Tables are not cleaned after all. It gets busy with a line formed around the counter. Ordered a mangonada queen and a coctel de fruta sin dulce o chili, fruit only. Just got the watermelon, mango and pineapple. $14 The watermelon looked old and water logged, every piece of it, wasn't so good. The Mango isn't super ripe. Pineapple wasn't so good either. The entire fruit bowl was disappointing. The mangonada queen is so-so. Would likely be better if the mangoes were ripe. $10 minimum to use a credit card. I got a mechanical pencil to sign the credit card receipt, which kept breaking on me to sign and put in the tip and total.

The chicken feet didn't have black beans. The squid had a strong mala flavor and the squid was kind of tough. The tofu/fish pot was okay but it didn't have a single vegetable. The noodles dish was meh. Rice was free. Overall, the food was only okay and with so many other restaurants around, this can be one and done. Weird decor and a single bathroom. Parking in the back.

Regarding Detroit's Shangri-La Chinese Restaurant:…read more I've eaten at this location for years. In fact, I've eaten at previous restaurants at that location even prior to Shangri-La opening there. The food at Shangri-La simply checks the Chinese Food box when I have a taste for it. Today, I decided to have a work lunch there, and sat with my laptop for a while, even after I was finished eating. The service was excellent (in comparison to my usual experience), and so my plan was to take good care of the waitress. I had never seen her before, and assumed her to be new staff. She returned to my table to check in with me at least three times. When waitress brought the bill, the amount seemed to be off. I studied the handwritten bill further, and realized there was a 20% tip added to my bill. This was a quandary for me because the $7 and something gratuity was less than I intended to leave her, but I was incensed with the idea that it had been added without my consent. I explained my concern to her, and she pointed to the desk where the manager (or owner) typically stands and stated that this was the restaurant's policy. Moments later, he arrived at my table and explained that, "some people come and they don't tip." His arrogant tone was odd to me because this person has seen me at least once every several months for years. I explained to him that this plan of his is a bad idea, but he didn't appear to care about my position. He mentioned that the policy is printed on the menu, however I ordered without looking at the menu. But, what was most disgusting was his response, "if you can't afford to pay a tip, you shouldn't come out to eat." His facial expression and body language exhibited years of old racial animosity and anxiety. I should mention, just prior to my leaving, a Black couple left the restaurant after disputing an issue with the same manager/owner. The subject of the dispute was not clear, but I did hear the gentleman explaining that he had been eating at this location, "for years," and didn't like how something "was handled." Finally, I come here to Yelp and survey the comments before writing my own, and here is another Black customer, from Los Angeles, protesting the manager/owner, "following her out to her car over a tip." So, there's the secondary issue on this policy. Not only are there folks who might not be able to afford a tip at any given time, but there is the right of customers to determine what their tip should be based upon the service they perceive the server provided. In my case, I tipped the waitress above and added gratuity. I needed for her to be clear that my concern had nothing to do with her. But, the manager/owner person left a horrible taste in my mouth - so much so that I threw my unhealthy leftovers in the garbage. Never again. This man's (unintelligent and likely racist) assumption that I could not "afford to tip" will be his last opportunity to be in conversation with me. I won't be back.

Came here for breakfast and it def hit the spot. I got the Greek breakfast sandwich: the lamb was…read morejuicy, the eggs were well prepared, and they both were complemented by the tomato and the feta. The pita which encased all of this goodness was a revelation: crispy on the outside, but soft and pliable. I also got the Greek donuts. Omg. When fresh out the kitchen they are outstanding. They are crunchy outside and chewy soft inside. The texture was reminiscent of the malasadas I grew up on in Hawaii. Also not overly sweet, which I appreciated. I opted for the standard sweet sauce, but I left wanting to try all the toppings. This place is nuts. My only regret is that I left town and couldn't try lunch. Also, service was great: prompt and very friendly.

I'd def come back again to try their other drinks.

Unfortunately, they didn't have the tapioca pearls when I went which was in the late evening. But I tried the grape flavored fruit tea with some passion fruit popping boba and it was pretty good.

The staff are fantastic, friendly, and very skilled at their jobs. Beverages were refilled, we were checked in with, and felt taken care of. The real star of the show was the food. I came with two of my sons, and we all really enjoyed our ramen bowls. I had the pork belly tonkatsu, one of my sons had the catfish tonkatsu, and the other had the red curry. I absolutely recommend this restaurant, and will be returning very soon!

My husband and I met friends here for dinner. Johnny Noodle King is located on Fort Street just…read moreoutside of Downtown Detroit on the way to Southwest Detroit. Hubby and I laughed at how many times we zipped past the restaurant without noticing it. My husband and I both ordered the Major Tom Khatsu, which has a coconut chicken broth base. The chicken katsu pieces were the perfect level of crispy without being heavily breaded. There was also a nice little kick to the dish, which made it so, so yummy. Our friends got the Shoyu ramen with pork belly, and the Corned Beef ramen. The Shoyu dish seemed to be more enjoyable. Though we stuck with water, cans of Faygo pop seemed to be the drink offerings - other than alcoholic beverages. Areas for improvement include the waiting. Johnny Noodle King is a small place, with a main dining area and then what seems to be a bar area attached. We initially waited by the door for our table along with another small group (we were a party of four). We were then asked to go to the bar area to wait so that it would clear the door, but found it interesting how we were asked to move but not the other group. Also, we were standing away from the doormat we were not obstructing anyone's movements. The wait was long, and we asked if we could order food to the bar area (as opposed to waiting for a table). We were told 'no', yet there was a table full of patrons who were eating. There was no notification system, so our friend had to keep going to the front to see if our table was ready. Don't get me wrong; 'hooray' to Johnny Noodle King for having such great business volume. However, they need a way to manage it so that people will not be put off. Once we were seated, we did have good service from our waitstaff, and the food was very good. My husband and I plan to return to explore more of the menu. Hopefully, we can pick a time of day when waiting won't be such a big issue.
