Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. Was there during lunch, not many people, it’s probably packed during dinner time as the decor, soft lighting and good quality of food should be a nice setting for some nice moment for couples, and suitable for families as well. Their lunch specials come with soup and salad, the fall off the bones lamb shank along with rice is outstanding. Green tea chai is no better than the regular ones I bought from supermarket though

Wow, this review has been long overdue!

I’ve been coming to Silk Road ever since I started my first corporate job in 2007 after college. Today, I drove an hour with my best friend because we were craving Afghan food that feels like it came straight from your mother or grandmother’s kitchen. The food here has soul—it nourishes your spirit and truly feels made with love. In today’s world, it’s hard to find places like this.

Silk Road has been part of this community for 21 years, and that speaks volumes about their quality and dedication! Every time I visit, the food is consistently nutritious, high-quality, and prepared with halal meat. And oh my goodness, the fresh carrot and orange juices can make your body sing!

If you live in the area and haven’t explored Silk Road yet, you’re missing out on an incredible culinary adventure filled with exciting new flavors. I highly recommend trying their weekday lunch specials, which are a fantastic way to sample some of their most popular dishes. Trust me; once you get a taste, you’ll want to come back for more!

Today, my friend and I ordered family-style to share several dishes: the Kabuli Palaw and the Naringe Palaw rice, which are nothing short of phenomenal. We also tried the Bholani Potato for appetizers, which are fried pastries filled with a mixture of potato and fresh Afghan spices.
The unique flavors—cardamom, saffron, fresh orange peels, almonds, and pistachios—are just a glimpse of what’s on the menu. The Murgi Kabob was cooked to perfection, and they offer various meat options that cater to different tastes.

I also tried the Okra, which was incredibly delicious, along with the dumplings in a mouth-watering tomato yogurt sauce. The homemade bread and sauces are truly unique, elevating the entire experience.

The service here is beyond amazing; you can really feel the kindness, warm-heartedness, and dedication from the entire staff. I highly recommend the chai and desserts—even if you just stop by for that, it’s worth it!

Lastly, I love how authentic and cozy the atmosphere is. You genuinely feel like you’re visiting a family home, where mom or grandma is cooking just for you. Places like this are rare, and the community is incredibly lucky to have such a special gem. The food is cooked from the heart, and the flavors embody that sentiment. You’ll find yourself leaving with a full belly and a happy heart!

We recently discovered Silk Road at 41 Mountain Boulevard, Warren, NJ 07059, and what a gem this place turned out to be! The food is absolutely delicious, with rich flavors and generous portions that left us fully satisfied. The interior is warm and inviting, creating a cozy and elegant atmosphere. Everything was beautifully presented, and the entire dining experience felt truly special.

It was an unexpected find, and we’re so happy we stumbled upon it. This place has now become one of our family’s favorite spots — we will definitely be coming back often. Special thanks to the owner for his genuine hospitality and the warm welcome. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Afghan cuisine!

I had an amazing dining experience at Silk Road! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The Shir Chai was rich and flavorful. The lentil soup was hearty and comforting, while the hummus was smooth, creamy, and paired perfectly with fresh bread.

For the main course, the jumbo shrimp was cooked to perfection, and both the Shammi Kabob and Ghusfan Kabob were incredibly tender and packed with delicious flavors. Every bite was a delight!

Food was so delicious and was rich with flavor and meat was tinder. We ordered the combo meal for 2, tea, and dessert.

I was disappointed that the food wasn’t as good as I was hoping. I was expecting rich, complicated flavor representative of the tapestry of culture that is the Silk Road. Especially with the prices on the menu ($70 for a platter for two). What I got was bland soup, just okay meat, rice that lacked any signature taste, boring hummus and falafel, a disgusting yogurt drink, fresh and tasty bread, and a flavorful salad. The service and atmosphere were good but I just felt like the food could have been better.

This family run Afghan restaurant is outstanding. Our personal favorites are the Chapli Kabob (ground beef and lamb) and Murgh Kofta Kabob (ground chicken). The meals are served with a lentil soup, tomato and cucumber salad, fresh bread, and your choice of rice. We also enjoy a side of the okra dish as well.

Each dish is a masterpiece of flavor, showcasing the rich traditions of Afghan cooking. The mantu and kabuli pulao were exceptional, bursting with authentic spices and aromas. The staff’s warm hospitality made the experience even more delightful. A must-visit for anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience.”
