In town on business. Opted for the chicken kabob tonight. Came with a salad, rice, and hummus. It was all good. The hummus was my favorite. Falafel and stuffed grape leaves for an appetizer. The atmosphere is casual and the service friendly. I had fun looking at the wall murals. Someone had a very good sense of humor.

Had another great experience at the Silk Road . The friendly service from the moment you step inside their doors sets the tone. Our greeter/server Aberto Gabino makes you feel welcome immediately . We started with a appetizer rhe Combination Platter with four different selections( dolmas, hummus, tabbouleh & babaghanoosh) that could have satisfied 4 people served with their special bread. Just use your bread as your utensil . The fall off the bone lamb shank was so deilicious with great mashotatoes and fresh veggies served with a great sauce reduction. The rack of lamb was wonderful , cooked perfectly as asked , also served with those great mashed potatoes and veggies. Very generous servings . We sat at a table for two but having a bottle of wine Gabino placed two tables together to accomodate our wine cooler . I was having trouble with my iphone and the owners brother solved my problem , thank you . I don't know his name but was very friendly , actually on each of my visits the owners have been extremely kind and gracious. They go out of their way to make you feel like you are visiting their home for dinner. Our dessert was delicious baklava ( 2 pieces) , i was full but my dining companion ate one and we decided to take one piece home and when Gabino returned with a takeout box he had placed an additional baklava in . This is excepional service that comes from owners who place customers first . Besides they have a "all day" happy hour . Who does that !!! They have great cocktails and a happy hour menu ! We definitely look forward to future visits !

We stopped by for lunch and were offered the regular dinner menu. Had to ask for the lunch menu - pretty beat up menus!Ordered some appetizers. Came quickly. Then we ordered kabobs for entrees. The waitress came back wanting to know whether we wanted 2 skewers as per lunch menu or 1 as per the dinner menu. We tried to convince her that it was the other way round, but she insisted! Ok. We want the lunch portion. She came back sheepishly to say no we were right. The kobideh ground beef kabobs were awesome. Chicken and fish were ok. Too much rice for single skewer. The menu had the option of roasted tomato or salad but the waitress never asked about that. Little pricey for single skewer: $12.95 for beef and chicken and more for fish.
