unique flavors – and culture – of the Uyghur people. Come and taste for yourself, with your friends and family!
