Food is great, the garlic cucumber is definitely authentic which reminds me my mom's cooking. The cumin lamb is a little bit on the salty side so would be great if you have it with pancake or rice. Both dry fried noodles and dice noodles are very good. Would love to try the lamb BBQ next with the meat pancakes as well.

I like the authentic menu selection including some most representative Uyghur food. Service was very friendly. Overall food was okay and too salty for my liking. Generous portion. This is a casual spot. Kitchen is very close and you can smell everything (you may like it or not)

Silk Road has become our family's go-to spot whenever we're craving something special. We've lost count of the number of times we've dined here, but every visit feels like a new adventure.We have tried almost everything on the menu and it never disappoints. And guess what? Our kids are totally into it too! Sure, some dishes can pack a bit of heat, but just give the server a heads up.The place is limited in space and they do not take reservations so sometimes it feels like a bit of a squeeze. But hey, that's part of the charm, right? Just be prepared for a bit of a tight squeeze, especially if you're rolling in with a big crew.Overall, Silk Road gets a big thumbs up from us. Whether you're a die-hard fan of Uyghur food or just looking for a fun family outing, this place won't disappoint.

Authentic Uyghur cuisine with great taste and service, highly recommend!
I assume and hope this restaurant might be under new management, but years ago I ordered a dinner and the attendant looked at me coldly, went into the kitchen, spoke to someone and gave me the take out order in a bag. Once I got home at 15 Lambert Street, I noticed the food consisted ofa few bits of minced meat in overcooked noodles. It tasted like canned food, so I threw it away. I wasted $13. I should have went back and asked for a refund. Each time I pass the restaurant on my way home, I think of what happened. I wondered if I was treated like that because I am African American and Muslim.

The restaurant offers a pleasant atmosphere, and I particularly enjoyed their specialty, laghman, which was undoubtedly the highlight of the meal. However, I found the chicken dish to be excessively spicy and salty, making it challenging to consume. Additionally, while the pilav was decent, it didn't quite meet my expectations in terms of flavor. Overall, while there were some hits and misses, the standout dish of laghman made the dining experience worthwhile.

A bit inconsistent. Sometimes these noodles hit, and other times they don't. Options outside of their main attraction are also good but not as good as their classic dry noodles. Hopefully you catch them on a good day.

Delicious food. I would even say they put too much meat (no such thing!). Try it out if you are looking for something different. The spicy sauce reminded me of mala sauce mixed with Indian spices. It's an interesting flavor I hadn't had before. Recommended!

Very unpalatable! !The stir-fried noodles were so salty that I threw them away after two bites.The noodles are not handmade, they look like instant noodles that have been soaked for a long time.
