The old automobile sign decor, milkshake bar, open kitchen concept and friendly staff, left a memorable impression. Big shout out to the couple, the hostess sat me with at the milkshake section of restaurant, and Lindsey one of the owners, for taking care of us. The food was plated to perfection, tasted amazing and the side salad, beyond anyone wildest dream of wow for a diner. Great portions of food, went with the sandwich special for the day. Lindsey, was engaging, great multi tasker and definitely shake master. She had to have done quite a few shakes as I watched and waited for my food. If your looking for milkshakes, burgers, prime rib, be sure to check Chop Shop out.

Went with the burger after seeing others come out from the kitchen. It was flavorful and the toppings were tasty. The fries were good, too. They don't have alcohol yet (a cold beer would've made this a perfect lunch) but the iced tea was a close second. The staff were very friendly and I liked the decor. Definitely coming back.

The girls were happy without complaint, they had pancakes and stuffed French toast, but it was too much for their tiny stomachs and needed boxes. Overall, the flow from seated to exit has some delay which is possibly due to the attention of the staff to their guests. Maybe it's the lack of motivation? I don't know. FYI: The more tables you quickly change; the more money you make. So, if they master the table exchange so people aren't literally left in the cold outside waiting to be seated, I'd go back, but if not, I can make breakfast at home.

I came here with a large party for a recent family reunion, and everything was only just okay. Our standout impression was our server - she handled us all single-handedly and ensured we all had everything we needed. She was phenomenal. Unfortunately, the food is just fine and the interior isn't very interesting at all. Dirty, dingy, outdated. I ordered their French Sandwich, which was interesting. The dressing they used, which I asked on the side to dip my fries in, was the most exciting part. Tangy, garlicky, slightly spicy (not really) contrary to my uncle's spice tolerance. Everyone else's food looked passable, but nobody pointed out anything they particularly enjoyed. A warning, their large salads are HUGE - think the size of the salad bowl they give you at Olive Garden. The bread they give is plain, with butter in single-serve containers. Not much to write home about, am I missing something?

This is not a high-rent location on a gentrified main street, and many folks would drive right by based on appearances. It also wasn't very busy, and that's a shame, because Tewada is absolutely fantastic. We were met by two very down-to-earth ladies enjoying a smoke break out front, and we knew right away that they were going to take good care of us. Our server was a sweetheart and a real character...we love to meet people like her. The place is not big, but it's well-worn and very cozy, and also super festive with all of the cute Easter decorations. We started with an order of fried dumplings, and they were very tasty, presented with care, and were obviously homemade. My wife then ordered a boba tea that she really enjoyed. For entrees we both went with a curry dish. My wife ordered the red curry noodles with shrimp, and she was very happy. She is not big on spicey food and went with the lowest level of spice - she chose 3 on the (kind of odd) 3-10 scale. Although it did have a small kick to it, you should not be scared if you too don't like hot and spicy food. I picked the massaman curry with chicken at 7 on the spice scale. I can't say enough about how much I liked the dish...fantastic! And speaking as someone who does like spicy food, a 7 is about as much as I would recommend for the typical American pallet. It was HOT, but still flavorful and enjoyable. Is this place fancy? No. However, the food was authentic, homemade, and not something you'll find very often. We watched as several locals came in for take-out or just boba for the kids, and it was clear from the long conversations that this place is valued in the community. We left with a smile, talked about it all afternoon, and will definitely be back. A solid 5!

The restaurant was only about 50% full, so it didn't seem overly busy. We were seated in the back and ordered drinks, appetizers, and entrees within about five minutes. Our waitress was incredibly nice and attentive -- she was quick with our first two rounds of refills and had a great attitude the entire night. Unfortunately, the timing of the food really hurt the experience. Our appetizers didn't come out until about 45 minutes after ordering, and our entrees arrived an hour and a half after we were seated. By the time our dinners came out, we were the last table left in the restaurant. To make things more frustrating, the meals were brought out in two separate rounds about 10 minutes apart. When the second round finally came, we ended up asking for boxes and the check right away. The food itself was absolutely delicious, and our waitress did everything she could to take care of us. That's why we're giving 3 stars. But waiting an hour and a half for dinner -- especially when the restaurant wasn't very busy -- is just not acceptable. We'd consider giving it another try, but only if the kitchen timing improves.

We all got the cod dishes with the potatoes and green beans along with their salad and I think my mom had the soup. The only thing I would like if there were more gluten free options like if I wanted a sandwich, I could get one. Besides the cauliflower crust pizza and the cod, the options for gluten free are limited. Also the bread on the table, oh how I miss bread but if you're gluten free, there is no bread for you. I wasn't hungry after my meal but I was surprised they offered a gluten free dessert because a lot of places don't. The service was lovely as well. I am surprised we were placed in the front compared to the back but it seemed rather loud in the back room with the larger parties. They do have a lot of wine but we didn't try any and their prices seemed fair.
