| - I was visiting family in the area and I needed to get my sushi fix so I found Silk Road on yelp and headed over to try it out. I got a to-go order with a variety of things because there were so many things on the menu I wanted to try! The guy at the front of the house was so nice, and he was very personable with everyone that came in asking about their dog, business or the football tryout. Clearly the repeat business is solid (and for good reason) but I love a place that cares about its customers! The restaurant itself is attractively decorated and not at all what you'd expect in a strip mall! Now let's talk about the food!
Spicy Tuna Roll - I was reassured it wasn't actually spicy, which it isn't. It was SO GOOD, especially the sauce with just the right amount of crunch.
The Amazing Roll - Well what can you say except it's amazing! I see returning for some more in the near future!
Mango Heaven Roll - It was good but a little too overwhelming on the mango side for me, but if that's your thing, you'll love it.
I will definitely return because I still want to try the mummy roll, pink lady, complete chaos (one of my friends went the night after me and said they loved that one!) and of course the sexy model. For all the rolls, I liked the rice they used, plus everything was fresh and packed nicely.
Egg roll/Shanghai Roll - It was good, nothing to write home about. I preferred the Shanghai Roll.
Eight Pearl Duck - mouthwatering and delicious! Don't be deceived by the amount of veggies on top, there's A LOT of duck underneath and it's cooked perfectly. Also in the dish is shrimp, crab meat and scallops which you might not think go together but it works. Veggies were steamed and fresh.
Chef Wu's Lamb - This dish was a smaller portion size which I think is fine if you are going to be getting a sushi roll or another appetizer. It was cooked well but the real star of this dish was the sauce! So good.
Don't think about it, just go! You won't regret it!
