LTJ food service

China? Been there? North China?If you have ever gone to the orient, headed up north, and tasted their food, you will find it here. A carefree and easy place like this deserves all the stars it is given.When walking into Lao Tiajia it is an unassuming little spot. A collection of Chinese bottles covers the front window. Sit down, relax. To be honest the decor is far from spectacular. Vinyl covered tables abound. Need more room? They will just spring load it from underneath. If you have ever traveled to Northern China you will understand the essence of this place.At first I made the mistake of ordering fried rice. I was told that the specialty is Spicy Chicken Potato with wide Noodle." Several times I have been back after that suggestion. What you get is a large plate full off noddles to share. (If you are a fancy fanny fart then go away

I guess this place for those who have a taste for north Chinese food. I liked the pilaaf as thr lamb was very soft and juicy.. The much talked about lamb skewers were just ok. Wife summarized by saying that the place was ok ok types.. Her way of saying that it was just average. Staff was good and friendly. Its quite relaxing, if you have plenty of time,you would love this place. No paypas or card! But i just had to cross the street to Tab where I could withdraw cash without any charges.

We recommend this restaurant to everybody we know. Brilliant and unexpected. Get eight people together, give the restaurant a day's warning, and try the Deep Fried Lamb Leg. If you're in a hurry, try the deep fried lamb ribs.

beautiful food, extra ordinary kebabs, and the tea was really nice and light. The customer care and service was exceptional. Me and my friend were 45 minutes early, the owner still entertained us with a smile and wonderful food

Stir Fried Noodles with Chili, Chives & Lamb 5/5Stir Fried Black Fungus and Egg 5/5Traditional Nanh (Bread) with Braised Tender Lamb Ribs 5/5Tasty and hearty dishes prepared with love. The decor, warmth & hospitality and dishes felt like we were guests at the owner’s home. A proper family run restaurant that cooks and serves with passion and love. Pricing and portions are very reasonable too.

Very oily, very gameyThe presentation reminded me of dog food never going back.

Change of ownership in May 2018. Menu has slightly changed, we ordered the famous Lao Tjia Chicken Noodle spicy + lamb skewers, they were still as good.New business name: Tarim Diyari UyghurSpoke to the new owner briefly, they are authentic Uyghur Xin Jiang from Northern China.

One of the less known Uygur restaurant in Melbourne. The owner is very friendly and accommodating. The lamb kebab have the right flavour but too bad the meat is a little chewy. The salad is the star of the whole meal. It's packed a little spicy punch and refreshing at the same time!Food - 8Service - 10Vibe - 7Price - $$

Authentic Uyghur cuisine with quality dishes.It's like Turkish influenced Chinese food so quite different from usual Chinese.
