Hostess said it would be a 15-20 minute wait. Understandable bc it was a Saturday night. But…read moreclearly that is just a line given because the hostess didn't even remain at the desk- she went to the bar and sat down and was drinking her drink and staying on her phone. We saw a few tables exit and how would she even know if no one is hosting the stand? She literally had her back to everything. We felt trapped as 15, 20, 30, 45 minutes went by. After an hour we were finally seated. It was that horrible experience of not knowing if we should leave or if we had already invested so much time, surely we would be the next person called? I wish the hostess would've told the truth about the wait. It was only after patrons that came in behind us started to rightfully become upset, suddenly there was a host of people at the stand and tables were getting cleared. After an hour, we were finally seated in the very back of the restaurant and it took another 5 to 7 minutes before someone came over and acknowledged us. The salad bar area where you can make your sauce was missing half of the ingredients and absolutely no attempts were being made to refill the station. Items were left off of our order and we had to ask for them to be brought out. Saw a lot of employees standing around on their phones behind the salad bar station near the bathrooms in the kitchen. There are now far too many AYCE Korean/ Asian BBQ/ hotpot areas in Memphis to go back to a place with bad service and low quality food experiences. We used to proudly bring our out of town friends and family to try this dining experience- but would be too embarrassed to bring them now.

The fried chicken was pretty nice, juicy, flavorful, and one of the better dishes we had. The…read morechicken skewers were good, but the sauce was a little sweet for my taste. The korokke was so-so, and the sauce on it didn't really work for me. The Nagoya Memories ramen came in a generous portion, and to be fair, it wasn't too bad. The flavor itself was okay, but the broth was quite oily for me. It also didn't feel authentic or taste like Japanese ramen. The noodles had a texture more like Chinese thin noodles, and the broth tasted more like a Chinese-style noodle soup. Overall, not a bad meal, but as Japanese food and ramen lovers, the flavors just didn't quite match what we were expecting.

Every time we go it appears to be a social club. This time the hostess was sitting with his friends at the table. The staff is not appropriately dressed. The cleanliness is very poor. Chopsticks wrappers and straw wrappers were all over the floor. The tables were wiped down but still dirty. The only food we enjoyed the most was our sushi which was fresh and well prepared. The other dishes lack flavor and spice. Management should really consider doing something as I see this place is going down the drain quickly.

Simply put: ramen is an underrated food. When it's classed up and prepared appropriately, you'll say, "THIS is ramen?!" And I'd say, "Welcome to Ramen Lovers, table for eternity?" At Good Fortune, order the wings and get you some ramen. You'll be treated with grace and kindness. Get in line to wait. It's worth it. Do.not.leave.without.ordering.wings.

We had the coconut curry broth which was a lite curry style but the winner here was the super crunchy wings in a ginger garlic sauce. Also a fav was their dumplings - simply to die for. Their specialty drinks are very creative and delicious- not to be missed. I would go as far to say this is more of a busy drinking place with excellent small plates. Service is a little sluggish for this always full spot so come early and be prepared to wait, walk-in's only. No reservations. Owners are a cute married couple; the husband is Mexican and the wife is Japanese and the creative mind behind the menu. Authentic fare, truly delicious

Now... for the establishment itself...they are definitely in need of interior and exterior upgrades! They're reasonably priced but they might need to check how they store food because they served us SPOILED SHRIMP! The hostess passed out 6 menus to a party of 20 as if they didn't have any extra menus and we needed to share. I went right up there to the front and picked up a stack of menus that was just sitting there. Most of the people (owners) DO NOT speak English! This is a BIG problem for me! I'ma need one of y'all to be able to communicate with your customers. Again, Thank God for Tina, who is AA.... and lastly, let me give my shout out to the DJ. When he finally showed up, after we were originally told that he would be there by 5pm, he did his thang too! Overall, we had a GREAT TIME because we made it a great time but we won't be going back!
