I had the pork chop cooked medium well with broccolini. The chop was moist and flavorful with an apple/raisin sauce. Very good. Broccolini was fresh and crisp. I also had the Red Head cocktail; much like a Cosmopolitan. Very good with just enough vodka. Topped it off with brownie sundae. Definitely will be back. Highly recommended.

Barely average food from a total piece of garbage owner. The servers were decent. It's too bad the owner talks down to them in front of the customers.

This was our go-to for years and years. Their matchstick fries were mind altering and the quality of the food is always great.

Definitely a 5 STAR meal that we experienced. We took advantage of having a Loyalty Meal after collecting points, and it was worth the wait. Scott, it was a perfect evening!

Love Chew Chew Was a bit taken aback when ck was processed w our credit card and was then told “oh by the way” using a credit card incurs an additional charge —should have perhaps been told that prior to taking the payment via credit card

Super food and innovative. Spot on with everything. We had 2 appetizers, salad, 3 drinks (happy Hour), two dinners and two desserts. Very reasonable. Super clean. Can't go wrong here.

Dinner was excellent, as were the cocktails. All employees are friendly and well informed and the overall ambiance is comfortable and inviting. I have been many times for their wonderful Happy Hour but this was the first time for a full dinner . I was certainly impressed and will be back!

First time here and it was fantastic. Host gave us a great table because it was our first time - nice touch. Our server, Trinity, was the best. Very attentive and personable. We were joking around and giving each other a hard time by the end of the meal. We had oysters (amazing!) and firecrackers shrimp (good but not great), scallops w/risotto (scallops were huge & cooked perfectly), and the chimichurri steak (very good!). We'll be back!

The special Mardi Gras menu featured blackened red fish, which has been hard to come by locally in recent years. It was beautifully prepared over a bed of collard greens, along with little red beans and rice. All flavors were perfectly balanced. Such a treat!

When I made my reservation at Choo Choo's I hadn't realized it was Restaurant Week. They had a special menu for Restaurant Week. We ordered one of their fix price four course meals. We were blown away how delicious each one of those courses were. They were items we have never tried before. Each course was a standalone gastronomical the light. Together they were way beyond our wildest expectations. I had planned to go on a Friday because I love their fresh trout, so that is one of the meals we ordered. It was as outstanding as I have always experienced. I substituted one of the vegetables and there was no question about that. Their bread is even better than I remember it. I love their herbed soft butter. I could make a whole meal out of just that bread. We had invited two guests as a thank you and they both ordered the half chicken dinner. They thought it was one of the best chicken dinners they had anywhere . It was juicy and tender and had a nice sauce. It was so ample they were able to take some home too. If you haven't been to Chew Chew it's on a quiet unassuming street in downtown Riverside. There is sufficient parking in the parking lots nearby or directly on the street in front. We usually make a reservation. Scott, the owner, always does a wonderful job. He is there to greet you, and he is on site supervising that everything is going wonderfully. And it is. It's a good value and a great place for a delicious meal. There are even different specials on different nights. There is a board at the entryway listing the specials for the day. Scott had fresh oysters and mussels appetizers on Friday. So treat yourself and come down to Historic Riverside for a memorable meal in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. You'll be glad you did and you will make Chew Chew your Go To place in Riverside.

The Restuartant week special was delicious. Perfectly sized portions that came hot and quick. The Martinis are the best around. They are ice cold, and the rim rubbed with lemon rind definitely accentuates the lemon through the drink. The bartender is fantastic, and her drinks are consistent. The Chew Chew is a consistent place to go Food, drinks, and serve always top shelf.
