Two Tilia vets plan to open Spanish restaurant in former Noodles & Co. in Minnetonka Chicken- and pork-centric Toma Mojo Grill will focus on Spanish and Portuguese fare. April 6, 2021 1:00am Text size Copy shortlink:
There s a reason why Paul Backer and Michael Knox have leased space in a Minnetonka strip mall for their new restaurant, Toma Mojo Grill (12977 Ridgedale Dr.). We see a decent-sized void of independent restaurants in Minnetonka and Plymouth, said Backer. There s a path to having a dedicated community following outside of Minneapolis.
The restaurant will celebrate Spanish and Portuguese culinary traditions, funneling roast chicken and roast pork (and vegan sausages) into sandwiches, plates and family-style platters and pairing them with sauces and side dishes.
