    Very cute and clean place with a lot of parking and nice staff. I ordered hot honey chicken bowl. This bowl has 2 different sauces and a salad dressing so I was a little concerned that all of these flavors would clash however, it was pretty good. This dish is quite spicy. As I was watching her prepare my power green I realized it's 90% green apple, I think 6 or 7 apples went into my 16 oz drink I took my order to go and unfortunately didn't get utensils in my bag.

    The salads here are wonderful and the veggie bowls are absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. It was a satisfying and healthy meal that really hit the spot. Great food, great flavors!

    Today I had one of the original chopshop bowls for the first time and it was SO good!! The jalapeño cream was the cherry on top for me. Really nice setting too, it was perfect for our book club. Even with it being busy, they were fast with service and the acoustics weren't making it hard to hear our table. Just make sure you don't miss the turn in since it's tucked in further back off the street!

    My husband and I have been coming here for the last month and we've been really happy with the service and the food! We always get the same smoothies and hummus or chicken bowls. The staff is friendly and the restaurant is always so clean and welcoming. I love that they have an outdoor patio that dog is friendly. Our favorite smoothie had been the Berry Boost. 10/10. Looking forward to trying other menu items.

    Not gonna lie.. I think I'm in love with this place. My only gripe is that it's so far from me as the east side dweller.. actually I lied. I also wish that they had more drink options, as i walked around, looking at all the drinks and didn't find any that looked great to me. I got a fountain drink originally, but after trying the teas, I was not a fan (just not a tea drinker). Anyway, everything else was great from the customer service, to the portion of food, and the taste of the food as well! The Korean bowl had a great spice to it in flavor. My husband got it with sweet potatoes and brown rice. The curry bowl was cool, I do wish I could detect the cilantro a bit more, but still, it was good. I got it with greens and brown rice. The Thai salad was huge and also very good. I definitely want to go back and try more of their menu. It all seems very fresh and on the healthier side, which I can appreciate..

    I was so excited when they opened a location here in Tucson- my husband loved the OG Chop when we lived in Phoenix. Super healthy and hearty menu with a huge variety! Options for proteins include chicken and steak as well as tofu and shrimp. You can even get the salads on a whole wheat or GF wrap (I'm a sucker for the Beet salad wrap - it's my inner Dwight)! The protein bowls are massive and the options for vegetables and starches are plentiful- big thumbs up for the sweet potato or jasmine rice in a bowl. Staff are always super kind and make sure to plug in your phone number for those rewards points through the app! They add up fast. The dog friendly patio is amazing most of the year and the inside is spacious and always clean. They offer take out and delivery through services as well.

    What a cute little lunch spot. We decided on this place for a healthier and fresh option based on their menu. Upon entering, we had to put our orders on a large touch pad screen. It's always awkward when there's no human to take our order. It was a bit difficult too, since we've never been there. We couldn't find out how to build your own bowl. There was a person waiting and we were rushed so we chose the Korean Steak. I got rice and lettuce with mine and my husband got sweet potatoes and salad. We grabbed our table number and found a table. We sat in a corner and waited in a very clean and cute dining area. Our waitress brought our food about 20-15 minutes later. First impression: so small! Cost was around $14 for a bowl and we just expected a bigger portion. The steak was really good and. Wished I had more. I ate all the steak and mixed greens but didn't finish the rice. Overall, it was good and we are glad we went but we left still hungry. Next time we can order a make your own bowl do we can load it up and it will be more satisfying.

    Amazing food! Got the hot honey chicken bowl with rice and salad topped with extra steak protein! Amazing! Great flavor and great service. Enjoyed the healthier option and sitting outside on the patio. Cute little yellow chairs can brighten anyone's day.

    I normally don't get very excited over salad restaurants but the OG ChopShop definitely exceeded expectations. I noted a few dishes that could be made vegan but opted to try the menu item that was offered fully plant based. The Thai salad was a nice combo of crunchy, creamy, savory, spicy, and sweet ingredients. It was also the perfect size for a lunch. I also tried the Cold Blast juice, which tasted like fresh OJ with a little turmeric and ginger. Would definitely come back again and order the same thing!

    I already knew I was going to like this place. I'm a sucker for anything bowl! I had been to Scottsdale location a while ago when I was just visiting AZ. Ordered hot honey chicken bowl and it actually was better than I expected! The only complaint is I wish they put a little more hummus. But overall this bowl was well balanced and portion was just perfect! Please open another location in SW Tucson!

    For a casual sit down place, this place provides so many healthy delicious options. There are also great take out options as well. I ordered their chili shrimp protein bowel which was 9/10 especially with the options to add forbidden rice which improves almost any dish and has great nutritional benefits. Service was great; very friendly staff

    Scottsdale Cobb w/ Steak

    Had the Scottsdale Cobb with steak -- fantastic! The steak was seasoned and grilled perfectly, tender and full of flavor, which complemented the salad well. Everything tasted fresh, and the cilantro lime ranch dressing added that extra pizzazz. Quick, clean, and satisfying lunch spot.

    Well...I like this place but this teriyaki chicken bowl wasn't it! The Teriyaki was different, too tangy.. I had a vegetable base: broccoli, onion & carrots. I added a sweet potato hash and mushrooms (.50) and Shrimp ($3). They gave me six shrimp! Wow that's not enough but whatever, the avocado was def only a sliver as well. DIABOLICAL. I ordered on the kiosk so not much customer service there, I grabbed a number and sat and waited about 7-10 minutes for my bowl. It's a place, AC blowing and windows all around so a lot of light flowing in. I wouldn't get this bowl again though.

For the portions though, I would say the price is a little on the higher end. To finish my friend got a tahini brownie on the way out and we found it to be very pleasant and not overly sweet. I would love to try their coffees and teas!

It's a very casual place staffed by kind and welcoming students, and the food is genuinely good. The Smoked Salmon Beni stood out in the reviews, and it did not disappoint when I finally got to try it. I'll be attaching a photo, but it tasted every bit as good as it looked. I also noticed the shaved steak sandwich on the menu and in several Yelp photos, so I'll definitely have to come back and try that next. I really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, friendly service and overall character of the place.

    These Pastries Should Probably Be Illegal…read more Prep & Pastry has been serving Tucson since 2014, and after eating here, I completely understand why they've built such a loyal following. This review is only about the pastries because the rest of their menu deserves an entirely separate review. The first thing I noticed was how incredibly light and airy everything was. Every bite felt fresh, fluffy, and perfectly balanced. The frosting wasn't overly sweet, and nothing tasted heavy or overwhelming. As I've gotten older, I've become much more conscious about what I eat. Surprisingly, these pastries never leave me with that "I shouldn't have done that" feeling. They're indulgent without being excessive. Now let's address the real issue... I always buy two. Not because I'm planning ahead. Because I know exactly what's going to happen if I don't. I'll eat one in the parking lot, sit there for a minute pretending I'm satisfied, then make what is almost certainly an illegal U-turn and head back inside for another. At this point, I believe the owners should stand trial in a savory Food Court of Law. Dun... Dun... "In the Criminal Food Justice System, pastry-based crimes are considered especially delicious. In Tucson, the dedicated foodies who investigate these sugary felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Pastry Unit. These are their stories." Prep & Pastry is guilty of making "I'll just have one" the biggest lie you'll tell yourself all week. Whether you're stopping by for breakfast, brunch, or simply because life is better with a great pastry, this place delivers. WIT Inspection Score: -- Truly Among the Best.

(well once in taste, but I'll get to that) They have great in-house made items. Like the Challa bread, the preserves, their pesto. They most certainly know what they're doing. I had unseasoned filet mignon once, I believe it was the omelette. I talked to the manager. Now I wasnt upset, didn't send it back, I just told them what I experienced and mused that I found it odd the cook forgot a simple thing like salt. The manager acknowledged my complaint and that was all; or at least I was fine. Nope, she came back with a to-go box of croissants topped with cream and berries as an apology. They were tremendous by the way. She didn't have to do that. The ambiance is it's only weak point, but even that is minor. Simple black is fine. It's modern feeling and doesn't stand out loudly. They have outdoor seating, which early in the morning is fine, but id avoid in the summer, which will likely mean you'll be waiting, depending on the time. Oh! I forgot to mention, they have very good drinks. They really are intentional about the blend of flavors, they have a little something for everyone. All in all, I cannot recommend this place enough.
