“They did a great job with decorating the place. Although the spicy chicken and fried rice are different than what we remember back in the day 30+ years ago, still tastes very good in its own way. I love the sweet and sour chicken...it tastes like Tangsuyuk sauce. We'll be back.”
“There's really nothing like Spicy Chicken from Silk Road!”
“Second time I've brought friends here for sushi. Magnificent twice. Very lucky to have "Sam" as our server both times. Hidden gem. Go find it.”
“Delicious food! I went with the pepper steak and spicy chicken combo with chicken fried rice, Will be back 👍”
“A modern take on take out Chop Suey? Serve food in styrofoam containers. Has a wine and coffee bar without any info on the menu. Happy hour sign on the window...”
“Who ever made the rice today shouldn’t be allowed to make it anymore. Very mushy. Beef and broccoli by itself was okay, a little sweet. Egg drop soup is also not suppose to have all that extra stuff. Egg rolls were 10/10 It’s pretty in there tho, good music and great service.”
“I finally had a chance to try Silk Road of Chicago, and it definitely lived up to my expectations. The food was fresh, well-seasoned, and had a great balance of flavors that made every bite enjoyable. The atmosphere was cozy, and the staff were welcoming and happy to answer questions about the menu. Service was quick even though the restaurant was fairly busy. I'd definitely come back to try more dishes the next time I'm in the area.”
“Silk Road of Chicago was a solid grab for a quick lunch in the Loop. Went around 12:30 and got the hand-pulled beef noodle bowl, pork dumplings, and a jasmine iced tea. Noodles had that nice chew and the broth was super comforting, hit just right on a windy Chicago day. Watching them work the open kitchen was a nice touch too. Fast, filling, and no drama—definitely coming back again.”
“Love the Chicken Veggie and Spicy Chicken. Nice, new location.”
“Delicious!!! Great service Siempre lo vistare en el downtown de Chicago”
