    Mondays are pretty loud and busy but it was nice. I’ve had better experiences on less busy days. But I understand the rush!

    We celebrated our anniversary at ChopnBlok this week, and it did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. Every staff member was wearing a genuine smile for the duration of our visit. Super helpful, friendly, courteous and kind. I had the Black Star - the shrimp were cooked perfectly and that curry was divine. My husband had the Buka and ate every bite of that delicious short rib. We got there at the tail end of happy hour and enjoyed two delicious appetizers, too - the mini meat pies, and a selection of curries, plantains, and blok chicken. This cuisine is so unique and so flavorful, I cannot WAIT to return to try something new. The decor is beautiful and reflects the culture of the cuisine. Well done!
