Highly recommend. We order from here all the time. Our favs are Plov, Galubtzi, Khonim, Manti, Samsa...all incredible. It tastes like tradition and homemade goodness, like someone is sharing their family recipes with you. Compliments to the chef 🤌🏻 Albeit the restaurant is 7-8 miles away the food delivery arrives warm or even piping hot depending on the item. So everything is made very fresh. It takes time to prepare all these delicious meals, so I can see the kitchen needing the time but it's worth it. I also appreciate the way they package everything up. Minimal amount of plastic and almost everything is recyclable.

Everything we tried at Silk Road Choyhona tasted amazing. The manti and plov were especially delicious—full of flavor and perfectly prepared. You can really tell the food is made with care and attention to detail. Big portions too! Come hungry!! The atmosphere was just as great as the food—warm, welcoming, and perfect for a relaxed meal. Overall, a wonderful dining experience, and we’ll definitely be back!

If you are craving authentic Central Asian comfort food, Silk Road Choyhona is the real deal. We came specifically for a few staples and they did not disappoint: ​Samsa: Perfectly flaky, golden crust with a juicy, well-seasoned meat filling. You can tell these are baked properly—they have that incredible traditional aroma. ​Kebab: We tried the lamb and beef, and both were tender and smoky. They clearly use high-quality cuts, and the char from the grill adds that perfect 'street-side' authenticity. ​Lagman: This was the star for me. The noodles had that distinct, bouncy pull that only comes from being hand-pulled. The broth was rich, savory, and loaded with fresh vegetables and tender meat. ​The atmosphere is warm and the service is attentive without being overbearing. It’s the kind of place that feels like a home-cooked meal in the best way possible. Definitely coming back to try the Plov next!
