Loopy’s Eatery, once a food truck driving around Arlington, is now a restaurant in the Bradlick Shopping Center.

As soon as we stepped in, we were greeted by one of the employees. We ordered our food fairly quickly since the restaurant was empty. While ordering our food, the man behind the register was very helpful and open to our questions.

The restaurant also appeared to be following Covid guidelines, with employees wearing masks and gloves and having a protective shield around the register.

As we made our way to sit we noticed the restaurant had a very modern feel to it and was completely spotless. I, however, was concerned by the distance of the seats. If the restaurant were to get packed, they should space out their seats at least 6 feet apart.

The restaurant provides Asian fusion food, and the menu was fairly simple. You select a main entree with your choice of protein, sauce and an extra. All entrees come with vegetables or salad on the side.There also are specials, appetizers, drinks and a Family Bundle.

I ordered a shrimp taco with teriyaki sauce ,and Kim Bop sushi to share for two. We only waited five minutes until our order arrived. Noticing background music, I turned toward the cash register to find a television displayed next to the menu, playing modern but clean songs from a Spotify playlist.

My order came with three softshell tacos, a side of chips, sauce and a lime. I appreciate the sauce on the side, so that I can control the amount I want to put based on personal preference. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and paired well with the pico de gallo, lettuce and cheese. The lime on the side added that extra level of flavor. For the taco shell, I wish we had a choice between hardshell and soft tacos. In the sushi, the beef was cooked well and was especially complemented by the spicy mayo. However, the sushi didn’t come with chopsticks and the slices were really thick instead of their traditional size.

In my opinion, this restaurant took Asian fusion food and gave it a modern twist through their burritos and tacos. At the same time, they still maintain many of their traditional foods. If I could come back here, I would definitely want to try the Ramen and Kimbop, one of their special entrees.

If you’re interested in trying out Loopy’s, the restaurant is open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. from Monday to Saturday. They also offer delivery.
