So, Kengo Kato (Papa Kato's son) has ventured into, what I would call, "fast food?" So it would…read moreseem. And, as you should expect, the results are excellent! Looking for Japanese fried chicken (Karaage) in Downtown Toledo at 11:30 pm? THIS is where you'll find it. And it's good. Japanese fried chicken is a lot like American fried chicken, but the batter is a little different. The dipping sauces are similar to American sauces, but, they are a little different. Different is good. You can get said chicken in the form of wings, chunks, 1/2 a bird, or, in a donburi bowl. The menu also has some American (fries, coleslaw) and Asian (kimchi, edamame) sides. Mochi for dessert? You bet. Drinks? Pop, beer, etc, and sake! Service? The service was very friendly, fast, and accurate. Tommy and Sam run the place when the Main Man is elsewhere. They do a great job overseeing the service and the cooking. The atmosphere is similar to Kengo's other places on the same street. Intimate with bare brick walls. Seating is designed more for quick service and higher throughput. There are a few tables, but most people sit at one of two bars. Great music (Beastie boys and Tupac playing overhead, but not too loud). 4 stars for the food, and one more for being open late! 5 stars!

I honestly had to ask around because bbq is not my thing. Called, no answer. Look online, no menu since 2023. Figured big sis would give up n go to Deets or someplace. Nope. They went over there. First thing she says when she calls me is how rude one of the folks behind the counter was. Im on break! She barked. Said she sounded like our Grandma and u just dont know. The man and I added some things for ourselves. Half slab ribs, baked beans, pulled pork, polish sausage, hot wings. I think all that was like $35 so a steal til the man tries to bite into the ribs and basically got all bone lol. Baked beans tasted like they came from a can. Forgot about the fried catfish. Now that was good n crispy. Those hot wings had me sweating like I like to so cant complain on them. Had nerve to give me hot sauce with them hot ass things lol. Sis n bro n law said basically the same. Sauce was ok and you better add some on the side because not much on there. I hear they used to have black eye peas etc but no more. It was worth $80 for 4 folks but this is no We b ribs or anything like the old school bbq we grew up on. Oh, lose another star for not answering so big sis had no idea they only take straight cash homie. She had to leave n go find an atm. Just have a basic FB page with basic info and u would be good for 2026

I ordered the…read morecurry goat (my personal favorite) with rice and peas (beans) with green beans, the oxtails with cabbage, the red snapper with cabbage, and the jerk chicken with rice and peas. Wow. I was very satisfied with all of these meals. Plenty in portions, tender meat (a couple of oxtails were majority fat) but the flavoring of the curry and sauces and seasonings were perfect (and spicy ofc!). The jerk chicken is probably the spiciest. I wouldn't say the curry goat or oxtails aren't that spicy. The red snapper had a good amount of spice. It also had a lot of bones. So prepare for that & be careful. This location only offers pick up orders inside of a carry-out so the process was efficient, organized, straightforward and easy. Amazing dinners!

For reference, this is a mainly carryout no frills restaurant. There were, however, a number of people waiting on takeout tonight. The cashier specialist who also assisted with food orders was very nice and responsive. She apologized that prices had risen more than reflected on the online menu.., No surprise! I picked up our carryout order tonight in torrential rains, but that didn't influence my review as I had already been soaked in the crazy weather we've had in the Toledo, Ohio/Bedford MI area in the last couple of days. Upon unpacking everything, we vhad a large hummus, a large gyro sub, and a large chicken shawarma entree with rice and tszaziki sauce on the side. The hummus with extra pita bread was good. Without the pita bread, it was too salty for my taste on its own. I'm super sensitive to salt, so keep that in mind, as you may love it! The gyro sub sandwich was a hit! My mom is thrilled to have delicious leftovers. My chicken shawarma entree' was overall good, though a bit salty for my taste. I realize that I'm more sensitive to salt than most, so I would say this was overall good and much better with the pita bread. Check out pictures below... The prices/value are relatively good at this spot. Somehow, for me, it's not crave-worthy, though others in my family feel that it it! I will say that the prices are relatively a good value in our current economy. Definitely check out Wild Wings and Things for carryout!

She was happy with her order, but my sandwich was literally half gristle, fat and bones on loaf bread I could have made better at home. The potato salad seemed to be from the grocery store. We were still in the area so went back and asked for a new sandwich and was first told fine. When got to the counter, was told by the "cook" that I ate the sandwich so he couldn't do anything. I pointed to the lump of gristle, fat and bones (garbage) in the container and he shrugged and basically said I ate the sandwich again - meaning the bread! ...I was surprised - not expecting that, so rather then ramp things up this clown with my girl in the car, we left.....

I was out there the other day and made a mental note to remember it and alas, went for lunch today. I had the Betty's salad with a fried bologna sandwich combo. With a small fountain drink, it was $12 bucks and change. GREAT DEAL! The salad had fresh spinach, bacon, egg, lots of bean sprouts, onion, all the good things Betty's salad should have. The Betty's dressing was great too. The fried bologna... OK, not exactly gourmet, but definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. If this sandwich is on the menu, I have to try it! Their version of this is really great. Your choice of bread (sour dough, white, rye, wheat, etc). It comes with lots of bologna and cheese with your choice of toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, etc). Not as great as G & R Tavern in Waldo (seriously, fried bologna or sandwich spread lovers - you need to go), but a very generous, well-made sandwich. This will probably be my go-to every time I go back. The place is clean, the portions are generous, and the food is really good. Looking forward to return visits!
