The last time I had Ajisen Ramen was in Shanghai many many years ago. I happened to find the place…read morewhile I was looking for new places in Windsor and had to cross the border and give it a try. Yes, I took the Detroit Tunnel just to come and enjoy the food. The interior is your typical Asian restaurant, tables on the left side and booths on the right. I went with the pork original, fried shrimp and chicken Karaage. The broth was awesome, had that deep bone flavor, seasoned perfectly and hit the spot perfectly!! I would definitely recommend the pork original if you are new to the place. I'll be back to try other ramen flavors. I couldn't give them five stars because of the appetizers that I got. The fried shrimp was decent, the chicken karaage was decent as well, but the last one I was eating was undercooked... that experience just turned the experience down few notches. $42 before tip, 15% tip, toll in and out of USA/Canada, yes expensive meal trip, but it was worth it!

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.

I got the robata sampler: some notable standouts were: -the triggerfish jerky: thin cut and with a hint of sweetness, the fish flavor was delicate and tasty. It reminded me a little of the dried cuttlefish I ate growing up in Hawaii, but a much more refined version - chicken meatball: this was juicy, hearty, and had great flavor. The teriyaki sauce was flavorful without being too sweet - shrimps: these were expertly grilled. They were tender inside, and had a nice hint of charcoal flavor from the grilling - pork belly: this was a great cut of meat. Very decadent and rich, with lots of umami from marinating before grilling We also got some appetizers that were quite serviceable. Overall I'd give this place a 4.5 stars if I could.

We started with chicken karaage bites and calamari. Both had delicious dipping sauces and were nicely fried. Both apps came out very quickly and were hot. I'd give the apps a 4/5. Everyone really enjoyed the udon noodles, most of us got miso butter pan fried. This meal was super flavorful and had a lot of the miso butter! The noodles were perfectly cooked and there were a lot of the extras added on top for additional flavors. The ginger tori soup was also enjoyed. The servers were on top of it, bringing us water carafes and everything we needed quickly. The restaurant is low lit which created a nice vibe. Obsessed with the stained glass entryway! The restaurant is located in the beautiful area of Corktown with the Grand Central Station just steps away, giving you something to do while you wait for your table. Typically very easy to find parking.

However, when you start asking questions, you will discover that they also serve Ramen. At the time, it was not super busy and the dining area was comfortable.

Again, the food tasted amazing. I got the combo which allowed you to get an appetizer and Ramen. The appetizer was pork buns and it was really good. Also, the Ramen was excellent. Service: The service was good. Nothing exceptional to note in this area. Overall, the food was good. The dining area was clean. I will probably return and I recommend you do the same.
