Authentic Uyghur food. Very good taste and lots of options on their menu. They’ve been trying new dishes. Highly recommended if you want to try more different types of Uyghur food.
This is such a wonderful addition to the halal food scene in Boston! This restaurant is tucked away, in a small Asian food court, and is a hidden gem! The food portions are large, and each entree is fresh and packed with a bunch of flavor (and “spicy” is actually spicy here, haha).We ordered the Spicy Beef Noodles, Samsa, and Chicken entrees and they were wonderful! We will definitely be coming back soon!!!

Exceptional soul destroying spice. Narrow menu where every item is carefully curated exceptional.

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.

I love the Uyghur goyro lagman very authentic food tasty and
Amazing restaurant specially with the uniqueness and delicious "halal" (clean pure healthy food tradition experience there!) Meet Mr. Noory (I think he is Manager?) who has been veey generous. He is also very patiently explain each characters of food there which I have never experienced before. The price is also not too pricey...But the quality is like five diamond restaurant?????❤️❤️❤️ I was grateful when I visited during the snow. So I can explore more of their amazing delicious festive experience!!!
Naan (馕) and samosa (烤包子) are nothing like we had in Urumqi (乌鲁木齐). The noodles part of Laghman (过油肉拌面) is ok but the meat is dry and tasteless. Uyghur Pilaf (抓饭) checks all the boxes as far as the ingredients are concerned but again the lamb bits are a bit dry. The restaurant is small but clean and there are plenty of street parkings nearby. The staff don't speak Chinese but you are presented with a bilingual menu when scan to order.

I've been meaning to go to Silk Road Uyghur Cuisine for quite some time, given it's in my neighborhood! It's a pretty small spot, with just a few tables, so I think most people do takeout. To see the menu, there's a barcode on the table, and then you order with your phone. At the end of your meal, you pay at the front counter. In terms of food, we ordered the Meat Naan and Dry Fried Noodle. The Meat Naan was quite heavy, but absolutely delicious. I'd recommend splitting it, but even then, you'll probably have leftovers. The Dried Fried Noodle was the star of the show. It had a spicy sauce that was addicting! I just wish there was a bit more meat in the dish. I hope to come back again soon!

A quiet, small spot in East Cambridge with pretty unique cuisine. The service is quick, and instead of waitstaff, there is a chowbus QR code at each table to order your meal, which seems to be pretty popular in Chinese restaurants nowadays. Food was overall pretty delicious - I think the spices were milder than expected. "Samosas": were flaky on the outside, nice meat filling on the inside, pretty delicious. "Medium" plate Chicken: noodles were too soft and I kept getting shards of chicken bones (which told me the meat was not handled super well), but the flavor was ok, and the chicken was tender and juicy. Potatoes were at varying level of doneness but still cooked through. I liked how there were different sizes for this dish. Cumin Lamb - large, fatty pieces of lamb were cooked well, with a gently crisp exterior and a tender bite. This dish went really well with rice, but is not overly salty as other places make it.
