"We’re big fans of ChòpnBlọk downtown because of their fast-casual bowls flying out of the food stall. And this Montrose location is like an expansion pack of the first concept, with the same bowls making appearances, and some added newcomers. Like the Black Star Bowl, packed with grilled shrimp laced in a peanut-based dry rub and a delicious waakye fried rice with enough smokiness, we were considering it for our BBQ guide. The inside of this spot is still as vibrant—every corner filled with bright kente patterns, decorative calabash draped in cowrie shells, and artwork by West African artists. It makes sense why everyone is finding excuses to extend their date at the bar with plantain bread pudding or order another round of suya to split with their friends." - Gianni Greene

This was a great experience. I am West African and I’ve had West African food all my life, along with many Caribbean dishes from Caribbean friends. When I tell you, they have done an incredible job at blending the flavors across the continent and the West Indies. The artwork in the room is intriguing and eye-catching, the servers and hosts greeted us with smiles and jovial expressions. Our server Taryn was super polite and attentive, and the food was delicious. Honestly amazing. The Motherland gives west African and West Indies tastes, whereas the Trad is more of a typical West African plate you would have at a wedding. The Golden is a good blend between the Motherland and the Trad.

I’ve been to the location at POST and wanted to check out the restaurant location. The location looked great and the food was great. We had the golden bowl and the black star bowl as well as the polo club suya skewers. The skewers were probably my favorite. Very flavorful with a slight kick. The golden bowl also was great with the flavor combinations. We had the house plantain bread for dessert which I would definitely recommend as well.

WOW! Absolutely loved our lunch time experience. Food was fresh, flavors felt like home. We picked 2 different currys - motherland (w green rice) + black star. Both paired beautifully. Veggies were fresh, plantains fresh fried, rice was out of this world.

This place is just an amazing, authentic experience in the middle of hot zone in Montrose. It’s just an upscale game of flavors, very affordable tho. You get the strong meat taste embedded in nice curry sauce and supported with well prepared rice. Drinks are good, and they well with the food. Service is quite on point and very kind. Overall you get to enjoy intense delicious flavors from West Africa and experience something authentic. Outdoor sitting is highly recommended! Enjoy.

My new favorite place. The staff is warm and friendly from the moment you walk in the door. Everyone smiles and greets you. The servers are knowledgeable and go above and beyond to make sure your experience is great, from friendly service to great suggestions. And the food is AMAZING. So tasty and fresh. Everything I’ve had is five star! The atmosphere is beautiful and the interior is so inviting. It’s always full of beautiful black people which is a nice change of pace in Montrose.

I love love love this place! My first experiences with ChopNBlok is when they opened a spot in The Post a few years ago and I just recently made it to their expanded location. Everything was excellent! The food is full of flavor and the service was fast and polite. They are not skimpy with the alcohol in the cocktails either. I can't wait to go back and try some new dishes. I was there on a week night and valet parking was free. Not sure of the weekend situation. This is a great place for a date night or a nice get together with friends

This restaurant is so special. While on a work trip, I found this gem, and had to go there for dinner two days in a row! The food, ambiance, and service were top-notch. I love that everything is so intentionally crafted and that the food is nutritious and delicious. It’s also great for those who are gluten free and/or vegan/vegetarians. I’ll fly to Houston just to eat at this restaurant. It’s really that good!

This was a truly fantastic experience. The vibes of the restaurant when you walk in were warm and inviting and the staff was incredibly friendly. I ordered the Golden which was a jambalaya jollof rice with a curry, blackened chicken, and vegetables. We also ordered their plantain chips and greens dip but they were out. The server was incredible and comped our second choice appetizer, the meat pies, even though we assured her it wasn’t necessary. The meat pies were to die for, the golden was delightfully rich and spicy without being heavy, and their refreshers were amazing. I can’t wait to come back
