    Maybe I had high expectations of this place but being one of high rated restaurants i was super excited to try this place. Having lived in Alhambra, I have gone to the previous place in the same place. They had great noodles ans wonton. Boy do I miss that place. Circling back here, we ordered mapo tofu, chicken kababs,, a uyghur naan, and a pulled noodle dish. The spice levels here is nice and the portions are okay. I didn't think the map tofu was a must get. It tastes different than your traditional Chinese version and yet it has heat like the szechuan peppercorns. It came lukewarm like the rest of the dishes. The only server in the restaurant never came back to check on us the whole hour we were there. So we never had refills on water. The best things here were the naan and the hand pulled noodles. Perhaps I would just get those togo if I ever wanted this place again.

    Finally made it to Dolan's! A homey experience with friendly staff! My first time trying Uyghur cuisine and likely won't be my last! For the two of us, we ordered 3 of their most popular items. + Big Plate Chicken - the small is BIG haha. We chose the bone-in and the chicken was juicy. It is a very savory flavor so the handmade noodles are a must (I wish there was more). + Lamb Kebabs - the menu says a minimum order 3, but they were kind enough to just let us get 2. A large stick, and very lightly seasoned but cooked well. + Uyghur Goshnaan - My favorite dish, like a meat pie. The crust was flakey and the inside meat was juicy and flavorful.

    Came with a bunch of friends and got a little bit of everything. The dishes at this place are so big so everything is very shareable. Service was nice and friendly and there is parking in the lot or in the neighborhood streets. If you park in the neighborhood streets you can also enter through the back entrance. Their spice level is pretty spicy so would recommend mild or medium. The noodle plate is always a favorite of ours. Even if you can't finish, the orders are just as good the next day as well. Highly recommend this place.

    Dolan is a good choice for lunch or dinner. Their menu features beef, lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes. I liked the decor with art displayed throughout the main dining room. It gives the restaurant a classy look. The table and chairs were made of mahogany, they use linen tablecloths which is an added touch of elegance. I ordered the beef hand-pulled noodles, which was flavorful and had a spicy kick. It was delicious and filling. I was dining solo, but recommend coming with a group to try a variety of food. I really was interested in the Kebab and soups, but it was too much food for one person. The entree prices range from $15 to $20 for lunch and $30-50 for dinner. You can pre-order meals on their website for quick pickup or delivery service. They also have a nice patio dining area and a private parking lot in the back. Sincerely, Rosemary

    Love the deep, rich flavors at this place. it really sparked my interest in learning more about Uyghur culture. We came with a large group, and the waiter was attentive and provided quick service. Fried Naan with Beef - Crispy naan topped with beef, onions, and cumin. It was a bit oily and felt more like a side dish, but extremely tasty. The onions and crumbs paired especially well with rice. 8/10 Large Big Plate Chicken - Our server recommended ordering the large size for the group. It was just OK. The flavors were lacking compared to the other dishes, the chicken wasn't as juicy or tender as I hoped, and it came with thick flat noodles and quite a lot of potatoes. 7/10 Lamb Kebabs - Tender, flavorful lamb served on hot skewers. Simple and delicious. 10/10 Uyghur Polo with Lamb - A lighter rice dish that was still full of flavor. The rice paired beautifully with the lamb. 8/10 Samsas - Flaky pastries filled with beef. They reminded me of a mix between empanadas and samosas--very satisfying. 9/10 We also ordered the special tea served in a pot. It was very enjoyable and the perfect hot drink to balance out the heavier, richer dishes. Overall, a flavorful and memorable dining experience.

    Ambiance is unique and authentic feel. Clean and nice layout Service is great, and I like the tea pot set! Food was ok to me, not as strong flavor as I expected, it might be adjusted to fits the taste of American for sure! I nit sure if it's because we didn't ordered right stuff, lamb skewers, 手抓饭(Pilaf), big plate Chicken fried noodle

    Traditional laghman

    I liked it. Came in for dinner with a friend. Inside is bright and comfortable. Lightly decorated. Plenty of tables. Good for small groups. We got the traditional laghman noodles, gosh nan, and lamb kabobs. The kabobs were good. We liked the noodles and gosh nan, but we both agreed it could have used some extra spice for our taste. Would come back to try more. Service was good. Friendly staff. Small parking lot in back.

    We came here because we enjoyed the Rowland Heights location and wanted to give the Alhambra one a try. First off, it's a simply beautiful restaurant, very stylish overall. In terms of service, it was just okay. We never had our water refilled, nor did we get any check-ins after the food was ordered and dropped off. The food itself was also just alright at best; it didn't hit the same as the other location. Here's what I tried: Fried Naan with Beef - Interesting dish, almost like a fried baguette loaded with cumin. The beef was good, but the flavors quickly became overbearing and too strong for my taste. Very carb-heavy. (3.5/5) Spicy Fried Rice Noodle - Looked great at first but also became overwhelming. The sauce was extremely salty, and I usually love salty food, but this was too much. The noodles themselves were good, though. (3.5/5) Lamb Kebab - My favorite dish of the night. I didn't love that you have to order a minimum of three skewers, but the flavor was great. Be warned: the metal skewers are hot. (4.5/5) Overall, we were disappointed with what we got. We paid $52 for what I'd consider pretty average-tasting food, and unfortunately, I don't think I'd come back, at least not to this location.

    Some of the best quality noodles in SGV can be found here. The big plate chicken dish here is just decent as the chicken was okay, sauce was okay, and the potatoes didn't have that stir-fried flavor and I've had better renditions of this dish in Chinatown Manhattan/Flushing. However, the wide firm noodles in this had the perfect texture and are some of the best noodles I've ever had. I also loved the noodles in the Special Laghman Noodles and the flavor in this reminded me of that of a liang pi dish. The lamb kebabs here are decent but don't beat the ones at some of the kebab-focused restaurants in LA.

    Such a charming and cozy place with great vibes from the decor to the music. Service was quick, friendly, and no nonsense. The food was the true star of the show. Every dish was on point and amazingly delicious. You must try the polo and the salted milk tea.

    Visited: December 2025. Monday ~6:30pm. Setting: Spacious. Traditional decor and looks classier than your average restaurant. The tables are covered with disposable paper to protect the cloth underneath. They play Uyghur music at a reasonable volume so you can still have a conversation while listening. Wait Time: None. A few tables were taken when I arrived, but I was seated immediately. Food/Drink: This was my first time trying Uyghur cuisine. I cheated by picking things sort of familiar to me. The portions were generous. - Mapo Tofu ($13.95): Served HOT and with the right amount of numbing spice. It was just what I expected! - Tomato Eggs Laghman ($14.95): My first time having laghman. It had quite a chewy texture which I grew to like. The tomato egg sauce was perfectly sweet and tangy and the tomato and egg pieces were conveniently cut into bite sizes. - Plain Rice ($2.75): A bowl of long-grain rice. Pretty big scoop! Service: Awesome! The waiter was so polite and quick despite being the only one manning the front. I noticed after ordering with him that you can also order by scanning a QR code. That might come in handy when it's crowded. Also, my 2 to-go containers toppled over in the car and not a drop of sauce spilled out. Nice and sturdy. Parking: There are parking lots to the left and right of the restaurant. There were ample spots in the bigger lot (left) at dinner time. Next Time: I'll come back to try the Shredded Potato and Samsa dishes.

    I recently learned about an Uzbek restaurant. Apparently there are not many Uzbek cuisine we can find in California. Uyghur food is a fusion mixture of Turkey/Mainland Chinese cuisine. Restaurant has limited parking but plenty of free street parking. There is indoor/outdoor seating. Entire restaurant is ornately decorated in Uyghur pieces. I saw only male employees but I hear that women in this culture cannot speak up. Overall great service. Dinner also comes with complimentary middle eastern walnut desert bites. Food....Big plate chicken is a must try (we ordered 2) a dish marinated to the highest max with potatoes and veggies. This is everyone's favorite. -Uyghur Goshnaan is crispy outside and warm meat savory center. Very good as well -Dolan's special rose tea is a must try. -Manta- 6 Pieces Per Order. Delicious Steamed Dumplings filled with savory ground beef and onion. (this is a popular item). -Kebab noodle- Cold egg noodles paired with our special spicy dressing and beef kebab. Pretty carby if you like -2nd fav- Big plate chicken with extra fat noodles. All the best marinated spices and flavors with savory soft chicken.

    Special Laghman was really good! Mild on the spice and delicious. Friendly service and they offered up great recommendations since it was our first time here. Would recommend to anyone in the area to come by!

    Ask the Community - Dolan's

    What are the hours for brunch?

    They open at 11:00 AM so go then. It may be best to call the restaurant and verify Brunch hours.

    Is this restaurant halal certified?

    As of May 9, 2021 do they still have outdoor dining and how many tables do they have?

    Yes. 12

    How many people does each outdoor table seat and about how many tables do they have? I might need a lot of tables for a large group.

    Same owners as Omars on new? Very similar menu, looks great nonetheless!

    Different owners. I went once to Dolans and very good food and service. We will be back

    Is this eatery own by an irishman?

    This is probably my favorite question of any restaurant because of how bizarre it is.

    Why is it called Dolan's?

    It's a region name

    Do you have white steamed rice?

    Yes they do.

My crew and I went on a Friday night, and even though it was very busy, we were seated fairly quickly. There were four of us, and here's what we ordered: chicken fried rice, Shanghai-style chow mein, sweet and sour chicken, and juicy pork dumplings. Chicken Fried Rice: It was soft and pillowy with great flavor, though I felt it could have used a bit more color. It looked a little pale, but it was still delicious. Shanghai-Style Chow Mein: This was perfect. The flavor was spot on, the sauce was well-balanced, and the noodles had the ideal texture. The ratio of noodles, vegetables, and meat was just right. Sweet and Sour Chicken: This was the highlight for me. My only regret is not ordering more to take home. The chicken was crispy without being overdone, and it was coated in that delicious sweet and sour sauce. Juicy Pork Dumplings: We were at a dumpling house, so we had to order dumplings. These did not disappoint. They were very flavorful, and the broth inside was rich and satisfying. We originally planned to order more dishes, but the portions were generous, and we ended up with just the right amount to leave satisfied. Overall, this place lives up to the hype.

Service is quick and polite and happy with the level of attention to ensure we were all set to dine! Around dinner time had no wait The inside is full of bright red and complimented with black which made it more lively and modern. New spot to enjoy more frequent!

    Strictly speaking the food it's probably 4 stars but then I really can't say anything bad about…read morewhat I ate. It's not fancy so nothing knocked me off feet but that's what you'd expect from Hong Kong Cafe. The food is decent but the vibe is amazingly cool that is reminiscant of HK cafes that used to litter everywhere in the Monterey Park Alhambra park before the recent "mainland" restaurant invasion. :). I love the restaurant itself and the service is impeccable and efficient just as what you'd expect from HK. The place is very clean with a lot of cool neon lights and signs hanging everywhere. There is even a Bumblebee. The place opens late which is great and reminds me of my time when I were in college. The food is delicious even though it's not fancy food. I wish there is one near my place in NorCal.

    Bright LED signs hanging above to give you a feel of dining in Hong Kong! It stays open LATE LATE…read morenight to the point where you can come after concerts or sport games! Dare I say, this is my favorite cafe ever. Whenever my friends come over, I will always bring them here to enjoy a Hong Kong style cafe. This location specifically is located in Atlantic Times Square with plenty of underground parking available. It will get busy at times but the last level always has some parking available. The only downside about this plaza is that the elevators take forever to go up and down and certain staircases offered aren't maintained and will lead you to the outside trash can area and will have you walking around to try and find the hallway that leads to the plaza. My family and I came on a Thursday early-ish dinner around 6pm and there were a few tables available for us to sit at. You're greeted with a lot of Hong Kong staples, MTR signs, train station signs, the milk tea cart, and plenty more. There are plenty options for delicious food in their menu that cater different cravings. We got 4 different dishes and 2 drinks and the total came out to be $91 after tax and tips! Food: Sweet and Sour Sole Fish (8.2/10): This was my favorite dish growing up so there is some bias around my opinion. It's fried sole fish that's drenched in a sweet and sour sauce that has vegetables in it. If you've had sweet and sour pork, they use the same sauce but instead of pork, it's sole fish. There's a perfect amount of sauce on top and you won't run out before you finish your dish. Salted Chicken Wings and Squid (8/10): This one is an appetizer! It comes with 4 chicken wings and a lot of fried squid and garnished with peppers and green onions. I love that the fried squid isn't drenched in the batter and adds a nice thin crispy layer on top of the squid. The chicken wing does have a little bit of pinkness in the bones but it was perfectly cooked with juicy chicken and crispy skin! Ground Meat and Egg Rice (8/10): There's an over-easy egg on top of the rice and you break it so the yolk bleeds in and you have chunks of egg white mixed into the rice. It's ground meat, furikake(I think?), grilled onions, and white rice! There's a sauce In the ground meat but I'm not sure how to describe it but it tastes amazing. You definitely need to mix everything together until it's well combined. Grilled Chicken Steak w/ Mushroom Sauce (8/10): This is a staple to cafes (at least in my family and extended family)! It's a chicken breast pan fried to have a crispy skin and you dip it into a sauce of your choice! We usually get the mushroom sauce because it compliments the juicy chicken well. It's not a liquid-y sauce but more of a thicker creamy sauce. It also comes with a side of broccoli and corn so it doesn't feel as heavy. The carbs that come with the dish is either white rice or spaghetti.
